💎 🌿 I launched the Energy Leadership Advantage Mastermind because I have a fundamental belief that love, care, and belonging should exist in every workplace. For years, I’ve watched leaders carry the weight of responsibility, so often losing themselves in the process. They begin with the desire to inspire, yet they are exhausted. They want clarity, yet everything feels blurred. They want to lead with heart, yet the noise of doing, overshadows the meaning of being. That’s why I created Clarity 13, my executive, business, and leadership coaching practice and subsequently this 8-week group coaching mastermind experience as a different, yet incredibly impactful, hands-on and collaborative way of learning. The Energy Leadership Advantage Mastermind helps you reconnect to your energy, the lens through which you lead, communicate, and create. It’s where you rediscover clarity, confidence, and calm so you can lead yourself and others with genuine care and presence. If you’ve been searching for direction, this is where it begins. If you’ve been craving purpose, this is where you’ll find it again. 💫 Join me and a small circle of leaders ready to rise together from pressure to peace, from confusion to clarity. Spots are limited, and registration is ideal by November 20th. 📩 Email me directly at dora@clarity13.com for full details, to reserve your seat and/or ask a question. Let’s make this the season where your clarity and your leadership shine through. #EnergyLeadership #LeadershipDevelopment #ExecutiveCoaching #Clarity13 #MindfulLeadership #ConsciousLeadership #PersonalGrowth #SelfAwareness #Transformation #LeadershipJourney #LoveAndLeadership #PurposeDrivenLeadership

💫 Ever notice how leadership can start to feel… heavy? The constant decisions, the pace, the pressure to be “on” all the time. But what if you could lead with more clarity, ease, and energy, without sacrificing results? That’s exactly what the Energy Leadership Advantage Mastermind was created for. An 8-session, small-group experience for CEOs, business owners, and senior leaders who are ready to: 🌿 Reconnect to what fuels them and not what drains them 🌿 Lead from calm confidence instead of constant motion 🌿 Communicate with greater impact and authenticity 🌿 Create space for growth in themselves and their teams This isn’t about working harder. It’s about leading in a way that feels lighter, clearer, and more powerful. Only 12 leaders will be part of this exclusive group. If this message brings you a sense of relief… it’s probably for you. 🕊️ Email Dora@clarity13.com to learn more and to reserve your place. #EnergyLeadership #LeadershipMastermind #ExecutiveCoaching #LeadWithClarity #MindfulLeadership #EmotionalIntelligence #LeadershipDevelopment #EnergyLeadershipAdvantage #Clarity13 #ConsciousLeadership

💎 What if Clarity isn’t something you find, it is something YOU create? Many leaders come to me when the noise gets too loud. Their businesses are thriving, yet inside, something feels off. The energy that once fueled them now feels scattered. The vision that once inspired them feels cloudy. And that’s exactly where transformation begins. Through Clarity 13, I help leaders elevate how they lead, live, and show up. I do so by aligning their energy, mindset, and actions. And now, for the first time, I’m bringing that transformation into an 8-week mastermind experience: a high-touch, small-group journey designed to: ✨ Reignite your leadership energy ✨ Redefine what success looks and feels like ✨ Create clarity that fuels every decision you make This isn’t about more strategies. I’m sure like me, you may be tired of hearing this word. It’s about shifting how YOU show up. How you show up for your business, your team, and yourself. If you’re ready to lead with renewed energy and crystal-clear focus, I’d love to have you on this journey. 💫 Drop a “READY” below or message me directly to be among the first to learn more. #Leadership #EnergyLeadership #ExecutiveCoaching #Clarity13 #EnergyLeadershipAdvantageMastermind #ConsciousLeadership #BusinessGrowth #SelfLeadership #MindsetMatters #LeadWithHeart #ElevateYourEnergy @Clarity13.com

❤️GIVE Give of yourself, give of your time, give a smile, give your ear, give a meal, give the cashier the money for their coffee, give your support, give up some sleep, give up going to the gym one day, give help to someone who could use it. Give help to someone who could use your support, someone who could benefit in knowing that kindness exits. The greatest leaders are givers, they are not takers. They know that in giving, we received the greatest gift back. #HelpGiven #Empathy #GiversGainBNI #Clarity13 #ExecutiveCoach #BusinessCoach #LeadershipCoach #EnergyLeadershipMasterPracitcioner

💡Help Given: The Hidden Power of How Leaders Show Up 👉 Help Wanted? Not this week. This week is about Help Given ❤️ . The best leaders don’t just lead, they lift. They give help through clarity, presence, listening, and belief. They create space for others to rise. Because when you give help, you don’t lose power, you multiply it. Every leader says “my door is always open,” but few truly create environments where people feel safe enough to walk through it. This week, we will explore how giving help through clarity, presence, listening, and empathy transforms not only the leader’s impact, it improves the health and success of the entire organization. How are you giving help this week? #Leadership #EnergyLeadership #ExecutiveCoaching #Clarity13 #LeadWithHeart #BusinessLeadership #LeadershipDevelopment #CultureMatters #EmployeeEngagement #WorkplaceWellness #MindfulLeadership #PositiveLeadership @Clarity13.com

💡 This is leadership, this is community, this is support, this is connection, this is, showing up!!! As I thought about what I wanted to write more about this week, after such a high from last week’s “Women In HR Leadership’s Breakfast,” I decided I wanted to write about showing up for others. I reached this decision rather quickly scrolling through my recent pictures. My camera roll held photos of events, places, panels, interviews where someone else was on stage, where I attended someone else’s event and I was there to support, listen to and be inspired by THEM. In this viewing, I realized that I receive so much of my own inspiration as a leader comes from the people I surround myself with and from the people I seek out because I want to hear what they have to say. I want to hear their struggles; I want to hear what they overcame. I want to hear about how they succeeded! want to support them by being there for them. I actually don’t take that many pictures when I attend, as I am not there for the photo opportunity. I really am there for THEM. Just like my family, friends, clients, colleagues and humans are there for me. In each of the pictures below, there is a thread. A story. Individuals coming together to support each other, hear each other’s stories, maybe to be in each other’s pictures, to be at each other’s events. Each picture is of a time when I showed up for someone else, except for the first picture, when we showed up for each other. This week, I signed up to hear someone else’s story. I signed up and participated in someone else’s dream, to hear them, to listen closely, to be inspired. I learn so much from others and I also know how much it means to them when I show up. I know it isn’t always easy to show up for everyone else all the time. However, when you can, please do, as it means a lot ❤️ and I promise you, you will learn something by doing so! #HAVYNCoworking Community #ShowUpForOthers #Support #Community #Leadership @Clarity13.com

Happy Monday 🌿 ❤️ and a very big Thank YOU! Thank you to Tina Slocum, Jennifer Williamson, and Michelle Baptiste, SPHR, SHRM-SCP and all of the incredible women in HR leadership in CT that I had the wonderful opportunity to share “The Transformative Power of Energy Leadership” with Friday morning ✨ 🌿 ! The day, the conversation and the energy was ALL anabolic 💡 🚀 🌿 ! I’m incredibly grateful to have met so many new women who share in a fundamental belief that we CAN create incredibly lead workplaces when we embody and when we lead with positive, growth oriented and empowering energy ✨ ❤️ ! #executivecoach #leadershipcoach #BusinessCoach #womeninhrleadership #clarity @Clarity13.com

👉 “The fastest way to transform your business isn’t strategy-it’s your energy as a leader.” For years as an HR executive, I coached leaders to behave to culture, and together we built workplaces people were proud to be part of. The results? Exceptional teams, thriving businesses, and cultures that attracted and kept the very best talent. Businesses that made every quarter, bonuses got paid and stock prices soared. Every Time. Now, as an Executive, Business & Leadership Coach and Energy Leadership Master Practitioner, I help CEOs, business owners, and leaders do the same. By transforming their inner energy so their outer impact is undeniable. If you have the courage and openness to grow, I am all in for you. Are you ready to elevate your energy, your culture, and your results? Let’s connect. #ExecutiveCoaching #LeadershipCoach #EnergyLeadership #CultureByDesign #TransformationalLeadership #BusinessSuccess #Clarity13

🔋Monday Energy Check In!

💡 Busy leaders don’t move business forward. 🚀 Clear Leaders do. Clarity is not a “nice to have” in business. It’s the difference between leading with impact or leading into chaos. When I work with CEOs, business owners, and leaders, the biggest breakthrough usually comes when they stop chasing every demand and gain true clarity. Clarity on their vision, priorities, and leadership style. That’s when alignment happens. Teams stop spinning, execution sharpens, and the business begins to thrive. Clarity is what transforms a good leader into an extraordinary one. The question I always ask my clients: Are you being clear, or just busy? Then, we do the critical work to literally move them, their team and their business forward. If you are tired of doing a bunch of stuff, yet not actually moving forward, let’s have a conversation on how I can help you. Send me a dm here. Clarity is everything in life and in business. #LeadershipClarity #ClearLeadership #ExecutiveCoaching #StrategicLeadership #BusinessGrowth #LeadWithPurpose @Clarity13.com

Clarity changes everything. In business and in life, lack of clarity leads to: ▶️ Wasted Time ▶️Missed Opportunities ▶️Stress and frustration When you get clear on your vision, priorities, values and next steps, decisions become easier, communication is sharper, and momentum builds naturally. Imagine sharing this clarity with your entire team. What would that do for your workplace and for your business? Clarity isn’t a luxury-it’s a leadership advantage. Where in your life and in your business could greater clarity create the greatest impact right now? Clarity 13 is the Clear Advantage to Your Business. I coach my clients to create clear, positive, healthy and successful workplaces and businesses and it always starts with getting super clear. #Clarity #ExecutiveCoach #BusinessCoach #LeadershipCoach #EnergyLeadershipMasterPraciticoner #TheClearAdvantageForYourBusiness @Clarity13.com

Why is Clarity critical in life and in business?

