How?

Having you as a presence in my life and a consistent touch point, I'm able to really honestly share my obstacles and my challenges, and have a clear vision for where I want to go.
I feel like you really saw me, loved me, and wanted the best for me. You called me out at places when I would revert to being overly self-critical or not hard enough. I always push myself a lot, but our relationship built a confidence which allowed me to move forward in a way with integrity and my truth as a focus point. You also championed me a lot, and gave me the push to really jump into my authentic self and be in that place always. I think the feedback you’ve given me over the course of those conversations was invaluable, and a testament to your ability to listen, absorb, and help surface meaningful insights. You have a way of conversing and drawing out themes, asking the next probing question and pushing back on assumptions in a just-talking-to-a-friend way, except you're trained to truly listen for cues and expertly tie them together. I love the balance you bring between thoughtful structure based on inputs from me, as well as going with the flow to have more open discussions. It allows me to think freely yet with a goal in mind. Leland always helps me to bring clarity and focus. He provides a safe yet creative space to allow my thoughts to deepen and expand. Leland helps me see the good in myself. He always invokes higher appreciation for myself, reminds me of what is important to me, what I am good at, and that simply, I'm worthy. Leland is understanding, compassionate, non-judgmental, and gives me hope on the days that I don't have it. We have weekly conversations I ask questions. |
My philosophy and approach
Peak performance is built on a foundation of mental and emotional well-being.
People are naturally creative, resourceful, and whole.
We need to invest in people as much as ideas.
Leadership is about cultivating the conditions that support and encourage/nuture/invite/provoke others to become more.
It begins with self-leadership, which includes
self-awareness
healing and changing one's relationship with trauma

If you let yourself dream big, what could be possible for you?
- A startup founder was feeling stressed & overwhelmed with external expectations and craved creative time again to focus on new product ideas and strategic thinking. With ruthless prioritization and delegation, we created a whole day, every week, free of meetings and interruptions.
- A CEO was given feedback that her visionary nature often frustrated her team as she would bounce from one exciting idea to the next. We partnered to refine her company's overall strategy and implemented processes that honor her passion and energy while keeping the team focused on quarterly goals.
- A program manager at a large corporation wanted to overcome her internal self-doubt and imposter syndrome. By drilling down into her strengths and dissolving limiting beliefs formed at her prior workplace, she was able to build her authentic confidence and trust herself as she took on more responsibility and a new promotion.
- A department head was feeling stagnant in his job and wanted to switch to a more fulfilling career with greater growth opportunities. We uncovered his core values and fine-tuned his resume to reflect a bold vision of himself. In weeks, he made it to 3 final round interviews and is now working at a thriving company he believes in.
- A product engineering leader at a medium-sized tech company wanted support turning a passion project idea into reality. We dug deep to explore the most important aspects of her vision and created an action plan to get there. Using this momentum, she rallied a team, built a website, raised more funding than expected, and launched the first iteration of her idea... all while working full-time.
My clients say that our work together most significantly helps them:
- Pursue and do meaningful work with great impact.
- Build and maintain healthy habits for body, mind, and soul.
- Deepen self-awareness of core values, leadership strengths, and blind spots.
- Cultivate more trusting and empathetic relationships, both at home and at work.
- Create regular periods of "deep work" for focused productivity and inspired creativity.
- Access and hone their intuition.
- Redesign workplace cultures to foster more humanity, empathy, inclusion, and trust.
- Strengthen self-confidence and courage to speak one's truth and do what is scary.
- Feel more calm and at peace.

My commitments
- No pressure, no obligation, no hard sell.
- If I don't think coaching makes sense for you right now, I'll candidly share my opinion and reasoning. (I've said this to a designer at Apple)
- If I believe coaching makes sense for you but we're not the best fit, I'll recommend other certified coaches that I trust who you can speak with. (I've done this for a COO of a healthcare tech startup)
- If, at the end of our conversation, we're both feeling energized and inspired and think there's something big here, we can discuss next steps.
