In a world that feels overwhelming, leadership lessons can show up in unexpected places – even in Legally Blonde. Here’s what Elle Woods teaches us about authenticity, self-trust, integrity, and resilient leadership.
Gratitude, Gently
A gentle reflection on gratitude during Thanksgiving – without pressure, comparison, or clichés. An invitation to notice the small moments that bring meaning, even alongside difficult emotions.
Stop Ghosting. Start Leading.
With Halloween around the corner, it feels timely to talk about ghosts- of a different kind. We all know what ghosting is. Chances are good that you’ve experienced…
Shoot for Better Than Mildly Toxic: Why You Deserve More Than “Good Enough” at Work
Shoot for Better Than Mildly Toxic: Why You Deserve More Than “Good Enough” at Work In a recent leadership coaching session with a client curating his next professional opportunity, I made an observation. I shared with him that he seems to take for granted that every job he has ever had, and any job he may want in the future, has some level of environmental…
The Power of Intention Setting: How to Step Into Fall with Clarity and Purpose
The Power of Intention Setting: How to Step Into Fall with Clarity and Purpose As summer 2025 winds down and the first crisp breezes of fall arrive, many of us feel the tug of transition. Fall is more than just a change of season—it’s a natural reset point, a chance to pause and consider what matters most as we move into the final stretch of…
Are You Coachable? No, really. Are You?
Are you coachable? No really…. are you? My hunch is that most of us will reflexively say yes. But the truth is that many people are not.

But we live in a world where circumstance and context can no…
Making the Leap
Making the Leap: Each year, as I get farther away from my career in law and more deeply entrenched into my “second act” as a coach and entrepreneur, I find myself reflecting on how and why I got here. Everyone’s journey to transformational work is different, but I have an unwavering inquisitiveness that always seems to push me to have a deeper understanding of mine.…
The Healing Power of Coaching
The Healing Power of Coaching: A couple years ago, in discussing my work with my husband, he casually offered this reflection. He said to me: "You're a healer." At the time, I could not hear that. In fact, I fought against it. I argued. I said- I'm NOT a psychologist, therapist, spiritual advisor, psychiatrist, counselor.... and on and on. I remember that conversation well because…
Power Leaks
Power Leaks: As a coach, I relate to my clients as whole, complete, and inherently resourceful. There is nothing “wrong,” and there is nothing to “fix.” And, even the most empowered clients in my practice occasionally get stuck, or swirl, or find themselves unable to move forward with their preferred velocity and momentum. It is during these times when I look for possible power leaks.…