🙏 ❤️ Thank You For... Generic “thanks everyone” feels nice, yet doesn’t ignite. Think about it, what are you “thanking everyone” for? Specific, genuine appreciation does. That’s it. It’s really quite simple. 💡 84% of associates say recognition motivates them (I think the number is actually higher, yet ok). Companies with strong recognition programs see 31% lower turnover (what about the associates who are still technically working, yet unmotivated-what kind of performance will this bring?). When you say exactly what someone did, why it mattered, and how it made a difference-you signal: I see you. You’re valued. You matter. Please keep doing this behavior. The critical part here is that you mean it. I mean, that you are authentic in your appreciation and that you are not doing it to check off a box. Your associates will know if that is the case. Trust me. 👉 Instead of “Great job,” try: “Thank you for leading that client call with such clarity-it built trust and moved the process forward. This project means a great deal to me, our team and our company, as it now gets us even closer to meeting our overall company goal of accomplishing this project smoothly by year end.” Specific appreciation that is genuine and real, fuels performance, loyalty, and confidence. So, let’s stop saying “thanks for everything” and start with “Thank you for...” #Leadership #AssociateRecognition #GratitudeInAction #ExecutiveCoach #BusinessCoach #EnergyLeadershipMasterPracitcioner #ClearPositiveHealthyandSuccessful #Clarity13 @Clarity13.com

❤️Thank You For... Supporting and placing your trust in me to help you, to be there for you, to support you and to coach you to shine, to help you create clear, positive, healthy and successful workplaces and businesses through your incredible leadership 🙏 💡 ✨ 🌿 🚀 ❤️ !!! As I just celebrated Clarity 13’s 2 Year Anniversary on 9.13.2025 (my relaunch, after being recruited for almost 5 years and placing my coaching practice on the back burner), I want to say Thank You to my family, friends, colleagues who supported me, my clients who trusted me with everything in order to do the real, deep work we needed to do for them and for their business and for their personal lives and to everyone who has been in my corner throughout. We all need each other. Never underestimate the true power of the real support, love and care you provide to another person, to a friend, to a family member, to a colleague. I know I don’t take it for granted and I am truly blessed to do the the real, transformative work I get to do with my clients, for them and for their well deserving teams and for the health and success of their business. This week it is all about being genuinely grateful and saying “Thank You For... Believing in Me, Supporting Me, Showing Up for Me, Trusting Me, Referring Me and Being in My Corner Always!” As CEO’s, Business Owners, Leaders and Humans, Let’s take the time to say “Thank You For...(you fill in the blanks and be genuine, be clear and mean it deep in your heart) everyone who supports us and without them, we simply would not be the same and would not have the fuel to keep going and keep achieving our dreams. Thank you ❣️ #Happy2YearAnniversaryClarity13 #ThankYou #ExecutiveCoach #BusinessCoach #EnergyLeadershipMasterPracticioner #TheBestWorkplace #ClearPositiveHealthyandSuccessful @Clarity13.com

We are Human First, it’s All About Them❤️! Let’s always place love, care and support above everything ❤️!!!

🔥 It’s All About Them. You can have the title, the corner office, and the strategy deck polished to perfection. None of it matters (I’ve seen it time and time again), if your team isn’t engaged. Without your team’s genuine buy-in, your “vision” is just words on paper. Their buy-in started during the recruitment process, during their onboarding, during every interaction you have had with them. Leadership isn’t about proving how brilliant you are-it’s about making sure they believe enough to move the mission forward. There is nothing that feels better and positively influences your bottom line than a leader who knows without a doubt, that “It’s All About Them.” If creating this exceptional business is something you know you want to do and yet aren’t sure where or how to begin, know that helping you create a vibrant workplace, engaged and empowered teams, an outstanding business is what I do best. #ItsAllAboutThem #ExecutiveCoach #BusinessCoach #ExceptionalWorkplace #EnergyLeadershipMasterPracticioner #PeopleMatter #Engagement #Empowered #Clarity13 @Clarity13.com

🔥 CEO’s, business owners and leaders please stop thinking that leadership and success is about you. It’s not. Leadership is always about your team, your associates, everyone you employ and everyone you interact with in your life and in your business. Your team is NOT focused on you, they care about one fundamental thing and that is HOW YOU TREAT THEM and HOW YOU TREAT EVERYONE. Stop focusing on YOU. When was the last time, you took the time to make sure your team was happy, that they were feeling as if they were paid well, that they felt empowered to do creative work for your company, that they felt valued, heard, understood, cared for? Your team wants to work hard for you, they want to have a workplace and work that they love, they want to do their very best. They want you and them to be successful. They want all of this, until you mess it up. So, stop messing it up by saying one thing and doing another. Stop messing it up by saying their valued and then not giving them what you or your team promised them. How would you feel if it was done to you? You wouldn’t like it and you wouldn’t stay motivated. This week we are talking about a fundamental belief-Leadership is not about you, it’s all about them! It will be my pleasure to help you do just this. We will create a clear, positive, healthy and successful workplace together!!! #Itsallaboutthem #Leaderhsip #ExecutiveCoach #CreatingExceptionalWorkplaces #BusinessCoach #EnergyLeadershipMasterPracticioner @Clarity13 @Clarity13.com

✨ New Beginnings ✨ Two Years ago, on 9.13.23 I had my own new beginning. I created Clarity 13, my Executive, Business and Leadership Coaching practice. Like any new beginning, it came with excitement and challenges, and unknowns-yet also with such possibility. What started as a vision many years prior was solidified on 9.13.2023. Today, Clarity 13 is my practice, my very own business, where I get to coach leaders, teams, and individuals as they step into their own new beginnings. My dream of helping people show up in their very best selves to create clear, positive, healthy and successful workplaces and businesses is alive and flourishing! I had to start somewhere and could not let my dream die. As I celebrate Clarity 13’s 2-year anniversary, I’m reflecting on what new beginnings really mean: 🌿 They ask us to be brave enough to start. 🌿 They remind us that clarity creates space for growth. 🌿 They show us that transformation is possible-at any time. Here’s to the next chapter-for me, for Clarity 13, and for all of you stepping into your own new beginnings. 🚀 #ExecutiveCoach #NewBeginnings #Clarity13 #BusinessCoach #Leadership #EnergyLeadershipMasterPracticioner @Clarity13.com

🌿 New Beginnings don’t always mean big leaps (although they absolutely could) Sometimes they’re as simple as: ✨ Setting a new boundary ✨ Trying a fresh approach ✨ Choosing to see yourself differently Big or small-every beginning matters. It’s the choice to start that creates momentum. Trying something new may feel daunting. Maybe it’s the starting that seems impossible. By not trying, not starting, we are not giving ourselves a chance to fulfill what is inside of us, gnawing for change. That inner voice that says, “I want to be/do/have something different.” 💡 I’d love to know: What “new beginning” are you stepping into right now? Or, what new beginning do you keep postponing? I will help you take your inner world in life and in business and create your outer world, to match what you’ve always dreamt of. #NewBeginnings #LeadershipCoaching #ExecutiveCoaching #BusinessCoaching #Clarity13 #TheClearAdvantageforYourBusiness @Clarity13.com

New Beginnings 🌿✨❤️

The Clear Advantage for Your Business The most successful leaders don’t just manage strategy. They master themselves 💡 . Because culture, clarity, and growth always begin with the inner work. That’s what I help CEOs, business owners, and leaders do-when you are clear, your team, your company moves with clarity. When you are scattered, your culture feels it. Nothing will change until you do the work on the inside. Leadership transformation is an inside job. Curious? Everything starts with a conversation. Let’s have one! #InnerWorldOuterWorld #NothingChangesUntilWeDo #LeadershipCoach #BusinessCoach #ExecutiveCoach #EnergyLeadershipMasterPracticioner @Clarity13.com

Our Inner World Reflects In Our Outer World-Happy Monday 💡 ❤️ 💫 ! This week, we are reflecting on how our inner world (how we think and more importantly, how we feel) reflects in our outer world, our physical space and how our physical environment dramatically influences how we are feeling. This is not a new concept. In fact, take a moment to assess your space. Your desk, your office, your car, your home, your digital life. What is your space telling you? Last week, I had the privilege of cofacilitating a feature presentation at our The Westport BNI meeting with Bridget Flynn , the owner of Divine Organizing. We helped our colleagues do just that. We helped them think about how the way they are (or have been feeling), is reflecting in their outer world. We talked about the science of energy and how we can literally change how we are feeling by changing our thoughts, in order to reflect in our outer world (the work that I do with my clients). Additionally, by changing our physical space (the work that Bridget does with her clients), we can change how we are feeling and change our outlook. Whether you are a CEO, solopreneur, or creative, your environment tells a story about your mindset, emotions and leadership style. Energy Leadership teaches us that our inner state operates on levels-from stress to flow. Our physical environment either reflects or reinforces those levels. It’s not just your desk. Your car, your digital life, your kitchen – even your phone – reflect your state of being. Our physical space is the blueprint of our inner world. So, how can you shift your energetic profile (the thing that determines your success)? ● Start with awareness (Energy Assessment) ● Shift the internal energy (coaching) ● Align your space (organizing) We CAN create Clear, Positive, Healthy and Successful Lives, Workplaces and Businesses. Let us help show you how! #innerworldouterworld #ourlifeisamirror #executivecoach #BusinessCoach #EnergyLeadershipMasterPracticioner @Clarity13.com

Happy Friday ✨ ❤️ !!! We’ve dedicated this week to talking about how fundamental it is to build and to maintain genuine relationships with your team, with your leaders, with your clients at work. Humans want to feel included, to feel valued, cared for and part of something meaningful. Purposeful. When we take the time to invest in building real relationships, we create connection that is far deeper than “I need you to take care of this or that” at work. We know when we are simply being delegated to or when we are truly valued and empowered. There is a dramatic difference and the first just makes us feel badly, taken advantage of, not cared about at all. I have had the wonderful opportunity to work for and coach to create exceptional leaders who know the difference and make it their purpose to lead with love, care and boy do they see their results in their team and in their bottom line! Want to learn how to be an exceptional CEO, business owner and leader? Let me show you how to build the most empowered team and relationship with everyone you touch 💫 . #GenuineRelationships #ExecutiveCoach #BusinessCoach #EnergyLeadershipMasterPracticioner #Clarity13 @Clarity13.com

💡 ❤️ Leadership isn’t about transactions-it’s about relationships. Not long ago, I was speaking with a client who felt disconnected from their leadership team. On paper, everything looked fine-meetings were happening, tasks were being completed-but the spark was missing. My client felt it and you can bet their team felt it too. When we dug deeper, they realized they had been focusing almost entirely on getting things done and forgot about continuing to get to know the people doing them. They were busy, the team was busy, auto-pilot set in. After my client realized what had happened and why, he shifted his leadership meetings back to to creating genuine conversations, asking questions, and truly listening. Everything changed. The team immediately began to feel more valued, more engaged, and by continuing to strengthen his relationships with his leadership team, the results also improved naturally. ✨ This is the power of genuine relationships. As CEOs, business owners, and leaders, we set the tone. People sense when we’re only showing up for the transaction-and no one is inspired by that. What truly drives trust, loyalty and lasting success is building authentic connections where people feel seen, heard and valued. At the end of the day, no one wants to feel like a line item on your to-do list. They want to feel like a human being in a relationship with you. How are you showing up to create genuine, long-lasting connections in your leadership? I am here to help you show up authentically, building long-lasting and genuine relationships with everyone. #GenuineRelationships #AuthenticLeadership #ExecutiveCoach #BusinessCoach #EnergyLeadershipMasterPracticioner #Clarity13

All In This week we are talking about what it means to be “All In!” Let me demonstrate the difference between a business that is “All In” and one that is not. This past weekend, my fiancé and I celebrated our 10 Year Anniversary of being together. We booked our favorite place in Manchester, VT-The Inn At Manchester, VT for our getaway (the pictures here are from there). Let me start by saying, the Inn Keepers at The Inn At Manchester (Brian and Gabby) are “All In” and so is their entire team! We wanted to stay longer than the 3 nights we planned way in advance and unfortunately, they were booked (and there is a reason they are), so we decided to try a new place just for 2 nights before. The place we chose was a place we have always wanted to try, as it looked beautiful and seemed to be well kept. It cost much more than our stay at The Inn At Manchester, yet what the heck, it was our 10 Year Anniversary. The experience we had at this new place (new to us) was definitely not an “All In” experience. In fact, out of 10, I’d rate it about a 4-5. Although beautiful, this Inn lacked “life,” “energy,” and I’d say what was missing from the leadership was “care.” We checked out when our stay was over and as we were doing so, the Inn Keeper read from her computer notes and wished us a “Happy 10 Year Anniversary, may you have a continued good journey, etc., etc.” She never looked up, just read. No warmth, no eye contact, no real relationship created from the beginning of our stay. Just someone who went through the motions only. I will not share every detail that created in us a feeling that we will never go back again. This business owner was not “All In.” and everyone felt it. The customers, I bet the staff, everyone who interacts with the business. In time, what will happen to this beautiful Inn? We then checked into “The Inn At Manchester, VT.” We were immediately welcomed and greeted by Todd, who carried our luggage to our favorite room, where there was a a bottle of our favorite Cabernet, with a hand written note wishing us a “Happy 10-Year Anniversary from Your Inn Family.” These Inn Keepers, business owners, entire team, is consistently “All In.”

