How We Work Together

The work is always the same: interrupt the patterns keeping you stuck, expand your capacity, and get you back to living instead of performing. The only question is where to start.

Lead Your Business. Love Your Family. Show Up For Yourself.

What This Looks Like In Practice

This is shoulder-to-shoulder work.

I interrupt patterns you can't see.

The same patterns running your business are running your marriage. The way you can't let go of control at work is the same way you can't be present at home. I name it so you can stop living it.

I sit in the rooms where it matters.

Your quarterly meetings. Your leadership offsites. The conversations between you and your COO that have been stuck for eighteen months. I facilitate through presence, translation, and the conversations nobody else will touch.

I transform how people actually hear each other.

When that unlocks, everything else follows: decisions get made faster, conflict becomes productive, you stop being the bottleneck. And when capacity expands at work, it expands everywhere.

I work across all three domains. Simultaneously.

Business. Family. Self. Because they're not separate. The leader who can't delegate at work can't be present at home. The parent who's disconnected from themselves has nothing left for their partner. The work is integration, not compartmentalization.

The Front Door
Capacity Builders
Free · Monthly group call · 60 minutes
Designed for high-achieving, impact-driven and family-focused entrepreneurs, change-makers, and thought leaders who are operating at full speed, yet quietly feeling stretched.

One hour a month to stop performing and actually feel the room. A guided somatic drop, a teaching frame from the Osmotic Leadership body of work, and a conversation with leaders who don't need you to pretend everything's fine.

No boring webinars or hidden sales pitches. This is an "invite only" space where the experience IS the invitation. If you're not sure, then it's probably exactly what you need.
Going Deeper
Private Advisory
$1,500/month (1x) · $2,500/month (2x)
Something cracked open. The group container isn't enough anymore. You need someone who sees the patterns you can't see, across all three domains: business, family, and self.

60-90 minute sessions, just you and me, going deep across all three domains. Plus async text and voice access between sessions — because the real breakthroughs happen at 11pm replaying a conversation with your partner, or at 6am realizing you just played Fixer in yesterday's meeting.

What happens: I sit with you. I see patterns. I ask hard questions. I'm the person in your life who doesn't let you perform. Most start at 2x/month for momentum, then move to 1x as capacity expands. Needing me less is the goal.
Full Integration
Strategic Partnership
By engagement · Custom scope
You want a strategic partner who operates as an extension of your board. Someone with decades of C-suite experience, leading across 19 countries, and can hold the full picture: leader, organization, family, culture.

Monthly meetings with key leadership. Optional on-site days. Full Osmotic Leadership engagement — not just advising the leader, shifting the culture. We're not pushing change. We're emanating it. When the leader is full, the organization fills. When the organization is aligned, the leader comes home whole.

What happens: You trust me from private work. Your team trusts me from being in the room. The organization shifts because nobody's forcing it. This is Osmotic Leadership in practice.

Every engagement is the same work: Stop performing. Start LIVING.
The only difference is how close you want me.

How To Start

Two ways to begin.

I don't work with everyone. And you shouldn't work with just anyone. Both of these are designed to find out if there's a real fit, not to sell you something.

Experience the Work
Capacity Builders
60 minutes / Free / Monthly

You don't need to commit to anything to know if this lands. Once a month, a small group of leaders who are done performing show up for an hour and leave feeling something they haven't felt in a while: resourced. If the work is right for you, you'll feel it before anyone has to sell it.

You know the expression: death by a thousand paper cuts? The small compromises. The invisible patterns. The way you've been bleeding capacity without realizing it. We're not here to fix all of them. We're here to find the one that's costing you the most.

Let's Be Honest

This work isn't for everyone.

This is for you if:
You're successful and exhausted by what it takes to stay there
You can afford strategic counsel without going into debt
You're open to input even when it's uncomfortable
You suspect the patterns that built your success are now capping it

This is not for you if:
You're looking for a consultant to tell you what to do
You want tactics without examining the patterns underneath
You're not willing to look at how your leadership shows up at home
You need someone to validate that everything's fine
You want to intellectualize without implementing

Questions You're Probably Asking

What's the investment?
Capacity Builders is free. Private Advisory is $1,500/month (1x) or $2,500/month (2x). Leadership Council is $5,000+/month. Strategic Partnership is custom-scoped by engagement. These are strategic relationships, not hourly coaching. The investment reflects the level of access, depth of engagement, and proximity. If you need to go into debt to afford this, it's not the right time.
How long do people typically work with you?
Most engagements run 6-12 months. Some continue beyond that because the relationship evolves and the work deepens. I'm not trying to make you dependent on me. I'm trying to make you independent of the patterns that made you feel like you needed someone like me.
Is this coaching?
No. Coaches help you achieve goals. Consultants tell you what to do. Therapists help you heal the past. I do something different. I sit in the interstitial space between all three: seeing the patterns that connect your business challenges, your family dynamics, and your personal capacity. I don't have a certification hanging on my wall for this. I have 25 years of living it, breaking it, and rebuilding it.
Do I need to be a parent to work with you?
No. The methodology works for any leader navigating the tension between professional success and personal wholeness. That said, most of the people who find me are parents running companies — because the integration work across business, family, and self is where I've lived and where I go deepest. If you're family-focused, you'll feel at home here immediately.
How many clients do you work with at a time?
A handful at any given time. This is high-touch, high-depth work. If there isn't an opening when we connect, I'll tell you honestly and we'll figure out timing.
What if my spouse or partner isn't on board?
That's actually one of the most common starting points. The work often reveals why they're skeptical: they've watched you invest in business growth for years while your presence at home decreased. This is different. This is the investment that gives you back to them. And they usually see the shift before you do.

Your Next Step

Ready to have the conversation you've been avoiding?

I work with a limited number of leaders at any given time. If there's an opening and we're aligned, we'll know it quickly.

Strategic. Somatic. Osmotic.
The arc of exponential impact — from the head, to the body, to the room.
The Front Door
Capacity Builders
Free · Monthly · 60 minutes

A private, consciously-curated space for leaders operating at full speed who are quietly feeling stretched. One hour a month to recalibrate, re-resource, and expand the inner capacity your outer life demands.

You'll walk in carrying whatever you're carrying. Within minutes, a guided somatic drop gets you out of your head and into your body. Then a teaching frame from the Osmotic Leadership body of work gives you language for something you've been feeling but couldn't name. Facilitated conversation in small groups with other leaders who get it. No performance. No fixing. One micro-tool you can use that week.

Most people show up curious. They leave resourced, seen, and wondering why they waited so long to slow down.

Drop your name and we'll send the next date, time, and Zoom link. That's it.
