Do you often feel overwhelmed or too busy to see straight?

Do you know what needs to be done to lead your team at work or your family at home but it feels like you do ALL the heavy lifting. Do you feel overwhelmed and under-supported?

As women, we have been gifted with an incredible instinct to sense others’ needs, to nurture and to take care of others at all costs. Generations of assigned female roles and our unchecked beliefs about ourselves as mothers, wives, volunteers, and workers have turbocharged our caretaking behaviors—without a brake system.

Is it possible that you haven’t taught people how to support YOU as a leader? 

It's time to be the matriarch of your life! 

This program will help you: 

  • Become aware of your caretaking patterns and how they impact you and your relationships
  • See where you are overextending yourself and propping others up
  • Define the effects of codependency in your life
  • Define healthy boundaries
  • Ask for the right kind of support and be willing and able to accept it
  • Give gentle and loving directions to others so they want to serve your vision

  • Shift your mindset so you can let go of disappointment more easily
  • Discover your natural leadership voice and the best times to use it
