Partnering Together

Leadership Coaching

As a coach, my role is to partner with you in setting personal and/or professional goals and to support you in working towards your desired outcomes—providing a safe and uplifting space for reflection and exploration.

Coaching sessions can cover any topic including:
— burnout
— people pleasing, perfectionism, setting boundaries
— decision-making
— self-compassion
— personal growth
— exploring creative pursuits
— mental/emotional/physical well-being
— career goals
— exploring vision and values
— navigating change and transitions
— building resilience
— creating work-life balance
— time management
— conflict management
— workplace challenges
— having difficult conversations

I specialize in leadership coaching for:
— leaders who are sick and tired of not being seen, heard, respected, and acknowledged for their contributions and expertise.
— leaders who have big goals (professional and/or personal) but feel overwhelmed and unsure of how to reach them.
— leaders who feel stuck and know that they need to make a change.

“Leadership is an action, not a position.” — Donald McGannon

Some of the words my clients have used to describe me and my sessions are:
safe, calm, grounding, professional, playful, empowering, focused, giving space, ‘surfing the wave’, supportive, more helpful than therapy, magical, unexpected, non-judgemental, able to share things never shared before, eye-opening, connected, present, and genuine.

Why coaching?
Effective leadership coaching is a transformative process—giving you a safe space and some much-needed time to pause all other responsibilities in order to intentionally process, explore, and reflect on how you want to move forward in your career or personal life. In our time together, you will be able to identify your strengths and areas for growth, and create a plan for the necessary action steps that need to be taken to reach your desired outcomes. I will support you in this through non-directive coaching; that is, instead of telling you what to do or prescribing a general methodology, we will take your own lived experiences and goals, and work closely together so that you will be empowered to find your own answers. Only then can these solutions align with your own vision and values, leading to a more meaningful, fulfilling, and sustainable life.

When I see people stand fully in their truth, or when I see someone fall down, get back up, and say, ‘Damn. That really hurt, but this is important to me and I’m going in again’—my gut reaction is, ‘What a badass.’

— Brené Brown

Speaking & Storytelling

Imagine walking into any social setting or meeting ready to share your insights, story, or presentation without feeling frozen or overwhelmed.

It’s possible!

I specialize in accelerating speaking confidence for introverted leaders who aim to use storytelling to promote awareness and action.

My coaching is for leaders who are ready to stop feeling:
— Unsure of how to effectively use storytelling when speaking
— Lost in how to thread purpose throughout a presentation
— Frazzled or frozen when put on the spot
— Self-conscious about what to do with your body

…and are ready to:
— Actually enjoy sharing stories and giving presentations!
— Distill complex data into meaningful, everyday language
— Inspire action in others
— Feel seen and heard
— Advocate for yourself
— Think clearly on the spot
— Speak up with confidence
— Confidently express ideas during discussions/meetings
— Feel like yourself in front of others
— Influence change and make a difference
— Effectively manage public speaking nerves, stress, and anxiety

My one-to-one coaching sessions focus on empowering leaders to engage in meaningful conversations, to express their thoughts with confidence, and to share their ideas and findings clearly and effectively across a variety of social settings. Through a series of practical exercises and tools tailored to your needs, you will develop strong speaking and storytelling skills and gather valuable techniques to build self-awareness, manage stress and anxiety, engage with diverse audiences, and articulate your thoughts and ideas in a way that feels comfortable in your body and real to who you are—not through robotic actions or catchphrases that make you feel stiff or as though you’re acting.

And of course, you will also gain instant feedback, supportive and constructive guidance, motivation, and accountability.

Most importantly, my approach acknowledges the distinct strengths of introverts while helping them to develop a natural communication style that resonates with audiences. So, whether you’re navigating professional environments or personal interactions, our (fun) sessions together will enable you to approach conversations, knowledge-sharing, and storytelling with greater ease and assertiveness. Be seen. Be heard. Be you.

what about this theory. the fear of not
being enough. and the fear of being
‘too much.’ are exactly the same fear.
the fear of being you.
