I lead + care about - who you are - and how you show up.
I‘be been a leader since I was a little girl. In that leadership journey I’ve continuously heard I am a refreshing truth-teller by elders. The rest of the world has deemed me:
Difficult
Tender-hearted
Outspoken
Sensitive
Courageous
Mercurial
Warrior
Imaginative
Hard-headed
Fascinating part of untangling these compliments + criticisms over the decades has been to observe how often they are projections versus identifiers.
Because I’m led from a strong and intense Indigenous focused perspective, I’m a walking Sacred Warrior. I came to Substack after having my LinkedIn profile shut down (yes, I got it back) because someone wanted to silence me.
Little did they know or understand, you cannot silence what The Great Spirit has gifted to a Leadership Warrior.
Here is what I can promise you if you choose to join me in this journey here - I will be honest even when being honest means I get to share where I've made a mistake or found myself in deficit. Because that is the price of growth.
My promise is to ask more questions than make assumptions or assertions.
My promise is to examine and explore rather than to find fault and complain.
My promise is to be willing to navigate what is the opportunity for us to both discover what can be - and then take those actions.
What if your next phase of growth came from navigating it with a person who is solutions-focused?
Because in our time and in this world we need better answers than most leaders are offering and YOU could be delivering those answers.
That is why, as your Solution Architect, I'm all about helping you unleash your true power, uncover hidden roadblocks, and close those pesky gaps in time, knowledge, and behavior. Together, we'll build your personalized operating system (OS) to boost your strengths and supercharge your mission.
My style?
Far from a cookie-cutter formula. We'll work on breakthroughs that reveal your untapped strengths, and we'll align them with your mission for lasting impact—not just for you, but also for your team and community.
Why Team Up with Me?
Leaders who vibe with my approach are up for any challenge, love to learn, and are all-in for radical change. They're not afraid to rock the boat and chart their own course.
As a multi-racial leader (Choctaw/Cherokee/Celtic), I bring a unique perspective rooted in Indigenous and social justice values. I connect deeply with leaders ready to challenge bias and shake off old habits—starting with their own.
My Vision:
In a world where equity is the norm, not a pipe dream, we need more voices at the decision-making table. My goal is to see 75% of previously silenced voices taking their rightful seat.
My mission is to partner with CEOs, business owners, and leaders who want to boost their emotional cadence and create thriving businesses that value people and profits equally.
Here's How I've Got Your Back:
Today's leaders face crazy challenges in a constantly shifting landscape. I help you make emotionally intelligent decisions rooted in cultural wisdom, not outdated thinking. Here's how:
Decision-Making Breakthroughs: I shine a light on blind spots in your decision-making process, so you can avoid warped choices and embrace your one-of-a-kind operating system.
Emotional Intelligence Mastery: Emotions are valuable insights, not annoyances. I teach you to harness emotional intelligence for resonant decisions that benefit everyone.
Catalyst for Radical Change: From weaving equity into your business model to revolutionizing your leadership style, I guide you to become a change-maker within your organization and beyond.
