Helping nonprofit leaders cope with the pressure to “get it right,” so that they can continue to make an impact without burning out
Is this you?
You feel a strong responsibility to live your values at work, support your team, and make the world and your workplace better.
You feel overwhelmed by the expectations others have of you, and the ones you place on yourselfl.
You’re unsure how to support your team while juggling everything else.
You’re afraid of being judged for not “getting it right.”
You’re exhausted and have no idea how you can possibly keep going at the pace that is being demanded of you.
You care so much about what you do… you want to do right by your team and your clients…and you are exhausted.
If this is you, you aren’t alone!
One-third of nonprofit leaders report being deeply concerned about their own burnout, with half of them more worried about burnout now than they were last year.
Stop feeling overwhelmed and start leading with confidence and compassion
You can make a powerful impact without sacrificing yourself

“I appreciated the connection, space to share a dilemma, and opportunity to process together. Tessa brings strong active listening that both helps you feel validated and ready to move forward. She does this in a way that shows she can be trusted to approach the conversation in a non-judgemental way, staying focused on having a positive impact. She also has a ton of resources to share if you ask!”

“Tessa brings a gift of supporting her partners through reflection and goal setting using a wide variety of strategies and tools. Her real super power though is her ability to break down walls and create brave spaces where people can show up, be vulnerable, talk about their mistakes, and commit to learning and accountability. I'm a much more confident and human-centered leader now as a result of Tessa's coaching!”

“Tessa has been a true thought partner to me over the past year. I greatly value her ability to sense when to jump in with advice, strategies, and opportunities for continued learning, and when to step back and simply question/guide me through a scenario I may have more clarity on than I thought. Either way, I always leave our calls with clear next steps, an idea of what I still need to think more about, and most importantly: a clearer head than I had at the start.”
