"Working with Andrea has helped me grow both personally and professionally"

Developing leaders and teams in high-pressure, fast-changing environments.
When pressure compounds... leadership systems are the first to break
Decisions get pushed
Leaders hesitate
Execution slows
The same conversations keep happening
The business starts to bottleneck around the most capable people
Over time, pressure stops being a phase and it becomes the operating system
& even strong leaders hesitate, decisions stall, and execution bottlenecks at the top.
Let’s get to know one another…
Hi, I’m Andrea.
I’ve spent my career inside fast-moving, high-pressure environments — leading teams, building systems, and being accountable for decisions that mattered.
I came to this work after years of watching capable leaders struggle in systems that rewarded urgency over clarity and activity over ownership. Not because they were failing, but because the way leadership was structured made it hard to lead intentionally.
My background blends executive leadership, product innovation, and applied science with coaching. I work with leaders who want their decisions, teams, and time to move forward without everything depending on them.
This work is practical. It is grounded in behavior, structure, and follow through. It is designed to hold under pressure, not just sound good in theory.
"I imagine a world where leadership isn’t driven by constant urgency or fear.
Where people have the clarity to choose how they show up and where trust, connection, and meaning aren’t sacrificed for speed."
How We Work Together
Private 1:1 coaching
One-on-one coaching focused on how you lead, decide, and show up when it matters most.
We work on clarity, self-leadership, and practical structures that help you focus energy where it creates the most value, reduce reactivity, and lead your team with confidence.
Leadership support for teams & organizations
For organizations navigating growth, change, or sustained pressure, we support leaders and teams through facilitated conversations, coaching, and leadership development.
This work strengthens alignment, improves communication, and helps teams move forward together, without burning out the people responsible for results.
We focus on the conditions that allow leadership and execution to hold.
SELF-LEADERSHIP
Decide clearly under pressure.
Build the capacity to regulate reactions, create space, and stay grounded so decisions don’t default to urgency.
Create movement instead of hesitation, second-guessing, or everything waiting on you.
LEADERSHIP HABITS
Make responsibility move.
Shift the patterns that quietly pull leaders into reaction mode. Strengthen how ownership is held, how work moves forward, and how leaders show up when decisions carry weight.
Less escalation. Clear expectations. Follow-through people can rely on.
SYSTEMS THAT HOLD
Sustain progress.
Create simple rhythms, communication, and accountability so execution continues when pressure spikes or priorities shift.
Progress doesn't stall when you step back.
This work is supported by structured assessments, focused development plans, and practical tools and coaching conversations that turn insight into repeatable leadership behavior.

Client Testimonials
Some words from our clients
"The space you guided for reflection helped me see where I was defaulting to people pleasing and where I could step more fully into confidence…
I’ve set clear priorities around building trust in my team and making decisions that align with the kind of leader I actually want to be."

"Working in cannabis requires navigating constant change — and that’s exactly where Andrea’s coaching shines…
She helped me reconnect with the kind of leader I want to be: grounded, confident, and values-driven…
I now lead from clarity rather than chaos."
Elizabeth Sage
Founder/Sage Advice
"I was moving at a Mach three pace… getting the work done, but not taking care of myself or thinking about the organizational build.
Andrea helped me press pause long enough to think clearly and realize—I do know what to do."