All In You are a CEO, a business owner, a leader and you are getting just ok results. This could be in one aspect of your business, or across the board. Pause and reflect for a few moments. Ask yourself if you are giving it your all. I mean, are you completely invested in your business, or are you “hoping for the best,” “seeing how things go,” and/or “waiting to see how so and so will perform.” Now, think about another time you’ve had this same approach to something. Anything. At work or at home. In life. How did it turn out? Here’s the deal in life, in our businesses and with our teams-In leadership, there’s no halfway. Our people feel it when we’re distracted. Our companies suffer when we hold back. Our businesses stall when we hesitate. Being “All In” means showing up-fully present, fully committed, and fully aligned with our values. It means leading with clarity, even in uncertainty. It means caring for both results and people. It means believing in ourselves completely. When we are all in, we inspire others to be the same. And that’s when workplaces become clear, positive, healthy and successful. So, ask yourself-are you all in? I’m here to help you completely understand why in business and in life, we must be “All In.” #AllIn #ExecutiveCoach #BusinessCoach #EnergyLeadershipMasterPracticioner #Clarity13

Let’s get personal. I’ll share first. No fear for me means, stop worrying. My fear has traditionally played out as worry and it has always created resistance. It takes me away from all that is good, all that is absolutely beautiful in my life and in my work. I’ve had to work on this myself and it wasn’t until I became aware of this state of worrying and how it became paralyzing either in moments during the day, or in the middle of the night, when I decided I needed to stop. I often worried as I was anticipating a full day without much downtime, a new project maybe I haven’t worked on just yet or fearing some part of my life and work that just wasn’t feeling right to me. This is when I decided to ask myself, “What if I wasn’t worried at all about this?” What if I thought about this thing that I was previously worried about, what if I thought about it with excitement? WOW, everything literally changed in that moment. Fear, which I know to be 100% catabolic, draining, destructive, distracting energy was GONE and I felt amazing, excited and now approaching my initiative, project, thing that wasn’t where I wanted it to be in my life with enthusiasm, joy and literally anticipation!!! Today, I help many clients do this, eliminate their fear when fear sneaks in and even when fear has been a constant in their work and personal lives. I’m here to help you. Help you in your life, help you in your business. Now, your turn! How about sharing how you have eliminated fear when it has snuck in? #NoFear #NoWorry #ExecutiveCoach #BusinessCoach #EnergyLeadershipMasterPraciticioner #Transformation @Clarity13.com

No Fear. Fear is sneaky. It doesn’t always show up as panic or terror. Sometimes it whispers in your mind: -“What if I fail?” -“What will they think?” -“I’m not ready.” -“Maybe I’ll wait a little longer.” This is Level 1 energy in action-where fear creates resistance, and resistance keeps us small. We don’t take the leap. We shrink. We hide. We Overthink. We stall. And that fear? It feels real. It can trigger anxiety. It can paralyze. However, here is the truth: It’s often just a story we’re telling ourselves. So, what if we asked this question instead? 💡 “What would I do if I had zero fear?” -Not less fear. -Not managing the fear. -No. Fear. At. All. Try it now. Think of something that you are worried about, you are fearful of. Pause. Ask Yourself: What if I had no fear. What would I do? Ahhhh... 💫 I take my clients through this exercise and they literally relax, smile and proceed to tell me exactly what they would do. Exactly how they would approach the situation. When we remove all fear, a clearer, brighter, more aligned and more alive person shows up. Resistance vanishes. As an executive and leadership coach, I help my clients see when fear is making their decisions for them-consciously or unconsciously. I then help them shift their energy so they can make choices from clarity, power, and purpose-not from fear. This one simple question “What would I do if I had no fear?” can change everything? So, what is your answer? #Leaderhsip #EnergyLeadership #NoFearCoaching #SelfAwareness #LevelUP @Clarity13.com

No Subscription Needed (continued). Every single one of us has everything we need to create the life and company of our dreams. We literally can create everything we want for ourselves and for our teams. As a an executive coach I believe this, without doubt. The question is do you? Just like a gardener who cultivates a beautiful garden by eliminating what stops it from growing, I coach my clients to uncover (concretely) what is stopping them. And then, we eliminate it. It begins with one step, just like everything we have created so far. I’m here to help you create a clear, positive, healthy and successful (you) and business, so will you take the first step? Real, deep, transformative work and no subscription is needed. #RealTransformation #ExecutiveCoach #NoSubscriptionNeeded #WeHaveEverythingWeNeed #BusinessCoach #Leadership #EnergyLeadershipMasterPractitioner #Clarity13

No Subscription Needed. We live in a world of endless subscriptions-auto-renewing promises of transformation. Yet, we know intuitively that real, lasting change deosn’t come in a box or through a one-size-fits-all model. My work isn’t mass-produced. It’s one-on-one, transformative, and rooted in deep connection, trust, and truth. No funnels. No fluff. Just real work with real people who are ready to create something better-for themselves and the people they lead. You do not need another subscription. You just need the willingness to show up, dig deep, and do the work. That’s what I do with my clients at Clarity 13. Not quick fixes, yet deep, lasting change. When you are ready and honestly, this is all you need to start, I’m here. #ExecutiveCoaching #LeadershipDevelopment #AuthenticLeadership #Clarity13 #EnergyLeadership #NoSubscriptionNeeded #RealWorkRealChange @Clarity13.com

Organizational Coherence doesn’t happen by accident. It’s built intentionally, consistently, and rationally. One of the most overlooked (yet powerful) drivers of a high-performing, resilient culture is simple: 💬Regular, real connection -Not just status updates -Not just fire drills or performance reviews 💬Genuine, intentional structured time for: -Alignment, clarity, and shared energy As an executive and leadership coach, I’ve seen (and coached leaders to create) this over and over: Organizations that pause to align-daily, weekly, monthly and quarterly-perform better, retain people longer, and move faster with far less friction. As and Energy Leadership Master Practitioner, I also know that energy is contagious. When a team feels disconnected, disjointed, or unclear-even the most talented people will drift, disengage, or burn out. Yet, when an organization prioritizes coherence through regular team connection-people remember why there are here. They refocus. Re-energize. Recommit. This is once again when real traction sets in. At Clarity 13, this is one of the most transformational shifts I help leaders make: To stop assuming alignment will “just happen,” and start building rhythms where clarity, energy, and vision are cultivated. When was the last time your team got together-not to report-yet to reconnect? Building a clear, positive, healthy and successful you, team, workplace and company is worth it. You do not need to do so alone. #Leadership #Executivecoaching #OrganizationalCoherence #EnergyLeadership #TeamAlignment #Clarity13

Most businesses don’t fail because of strategy-they fail because of misalignment. You can have the best product, the smartest team, and the strongest plan...yet, if your company lacks organizational coherence, things unravel. When there’s coherence-clarity of purpose, aligned values, healthy communication and trust-everything flows: -Decisions are easier -Teams move faster -Culture strengthens -Results flow This is the work that I care most about. Helping CEOs, business owners, and leadership teams build real alignment from the inside out. Not with off-the-shelf solutions, yet with deep, human-centered and long-lasting transformation. If you’re leading a team, a company and feel the cracks-tension, friction, confusion-this is your sign to focus inward. Organizational coherence isn’t a nice-to-have. It’s your foundation. Let’s talk if you’re ready to build it. #Leadership #BusinessHealth #Alignnment #ExecutiveCoaching #OrganizationalCoherence #Clarity @Clarity13.com

😍 Happy Friday Everyone! I promised some pictures and here they are! It wasn’t easy to capture our family reunion and family vacation trip to Greece and all it meant to me, to our family, yet I’ve tried to post some of the pictures that really made me smile. I spent some time leading up to our trip talking about how important it is for us as leaders to demonstrate how important it is to relax, recharge and renew. How it is truly a meaningful leadership strategy to build into our companies and to model it ourselves. The benefits of stepping away, even if it is for a day a few days, a week, a few weeks or more are priceless. Who benefits when we do this? Everyone. Imagine building a team and a company that encourages and models real time away from work? I promise you this is a company that lives it’s values and truly cares about it’s employees. I’d love to help you build one! #leadership #wellbeing #burnoutprevention #peoplefirstculture #executivecoach #businesscoach #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner #Clarity13 @Clarity13.com

Leaders, we must stop glorifying burnout. As an executive, business, and leadership coach-and longtime HR executive-I know the pressure to keep going is real. Yet, here is the truth: We lead best when we step away. Not just for ourselves, yet for the people who count on us. I’ve been guilty most of my life of downplaying my own need to step away. Often just taking long weekends and not really taking any significant amount of time to truly unwind. My own beliefs somehow justified this for myself. Does this feel familiar? Guess, what? No more! This summer, I’m walking the walk and reminding my clients to do the same. To: 🌿 Relax-Let go of the constant doing 🔋 Recharge-Refuel your energy, mind, and body 💡 Renew-Return with clarity, perspective, and purpose Your impact grows when you take time to pause. Leadership isn’t about pushing forward-it’s also about knowing when to breathe. How are you making space to relax, recharge and renew? #Leadership #ExecutiveCoaching #EnergyLeadership #BurnoutPrevention #Wellbeing #Clarity13

Beyond Grateful for our Family Reunion and Vacation in Greece 🙏🇬🇷❤️☀️🌊!!!

With the second half of 2025 in front of us, let’s also remember how important it is to take time to celebrate, reflect and recharge! Happy 4th of July Everyone 💫 ❤️ 🤍 💙 !

