ABOUT

Hi! I'm Joann.

In my two decades in the corporate world, climbing the ranks to Director and COO, I seemed to "have it all."


I was a picture of "success," yet beneath the accolades was a silent struggle...


  • Constant feelings of not measuring up
  • Second-guessing every decision I made
  • Questioning whether I truly deserved my position


I worked myself beyond the bounds of reason, never feeling like I was able to say "no," for fear of looking incapable or not being a team player.


(Sound familiar?)

The breaking point came when I took on a pilot program in addition to my already full-time responsibilities. I pushed myself relentlessly, until finally it took a serious toll on my health.


It was time for a change.


Seeking answers, I delved into research to find tools, and tips, and strategies, only to realize It's more than just strategies; it's about conquering the inner challenges. The true solution wasn't external—it had to come from within.


My breakthrough involved embracing vulnerability and recognizing that my journey was about more than leadership; it was about discovering my true passion; empowering others to lead authentically and confidently.


Respect and confidence from others begin with the respect and confidence we cultivate within ourselves.
