Mansueta™ | Strategic Operations & Chief of Staff for Founders
About Me - My Story. MY Mission.
The Restless Beginning
I’ve always known I was gifted in many things — and that gift carried tension. I never settled easily into one box. Once I had mastered a role, the spark dimmed, and I found myself restless again.
I didn’t want to fill hours.
I wanted to make them count.
That restlessness wasn’t dissatisfaction — it was discernment. A quiet insistence that time, energy, and attention are far too precious to be spent without intention.
Planting the Seed
That instinct became the foundation of my work.
I built my practice around my strengths — an organised mind, a strategic instinct, and a natural ability to see how moving parts fit together — and around a simple conviction: time is sacred.
My mission has always been the same:
to give people their time back — not just to be more productive, but to focus on what truly matters: their vision, their responsibility, and the people entrusted to them.
The Meaning of My Name
Mansueta comes from Latin, meaning gentle or meek — not weakness, but quiet strength. Patience. A steady presence.
These are the qualities I bring into every working relationship: calm in complexity, steadiness under pressure, and the discipline to carry responsibility without noise.
Professional Foundation
With a background in Finance and Accounting, I bring analytical rigour alongside organisational clarity. This allows me to support founders not only operationally, but also in making informed, grounded decisions — particularly where structure, priorities, and financial clarity intersect.
The Turning Point
Then life interrupted everything.
A doctor’s words — “It’s cancer” — stopped time.
In that moment, urgency sharpened and excess fell away. What mattered became unmistakably clear.
I refused the role of victim. Instead, I recognised an invitation: to live and work with greater intention. Challenges are not punishments — they refine us, strengthen what is essential, and deepen our capacity to serve well.
A Deeper Purpose
That experience didn’t end my work — it reshaped it.
Today, I work as a strategic operations partner and fractional Chief of Staff, supporting founders who carry more than most people ever see. The work is still practical and hands-on, but it is anchored in stewardship, discretion, and trust.
My role is to create space — space for clearer thinking, better decisions, and sustained leadership — while I take responsibility for the details with care and diligence.
The Core of the Work
This isn’t just administration.
It is stewardship.
It is partnership.
It is time redeemed.
Beyond Client Work
Alongside my client work, I write and research on identity, responsibility, and long-term formation.
I am the author of Identity: Who God Made Me to Be, a devotional for children, and Marriage Myths Busted, an exploration of how cultural narratives subtly distort God’s design for marriage.
This work also led to Kids Identity Quest — a growing body of resources dedicated to helping children form a strong sense of identity before the world attempts to rename them.
