For those who lead
Over the last few decades, I’ve worked with hundreds of leaders. Some were exceptional, while others struggled to keep up. I’ve seen everything from time management, meeting culture, limiting beliefs, to emotional overwhelm destroy their careers.
Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to observe these leaders from both the perspective of a coach and a venture capitalist. From these vantage points, I've been able to track not only the different leadership styles across companies, but also the impact these styles had on teams and performance.
From startup founders to Fortune 500 executives, I’ve seen countless variations of what works and doesn’t work. I’ve seen how patterns emerge again and again, and how often they are completely counterintuitive.
I’ve wanted to share these findings for quite some time, and I’m excited to be publishing them in this newsletter.

Where your work becomes the work
We’re building a movement of leaders who refuse to sacrifice our aliveness and fulfillment. We believe that ambition and deep joy are not mutually exclusive. In fact, they fuel each other to new heights.
Coming alive at work is great for work
Inner work is not a detour from high performance it's the path. When you transform your inner landscape, your teams, business, and everyone around you transforms too.
Your team reflects your inner world
Your self-talk is reflected in how your team talks. Every pattern you don't address in yourself inevitably shows up in your team.
Leadership as self-discovery
Leadership is one of the most illuminating vehicles of personal growth. You're getting constant feedback, your triggers are real, and your growth impacts others directly.
