Is this you?

You got into this work because you care deeply and you give it everything, it's part of who you are. You run a nonprofit, lead an organizing effort, or hold elected office and you take seriously your responsibility to build a more just world.

You're lying awake at 3am wondering, "Am I doing enough? Am I doing it right? How long can I possibly keep this up?"
You want to be the kind of leader people deserve and you're afraid you won’t measure up when the moment comes.
You're unsure how to support your team and community and meet their expectations, and that weight is always with you.
You look confident from the outside but inside you're replaying each meeting, decision, and email that you sent wondering if you got it right.
The margin for error feels non-existent and the stakes feel too high to slow down, even as you know you can’t keep going at this pace.

You got into this work to make a real difference and you've made commitments you believe in to your team, your community, your constituents, and yourself.

The reality of showing up every day, battling entrenched unjust systems and institutions, and performing optimism and certainty is taking a toll.

You don't have to figure it out alone.

“Working with Tessa has been a transformative experience both personally and professionally. Her coaching helped me navigate complex challenges with clarity and confidence, while staying true to my values of inclusion and sustainability. Her guidance has fundamentally changed the way I lead and how my teams support and engage with one another, ultimately making us stronger and more impactful.”
-Giselle Ferro Puigbo
“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!”
-Amanda N.
“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!”
-Brean Witmer
“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.”
-Bekah R.
