NEURO-BASED EXECUTIVE COACHING
Overwhelm, burnout, chaos, doubt, imposter syndrome, retaining good talent, trying to ‘do it all’ yourself. Sound familiar? Building a team and business usually means you’re carrying a lot of weight, but going it alone can impact your business. Your expertise and strengths have gotten you this far, but if you want to grow your business and team you’ll have to step into a new pattern of thought, behavior, and actions. As a business leader, it’s never too early to work with an Executive Coach who can help you navigate strategies, purpose alignment, effective leadership, and habits that put you on a path to success. If you’re feeling stuck, let’s discuss!
There’s a reason the most successful executives, business leaders, entrepreneurs, and athletes work with a coach – they help you cut through the chaos and information overwhelm and create clearer paths to success by adding an outside perspective to your solutioning. As I discuss in Leadership Lessons from a Team Captain, having a Coach in your corner helps reduce blind spots, creates accountability, and helps develop strategies that are sustainable. But, not all coaches carry the same perspective or deliver the same results.
What is aN EXECUTIVE COACH
Coaching is a popular topic right now with a rise in emerging coaches across disciplines, which creates a lot of confusion around what a Coach is and how they help business leaders like you. As someone growing your business, making the right investment cannot go under-emphasized. It’s important to work with a Coach who goes beyond just having industry experience and has been trained to properly deliver results through proven frameworks and techniques specific to coaching environments. I have both strengths.
An Executive Coach serves as a guide as you tackle tough challenges and look to gain clarity. It’s someone who understands business acumen as well as psychological principles of how to break through emotional and mental roadblocks. Working with a seasoned, trained Coach can be highly impactful, not just for you as a leader, but for your business and its growth.
HOW I WORK WITH EXECUTIVES
I have been working with business leaders for nearly 18 years, and have led businesses and teams myself for more than 15. I’ve experienced the ups and downs of building and growing a business, and have also been part of industry-leading teams. Needless to say, I know first-hand how challenging finding balance, gaining clarity, and creating a roadmap can be and I believe whole heartedly in the value of a proper sounding board.
My goal in working with clients is to help them unpack the 6 core areas of their business and find greater purpose alignment as a leader building businesses and teams that are healthy and sustainable using neuro-based psychology applications. As your Coach, I work with you through either a custom engagement or one of my signature packages to help you achieve your goals.
What is a Neuro-Based Executive Coach?
As a neuro-based coach, I draw on my certifications, ongoing training, and background in psychology to help clients achieve longer-lasting impacts. This means there is a focus on understanding and rewiring neural pathways that impact thought patterns and behavior.
How am I different? For starters, I deliver passion, empathy, and kindness in every engagement, creating a space where you feel inspired and understood. Beyond this, I am multi-credentialed across several disciplines including business management, executive and leadership development, strategic planning, and neuro-based coaching – a combination of expertise and experience you rarely find. It’s this unique combination that enables me to work seamlessly across goals and needs with business leaders, spanning personal purpose, productivity, business strategy, leadership, and more.
POV: At the end of the day, all circumstances point to the same truth: our brain has patterns that have been wired for years. The good news is, we’re not stuck there. The beauty of neuroplasticity is that we can create new neuro pathways to learn new thought processes and approaches to navigating challenges. That’s what coaching does. Through true partnership, I help leaders break barriers and navigate strategic opportunities.
AREAS OF FOCUS
COACHING FOR EXECUTIVES AND BUSINESS LEADERS
While each engagement is custom-designed like a good suit to meet your goals, my focuses span one-on-one coaching, group coaching, and team workshops. Each Coachee begins with a discovery call to discuss your goals and ensure we’re designing an engagement that meets your goals. A minimum 6 month engagement is required for most first-time Coachees to ensure you are serious about your growth and are ready for the accountability coaching delivers.

Not Sure where to start?
If you’re unsure which area of focus is right for you, you’re in good company. Most first-time Coachees I work with are not sure which area to focus on or how working with a Coach works. Investing in your success is a big decision that I don’t take lightly, and I believe in finding the right fit.
I leverage a proven framework to assess the core areas of your business that we need to focus on. To align on the right engagement for you, schedule an Assessment Call where we’ll go through the assessment, get your score in key areas, and determine which programs will be right for you.