July 2nd marks the midpoint of the year (it is just 2 days away)-a powerful moment to pause and refocus. As a coach and former HR executive, I guide leaders to create clear, positive, healthy and successful workplaces. Now is the perfect time to move forward with GRACE: ✨ Goals-Recommit to what matters most ✨ Reassess-What’s working? What’s not? ✨ Align-Realign your energy and actions with your values ✨ Communicate-Clearly and consistently ✨ Energize-Take intentional action toward what is next Mid-year isn’t a checkpoint-it’s a launchpad. How will you lead with GRACE into the second half? #Leadership #ExecutiveCoaching #EnergyLeadership #MidYearReset #WorkplaceWellness #clarity13

Control. It can be grounding-or suffocating. Let me explain... In my years as an executive and coach, I’ve seen how the desire for control often stems from good intentions: a need for order, excellence, and outcomes. However, too much control? That’s where stress builds, creativity stalls, and micromanagement creeps in. The paradox is this: the most effective leaders focus less on controlling others and more on mastering self-control-their mindset, energy, and responses. That’s where clarity, influence, and trust begin to grow. What is your relationship with control? Where does it serve you-and where might it be holding you and others back? It’s not easy to admit that we may just have more to learn about how we can be living and working and influencing others with a lot less stress. I will help show you how! #Leadership #ExecutiveCoachong #EnergyLeadership #WorkplaceWellbeing #ClarityInLeadership @Clarity13.com

Happy Monday Everyone!!! Yes, it is Monday and depending on so many things, as CEO’s, business owners, leaders and humans, how we are experiencing our Monday’s has so much to do with how well we are aligned with our work and personal lives. Do we bounce out of bed on Monday with a feeling of we can’t wait to embrace the day, knowing we are creating the life of our dreams or do Monday’s feel a far cry from this description? I promise you that your life is a mirror of your thoughts and this can feel exhilarating or frightening, or some combination. I also promise you that you can create the life of your dreams. I sure can help you do just that!!! I spend a great deal time working on myself. And, just like the work I do with my clients, it is not with judgment, yet it is with great love, awareness and desire to live my very best life and to help my clients do the very same. To help create exceptional, unreasonably vibrant businesses, environments, family lives and workplaces. With this said, I am dedicating this week’s conversation to “control.” Yes, control. My question to you is: “What is the right amount of control and when does control benefit everyone”? Think about all types of control, self-control, control over others, controlling a project, a company, your home life, family. Everything that comes to mind. I want to hear all of your thoughts on control and does it serve us, serve others? If so, when? Is control anabolic, meaning highly positive and freeing? Is it more catabolic, distracting and destructive. What do you think? I’ll have more to share once I hear back from all of you. I’d love your thoughts on the topic of control!!! Have a wonderful Monday! #control #executivecoach #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner #businesscoach #anabolicvscatabolicenergy @Clarity13.com

Happy Friday Everyone!!! My Story continued…. When Lovesac recruited me, I put my coaching practice on hiatus to work with a dynamic company that had just gone public. The energy and the intention were palatable—from the company’s guiding principles and values and leadership team to the incredible opportunity I could see to bring their culture to life. In my time as Senior Vice President of People and Culture, I created our People Strategy that put employees first, in a real culture of care, belonging, engagement and empowerment. Throughout my career and personal life, I’ve experienced so many high’s and and a few crushing lows that took everything (my faith, belief in good and knowledge I’ve gained) to overcome. The difficult moments made me even more compassionate, empathetic and oh so, determined to continue my lifelong journey of helping others. Today, I am the Founder and CEO of Clarity 13, the culmination of my passion, experience, and lifelong learning. I help business owners and CEOs create clear, positive, healthy, and successful workplaces. Learn even more @Clarity13.com.

The first part of my story… Stayed tuned for part two later this week! I am a Certified Professional Coach, Energy LeadershipTM Index Master Practitioner, business owner, leader, and a long-time human resource professional (PHR). My passion is and has always been people and business. Growing up in my parent’s diner in working-class Danvers, Mass., I developed a gift of engaging both customers and employees, making them feel welcome and valued. From a young age, I understood how this creates an exceptional business. Furthering my keen interest in human behavior, I earned a degree in psychology from the University of Vermont. After graduation, I began a career with one of the world’s largest retail companies, Jones Apparel Group, where over 22 years, I had leadership roles in sales, operations, training, development and human resources. As Vice President of Human Resources, I was responsible for approximately 14,000 corporate and retail employees, with a personal goal of helping people from the C-suite to the loading dock and gradually shifting the culture of this huge company to a place where everyone felt respected and that their contributions were appreciated. 14,000 people, aligned, engaged, successful. Moving to Yves Saint Laurent for the Americas in a VP role, I built a people-centric culture throughout the region during a time of rapid growth. At the same time, I gained international work experience, creating bridges to our team members in our French home office and other countries of operations. My time there was challenging and rewarding, yet I understood there was a different path for me to use my experience and insights on a different scale—this time, helping executives, business owners and individuals who want to optimize their work and personal lives. I enrolled in a certification program and rooted my personal philosophy in the transformative power of one-to-one work, which helped inform my coaching practice with a focus on individuals. More to come later this week…

Share your Story! Happy Monday Everyone! This week, we are not going to be afraid to share our story. When I work with my clients, they answer many questions. What a surprise, a coach and prior HR person asking lot’s of questions 🤣, now that’s different! One of the most critical ones we answer is “Why”? Why did they start their company? Why are they doing what they are doing? Why are they drawn to doing it in this manner? We dig in deep and we get to the heart of it. Then, I ask them to share their story with their senior leaders, with their associates, with their family, with their clients, with their customers. They often look at me funny. They do not always understand just how much it matters to their team, to everyone they interact with to their business. Our “Why” reveals who we are at our core. When we share it, we are sharing who we are and this is what draws other to us. This is who we all want to know. We want to know, your strengths, your struggles, everything. So, this week, share your story with your team and if you need some help figuring it all out and putting it together clearly, I’m here to help you. I help you create clear, positive, healthy, and successful workplaces and it starts with sharing YOU! Later this week, I’ll share mine ❤️ . #shareyourstory #startwithwhy #executivecoach #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner #businesscoach @Clarity13.com

❤️ Happy Friday! I hope you all had a wonderful week! Let me share some final thoughts about Retention as we close out this work week. What I’d like to remind all of my CEO’s, business owners and top leaders is Retention isn’t about keeping people, keeping our associates from leaving or keeping our clients. It’s this: Retention is about valuing our associates, our clients. Retentions is about making all efforts to make sure they are happy, engaged and growing. It’s not complicated whatsoever. It’s being human and caring. The most successful workplaces today aren’t just productive-they’re energized, healthy and human-centered. When leaders prioritize clarity, connection and culture, retention stops being an ongoing challenge and becomes a natural outcome. Let’s build companies people do not want to leave. Let me coach you to create a Clear, Positive, Healthy and Successful Workplace and transform your business! #Retention #PeopleFirst #Care #ExecutiveCoach #LeadershipCoach #BusinessCoach #EnergyLeadershipMasterPracticioner @Clarity13.com

Retention isn’t about perks. It’s always about People. After decades in HR, coaching leaders and studying what truly drives performance, one truth stands out: 👉 People stay where they feel seen, valued and respected-consistently. Not just during performance reviews. Not just after a win. All. The. Time. Retention isn’t a program-it’s a promise. A promise to lead with empathy. To recognize potential. To create safety, not just strategy. To treat every associate and client like they matter-because they do. If you are losing people, start here: How are they experiencing you? #Leadership #Retention #EmployeeExperience #Coaching #HumanResources #EnergyLeadership #PeopleFirst @Clarity13.com

Retention-Happens as a result of how you treat your employees and your clients😃❤️✨

🧑‍🎨👩‍🎨🖌️🌟Creation Happens at Level 7 A client recently came to me feeling stuck-bright, driven, successful on paper, yet creatively blocked. Every solution felt forced. Every decision, reactive. Through our work together, we explored the 7 levels of energy in detail. It wasn’t until he accessed Level 7 -the energy of non-judgement, possibility, and pure creation-that everything shifted. He stopped asking “What should I do?” and started asking “What wants to be created through me?” From that space, ideas flowed. Strategy became aligned. His confidence wasn’t restored-it was redefined. This is what I love most about coaching: helping people unlock the power that’s already within them. Level 7 isn’t about forcing or fixing. It’s about allowing. And when we access it, we create not just success, we create meaning. What’s possible for you when you stop reacting-and start creating? #Leadership #EnergyLeadership #ExecutiveCoaching #Level7Energy #ConsciousLeadership #CreativeLeadership @Clarity13.com

Happy Monday! CEO’s, business owners and leaders, you can create anything you can imagine💫 ! Whether you are looking to transform every aspect of your life and/or your business, or simply address the areas that no longer serve you. Know this, you CAN! This week, let me share a personal story to kick us off. Throughout my life, I spent many years in corporate America as the head of People and Culture (HR). I loved my work and most of all, I truly loved helping the companies I worked for to create something different. Something that unfortunately many companies just don’t get to and sadly, don’t even try. What I wanted to create were companies and workplaces that genuinely cared about their employees, treated them as humans and empowered each of them to be exceptional in their work. It wasn’t magic, it was simply a deep, genuine belief I held. I believed (without doubt) that by treating everyone really well, we would create a vibrant company filled with really fantastic employees and in time, exceptional results. I wasn’t always sure how I would execute this transformation, I just knew that I/we would. It all started with an image (and a knowing) and ended with very engaged employees, real tangible, measurable positive results, increased market share. It all started with a vision, just like everything else in my life (and in yours). After over 30 years of helping about 3 companies create these exceptional workplaces, it was time to make another big change myself and once again, I needed to create . And, so I did. Today, I help many companies and leaders transform their workplaces and themselves through my Clarity 13, LLC Executive, business and leadership coaching practice. If I can do it, you CAN do it too and I will who you how! BRANDCELLENCE #executivecoach; #businesscoach; #leadershipcoach; #create; #transformation @Clarity13.com

Happy Friday! Are You Truly Free Or Just Operating on Autopilot? One of the most powerful transformations I witness in my clients is the moment they realize that we are only as free as we believe we are. 🔐Many high-achieving leaders feel trapped-by roles, routines, expectations. They “think” they’re making free choices...yet often, they are reacting based on conditioned beliefs, fear of failure, or need for approval. Think about this...Are you? This is where our work begins. As an executive and leadership coach and Energy Leadership Master Practitioner, I help clients: ✅Pause the autopilot ✅Question the internal narratives ✅Reclaim their power to choose-consciously, courageously, and intentionally 💡Free will isn’t just a concept-it’s a practice. And when leaders learn to apply it, they don’t just change how they lead-they change how they live. Personally, I’ve walked this journey too. The freedom I now live and coach from didn’t come from a title or by the books I surround myself with. This authentic, free will came from doing the deep, inner work to become the author of my own story. ✍️So, I ask you: Where in your life or leadership are you acting free, but actually stuck in default mode? And, what could shift if you realized you had more choice than you think? 🔂It starts with awareness. It leads to transformation. Let’s talk if you are ready to lead-and live-from true freedom. #Leadership #ExecutiveCoaching #EnergyLeadership #ConsciousLeadership #FreeWill #MindsetShift #ProfessionalDevelopment @Clarity13.com

Reflecting on Memorial Day & Freedom This Memorial Day, we honored those who gave everything for their freedom. As we reflect on their courage, we’re reminded: freedom isn’t a national value-it’s a very personal one. What holds us back from our freedom in our workplace? In our own lives? From everything we want and all that we are destined to become? Too often, CEO’s, business owners, leaders and simply all of us, as humans feel bound by invisible chains: ⚙️Limiting beliefs ⏳Fear of failure 📉Self-doubt True leadership begins when we choose to break free-from within. To have the courage to become unbound by our own chains. When we experience this, we never want to go back. What would it look like to lead with the same courage it takes to defend freedom? This week, I invite you to honor their legacy by choosing your freedom: ✨Freedom to lead boldly (without fear) ✨Freedom to show up fully ✨Freedom to become who you’re meant to be #MemorialDayFreedom #Leadership #FreedomToLead #EnergyLeadership #Transformation #ExecutiveCoaching #BusinessCoaching @Clarity13.com

🙏 ❤️ Thank you to all who have served and continue to serve our country. We remember and honor you on this upcoming Memorial Day and always.

