What People Say about Leah’s Work
“Working with Leah as a coach has been truly transformational. Through our work together, I’ve gained deep clarity around my values and learned how to stand confidently in my identity as a leader. Leah consistently pushes my thinking in ways that are both challenging and grounding, reminding me that I am in control of my time, my effectiveness, and my impact. Because of her coaching, I show up with greater confidence, use my voice more intentionally, and lead with a stronger sense of ownership and purpose. I’m a more grounded, decisive, and authentic leader as a result of her coaching.”
– Déla Fyfe, Senior Director of Operations and Culture, KIPP Colorado Public Schools

Of all the leaders I’ve worked with over my career, she is in the very top of folks I would hire to work with on a complex project that needs both intentional planning and deep investment from stakeholders. She’s able to assess a project quickly and dive in with all of her energy and heart.”

Leah finds joy + ease in
Hiking and long walks with my dog. Lifting heavy shit. Laughing with my husband. Long meals with friends. Reading absolute nonsense on Kindle Unlimited. Playing silly, low-stakes games with my kids, like Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza. Y’all – I figure skate, too… but honestly, it’s hard AF.
