Be the leader your vision requires.
I help visionary leaders, teams and organizations navigate change and complexity and build the skills, mindsets, and capabilities that lead to transformative results .
“If you're a mission-driven leader navigating growth, change, or the need for greater clarity, working with Lia is one of the best investments you can make.”
If you want different results, you’ve gotta be different.
You're ambitious and successful, and navigating a pivotal moment: Stepping into a bigger role, realigning your team, founding something new, or defining a strategic direction.
Maybe you have lots of energy and ideas but the wheels are spinning. Maybe you're using the tools that used to work, but progress feels slower or harder than it should. Maybe you’re a team that respects and believes in each other, but as the work gets more complex, something’s just not clicking. Maybe you’re a team that’s growing, and things don’t flow like they used to.
Whatever it is, you know that something needs to shift, but you're not sure what.
We go beyond surface-level fixes and build the foundation for lasting change.
I partner with leaders and teams to define their challenge and rise to it.
Whether working 1:1 with executive leaders or facilitating towards alignment with high-performing teams, I blend practical frameworks, strategic insight, and emotional intelligence to clarify goals, identify barriers, and build new mindsets, actions, and tools that stick.
Turn uncertainty into confidence, misalignment into shared purpose, and stuck patterns into breakthrough momentum—so you can keep on changing the world.
“Lia didn't just help me prepare for a temporary transition—she helped me grow in ways that will serve me for years to come. She is equal parts insightful, strategic, and deeply compassionate."
I work with…
High-performing leaders making big moves
Maybe you’re taking on a big promotion or entering a higher-visibility role, or maybe you’re stepping out to start something new.
I believe that anchored, authentic, and heart-centered leaders do it better—but it takes deep work, intention, and unwavering support. I help leaders metabolize their emotions, realign to their values, and re-envision what’s possible for their lives, leadership, and teams.
Founding teams bringing a bold vision to life
Maybe you’re a start-up team, building an organization from the ground up. Or maybe you’re a founding team adding layers for the first time, going from 5-10. Rapid growth exhilarating—but it presents unique challenges.
I help founders and high-growth teams build the strategic and cultural foundation they need to create inclusive, successful organizations with their values at the center.
Leaders, orgs & teams navigating inflection points
Maybe you’re a newly formed leadership team, or perhaps you’re leading an org that’s facing a new opportunity, transition, or pivot point. Either way, when expectations are high, emotions run deep. In these moments, you need clarity, connection, and alignment to lead forward.
I help orgs and teams facing uncharted territory get clear, cohesive, and anchored as they make their next best move.

Hi! I’m Lia.
I’m a transformational coach, expert facilitator, clarity conjurer, and relationship whisperer. I’m also the mother of two small humans, which really says it all.
I know from experience that being a high-achieving, goal-oriented leader and a feeling, sensitive person can be a lot to hold. Despite consistently outperforming my goals and earning lots of accolades over my career, I hit a rough patch that changed forever how I lead and how I think about what’s possible for leaders and teams. I emerged from that rough patch a more evolved and grounded person and leader, convicted that a different kind of leadership is not just possible, but exponentially more impactful and sustainable.
Now, I bring my 20+ years of experience to my work with clients, who, despite their brilliance and potential, question their intuition, spin their wheels or feel stuck. They know that what got them here won’t get them where they want to go, but aren’t sure how to move forward.
I help purpose-driven leaders and teams facing uncharted territory explore big ideas, navigate complex emotions, and anchor to what matters most so they can achieve the impact they seek, and do it with joy, alignment and courage.
What I offer
Leadership Coaching
Fortify your leadership from the inside out: As a coach, I am one-part thought-partner, one-part accountability buddy, and one-part truth teller. I help executives and teams refine their vision and values, pinpoint the root cause of their most frustrating challenges, and thrive through change so they can do their best work yet.
Strategic Planning
Clarity on the what and capacity-building for the how: As a full-service thought partner, I help leaders and teams pull clarity from chaos and complexity. Strategic advising starts with discovery so we can clarify goals, and ends with a set of specific objectives and clear path forward.
Learning experiences designed to unlock potential and change the status quo: As an experience designer and facilitator, I help teams solve strategic problems in an inspiring, collaborative way. My workshops, retreats, and team meetings drive learning, clarify and align strategy, and build team cohesion.
