My mission is simple. It’s to get you to a place of feeling good when you think and speak so that you lead from a place that lifts you and others around you.. I know conscious, authentic communication (the kind that makes you feel vulnerable) may make you feel nervous at times, but I promise if you stick around here, you’ll get better and better at it. You just need the tools to own the room with confidence, influence vs. inform and make genuine connections with the people you work with.
It’s time for us all to ditch the facade of being what we’ve been programmed to believe is “professional.” AKA: What you think other people want you to be and step into the clarity of just being you. After all, it’s you and your expertise that got you the job and the clients in the first place. 😃
And if you’re wondering what spirituality and science has to do with becoming a better communicator and leader …. buckle up! You’re in for the inside-out self-improvement journey of a lifetime.

It’s transference rather than recreation.

Success, Energy & Leadership
Success is achieved when and only when you can perform at the top of your game with high-level, highly-engaged energy for a sustained amount of time. Engaged energy is the type and amount of energy you are using at any given time on any given day. This is important because engaged energy plays a vital role in your success.
The Great Resignation is Also The Great Reflection
Turns out the desire to get a bigger paycheck isn’t the most important factor when it comes to where you choose to work.
In general, corporate culture is a much more reliable predictor of industry-adjusted attrition than how employees assess their compensation. An MIT Study found a toxic corporate culture is 10.4 times more powerful than compensation in predicting a company’s attrition rate compared with its industry. So… if you dread going to work, even if the pay is good, you’re more likely to look for employment elsewhere than if you simply want a bigger paycheck.
Why Everyone Needs to Understand Their Personal Energy Levels
Let’s talk assessments for a second. Everyone knows Myers-Briggs and most have had their Enneagram typed. Then there’s Strengths Finder, DiSC, The Four Color Personalities, Goleman’s EQ Test… the list goes on and on.
