Every Leader Deserves a Trusted Partner Introducing…
Aligned: A Leadership Coaching Journey
for humans who lead.
A one-on-one coaching program that blends practical strategy with meaningful reflection. Together, we’ll navigate tough conversations, complex decisions, and the human side of leadership so you can lead in a way that honors your values and strengths. When you are aligned, you can bring your full self to the complex work of leadership. Now with the steady support of a trusted partner by your side.
Most leaders know this feelingThe unseen weight of leadership is heavier than most people realize.
Some of the hardest parts of leadership aren’t visible to anyone else. They’re the tough calls that rest on your shoulders, the conversations that knot your stomach, the worries that keep you awake. They show up in moments like these:
Knowing a tough conversation needs to happen, but rehearsing it in your head over and over because you can’t find words that feel both honest and kind
Putting off accountability conversations so long that when review time comes, you end up softening the truth
Taking on more than your share of the work, logging off at 9pm most nights to protect your team from burnout, while you are running on empty
Adjusting your style for each team member, only to feel stretched thin by everyone’s different needs
Constantly wondering if you made the right call on complex decisions, when there was no perfect answer
Every leader faces moments like these. With the right space and support, the weight can feel lighter and the path ahead clearer.
IT DOESN’T HAVE TO FEEL SO HEAVYWhat if leadership felt more aligned, not just with your role, but with the whole of who you are?
You stepped into leadership because you care about the work, the people, and the difference you could make.
Along the way, you’ve realized leadership isn’t simple. It asks you to constantly adapt in new and unexpected ways.
And yet, that original commitment... it’s still there, but how you lead may need to evolve for today’s reality.
Picture yourself reconnecting with that leader who first said yes to this role, now with the skills and confidence to create the change you envisioned.
That version of you is closer than you think.
Imagine yourself as a leader who is...-
Steady in tough conversations: you speak with clarity and kindness
-
Strong in setting boundaries:: you hold team members accountable
-
Clear in your decisions: you are guided by your values
-
Confident in your leadership presence: you inspire trust and respect
Coaching creates space to slow down, regain perspective, and tap into the brilliant leader you already are.
what they are saying“After six sessions, I have more confidence, clearer goals, and tools to speak up at work.”
Before my coaching journey, I was struggling with confidence, past workplace trauma, and unclear expectations. After six sessions with Monique, I have a better understanding of my leadership strengths and weaknesses, more confidence in my ability to clarify workplace expectations, and tools to speak up and get what I need to do my job effectively. I also have greater clarity on my short and long-term career goals.
Monique tailored each session to my unique needs while staying flexible. She is empathetic, an excellent listener, and has this almost magical ability to reflect back your experiences, gently suggest new approaches, and nudge you toward concrete actions that improve workplace dynamics.

Meet Your Go-To Expert in OrganizationsWith 20 Years Inside the World of Organizations, org charts Are one of my love languages.
For two decades I’ve worked alongside leaders, teams, and systems in motion. I understand how strategy, culture, and human dynamics intersect, and how those intersections can either create momentum or add friction. With a Master’s in Organization Development, my experience helps me see both the structure and the subtleties of organizational life, from big-picture vision to everyday ripple effects.
Meet Your Partner in CoachingOver the past 15 years, I’ve partnered with more than 100 Coaching clients.
I’ve seen brilliant leaders lose sleep before difficult conversations, second-guess themselves in rooms where they already belonged, and wonder if they were doing enough, even when they were carrying more than their share. I’ve also witnessed the relief that comes when they finally have a place to pause, sort things through, and hear themselves think.

It’s often the little things that matter mostWhat makes this coaching different
My coaching balances strategy and reflection. Yes, we’ll talk through the practical challenges, but we’ll also notice the deeper patterns and create room for you to reconnect with yourself, because leadership shows up not only in what you do, but in who you are as you do it.
Clients often tell me it’s the thoughtful touches that make our work together so powerful.
Here are a few things you’ll only find inside Aligned:
The impact of having a trusted partnerMonique helped me move from doubt to clarity, one step at a time.”
The most valuable part of the program was Monique’s compassion and clarity in guiding me through overwhelming uncertainty. She transformed a daunting process into a purposeful and fulfilling journey.
When I began, I was sitting in my car, overwhelmed and unsure where to start. Now, I feel confident, aligned, and grounded in a purpose-driven life. Working with Monique was one of the most transformative decisions I have ever made.
Hilary M., Consultant 
“Monique is such a joy to work with. I would do it again in a heartbeat.”
I found it incredibly valuable to have a dedicated space to talk openly about challenges and opportunities in my job, with Monique’s fine-tuned listening ear. She often picked out details I had glossed over and focused on them for further discussion, always spot on.
Monique helped me see that fulfillment was possible in a new role within my current organization. Her walk-through of my skills assessment results completely shifted my perspective. I gained so much working with Monique, and her energy was exactly what I needed in my day.

Curious what a coaching session feels like?Inside a Coaching Session
If you’ve never had a coaching session before, it might be hard to imagine how you’d spend 60 minutes with your coach. Every conversation looks and feels a little different, because you bring what’s most important to you in the moment.
Still, there’s a gentle structure that guides our time together. This structure creates a steady rhythm for our sessions while leaving plenty of space for real conversations, insights, and breakthroughs to emerge naturally.
Here’s the flow I use in Aligned to make sure each session gives you clarity, focus, and space to explore:
When you pause, everything shiftsWhen you give yourself space to pause and reflect, you start showing up differently, not just in conversations but in the way you carry yourself as a leader. Picture yourself…
What’s possible when you Invest in your leadership?
Making confident decisions without second-guessing every angle
Strengthening relationships with your team and colleagues through honest, constructive conversations.

Wondering how to get started?The First Step Is Simple
If you’re curious about coaching, the first step is simple: schedule a Discovery Call. It’s not an interview or a sales pitch. It’s a real conversation where you can share what’s on your mind and explore how coaching might support you.
During your Discovery Call, we’ll:
Talk about where you are now and what’s prompting you to consider coaching
Explore what you’re hoping for in your leadership, career, or work life
Answer any questions you have about how coaching works
Decide together whether one of these coaching journeys feels right for you
You’ll leave the call with more clarity and a sense of direction for your next step forward.
WHY I LOVE THIS WORK
I Believe…
l believe leadership is more than a title. It’s reflected in the choices you make, the way you carry yourself, and the impact you have on others.
I believe every leader deserves a trusted partner, someone who listens deeply, reflects honestly, and reminds you of your own wisdom when the noise gets loud.
I believe clarity and confidence aren’t far-off goals. They’re already within you, waiting for space and support to rise to the surface.
And I believe joy belongs in work. When you’re aligned with your values and leading from that place, you don’t just get through the day. You create impact that feels meaningful, sustainable, and true to who you are.
My hope is that through our work together, you’ll not only navigate your role with greater ease, but also rediscover the deeper joy of leading in a way that feels true to you.
It would be my honor to support you through Aligned: A Leadership Coaching Journey.
