AU Partnership are experts in the challenges of sudden wealth.
Whether you've received a large inheritance, sold a successful business, signed a major contract or won the lottery, sudden wealth comes with amazing opportunities as well as some unexpected challenges.
Many people enjoy the first exuberant feelings that come with a windfall. But, once the newness has worn off, these excited feelings can be replaced with feelings of stress and anxiety, or a loss of a sense of purpose. In addition, a financial windfall can act as an accelerant, adding fuel to the flames of any pre-existing wellbeing or mental health issues.
AU Partnership programmes are designed by a team of experienced coaches, counsellors and well-being experts. We help you unpack the challenges, decisions, feelings and overwhelm that sudden wealth can trigger, and build bespoke support programs to enable you to thrive in your newfound wealth.
If you or a loved one is dealing with the ramifications of sudden wealth, please call Rachel on +44 (0)7764 577388 or get in touch to find out how we can help.

Volker Ballueder
Coach
Originally from Germany, Volker moved to the UK over 25 years ago to complete his studies and went on to build a successful career working in business.
Over two decades, he supported organisations through growth, pressure, and constant change. During this time, he became increasingly drawn to the human side of these experiences—how people cope, adapt, and often struggle beneath the surface.
This led him to focus more on working directly with individuals, supporting them through the kinds of challenges many of us face at different points in life. Today, as a life coach, Volker helps people navigate stress, burnout, life transitions, relationship challenges, and moments where they feel stuck or unsure of their direction.
With over 10 years of coaching experience and a strong foundation in psychology, mindfulness, and personal development, Volker brings both practical insight and deep empathy to his work. He creates a calm, supportive space where people can pause, reflect, and begin to make sense of what’s going on for them—without pressure or judgement.
Volker believes that change doesn’t have to be overwhelming. By building awareness, reconnecting with what matters, and taking small, meaningful steps, people can regain a sense of clarity, confidence, and control in their lives.
Clients often leave conversations with Volker feeling lighter, more grounded, and better equipped to move forward—whatever they may be facing.
