Supporting people, teams and organizations to work better and feel better
I believe…
that work can- and should- be full of joy, significance, and the right kind of challenge
that we all can- and should- accomplish great things without burning out, compromising our values, making tough tradeoffs, or harming ourselves or others
that teams and organizations can- and should- be inclusive, healthy spaces where everyone can thrive
that you can- and should- step into the highest version of your leadership and change the world

Leading Little Bites Coaching is a dream job in every sense of the word, and she can’t believe she gets to coach, support and champion such amazing clients.
