CONGRUENCY

NO GAP When who you are and how you lead finally match. Most people think leadership is about control.Clear direction. Strong presence. Consistent output. But real leadership—the kind that doesn’t burn you out or hollow you out—comes from something deeper. Congruency The invisible alignment between who you are on the insideand how you show up on the outside. When that gap is wide, you can feel it: And it’s exhausting. I know, because I’ve lived… Read More »CONGRUENCY

EXPRESSION

TRUTH THAT’S HEARD Your voice isn’t missing. It’s just buried under noise. There’s a moment I see in nearly every client I work with.They’ve done the work. Found their clarity. Reconnected with purpose.And yet… “Why does it still feel like people don’t get me?” Because clarity alone isn’t enough.If it stays locked inside, it doesn’t serve. That’s where expression comes in. This part of the journey is where your truth becomes transmission.Where what you feel… Read More »EXPRESSION

identity

YOU, UNFILTERED When your identity isn’t yours, your success won’t feel like yours either. I used to think I was the roles I played.The resume. The titles. The accomplishments. In corporate life, that worked—for a while.You get good at reading the room, being who they want, playing the part. But eventually the part starts to wear thin.Not because it’s wrong.Because it’s not yours. Identity, for many high-performers, becomes armor.It looks like confidence.It feels like control.But… Read More »identity

CLARITY

It’s not OPTIONAL — IT’S THE FOUNDATION Why leaders who don’t know themselves can’t lead others clearly. For years, I thought I needed the next step.The better plan.The right strategy.More doing. More proving. But I wasn’t stuck because I lacked action.I was stuck because I had lost contact with meaning.I had forgotten why I was doing any of it in the first place. Not in my head—I could explain the vision.But in my body, in… Read More »CLARITY

The Alignment Journey

Strategy without self is just performance And performance without alignment eventually breaks. I’ve coached entrepreneurs and women in leadership for years—founders, executives, visionaries.Brilliant, driven, deeply interesting people. But the most common sentence I hear isn’t about goals.It’s this: “Something feels off—and I can’t explain why.” Often, they have everything they thought they wanted.But not all of it feels true anymore. Maybe that’s you too. You’ve built something impressive.But somewhere along the way, you got further… Read More »The Alignment Journey

Why This Work Feels Different

  • by

Most coaching gives you advice.Mine helps you hear yourself. The truth is: You don’t need more strategies. You don’t need someone to tell you what to do.

I show up with presence. I listen—fully. I meet you exactly where… Read More »Why This Work Feels Different

clean up your mess

clean up your mess

  • by

I received a message from my coach, Rich Litvin, the other day, and it really resonated with me. I believe this is an important leadership insight: often, when people get defensive and make excuses, it stems from an underlying insecurity. How do you handle this when it happens in your team? And how do you deal with it when you catch yourself doing the same? My biggest takeaway from this message is that it’s okay… Read More »clean up your mess

distraction of self worth

  • by

I had a conversation the other day about distraction. I personally went off most social media in the last month. Since I have been traveling for most of my time for the last 10 years, I love to stay in contact and read about my friends’ updates as well as posting my own. Two things changed over the last years. Somehow my news feeds consist mostly of reposts written by people I don’t know, suggested… Read More »distraction of self worth

everything you want

the struggle of having everything you want

does more mean happier? There used to be a time when I had more stuff than I could possibly use. That didn’t happen accidentally but served two needs of mine (at least I thought so). On the one hand I wished to own things that gave me joy and on the other hand I wanted to look successful to others. I thought: once I proofed to the world (and myself) that I had success I… Read More »the struggle of having everything you want
