Become your greatest adventure.

Gain the self-awareness, habits, and courage for
the life that is calling you forth.

We are living in challenging times.

I help leaders create focus in their lives so that they can accelerate change.

I see you. You're an extremely motivated, high achiever

Hi, I'm Leland, and I'm here to help.

Life is busy. It's filled with interruptions.
The modern struggle is
We are living - and suffering - not from scarcity but from abundance.

We're constantly overstimulated. Notifications, unlimited options, social media.

The problem is

I help my clients engage in a process of deepening their self-awareness so that they get clearer than they ever have on what's really important - and why - and then create it.

We must learn to...

I'm Leland.

It's not about me.

It's about the next generation. I believe it's our responsibility to make the world a little better for those who come after us.

To do that, we need as many people to break free of old paradigms and awaken to an innate way of leading that is driven by love, empathy, and human connection - not fear.

To lead others effectively through meaningful and sustainable change, we must prioritize leading ourselves.

It is my greatest joy to guide people to unlock their highest potential so that they can achieve extraordinary success AND personal well-being.

We're all in this together.

"Leland is a coaching natural.
He differentiates from the rest as he moves into the zones to free people from their limitations. If you are looking to rise above your fears and be integrated inside out while living fulfilled in the world, I recommend him without reservation."

Approach

Every coaching partnership is unique and deeply personalized for each client. I see myself as a sherpa, a guide, a companion along the journey for people who are interested in using their unique gifts to serve others.

I see us as partners invested in you, your growth, and the impact you want to make - not just as a leader but as a heart-centered, beautifully messy human being.

So far, my clients say that our work together impacts them most significantly in these six areas:

1. Deepening self-awareness, particularly around core values, leadership strengths, and blind spots.

2. Creating regular periods of "deep work" for focused productivity and inspired creativity.

3. Cultivating more authentic and empathetic relationships, both at home and at work.

4. Improving decision making skills across the board, from exercise & eating habits to major career changes.

5. Strengthening self-confidence and courage to speak one's truth and do what is scary.

6. Amplifying effectiveness, happiness, wealth, and inner peace in their careers.

"I love being in partnership with you because it’s constantly inspiring me to focus on what truly matters."

What I don't want you to know about me

The root of my greatest fear is letting down the people I love
In chasing what I thought meant success, I've pretended to be someone I wasn't
I've been put on a performance improvement plan
Failed at getting into Stanford's Graduate School of Business, twice
Burned out multiple times, leading to fainting in the middle of a friend's dinner party and (separately) getting pneumonia
Had bad acne as a teenager, and a mild stutter my whole life - I know what it's like to want to be invisible
Lost loved ones to suicide, eating disorders, and cancer

But what I'm really proud of is

I call my mom every week
My partner and I have built a family that is healthy, loving, positive, and mutually supportive
Rebuilding my relationship with my brother
Cultivating genuinely meaningful relationships with people I call friends, colleagues, mentors, and clients
The incredible work my clients are up to in the world and how I get to contribute to their success and wellbeing
I LOVE what I do and I'm learning to build a sustainable life centered around family, service, adventure, and fun
Deep down, I'm happy with who I am, warts and all, and excited for how I'm growing

Let's work together.

I'm envisioning a future where an ecosystem of sustainable business, technology, authentic leadership, equitable education, diverse collaboration, and spiritual development are harmoniously integrated to cultivate the next generation of impact-driven leaders. A future where a deeper understanding of what it means to be human is supported and nourished by organizations.

I care most about helping people welcome and express the fullness of their humanity, so they can live connected and loving lives filled with meaning, awe, and freedom.

I'm tremendously honored to work with the clients I do - each is an inspiration and a gift.

With appreciation,
Leland