💡 🧠 👑 👏 Understanding Ego What is Ego Really? -Ego is a noun and it is a person’s self-esteem or self-importance. It’s the part of the mind that mediates between the conscious and the unconscious and is responsible for reality testing and a sense of personal identity Ego vs. Confidence -Confidence leads, Ego defends The Hidden Ego -Your ego isn’t always loud. Sometimes, it’s the voice that says “you’re not good enough.” It manifests as self-doubt, “imposter syndrome,” or the need to please Ego and Leadership -Ego can cloud decision-making, hinder feedback and damage culture Healthy vs. Unhealthy Ego -Ego isn’t the enemy, unexamined ego is. It is possible to be aware of our ego, without rejecting the self entirely Letting Go of Ego -Growth begins when we rise above our ego by raising our levels of consciousness. When we allow ourselves to be vulnerable, when we chose to grow vs. being right and the beautiful power of “I don’t know” As an ELI-MP (Energy Leadership Master Practitioner), I help my clients understand how their ego is shaping their work and personal lives in a supportive, learning environment. This is the environment where really growth begins, when we feel safe and heard. I can’t wait to help you! #Ego; #EnergyLeadershipMasterPracticioner: #ExecutiveCoach; #BusinessCoach; #EffectiveLeadership @Clarity13.com

👑🧠🗣️🙌💯Your Ego Isn’t Leading-It’s Limiting It whispers: -You already know enough -Asking for help is a weakness -You can’t let them see uncertainty Yet, growth begins the moment the ego steps aside. True leadership isn’t about being right. It’s about being real, curious, and courageous enough to evolve. What is the one way your ego has held you back-and what did you learn when you let it go? #Leadership; #Ego; #ExeecutiveCoaching; #BusinessCoaching; #LeadershipCoaching; #GrowthMindset; #SelfAwareness @Clarity13.com

💡🤝🧭🌎💛Ethics Are Not Just Nice To Have In life and in business, they are non-negotiable. Ethics shape trust. Trust builds relationships. Relationships drive results. Don’t compromise your core for short-term gain. Lead with principle. Act with purpose. That’s how real impact is made. Ethics matter always. #Leadership; #BusinessEthics; #Trust; #ExecutiveCoach; #BusinessCoach; #LeadershipCoach; #EnergyLeaderhsipMasterPracticioner @Clarity13.com

🔒💖✨Integrity There is something in business and in life that is black and white. Your team, your family, your clients, and your business partners all know (without hesitation) if you have it, or if you do not. It is not something you have some of the time. With integrity, you can accomplish anything you set out to and without it, please simply ask yourself what message are you sending to your team, your family, your business partners and your clients? It takes moral courage to live and work with integrity, yet it is so #worthit. #integrityinbusinessandinlife; #ethics; #executivecoach; #businesscoach; #effectiveleadership; #energyleadershipmasterpractctioner; #peoplematter; #thebestculture; #mom @Clarity13.com

❤️❤️ My Hearts! Happy Mother’s Day ❤️🌸🌷🪻🙏💞!!!

☕️ 💬🕯️✨🔥🕊️❤️Rituals are Cultural Glue Every Monday morning, one of my clients starts their team meeting with a simple ritual: First she asks everyone what their highlights were from their weekend (what made them happy, feel rested, anything they want) and then asks them: What is the one thing you would feel really good about if you accomplished it this week? It takes 10-15 minutes. No slides. No metrics. Just people being human. Over time, something shifted: -More voices at the table -Deeper listening -Greater ownership and trust Whether you begin a week this way or reflect on the prior week, or create a different ritual or many others altogether, rituals create belonging, psychological safety, and alignment. It does do so through pressure, yet through consistency. Rituals are not fluff. They are in fact, cultural glue. They shape how we connect, communicate, and grow-one shared moment at a time. What rituals shape your team’s culture? #Leadership #WorkplaceCulture #BelongingAtWork #PsychologicalSafety #Alignment #ExecutiveCoaching #Clarity13

🫶 Tradition builds culture. Culture builds belonging. In business, traditions aren’t just nice to have-they are connection points. When I meet with new Executives, business owners and leaders, one of the questions I always ask about is when and how often are they meeting with their teams. Are they meeting 1:2:1? Are they meeting every morning to kick start their day? How about monthly staff meetings? Leadership quarterly meetings and yearly off-sites? What traditions do they have? Whether it’s a weekly team huddle, a founder’s story retold consistently, or celebrating wins in a signature way, traditions create continuity and meaning. They say “This is who we are.” And that’s what people want to belong to. This image is from my The Westport BNI weekly meetings and this is me sharing my weekly presentation. Everyone receives the opportunity to share who they are, what they do and why they do it. It is one of many traditions BNI has created internationally to foster connection, inclusion and success amongst its members. What traditions define your team and your company? You do not need to have many, yet you do need to have about 4 key ones that completely demonstrate who you are (you and your company). I can’t wait to help you do this as just one part of my #executivecoaching; #leadershipcoaching; #businesscoaching; #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner; practice. #traditionsbuildcultureandbelonging @Clarity13.com.

🆘 We would want nothing more for the people we love and care about, than to give them everything they need to feel good again, after feeling the weight of stress in their lives. Pause and think about this for just a quiet moment. Wouldn’t you do everything in your power to help your loved ones when they are feeling overwhelmed, burned out, depleted? Then why don’t we help ourselves in the same way? I’m beyond guilty here myself and I couldn’t be more vulnerable or honest about this. I keep going. I dig in and muscle through. I’ve done it my whole life. I’ve always had big roles, outside and inside my home. My family, my friends, my work colleagues (often thousands of associates and members of my team that I felt responsible for), my clients all needed me, while I placed me at the end of this never ending line. Because I’m responsible, I don’t want anyone to feel less than and I didn’t listen to my own warning signs. Physical and mental fatigue, fog and much more. Logically, we understand the “put your oxygen mask on first” concept, yet we put it aside. Over and over again. How about we simply decide that loving ourselves and taking care of our own needs that fuel us naturally and whole heartedly is our first priority and we treat ourselves with the much needed love, care and support we need? My mindset has changed over the years as I’ve learned from my own set-backs, my own burnout and from watching many others do the same. Others who are resilient, others who didn’t listen to what they needed. Let’s just STOP doing this and commit to US, to what we need, what fuels our body, mind and soul and when we are full, I promise you our lives, our work and our care for others will be even stronger, more genuine. We just may provide greater insight and support than we ever have. Let’s take good care of US by taking good care of YOU 🙏❤️‍🩹💪!!! #youmatter; #takegoodcareofyou; #evenexecutivesburnout; #lessstress; #executivecoach; #leadershipcoach; #businesscoach; #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner @Clarity13.com

😥 🥹 We can call it lots of different things. Burnout, stress, feeling overwhelmed. It doesn’t matter what we call it, we know when we feel it and we must pay attention. Stress doesn’t care what our role is, who we are, or what we are responsible for. It takes over and before we know it, we know that if we continue, it will not be good. I have reached burnout personally a few times in my life and because I have felt it first-hand, I understand completely that when we are in this state, we are not our best selves (to say the least). In fact, we feel almost foreign to the high functioning person we used to be yesterday, last week, last month, last year. This week, our only accomplishment is to give ourselves permission to unplug, step away, take things off our list and focus on asking ourselves the most critical question at the moment. What do I need to feel better? Then, we must do it. What you need is personal and how long you need it is also personal. Do not be afraid to take good care of yourself. You are worth it, you need it and when you feel better, learn from it and make the changes to help your future self. #takegoodcareofyou; #burnoutisreal; #stressisreal, #whatdoyouneed; #executivecoach; #leadershipcoach; #businesscoach; #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner; @Clarity13.com

Why Coaching? Let’s wrap up this week with a final thought about coaching. Working with a coach is personal. We need to find someone we trust. Someone we can be vulnerable with, someone we have confidence in and ultimately, someone who can help us reach our goals with clarity. The greatest benefit in hiring a coach is accelerated transformation. A coach helps us see blind spots, challenges our limiting beliefs and helps us stay, undeniably accountable. What might take us a year, or even a lifetime, can happen in months, with the right guidance. How do I coach? In my Clarity 13 practice, I coach in a few ways that may or may not work for everyone. I coach with a fundamental belief that we have everything within us to reach our full potential. I coach with a knowing that I can concretely show my clients how their level of consciousness is creating their reality (and moreover, how to raise their consciousness) and I coach with a drive that makes a clear connection between transformational leadership and business success. I take coaching seriously, although when you meet me, you’ll simply feel at ease. Conversations start everything. Let’s have one. #executivecoach; #businesscoach; #leadershipcoach; #energyleadershipmasterpractioner; #youareworthit; #effectiveleadership @Clarity13.com

Why Coaching? CEO’s, business owners, leaders, could you have a success disconnect⛓️‍💥? Meaning, you want to be your very best, yet you settle for “good enough.” If this sounds like you, I am here to help you in a way that will be something you will never forget 🤩 ! If you do not think you need it, then I can’t help you. I’ll show you concretely how your beliefs have taken you to this success point and I will show you how to choose differently to get to wherever you want to go #energyleadershipmasterpractioner. I’ve dedicated my life and my work to bringing out the very best in individuals, particularly in leaders and helping them create exceptional workplaces and businesses. The ripple effect of showing up authentically and positively is contagious and the results, monumental. My executive, business and leadership coaching programs are built with one thing in mind, YOU! You feeling and doing better, your team benefiting and your company (if you have one), soaring! I cannot wait to help you! #YOUAREWORTHIT #justtakethefirststep; #executivecoaching; #businesscoaching; #leadershipcoaching; Clarity 13 ; @Clarity13.com

