Leadership Coaching Practice

As a graduate of the Georgetown University Executive Certificate program in leadership coaching, I partner with emerging and existing leaders to meet today’s workplace challenges. A firm believer in the wisdom that exists in each of us, I use powerful tools, assessments, inquiry, and insights to help my clients achieve their goals.

I’m Called To Help People Who:

Embrace self-discovery with openness and candor

Recognize challenges as opportunities for personal and professional growth

Believe in their own deeply held wisdom

Understand coaching as a partnership, allowing both to grow and learn

Have an eagerness and commitment to learn, change or improve

Results I've Helped My Clients Achieve

A C-Suite healthcare executive

identified areas of responsibilities where she thrives so she could grow into higher positions with a greater presence, authenticity, and authority.

With the anxiety of working

on new units and unfamiliar teams during COVID, a clinician in a large academic hospital discovered and learned to rely on her greatest strengths that turned her paralyzing fear into confidence and job fulfillment.

A senior leader

didn’t merely cope—but rather grew from—the challenges of COVID and working from home surrounded by her small children. She fortified her resilience to meet the needs of her family as well as her team at work.

A mid-level manager

identified and cleared self-imposed obstacles that had sabotaged her personal and professional progress, thereby increasing job performance.

The founder of a values-driven

startup enterprise defined and grew her collaborative leadership style while treating her team as partners– not merely employees—so they could reach the goals, mission, and vision of the organization together.

“Nancy brings to her coaching a presence, enabling trust and vulnerability. She is an expert in communication and is quite insightful about barriers keeping people from the successes they want to achieve. Nancy is a great asset to those in nursing and other professions who experience moral distress and wrestle with developing resilience.”

Dan Stoltzful, MD

“Nancy helped me uncover the personal strength that I didn’t realize I had. Coaching is an investment in myself that pays dividends in return. Nancy did a great job earning my trust to get the most out of the experience. She was an accountability partner that helped me stay on track with my goals. I highly recommend her for any person looking to realize their highest potential. I’m sure she will be a lifelong resource for me.”

We Value Connection

When we are connected first to ourselves, our needs and our goals, new circuits are created, sparks fly, and energy flows as clarity emerges. It’s here that wisdom and power become unleashed. Our sojourn (a temporary stay) gets you there, helps you launch with purpose, and cheers you on – with necessary course corrections – along your way.
