Is Executive Coaching with Me Right for You?

You’re a woman in senior leadership who spends 10-12 hours a day putting out fires, sitting in back-to-back meetings, and trying to hold your team—and yourself—together. 

You start your day before the sun comes up, already thinking about the difficult conversation you don't want to have, or the performance issue you don’t have time to address. You skip breakfast, open your laptop, and dive straight into a sea of emails, your 3rd cup of coffee in hand, while your partner or your kids try to talk to you—their voices fading into background noise as you mumble responses without looking up.

By noon, you’ve fielded two interpersonal emergencies among colleagues and corrected an error in another leader’s report so it won't reflect poorly on your department. You’re called "resilient," “collaborative,” and “calm under pressure,” but you're collapsing under the weight of everyone’s expectations—jaw tight, shoulders tense, stomach in knots.

You give everything you’ve got to your team and fellow leaders—trying to be helpful, trying to keep the peace, trying not to come across as too vague or too direct or too impersonal or too emotional. You aspire to bring people together with your authentic leadership, but instead communication breaks down all around you, and it’s reached a critical point in your team - blowups in meetings, unresolved conflict driving gossip and resignations, and missed deadlines.

You've reached the point where you are exhausted - physically, emotionally, mentally, even spiritually. Your career - and your capacity for joy - are on the line, and the last thing you want is another complicated model or superficial training on the right words to say. 

And while you’ve done the leadership programs, read the books, and maybe even worked with a coach or therapist—you’re still caught in patterns that leave you exhausted and second-guessing yourself.

Maybe these patterns are familiar:

• Saying Yes when you want to say No, because it seems easier than dealing with your colleague's disappointment.

• Spending more time addressing your employees' emotions than your own, thinking, "I'll take care of myself later."
  
  
• Holding back from seeking promotions, believing the higher your title becomes, the greater your personal sacrifice as well, and you're already stretched too thin.
  
  
• Feeling drained from pressure to please, or the constant conflict between work teams that you don't know how to resolve.
  
  
• Erupting and losing control or Staying quiet to avoid conflict—even when something really matters to you.

You don't just want to build your confidence, your executive presence, or your emotional intelligence. You want to understand - and transform - what's really driving the patterns, so you can reclaim your energy, strengthen your relationships, thrive in your career, and stop stressing about every difficult conversation.