🙏⛰️👣✨ ✝️ ❤️For those who observe, wishing you a blessed Good Friday. And, for Everyone, a final reflection about being humble, as we step into the weekend. Let me begin by asking you to think of the people who have influenced you throughout your career. The leaders that you just loved, who believed in you and who you would follow anywhere they went. For me, there were a few and they each had humility. They were able to exude confidence, without ego, they cared, they believed in me and they were never afraid to say they made a mistake. Being humble means that we recognize our imperfections and in doing so, we create a comfort and engagement in those we lead, like no other. I’ve always wanted everyone I interact with to feel loved, to feel cared for, to feel heard and to know that I needed them and that they didn’t need me. Let’s step into this weekend letting our team, everyone in our company, everyone we influence know that we are imperfect and we need them to help us be a unified, powerful, collaborative and caring team. It is this team that will be a force that is fueled by all that is good. #behumble; #effectiveleadership; #executivecoach; #leadershipcoach; #businesscoach; #energyleadershipmasterpractioner @Clarity13.com

🪞⛰️👣🙏❤️ Humility-Not easy, yet so worth it! I was in my mid 30’s and a Director of HR. I wanted to be promoted to VP and I was wondering what was holding me back, as it wasn’t happening. There wasn’t a result I didn’t meet and I was quite successful, yet, no promotion. Then, something magical happened. I worked with a coach! I learned so much about myself, my tendencies, my beliefs and to this day, the experience changed me dramatically. In fact, I knew then, that one day, I would also want to become a coach. One of the greatest lessons I learned was that I didn’t have to get it all done and I didn’t need to have all of the answers. I thought my coach was kidding when she shared this information with me. She wasn’t. From my work with her, I learned to show my humility, to admit I didn’t have all of the answers. All of a sudden, everyone felt more comfortable in my presence and so did I! None of us are not perfect leaders, perfect humans. Once I showed my authentic self, with all of my real imperfections, everything began to click for me, personally and professionally. Yes, I went on to get promoted, yet what I learned about myself with her effective coaching transformed the way I lead and how i show up for everyone up until this day. Don’t be afraid to show your humility. It may be the most powerful thing you do for yourself and everyone around you! #Humilityisworthit; #effectiveleadership; #exceptionalworkplace; #executivecoach; #energyleadershipmasterpractioner; #businesscoach; #leadershipcoach @Clarity13.com

Humility!!! @Clarity13.com

❤️🤝✍️💪📶🚀 In Giving, we Receive!!! As CEO’s, business owners and leaders, every day is a new opportunity to ask ourselves, How can I be of service? One could argue, the other mindset, which may be, wait, “I am the boss, the CEO, the leader and it is my team who should be serving me”! How do you think that really works? If you think this way, please give me a call, I’d love to learn how this is playing out for you. Real leaders, the ones who inspire us to be our best and to do everything in our power to help them and build their business are the leaders who look for every opportunity to serve their team, their people, their associates. It is when our associates feel cared for, encouraged, empowered and engaged that they feel heard, understood, confident. THIS is the environment that ignites their desire to help you and your company win!!! Let me be of service to you, CEO’s, business owners and leaders and help you create this dynamic and successful workplace for your company!!! #executivecoach; #businesscoach; #leadershipcoach; #energleadershipmasterpracticioner; #peoplefirst; #effectiveleadership; #peoplematter; #extraordinaryworkplace; #employeeexperience; #thebestculture @Clarity13.com

☕️🍽️📲☎️❤️🙌🚀 If we have spent any time together and you have heard my story, my “Why” and how my journey started, my journey to help positively transform leaders and companies, then you know that for me, it started in my family’s diner. I learned at a very young age that the way I interacted with my coworkers, my mom (I guess my boss :)), my colleagues (everyone who worked at our diner, including my brother, George Yfantopulos) and with my customers, I had the ability to make or break their day. I learned that when I provided great warmth and genuine, caring customer service only great things happened. So, at about 8-10 years old, taking care of others meant providing them with beautiful, customer service. The customer service that mattered, the service that made them feel welcome, the service, that made them want to stay and want to come back. The link between leadership, exceptional service and a flourishing business became embedded in my brain and in my behavior and I wanted to share this with the world. I want to offer so much about this topic, customer service with you this week. If you have ever worked in a restaurant, in retail, in hospitality, you know what I mean completely (and frankly, in all industries that have employees and customers)! What I’d like you to think about this week, is how do you treat everyone in your life and in your company with this, real, genuine, “I care about you” service? Customer service is an action and the thought behind it, is genuine care. Let’s spend this week showing everyone we interact with how much we care through our customer service. In today’s world, it really is the game changer!!! #Customerservice; #exceptionalleadership; #aboveandbeyond; #unreasonablehospitality; #executivecoach; #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner; #businesscoach; #leadershipcoach; #peoplematter; #effectiveleadership @Clarity13.com

🙌💪❤️💡🚀 Happy Friday!!! Employee Engagement Matters!!! Think about it, How could it not? A full team and company of employees who love what they do, feel cared for, want to do their very best for YOUR company and YOU, as their CEO, business owner, leader, listen to what matters to them the most, take steps to create these things and you and your entire company aligns and behaves to this exceptional culture?

😁💪👏🙌❤️🚀🎈 YES, it’s Wednesday and WE are Winning!!! Why are WE winning? WE are winning because we have gained great insight this week into understanding that conflict and everything that goes along with it, like blame, defiance, getting one over on someone, are all losing battles. Frankly everyone loses, even the person who decides that they are right and the other person is wrong. It may feel good for a moment, yet the long term negative effects of blame are real, both on the engagement of our teams, our workplace and on us, physically. We have learned that us, CEOs, leaders, business owners who want to evolve who they are as a leader and as a human are not the ones who have to win the race, be #1, get the blue ribbon. No, in fact, it is us leaders who have worked on themselves who have gained the wisdom that real winning comes from losing, sitting back and cheering your team on, bringing out the best in others, taking the back seat, not needing to take over the stage. And, when it comes to conflict, us leaders who want to truly bring out he very best in our time, who want them to shine, to be empowered, to soar are the ones who realized that no one wins when there is a clear winner and loser. So, let’s consistently take that high road, initiate the conversation to work through our conflict with our team and with everyone we know, because it is when we both win, everyone wins!!! #peoplematter; #exceptionalworkplaceculture; #empowerment; #engagementatwork; #executivecoach; #businesscoach; #leadershipcoach; #effectiveleadership @Clarity13.com

😡😠➡️💪😁🚀It’s inevitable, Conflict will occur in the workplace. Frankly, it occurs everywhere, all of the time. And, although it can turn out for the best, it simply does not feel good when it is happening. When things don’t feel good, we don’t make good, well thought out decisions. The reason for this, is conflict occurs when we view things as black and white, when there is a clear winner and a loser. So, let’s think about this. If you are in a conflict with one of the members of your team, your company and you want to win. What does this make them? A loser? The person you hired, trained, empowered to do a fantastic job for YOUR company. Does this sound logical? OK, I get it, agree to disagree. However, in the meantime, no one is feeling great about this, not you, not your team member, not anyone who is aware and, perhaps it’s even spread throughout Your company. Again, how do you think YOUR team member feels if they feel that they are right and you feel you are right? I’m hoping you are getting the picture, or even better, feeling just how catabolic this situation is and will continue to be unless you do one thing. Take the high road! The high road is always less occupied, yet feels better than any other road available. We already know what the low road feels like. Yes, low. So, what do you do? You initiate the conversation and the conversation goes something like this: “Hi, I wanted to reach out because I’ve been thinking a lot about the conflict between us and it doesn’t feel good to be on opposing sides of this situation. “You matter greatly to me and to this company and you clearly have a very good reason for feeling the way you do. I don’t like the conflict this has created between us and I’d like to learn more about why you feel the way you do. I trust you and am hoping that we can put our heads together and come up with maybe something even better. What do you think?” Thoughts? I promise you that if you try this, you will have created a loyal, trusting team member who respects you and feels valued, trusted and cared for. Think about how strong this relationship will be going forward? Problems have solutions. Conflict can turn into Strength!!!

❤️🧠😃🚀🎈Happy Friday!!! What makes you feel alive? What inspires you to do your very best and seize each day with optimism, confidence and certainty? I can share with you that my over 30 years of experience fundamentally has proven a few things. People, all people, feel ignited and want to do our very best when we feel purpose in our work, are aligned with our values, feel cared for, appreciated, safe and we are empowered by those all around us!!! What this means for us, CEO’s, business owners and leaders, is that we are responsible for creating this environment for our workplace and with everyone we interact with. We simply must!!! There is nothing more satisfying than igniting an entire workplace to be their very best selves. It is magical and it is felt by every single person in the company, on the team. It is also created and built by caring, driven CEO’s and leaders who may not know how to do this, yet know that without it, they are paddling upstream ALL OF THE TIME!!! A few things ignite me to this level and I can promise you that this is the top of my list, my WHY and I want to help you create the most highly engaged culture you can imagine through your extraordinary leadership!!! Creating this workplace culture will inspire every single one of your associates to bring their hearts and minds to work hashtag#everysingleday!!! Why? Because highly engaged associates do not stop wanting to make their company better and if you like the sounds of that, I am here to help you!!! Stop waiting for tomorrow, someone else to do it. CEO’s, business owners and leaders, I will help you build it!!! #heartandmind; #highlyengagedculture; #executivecoach; #businesscoach; #leadershipcoach; #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner; #effectiveleadership; #yourpeoplematter; #outstandingplacetowork @Clarity13.com

😃❤️💡🎈🚀I am BEYOND EXCITED to join these incredible leaders on April 8th to discuss a topic we all (and I know you do too) believe in wholeheartedly!!! And, so happens to be what we are talking about this week!!! “Driving a Culture of Employee Engagement From Hire to Alumni” Calling all CEOs, COOs, Sr. Leaders, HR leaders-Join Us!!! hashtag#HRleaders, SHRM/HRCI recertification credits approved! #Exceptionalworkplacecultures; #HRleaders; #employeengagement; #heartandmind;#SOCTSHRM; #executivecoach; #businesscoach;#leadershipcoach; #effectiveleadership; #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner @Clarity13.com

