My passion

is in supporting the success & healing of others

My purpose and passion in life is to support the success of leaders, especially women, LGBTQ+ & BIPOC people who have been historically and systemically excluded from leadership roles across all industries.

I BELIEVE

  • Leadership resilience, agility, and the ability to navigate mission success is a collective skill, we cannot do this alone. 

  • In order to come together as a society, we must heal the parts of ourselves that are grasping on to fear as a protector.

  • We heal in community, not in isolation. 

  • Empowering you to recognize that you are your own healer, I will just walk beside you to support you on your path.

  • There are no limits to our potential, as people and in our communities if we exercise compassion & self acceptance.

Thoughts on Leadership

I think the biggest opportunity for leaders today is leveraging the best of their teams, playing to the strengths of their people, promoting teaming as a dynamic activity because I firmly believe that no one leader will be able to successfully navigate the ever changing reality alone. That leadership resilience and the ability to navigate and achieve in our world is a collective skill.

Our work together is a true partnership; we look at where we are now, where we need to go, and we plan together how we are going to get there. Our bottom line is to work through the lens of awareness so as to navigate critical transitions with a level of effort and ease. And always with consistent connection to the guiding principles of the individual’s leadership. 

My ultimate goal is to get you to believe in yourself. Recognizing your strengths, understanding when and why the voice of your inner critic becomes louder, and implementing tools to change the narrative. Bringing awareness to how you view your internal and external world will help in elevating you to where you want to go.

I have experienced Alex in ceremony, as well as in virtual coaching sessions and in either case their presence has always made a huge and very positive difference.

My passion stems from and is in honor of my friend, Patty Brandmaier, who served in the CIA for 32yrs. She was a mentor, friend, and ultimately became family to me. I coach to continue her work and to thank her for her selfless service to our country and her continued passion to support the success of others through her mentorship, leadership and loving open heart. Forever honoring her legacy.
