Optimizing Leadership
for All
Empowering Leaders and Women in Midlife to Thrive
For senior leaders and organizations navigating complexity, inflection points, and second chapters—without sacrificing coherence.
I serve experienced leaders who understand that at a certain level, leadership is no longer about capability. It is about judgment, clarity, executive presence, and sustaining influence without self-fragmentation.
“I gained a clearer perspective on my work, which reignited my enthusiasm for my role and my team. She didn’t give me all the answers – instead, she guided me to find them myself. That made all the difference.”
“As my executive coach for more than a year, Chelese has been an invaluable partner in my professional journey. She has an exceptional ability to create space for reflection while also helping clients take meaningful, forward-looking action.”
“I was terrified I’d discover there was nothing beneath the resume. Instead, I found a woman I actually like.”
“Chelese supported me through a complex career transition and helped me reconnect with what I want from my work and life. Her approach is thoughtful, grounded, and empowering — she meets you where you are and helps you move toward where you want to be with clarity, confidence, and purpose.”
Harmonious Leadership Circles
A year-long leadership experience for senior-level women ready to align who they are with how they lead. In a confidential, thoughtfully facilitated Circle, you’ll grow alongside peers who understand the weight and complexity of high-impact leadership. Together, you’ll cultivate strategic clarity, grounded confidence, and a leadership identity rooted in authenticity, resilience, and purposeful evolution.
Guiding Midlife women
For accomplished women who sense something more is calling. If you’ve checked the boxes yet feel inwardly restless, this is a supportive space to slow down, listen deeply, and reconnect with your inner compass. Through guided reflection and community, you’ll explore what’s next—at your own pace—without pressure to have it all figured out.
Executive coaching
Coaching for executives and leadership teams seeking greater clarity, collaboration, and impact. Through facilitated group experiences or 1:1 support, leaders strengthen communication, navigate complexity with confidence, and harness collective wisdom to solve real challenges. Each engagement is designed to build resilient, emotionally intelligent leadership that drives meaningful results across your organization.
