Delivering my talk/workshop, “Embodied Leadership: Practical Tools for Tangible Change,” at Microsoft’s ‘Make it Happen’ Career Conference
Embodied Leadership = How you’re showing up
How are YOU showing up in your life?
I do Heart-Centered Coaching. I work with Creative Entrepreneurs and passionate individuals who want to thrive in all areas of their lives.
This means that my work starts with Clarifying their Vision & Goals, and then often translates into supporting them with the tech and business aspects; effectively helping them take their creative ideas to the next level.
So, while I’m coaching & consulting, we’re not just looking at the tasks and to-do lists, but we’re going deeper, and looking at all the aspects that are going to enable us to BECOME and CREATE what we want to see in our lives.
What does being a Leader look like for YOU?
Leadership in your life doesn’t have to mean leading teams, or becoming the CEO. It’s about TAKING THE LEAD in your life. Recognizing that you have a choice in how you CHOOSE TO SHOW UP.
It’s accepting 100% Responsibility for who we are now, and the willingness to get curious and discover where we may have room to grow.
Often our weaknesses are amplified under pressure. Be curious and compassionate, as these are learning edges and opportunities for growth.

Learning Edges = Opportunities for Growth
What are your learning edges?
When we lean into our Learning Edges – our opportunities for growth – we’re opening ourselves up to more of what we want in our life.
Who you want to become starts with EMBODYING it today. Right here, right now.
A helpful framework for this can be to begin by looking at it holistically:
- PHYSICAL: How we’re taking care of ourselves, our health, our bodies.
- EMOTIONAL: How happy we are, and what our heart is saying.
- MENTAL: How clear & focused our minds are. If we’re feeling lost or overwhelmed, and where we may need more structure.
- SPIRITUAL: And lastly, how connected are we feeling. Are we clear on our purpose, and are we fully engaged; recognizing our actions are serving more than just us. We need to feel like we’re a part of something and making a difference.
When you think what you do matters, you bring more energy to it. #Purpose #Contribution #Appreciation

What aspects of you/your life, if you gave it a little more intentional energy and focus, would greatly improve?
What’s the first step you will take?
Wednesday, March 26th, I delivered a talk/workshop, entitled “Embodied Leadership: Practical Tools for Tangible Change,” at Microsoft’s ‘Make it Happen’ Career Conference.
Sponsored by Silicon Valley Women at Microsoft, this conference supports professional and leadership development for Microsoft employees in the Bay Area. It focuses on insight and strategy to make ideal careers happen – YES! My favorite.
Thank you for having me, Microsoft!
