Essence In Leadership™

Elevate your leadership. Not by reacting to everyone else's priorities but by returning to your own.

A 5-month transformational one on one experience for high-performing managers and leaders who are ready to reclaim their energy, empower their team and build a legacy they're proud of.

This is for you if you’re a high-performing manager or rising leader who:

  • Has been successful, but is exhausted from trying to hold all the competing priorities — between the company, the team, and the business itself
  • Wants to scale to the next level, but knows you can’t keep doing it all yourself
  • Manages people, but still feels like every decision, issue, or fire ends up on your plate
  • Knows there’s a better way to lead — one that creates results without costing you your health, your time, or your family

Essence in Leadership is a complete reset for high achievers who've outgrown the way they’ve been operating — helping you shift from reactive, overextended, and constantly on-call to clear, confident, and deeply effective — in just 5 months, through a proven method that transforms how you lead yourself, your team, and your business.


This transformation happens through my 5-part framework

WHAT YOU GET / INSIDE THE PROGRAM

This is a 5-month immersive program built around my signature E.M.B.E.R. Method. Every part of it is designed to help you both release the old patterns that keep you stuck — and build the structures and strategies that let you scale with freedom.

HOW THE PROGRAM UNFOLDS

Part 1: Redefining Leadership from the Inside Out
We begin by shifting the lens inward. Instead of focusing on tactics, you’ll uncover how your patterns, personality, and internal beliefs quietly shape how you lead. This is where real leadership development starts. This sets the foundation for meaningful, lasting change.

Part 2: Clearing What’s Getting in the Way
You don’t need more productivity hacks. You need to clear the unseen blocks that drain your energy, clarity, and confidence. This part introduces powerful tools to help you recognize and shift the internal patterns that keep you stuck. This is where things start to feel lighter and more powerful at the same time.

Part 3: Seeing and Shifting Your Team
Now that you’ve clarified your internal leadership, it’s time to turn the focus outward. This part helps you understand the deeper layers of team dynamics. The patterns, projections, and unspoken undercurrents that impact culture and performance. This is the bridge between personal growth and team transformation.

Part 4: Conversations, Time, and the Hidden Cost of Control
This is not just about time management. It’s about the unspoken urgency and over-responsibility that many leaders carry and how to lead differently without dropping the ball. You’ll learn to slow the noise, lead with focus, and create room for the right conversations. This is where leaders move from managing everything to leading what matters.

Part 5: Performance, Growth, and Building What Lasts
This part is about building momentum. The kind that doesn’t rely on force. You’ll learn to lead your team toward high performance in a way that’s strategic, thoughtful, and deeply connected to your long-term vision. This is about building growth that holds even when the pressure rises.

Part 6: Expanding Your Reach and Leading from Your Core
The final part is about expansion. Of your leadership, your impact, and your ability to shape the future. You’ll learn to lead from your strengths, build trust across your organization, and develop the kind of influence that extends far beyond your team.

Here's what's included:

Biweekly 1:1 leadership live coaching calls

Private 60 minute sessions every other week, focused on what is on your plate right now. You walk away with clarity, a grounded plan for what to do next, and practical ways to apply what we cover in your day to day leadership. Each call follows the full Essence In Leadership program and the EMBER method, and is customized so we spend more time on the areas you need most.

Session recordings you can replay anytime

Every call is recorded so you do not have to catch everything in the moment. You can revisit key moments, reuse the coaching before future conversations, and notice how your leadership evolves over time.

Always-on support between sessions

Support is always available between calls when real situations arise. You can reach out, get quick coaching, and work through live challenges in real time, not just discuss them after the fact.

Strategy and mindset in one place

This isn’t theory and it’s not just tactics. You’ll strengthen the inner confidence and resilience that make great leaders while also implementing concrete systems and structures to free up your time and scale your team.

Flexible scheduling that fits your calendar

Schedule your one on one sessions at your convenience. You receive a private booking link so you can choose times that work within your schedule and adjust as your week changes.

It’s a comprehensive container — but more importantly, it’s a transformation engine. Because this isn’t about information. This is about actually changing how you lead, live, and scale.

Ready To Lead Differently? 

Hi, I'm Deb.

I spent over 30 years in corporate sales, management, and executive leadership, building and leading high-performing sales teams and developing the managers who ran them. I know what it takes to succeed because I’ve lived it. I also know what it costs when we lose ourselves along the way.

On paper, I was thriving. But behind the scenes, I was juggling pressure, self-doubt, and the constant feeling that I had something to prove. I was burned out, desk-managing, and doing it all out of fear while it quietly took a toll on both my work and my life. What changed everything was learning how to lead differently not by doing more, but by setting the tone, trusting my team, and leading from clarity, not control.

That shift allowed me to untangle old patterns, rebuild my confidence, and grow large, self-sustaining teams with real momentum. Today, I coach high-achieving professionals and sales leaders who are ready to do the same. My approach blends mindset work, practical strategy, and personal growth so you can lead with purpose, scale with clarity, and build a culture where your team (and you) can thrive.

Because success should feel like yours. And leadership should never cost you your peace.
