Why Coaching

Leadership can be lonely.

You’re navigating institutional pressures, systemic barriers, and the weight of making decisions that affect real people’s lives. It’s easy to feel caught between your values and your role or to wonder if you’re making the impact you hoped for.

You don’t have to do it alone. Coaching provides a confidential space to think deeply, plan strategically, and lead with both courage and care.

Who I Coach

I primarily coach:

Higher education leaders, including department chairs, deans, provosts, and executive directors.

Social impact nonprofit leaders, including executives and program directors committed to justice and care.

Many of my clients are women of color in middle and senior leadership, seeking to advance their careers without compromising integrity, wellbeing, or purpose.

Coaching Focus Areas

Through coaching, you will:

  • Lead with integrity, even when institutional models are scarce

  • Recover from toxic or unsustainable environments

  • Build inclusive, thriving teams that retain talented colleagues

  • Find balance in workload and expectations to avoid burnout

  • Gain clarity in charting a career path aligned with your values

  • Strengthen confidence, trust, and resilience in your leadership

What Coaching Looks Like

The 10-Session Leadership Intensive

  • Ten (10) 50-minute sessions over Zoom or phone, spread across 9–12 months

  • Support between sessions, including:

    • Document review and feedback (memos, policies, communications)

    • Brief check-in calls as needed

    • Email/text availability during business hours

In addition to outcomes like improved team retention, clarity in decision-making, and reduced burnout, many clients track their growth by:
