Lama Abou Daher

Life Coach

Lama Abou Daher is an accredited Life Coach, certified DISC practitioner, and founder of the Duality Framework - a coaching model focused on expanding capacity and restoring access to underused personal traits, in order to achieve success. She specialises in mindset and self-leadership, helping high-functioning individuals move from internal friction to sustainable performance.

With a background in high-performance education, leadership, mentoring and coaching, Lama works with ambitious professionals who appear successful externally but experience inconsistency, pressure, or internal conflict behind the scenes. Her work focuses on helping clients understand why certain traits feel accessible in some environments but blocked in others, and how to intentionally rebuild that access.

Before becoming a coach, Lama spent over a decade in education, working with diverse individuals across all age groups. Despite her professional success, she experienced burnout, unresolved personal challenges, and the hidden cost of maintaining high standards without sustainable internal systems. Known since her teens as “The Walking Contradiction,” she spent years trying to fix perceived flaws before realising that lasting change comes not from self-rejection, but from self-integration.

Today, her work integrates principles from behavioural psychology, identity-based change, performance coaching, habit science, and six additional evidence-based disciplines within her Duality Framework. Rather than focusing on motivation alone, she helps clients build practical systems, strengthen behavioural access, and expand their capacity through habits and mindset shifts.

Whether supporting a perfectionist navigating pressure, a high achiever rebuilding confidence, or a leader seeking emotional range without sacrificing standards, Lama’s approach is both structured and deeply human. Her coaching is designed not just to achieve goals, but to build transferable skills that improve how clients operate long after the coaching ends.

At the core of her philosophy is a simple belief: people rarely lack the qualities they need - they often lack consistent access to them. By helping clients expand that access, she helps them create change that is both measurable and lasting.
