Stop Fighting Your Team's Behavior. Start Creating the Right Environment.
The 8-week intensive that helps you understand what's really happening with your team—so you can create the conditions where everyone performs at their best.
Tired of Leading Teams That Just Get By Instead of Excel?
You have talented people on your team. You know they're capable. But some of them just aren't performing the way you know they could. Maybe you've noticed:
Picture your Monday morning team meeting. Most of your team is engaged and contributing. But one or two people seem absent—eyes down, minimal participation, only safe responses when pressed. You've tried clearer expectations, more check-ins, direct feedback. Nothing changes. Or worse, they shut down even more.
You suspect something deeper is going on. But your leadership training never taught you how to support someone struggling in ways that don't respond to traditional management. So you're guessing, trying the same tactics, watching them continue to underperform.
The frustrating part? You can see their potential. But you don't know how to create the conditions where they can actually bring it forward.
What If Your Team Could Thrive While You Lead with Less Stress?
Imagine walking into your next team meeting and feeling the energy in the room - people leaning in, building on each other's ideas, taking ownership of challenges, and coming to you with solutions, not just problems.
Picture this transformation:
Team members proactively sharing innovative ideas without fear of judgment
Difficult conversations that strengthen relationships instead of creating tension
People supporting each other through challenges while maintaining high standards
A workplace culture where psychological safety and peak performance go hand in hand
You leading with confidence, knowing you're creating lasting positive impact
This isn't wishful thinking. It's the natural result of trauma-informed leadership - an approach backed by neuroscience and proven in organizations worldwide.
Traditional leadership training focuses on what to do, but ignores the fundamental truth about human performance: People excel when they feel psychologically safe, valued, and connected to meaningful work.
The research is clear:
Why Most Leadership Approaches Leave You Exhausted
76%
higher engagement in psychologically safe teams
47%
increase in team performance
27%
reduction in turnover
Yet most leaders were never taught how to create these conditions. Instead, they default to command-and-control methods that worked in the past but leave today's teams feeling micromanaged and uninspired.

Meet Your Guide: Leading from Understanding
“The most powerful leadership transformations happen when we understand both perspectives—what it’s like to need psychological safety and what it takes to create it.”
I didn't choose trauma-informed leadership as a specialty because it seemed interesting. I chose it because I've lived both sides of this story.
As a trauma survivor, I know what it's like to navigate workplace environments that weren't designed with psychological safety in mind—showing up as a high-functioning professional while managing challenges that remained invisible to traditional leadership approaches.
As a leader, I've experienced the frustration of watching talented team members struggle, knowing that conventional management wisdom wasn't equipped to help them thrive, and searching for better approaches that honored their humanity.
That search led me to develop the frameworks, tools, and practices you'll learn in this intensive—each one informed by neuroscience, tested in real organizational settings, and refined through the unique lens of understanding both what creates safety and what breaks it.
When you work with me, you're not just getting certified training. You're learning from someone who has sat in both chairs and knows what actually works.
Be Part of the Founding Cohort
This is the pilot launch of The Empowered Leader Intensive—which means you have a rare opportunity to be among the first leaders to experience this approach.
Why join a pilot cohort?
Because the most transformational movements are built by early adopters who see the potential before everyone else does. This founding cohort will receive:
✨ The most personalized attention possible
With only 15 participants and bi-weekly individual coaching, you'll get tailored support that won't be available at this level in future cohorts
✨ Direct influence on program evolution
Your feedback will shape how this intensive develops, ensuring it addresses what leaders actually need
Pilot pricing ($500 below future rates), lifetime access to all program updates, priority placement in our private community, and first access to advanced programs
✨ Founding member benefits
Your optional participation in case studies and success stories will help future leaders discover this work (we'll only share what you're comfortable with)
✨ A chance to pay it forward
The trade-off?
You won't see pages of testimonials from previous participants—because you'll be creating them. You're pioneering an approach to leadership that prioritizes nervous system regulation, psychological safety, and sustainable high performance.
If you're someone who values being at the forefront rather than waiting for proof, this is your moment.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Most leadership training focuses on task management and processes. This intensive teaches you to lead at the nervous system level—understanding and working with how humans actually function under stress. Plus, you get bi-weekly individual coaching calls to ensure you're applying concepts to your unique team challenges, not just learning theory.
-
All sessions are recorded and available for 90 days. However, the real transformation happens in the live practice labs and peer interactions, so we strongly encourage live attendance whenever possible.
-
The nervous system principles we teach are universal—they work whether you're leading a tech team, healthcare workers, nonprofit staff, or any other group. The program is designed for leaders managing teams of 3-50 people, though the principles scale.
-
You don't need organizational buy-in to start leading differently. Many participants begin by transforming their own team dynamics, which creates visible results that naturally gain support. We'll coach you on how to introduce these concepts in ways that resonate with your organizational culture.
-
The program requires 90 minutes per week for group sessions, plus 30 minutes every other week for individual coaching, and time for peer practice. Most leaders find that the time invested actually reduces their overall stress by helping them lead more effectively—you'll spend less time firefighting and more time on strategic work.
-
You'll have access to all resources for life, plus two post-program coaching calls (at 30 and 90 days) and quarterly refresher sessions. You'll also join our private community of trauma-informed leaders for ongoing support.
-
Yes! We offer a 14-Day Leadership Confidence Guarantee. If you don't feel more equipped to lead at the nervous system level and create psychological safety for your team, you'll get a full refund. No questions asked.
Your Investment
Let's talk about what poor leadership costs you:
Low engagement costs organizations $300+ billion annually in the US alone
The average cost of replacing one employee is $15,000+
Poor leadership is the #1 reason people leave their jobs
Burnout-related healthcare costs are estimated at $125-190 billion per year
If this program helps you retain just one valuable team member, prevent one case of burnout, or increase your team's performance by even 10%, it pays for itself many times over.

P.S.
Still on the fence? Consider this: The average leader spends 23% of their waking hours dealing with conflict and team dysfunction. That's over 2 hours every single day.
What would you do with those 2+ hours back? What could your team accomplish if they were truly engaged and collaborative?
This is also the pilot launch—which means you're getting founding member pricing that won't be available once we have proven results and testimonials from this cohort. Early adopters always get the best deal and the most personalized attention.
The question isn't whether you can afford this investment. The question is: Can you afford not to make it?
