WHAT IS
LEADERSHIP?
The word “leadership” comes from over two thousand years ago, and originates in a word meaning “to travel with” / “to guide while travelling together.”
What interests you about leadership?
Likely you know, that advancing your capacity to lead with grace and integrity, will grow you beautifully into a better human, as well as powerfully impact the life of others.
HOW DO YOU
WISH TO LEAD?
Maybe you are a higher-level leader who wants to have a happier high-performance team or an executive who is motivated to make a profound difference. Perhaps you are a physician who wants a better balance leading others in their health while flourishing in personal well-being and personal growth.
Perhaps you are curious how neuroscience, the heart field, the beauty of the subconscious, and a wisdom in leadership enhanced by the unique expertise of the horse can guide you to greater skill and leadership, moving forwards.
I work with highly motivated leaders committed to making the world a better place. My clients are curious about how deeply emotional intelligence grounded in the evidence-based science of specific knowledge and practices, advances both personal and team well-being, capacity and creative intelligence.
As we travel together through the knowledge required to grow your natural leadership capacity, we review the following and weave it into your Leadership Project and Action Plan:

A STRATEGIC APPROACH TO LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT:
You have worked as a leader, you have read books, taken courses, followed prescriptive manuals. But have you worked with your unique brain, nervous system, heart field and more? Did you know that each individual has their own unique architecture of the brain, as proven in the neuroimaging studies and mapping by Dr. Arthur Toga and colleagues in the Human Connectome Project.
When you take the time for individual coaching, you allow for guidance specific to your authentic skills as a leader, and your authentic nervous system and deeper subconscious processes. As you access your subconscious paired with the parallel nervous system retraining, you hone into what you are aware of in the present moment, as obstacles and visions to guide you forwards.
During your training with me, you clarify your personal practice for self leadership and how you adapt personally to the challenges of leadership. Your personal practice allows you to balance your nervous system and know your inner strength based on scoentificalyl validated virtues and values, to stand strong in the change, challenges and opportunities that come your way.
During your leadership program with me, you learn skills for leaderhsip of others, so that you show up in a neuroscientifically validated way to authentically engage with your team, understand the ecology of the landscape of the team on multiple levels, work together with your team to use challenges as opportunities, and understand roles within the fabric of your collective team awareness that lead to more efficient, easeful and enjoyable time together to align with the overarching vision.
If suitable, you deepen your awareness through the exacting and unapologetic intelligence of immersive experiences with horses on a private property in a remote mountain valley.
AUTHENTIC ADAPTIVE LEADERSHIP
WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR:
We are likely suited to work together if you are a senior leader with experience in other leadership programs that guide you through a manualized toolkit but have not addressed your unique talents and vision. At this point in your leadership development, you are interested in a training that is highly customized, informed by the language and teachings of neuroscience, innovative with recent developments in brunout prevention, nervous system balancing, longevity practices, electromagnetic awareness and perhaps, with advances emergeing in the the benefits of immersions with horses.
WHAT I OFFER:
As an expert in both non-verbal and verbal communication, I guide you to make key changes in your presence with yourself, and with your team. Emerge after a deep dive into your authentic leadership style, with actionable steps that you take and observe the results of, together with me during our executive coaching program. As my approach is highly individualized, meet with me for an initial consult and we can discuss which Leadership Coaching Program is best for you.
ELEMENTS OF EACH PROGRAM:
Evolve the mindset of yourself as a leader, to perceive challenges as opportunities for growth. I guide you to develop your adaptive intelligence and resilience with the tools of neuroscience-based self regulation and understanding of your team’s collective regulation, development of your own leadership language around the nervous system and how it applies to guiding your team forwards, self care practices to hone your unique skills set and true authentic leadership style, subconscious experiences designed to access your truths congruent with your vision as a leader, virtues and values training from the research of positive psychology, and guidance through a program of applied skills with feedback from those around you.

MASTERY OF THE MOMENT
In leadership, you can pivot with grace and ease when you learn how to master the moment through a neuroscience-based way to “read the room.” As a leader, having the capacity to understand, on a non-verbal level with the language of neuroscience, what is happening in your team, and, in your reaction to your team, and how to use this information to guide everyone towards realizing the vision, can advance your leadership skill set further, faster. In the Mastery of the Moment Program, you learn a neuroscience-based toolkit to expand your capacity to lead no matter what the moment presents, through a focused development of your understanding of applied neuroscience, for yourself, and for your team.
Mastery of the Moment is an advanced leadership program for physicians, available after completion of the Diamond MD Program. Take your leadership skills next level with a focus on the neuroscience of leadership as it applies to day to day challenges in the physician workplace. Understand the language of the neuroscience and how to apply it to lead your team forward, in five modules in tandem with personal coaching over the course of a year, supported by evidence-based scientific literature. Note that this program may be approved for scholarship funding.
