Communication in Leadership

Over the years, I’ve worked with clients navigating conflict in both their relationships and careers. And I’ve seen the same patterns show up again and again—especially when people are overwhelmed, stuck, or trying to make a shift without the right tools.

The truth is: until we know better, we can’t do better. Communication isn’t just about what we say—it’s how we show up, what we believe we’re allowed to ask for, and whether or not we feel safe expressing ourselves in the first place.

Here are some of the most common communication challenges I help clients work through:

  • Struggling to express needs or boundaries clearly

  • Avoiding necessary conversations out of fear

  • Overexplaining, justifying, or becoming defensive when vulnerable

  • Mixed signals between tone, body language, and words

  • Listening to respond instead of listening to understand

  • Getting emotionally flooded mid-conversation

  • Making assumptions or trying to “mind-read”

  • Speaking indirectly or hoping someone picks up on hints

  • Using the same communication style in every context, whether or not it fits

  • Difficulty seeing other perspectives or staying grounded in empathy

Sound familiar? These patterns are normal—but they’re also changeable.

In our work together, we build new communication strategies rooted in clarity, self-trust, and emotional intelligence.

Here's how we do it:

  • NLP communication techniques to help you shift old patterns and build rapport consciously

  • Active listening practice so you can stay present even when conversations get hard

  • Role-playing tools to rehearse difficult conversations in a safe environment

  • Mindfulness and nervous system regulation to stay grounded when emotions rise

  • Reframing and perspective-taking to open up new options in moments of conflict

  • Assertiveness skills to help you express what you need without guilt or aggression

  • Non-violent communication frameworks that help you speak with clarity and care

  • Emotional intelligence work to understand and manage your own triggers

  • Feedback skills so you can give and receive input without power struggles

  • Cultural and relational awareness to communicate more effectively across differences

Better communication isn’t just about being “better” at talking—it’s about being more connected to yourself. When that happens, your words land differently. People listen. And more importantly, you listen to yourself.

This is leadership work. It’s relational work. It’s personal growth work. And it’s what I do best.

If you’re ready to shift the way you lead, speak, and relate—book a session. Let’s make communication something you trust again.

Life & Leadership Coaching
$175.00

These virtual sessions are built for ambitious people who are carrying a lot—and ready to do it differently.

Whether you're navigating burnout, decision fatigue, or the constant pressure to perform, this is a space to slow down, reset, and re-align with what actually matters to you. We'll work together on your personal and professional growth through the lens of nervous system awareness, values-based decision-making, and practical structure.

This work draws on tools from the School of Consent, NLP-based communication, and applied yoga and mindfulness practices. Sessions are personalized, therapeutic, and flexible to what you need each week—whether that’s deep emotional processing, habit redesign, or clarity around leadership and boundaries.

You’ll leave with tools you can actually use—not just insights you forget by the next meeting.

Here’s what to expect:

  • 1:1 session via Zoom

  • Optional session recordings and transcripts available so you can revisit the work

  • Practical strategies to support your clarity, structure, and emotional regulation

  • Realistic support—not performative self-care

Pricing & Packages
Support should meet your needs, not box you in. After an initial consult, we’ll determine what level of support makes the most sense for your goals. Flexible packages are available.