❤️🧠💪💡💃🏻🕺🏼🚀Happy Monday Everyone!!! This week, let’s talk about how engaged your team is at work!!! First, let’s define what it means for your associate’s to be engaged at work. I believe in making things simple. So, let’s define what it means for your associates to be engaged at work. The easiest way to define is engagement is this: Do your associates bring their hearts and their minds to work? Ideally, all of the time. Yes, consistently. Now, think about your leadership and ask yourself honestly, what do you do to make sure this is the case? Yes, YOU? What do YOU do to demonstrate that you genuinely care about your associates, which is the primary thing that will engage their hearts. In fact without it, they will not take your lead, they will go through the motions. Secondly, what do you do to empower them at all times to use their own minds, creativity, skills, style? Now, let’s ask. Why would we want to ensure our associates are highly engaged at work? The answer is also simple, because one, we care about our associates and want to employ individuals who love their work and go home to share how happy they are with their family and loved ones and two, it is the best thing you can do for your business because, at the end of the day, you are the CEO, the business owner and the leader and your team of associates are the ones who are doing the majority of the work for you and your company. When they love their jobs and take pride in them, they bring their best self to work every day and this will bring out their creativity, drive, talent and together, your business WILL SOAR. PERIOD. So, how would your associate’s rate their engagement at work? If you think 90-100%, then you are an outstanding leader who must have a healthy and successful business. Anything less, you are leaving business behind and disappointing your team. If you and your company needs help doing this, I am happy to help you! #associatengagement; #executivecoach; #businesscoach; #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner; #theeffectiveleadership; #leadershipcoach; bestcutlure; # @Clarity13.com

💡😃💃🏻 Happy Friday Everyone!!! So, I had to take my own advice this morning. I woke up in my normal pretty happy state, began my morning ritual (that fuels me and sets me up to have a great day) and then...I couldn’t access my meditation app. Nope, it just kept swirling and swirling. I tried so many things, rebooted my my router, unplugged everything, talked to myself so I wouldn’t get frustrated and ultimately determined my internet went down. What does this mean for my day? Well, I can’t meditate to start my day as I like. I can’t do the majority of my work, no zoom calls, and so on and so on. I felt my Level 2 energy rising (my often default) and started coaching myself. So, I did what I could, I went for a walk! On that walk, I decided to take my own weekly coaching advice and reframed the situation. I took deep breaths throughout the walk, enjoyed nature and thought about the situation differently. I calmed down. This was critical in the process. I was able to get to an anabolic state and move to problem solving and reassured myself that all problems have solutions and that when I got back, I would call my internet company and take it from there. Tada!!!! There was a power outage in my area :)!!! This is normally not great news, yet it was great for me and I felt so much better! The issue was real, not just my own incompetency of some sort and I was able to put to practice what I preach. I didn’t allow myself to stay in my catabolic, worried state, I shifted! So, PLEASE try this the next time you face a situation that instantly may put you into a stressful state and see how it works for you!!! Enjoy your weekend and I’m excited to think about next week’s theme. Anyone have a topic you’d like more insight on? Please let me know below! #problemsolved; #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner; #executivecoach; #businesscoach; #effectiveleadership; #peoplefirstculture @Clarity13.com

💡🤔😊👏🎈🚀 See that smile on my face? I just shifted my thinking about a problem I have been facing and went from frustration, to feeling like a weight has been lifted!!! The weight of my own perspective that is and the way I have been thinking about the issue has simply been keeping me in a holding pattern. So, I decided to take my own advice and change the way I thought about the issue altogether. That’s why I am smiling, because I am not longer in resistance, I now feel happy and excited to take the next step to solving my issue!!! WOW!!! I feel great and all I had to do was change the way (the familiar way) I was thinking and perceiving the obstacle and all of a sudden, there was no obstacle!!! I’ve encouraged us all to do this this week, take the one thing that has been taking us down the most and reframe how we are viewing it until we feel good, then, we will know that we are on the right path to overcoming!!! As CEO’s, business owners and leaders there are endless benefits to entertaining a different perspective and the most beneficial is that we will actually find a solution!!! #problemsolved; #executivecoach; #businesscoach; #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner; #effectiveleadership @Clarity13.com

☘️😊❤️Happy St. Patrick’s Day and Happy Monday!!! 💡🤔💪 It’s Monday and we are headed into a new work week! As CEO’s, business owners and leaders, we want to show up as our best selves at all times. However, we are indeed human and as humans, maybe we are heading into this week with something weighing on our mind. Maybe it’s a new thing, maybe it’s been weighing on us for awhile. Due to the fact that we are indeed human, we have created a set of beliefs that we have had for a long time. These beliefs, in simple terms are thoughts we have kept thinking about and they have shaped our thought pattern and preferences. All of this thinking and perspective is natural and most of our beliefs serve us well. And then, there are some beliefs that simply do not help us. In fact, they keep us in a catabolic state where we can get stuck, where even strong negative emotions surface. Again, all natural, yet, at the end of the day, we can’t seem to overcome these specific ways of looking at things and certain obstacles just keep surfacing. In fact, these can be the same problem that you somehow just haven’t overcome. So, what do we do? As a coach and someone who has helped hundreds, if not thousands of individuals overcome obstacles their whole life professionally and personally, we must find a way to move forward and reframe the way we are viewing the obstacle. It is only when we can view the obstacle with a different filtered lens that we can indeed, and once and for all, “remove” the obstacle. There are several ways of doing this and I can’t wait to show you how to create this tool, have it permanently in your tool box and it will help you in the short term and in the long haul. Try it this week, take the one thing that you simply can’t get over and reframe HOW you are viewing it until you simply feel better. When you feel better, move toward the solution! #reframe, #executivecoach; #leadershipcoach; #businesscoach; #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner; #exceptionalculture; #effectiveleadership @Clarity13.com

💡🗣️🙍‍♀️🙎‍♂️👏 Initiate The Conversation when things go south!!! As CEO’s, business owners and leaders, we all know when relationships at work (and at home) don’t feel right, when something just feels off. These relationships can be among your team, with you and a team member, with you and a business partner outside of your company, with a vendor. You may not be able to figure out where on when it went it went south, yet boy can you feel it! In fact, many can feel it (your workplace can feel it) and that is because the energy that arises in conflict is mostly catabolic (80% in fact), distracting, draining, non-productive. And, clearly preventing us as leaders from leading clear, positive, healthy and successful workplaces. What do you think is the root cause of issues at work? While pinpointing a single “root cause” could be considered overly simplistic, workplace issues often stem from communication breakdowns, unclear expectations, and lack of effective leadership, leading to misunderstandings and frustration. With this said, we can continue to wait it out, see if it resolves itself, pretend it will go away, ask someone else to handle it. Or, we can lean into the incredible, empathetic, leader that we are and we can initiate a conversation with this person. Trust me, doing this one thing and then having a two-way conversation where you demonstrate real care an concern will not only resolve the issue, it will create trust and will help you build loyalty among your team. So, do not wait!!! Initiate the Conversation and I want to hear how it went!!! Please reach out and let me know! #executivecoach; #leadershipcoach; #businesscoach; #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner; #effectiveleadership @Clarity13.com

💡🗣️🙍‍♀️🙎‍♂️👏 Effective Communication: The Key to Resolving and Preventing Issues!!! In any business or leadership role (I’d say in life), communication is often the difference between success and failure. Whether it is addressing a conflict, aligning a team, or navigating a challenge, clear and open communication helps prevent misunderstandings and ensures everyone is on the same page. As leaders, CEO’s, business owners, its’ crucial to foster and model an environment where feedback is encouraged, active listening is prioritized and transparency is valued. When we communicate effectively we not only resolve issues faster, we also prevent many from arising in the first place!!! #Leadership; #Communication; #BusinessStrategy; #EffectiveLeadership; #Executivecoach; #Businesscoach; #Energyleadershipmasterpracticioner @Clarity13.com

💡🎯👏🚀 Happy Friday everyone! Imagine a world where we all follow through on our promises. Just think of the harmony it would bring, the conflicts it would resolve, and the trust it would build. Keeping our word is crucial for everyone, regardless of their role. Let’s make a pledge to uphold our commitments, starting today and every day after. Do What You Say. Remember, our integrity is priceless. Let’s strive to be true to our word, always. #dowhatyousay #trust #executivecoach #leadershipcoach #businesscoach #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner @Clarity13.com

💡💃🏻🎙️🎯 Actions Speak Louder Than Words!!! Building trust as a leader is not about talking, not about saying the right things, not about being the most charismatic person in the room. The insight needed in becoming a leader that your team, company and colleagues trust and want to follow, could in fact, be considered boring or too simple. It is anything but!!! This is all you need to do: 1. Do what you say you are going to do 2. Behave in alignment with your mission, values, purpose and take very good care of your employees. Simply treat them well. Not one of these books on becoming an incredible leader says otherwise. Your actions will always create your character and your words just need to be kind, clear and caring. #actionsspeaklouderthanwords; #executivecoach; #leadershipcoach; #businesscoach; #trustintheworkplace; #leadership @Clarity13.com

This is what it looks like to not have pressure!!! To not have unnecessary stress. Imagine this for yourself and for your company, your team, your family!!! CEO’s, business owners and leaders, leadership is about providing support and guidance, NOT micromanaging. I’m here to gently remind you that you hired a team because of their skills and their experience, so why not provide them with the freedom to bring this to their work and create (maybe even better than you imagined) incredible results without unnecessary pressure? People learn by making decisions and if you have done all of the work in the beginning to align with your team on the mission, the goal, the time-frame, the stakeholders, etc., let them try, let them make mistakes and grow. Leading in this manner, with minimum, if any, unnecessary pressure cultivates a culture of respect and collaboration among your team, within your company. By creating a an environment where your team feels trusted and supported, you actually inspire higher levels of performance and loyalty. 💡 ✨ When you lead with trust, no pressure, you unlock the potential of your team to accomplish great things together. 💫 ❤️🥰👏🌟 #Nopressure; #Trust; #LeadershipCoach: #Businesscoach; #Executivecoach; #teamwork; #BusinessSuccess; #EnergyLeadershipMasterpracticioner @Clarity13.com

💨💣😬😰 This week we will talk about Pressure!!! I’m simply not a fan and let me tell you why. As an executive, business and leadership coach, long time HR Exec, parent and human being myself, I have witnessed first hand what pressure does not only to objects, yet to our employees, to our business partners, to everyone we have a relationship with. When additional, constant pressure is inflicted or perceived, it simply strips us of our ability to focus on the topic at hand and produce our very best, creative, incredible work. Now hear me out. I am not saying that we all do not need deadlines, time frames, etc., yet once we decide upon them with whoever we are in a relationship with and clearly align on what needs to be done, why do so many leaders decide it is a good idea to constantly and consistently check in or ask for status updates? Don’t do it! Healthy, trusting, and empowering relationships with your team and with everyone you encounter as a leader does not include additional pressure from you! Empowering leaders set clear, agreed upon time-frames, goals, frameworks and trusts others to follow-through and empower them to do their very best work without confinement and constant distracting pressure. CEO’s, business owners and leaders, let’s refrain from pressuring our teams or anyone we have a relationship with this week and let others surprise us with their follow-through and ability to soar! #Executivecoach; #leadershipcoach; #businesscoach; #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner #nopressure; @Clarity13.com

Have Faith!!!

