Founder of Unstoppable by Design

I don’t just talk about change.
I’ve lived it.

I am Julie Tague - a public-sector leader, project delivery specialist and founder of Unstoppable by Design.

I help capable women at a turning point cut through competing ideas, create a plan and start moving towards work and a life that fits who they are now.

Authority matters. So does lived experience. I bring both.

Bold does not have to mean humourless.

The work is serious. The process can still be warm, energising and genuinely enjoyable.

Twenty years turning complexity into delivery

My work has always been about helping people move from ambition to action.

I have led complex transformation, challenged senior leaders and held major programmes to account for what they were actually delivering.

I have spent more than two decades working across the public sector, leading change through uncertainty, political shifts, organisational pressure and competing priorities.

My strength is not simply creating a strategy. It is identifying what matters most, spotting what could derail progress and turning complexity into practical delivery.

That is the same discipline I now bring to women building their next chapter.

You may be planning a career move, developing your own business, rebuilding after a major life change or trying to choose between several possible futures. The context is personal. The delivery challenge is familiar.

What I bring to the room

Not more noise. Not endless reflection. Focused challenge and movement.

🎯

Clarity

I help you identify the real issue beneath the noise and decide what deserves your attention now.

🔥

Execution

We turn ideas into practical actions, experiments and decisions that work in real life.

🪞

Honest challenge

I will hold up the mirror, question avoidance and keep you accountable without draining the energy from the work.

I know what rebuilding asks of you

My own path has not been neat or predictable. I have experienced bereavement, single parenthood, identity change and the practical reality of rebuilding a life when the future looks nothing like the one you expected.

I moved forward because standing still was not a realistic option. Not through one dramatic breakthrough, but through repeated decisions, support, experimentation and small moves that gradually created a different life.

If I can rebuild and move forward, I believe others can too.

That does not mean pretending change is easy. It means refusing to accept that the hardest chapter gets to define the rest of the story.

Unstoppable by Design grew from that belief - and from my desire to work directly with women ready to take ownership of what comes next.

Working with me will be bold - but it will not be bleak

I take your ambitions seriously. I do not believe that means every conversation has to feel heavy, corporate or painfully worthy.

You can expect sharp questions, clear priorities and practical accountability. You can also expect warmth, humour, curiosity and someone who wants you to enjoy the life you are building.

  • We will deal with the thing you keep avoiding
  • We will reduce the number of priorities competing for attention
  • We will test ideas rather than debate them forever
  • We will acknowledge progress before racing to the next task
  • We will probably laugh along the way

I built and own this company

Unstoppable by Design is not a corporate programme or a slick coaching method. It is a company I created, coded and continue to build alongside my public-sector career.

I am testing the offer, listening closely to the women I work with and improving it through real experience rather than theoretical claims.

That matters because I am not asking you to take risks I am unwilling to take myself.

I demonstrate by doing. I am building my own next chapter while helping other women build theirs.

You are probably not as stuck as you think you are.

You may need clearer priorities, a more practical plan and someone willing to challenge you when you begin negotiating with your own ambition.