🧠✅💯🔒⭐️This week, let’s delve into the significance of faith. When we’ve meticulously outlined our purpose, values, and leadership approach, awaiting the realization of our vision, doubt often looms. Whether from external sources or self-inflicted, doubt can challenge our patience and belief in the imminent fruition of our aspirations. Amidst this uncertainty, maintaining unwavering faith is paramount. Leaders must resist doubt, as it only hinders progress, leading many to falter, compromise, or deviate from their path. True leadership demands resolute faith, dismissing doubt as mere resistance that arises from self-doubt or external influences. Endurance in the face of doubt is where leaders shine, knowing that perseverance will yield the desired outcomes. Remember, when results lag behind expectation, embracing faith over doubt is crucial. Quitting only limits your potential; faith propels you further than you imagined. Stay steadfast in your belief, for the rewards will surpass the challenges. #ExecutiveCoach #LeadershipCoach #BusinessCoach #CultureFirst #EnergyLeadershipMasterPractitioner @Clarity13.com

⭐️🌱🦋🕊️🌅🪶🪽 Have Faith!!! This week, CEO’s, business owners, leaders and humans we are going to talk about FAITH!!! Yes, Faith and I promise you, although this is not a religious conversation, it is an energetic leadership one. When I work with my clients, we work on creating alignment and clarity around their purpose with their company’s mission, values and success. We do this with a clear 7-step process that feels anything but boring. Our ultimate desire is to create Clear, Positive, Healthy and Successful Workplaces/Business, all through their highly anabolic energy leadership and boy is it transformative!!! There will often be moments in their Clarity 13 journey, when we have laid out the perfect path, have complete clarity, defined our purpose, mission, values and how we will succeed and my client will inevitably struggle with doubt. This is where we spend more time on understanding why faith in their dreams, goals, desires, mission, must be unwavering, when, despite any tangible results, they must stay their course. For, it is similar to a gardener planting a seed, it must be nourished and believed in and not focused on for it to grow into the most beautiful flower! Without unwavering faith, we inflict doubt, we seek physical results and if they are not present (just yet), we create resistance, which is catabolic energy and takes us down a spiraling path that will not help us and will only set us back. There is a perfect plan and once my clients complete the tangible work, it is during this time that unwavering faith must be the only option. This faith comes from within and it has no resistance and when my clients stay on this path, their dreams, goals, results will inevitably arrive. This is science, it is law.

❤️🔝Love is not just a feeling, it’s a powerful business strategy that sets exceptional companies apart from the rest. As we celebrate Valentine’s Day, I reflect on the significance of love in the workplace. Love, when translated into action, becomes a transformative force. To implement love in business, leaders need to integrate it into their core values and decision-making processes. By asking ourselves, “What would love do?” when faced with challenges, we align our actions with empathy and care, fostering a positive work environment. Love isn’t just a word; it’s a commitment to caring for others and making decisions with compassion. This approach, rooted in empathy, is essential for business success. Embracing love as a fundamental principle can elevate not only the workplace but also your overall business outcomes. #ExecutiveCoach #BusinessCoach #LeadershipCoach #EnergyLeadershipMasterPractitioner #LoveAsABusinessStrategy @Clarity13.com

☺️✌️☮️🕊️❤️⬆️🧨 Be The Calm in The Chaos!!! CEO’s, business owners and leaders, let’s ask ourselves a simple question. Are we bringing calm and focus to our teams through our highly anabolic, positive, clear energetic leadership or are we the ones who bring the chaos through a lack of clear communication, miscommunication, unrealistic deadlines, micromanaging and undervaluing our people, our team? Did you answer? Did you skip the question? Are you thinking it’s someone else who is responsible for leadership in your company? Transformative leadership starts and ends with you, yes YOU! it’s not your COO’s responsibility or your head of HR’s or someone who reports into you. It’s YOU and if you are excited by this, then you’re on the right track!!! If this scares you and/or you’ve always behaved this way, then, I’d love to help you. Coaching CEOs, business owners and leaders to create clear, positive, healthy and successful businesses and workplaces is my absolute passion and my greatest strength. Workplaces that have an outstanding culture, brimming with trust, positivity, high engagement, genuine care and empowerment is the product of outstanding leadership. This is what I do, I coach YOU to transform your leadership to create these exceptional workplaces and before you know it, you will be be the calm in the storm, the light in the path and your business will achieve exceptional results, your team will drive your business like they never have before, they will want to stay and you will exceed your financial results. Period. This is how it works, if you doubt this, let me change your mind!!! #executivecoach; #leadershipcoach; #businesscoach; #energyleaderhsipmasterpracticioner: #Transformingleaders; #Culturefirst @Clariry13.com @Clarity13.com

💡⬆️❤️🙌🪽 During turbulent times, leadership is not just about decisions, it’s about energy. The energy that calms nerves, draws from inspiration, establishes unity and declares through its wisdom that all will be well and we will persevere. CEO’s, business owners and leaders, we are counted on to RISE above the challenges, elevate our presence and inspire those around us, all of the time and particularly during challenging times. Our energy is literally contagious; it shapes our team’s resilience, drives innovation and sets the tone for transformation. We must be the calm, the light. Leaders who rise create momentum that others can follow. Now is the time to lead with purpose and presence. These leadership qualities/energy can be learned, can be drawn out and when they are, true leadership is established. We can do this #together. #RISE; #ExecutiveCoaching; #Leadership; #BusinessCoaching; #LeadWithEnergy; #EnergyLeadershipMasterPracticioner; #LeadershipCoaching

❤️👏✨🙏🙌🎉 TREAT PEOPLE WELL. PERIOD. CEO’s, Business Owners, Leaders and Humans-How You Treat Others all day, everyday is a testament to your leadership. You cannot pick and choose who you decide to treat well and who you decide not to. This simply creates favoritism in your company, makes your team feel as if they don’t belong and us humans are pretty darn smart, we know you aren’t being genuine and really don’t care. It will always be the leaders who are simply great human beings and care about their team, who are the ones everyone wants to follow, who everyone wants to work for, the ones who are not being kind because they need you for the moment, for the project, for the time until they won’t. Leadership is about YOU, who you are at your core and yes, how you treat other people when no one is watching. How you treat EVERYONE. My expertise is coaching CEO’s, business owners and leaders to create clear, positive, healthy and successful workplaces that are filled with people who want to help you grow the heck out of your business. They will only do so for the long run, if they know in their heart that you actually do care about them. Period. I will help you transform whatever state you may feel like you are in. #Executivecoach; #businesscoach; #leadershipcoach; #culturebuilder; #workplacetransformer; #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner @Clarity13.com

❤️🥰👏😇🌟💪💫🎈Company Culture-I recently received something that described company culture perfectly, it went something like this...your company culture is not a series of words on paper, or what is on your website, it is how your employees feel on Sunday night. There it is. Whether you are the Founder and CEO of a company, a leader within or an employee, you need to ask yourself this question, how are my actions contributing to someone’s rest and excitement on Sunday night or is my behavior contributing to their anxiety, worry, stress on Sunday night instead? Your company culture starts with YOU and has everything to do with how you behave, how you lead, how you help and how you treat everyone at work. It’s this simple. A company culture that is built on Trust and exceptional leadership will create the most incredibly run company where every single one of it’s employees cannot wait to get to work on Monday morning and cannot wait to build an exceptional and successful business with you! How’s your culture? Really? I want to help you build the most exceptional culture that will create the most exceptional results. They always do!!! #executivecoach; #businesscoach; #leadershipcoach; #energyleadershipmasterparactioner @Clarity13.com

😘👩‍💻📝🎼📖💫🚀Last week, amidst discussing my “Clarity in Action: Designing Your Next Chapter” workshop, the topic of forgiveness arose. We delved into the importance of forgiving those who have caused us pain in various aspects of our lives. Understanding that individuals operate based on their current consciousness levels, we emphasized the detrimental effects of holding onto grudges, anger, and conflicts. Forgiveness is a conscious choice that liberates us from negative energies tied to unresolved grievances. It’s not just about forgiving others but also about forgiving oneself. This week, our focus shifts to the art of letting go. Release the narratives that no longer resonate positively with you. Shed the weight of shame, guilt, and self-criticism associated with these stories. They no longer serve you; they only hinder your progress. I urge you to reflect on anything holding you back from advancing in life, work, leadership, or business ownership. Whether it involves seeking forgiveness from others for past actions or forgiving yourself for decisions made from a different state of awareness, it’s time to confront these barriers. Reach out, express remorse, and genuinely seek forgiveness. Embrace the process of forgiving yourself, rewriting your story, and embracing a future unburdened by past grievances. The key to unlocking your potential lies in letting go and granting yourself the grace to move forward. Allow me to guide you in releasing the past and crafting a brighter future for both your personal and professional endeavors! #executivecoach; #businesscoach; #leadershipcoach ; #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner @Clarity13.com

❤️🕊️🌟 Forgiveness!!! Let’s do it, let’s talk about forgiveness. Yes, let’s go there. Let’s take a moment to think about who we haven’t forgiven. There are individuals even in our work, in our companies and definitely throughout our lives that have hurt us in their words and/or actions and we have not forgiven them, even if we said we have. Yes, THEM. You know who they are and they come to mind so quickly and then once again, you remember how they hurt you, what they did and why you would never have done anything like that to anyone and why you just can’t forgive them. In working with people for my entire career, with an ultimate goal of helping them, particularly my clients live and work at their highest level, I can tell you that forgiveness is hard, it is deep and it pushes against our beliefs at our core. And, YES, we must do if we want to feel finally free and create the very best life and company and team and business and...... Holding on to our resentment and anger and pain hurts us, it affects our health, it shows up in physical ailments and we can honestly carry this pain (catabolic energy) throughout our lives. How many people do you know that have carried grudges throughout their entire careers, personal lives, to their grave? So, I am here to share something, that if you can allow yourself for a moment to really believe, you WILL begin to forgive, maybe immediately, maybe in time, all you need to do is believe this, without doubt. The person who hurt you through their words and/or actions did so because that is where they were/are consciously. Humans cannot access a higher level of consciousness until we are ready to do the work on ourselves. So, that person who hurt you deserves your forgiveness as they did not “know” to do better or chose not to do better. That is where they were. YOU, however know you want more, aspire to be and do better. Forgive them (whether verbally or just for yourself). I help my clients raise their level of consciousness and I want to help you too! Let’s make 2025 the year we forgave!!! #Executivecoach; #leadershipcoach; #businesscoach; #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner @Clarity13.com

💡♥️🎯 Aligning our actions with our deepest purpose is the key to achieving our aspirations. I believe in the power of “Inspired Action” to seamlessly realize our goals. Observing individuals caught in a cycle of frantic activity and exhaustion, I advocate for a more meaningful and serene approach to pursuing our desires. In my coaching practice, I focus on guiding CEOs, business owners, and leaders towards this transformative mindset. Understanding this concept leads to profound changes in individuals, their environments, influence, and ultimately, in the creation of companies that stand apart from the norm. These companies, under the guidance of leaders who grasp this fundamental truth, operate differently. By aligning purpose with work, actions become inspired, yielding exceptional results that surpass expectations. #executivecoach #leadershipcoach #businesscoach #energyleadershipmasterpractitioner @Clarity13.com
