My background is in nonprofits, corporate social impact, innovation and strategy, and community building. I work exclusively with purpose-driven people. Whether you're already doing work that makes a positive impact in the world, or you're looking to make a career change, I specifically support you in making your journey to making your biggest positive impact in the world while living your most fulfilling life.

Another core part of my approach is that diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging serve as the backdrop of our work together. My certification is from Leadership That Works' Coaching for Transformation program which was led by community organizers and social justice activists. I am here to serve those who are committed to making organizations, communities, and world a more equitable and just place.

I'm also deeply passionate about serving impactful people at their moments of transition. Change can be especially isolating and confusing for purpose-driven people who grapple with questions like the ethics of moving from nonprofits to CSR, finding a great mentor in a space filled with egos, and so much more. I'm here to help you navigate these complex challenges with validation, ease, and a sense of playfulness.

The Courageous Leadership Challenge is a 1-week virtual program running January 10-14, 2022 designed to jumpstart your leadership growth with daily prompts and challenges to ignite your clarity, confidence, and courage to grow individually and as a leader. 

You'll get a daily message with a challenge in Circle.so which will also go to your email. You'll complete the challenge, share your results in Circle and get helpful insights and support from our community of fellow changemakers and Julia. Then on Friday at the end of the week, join a LIVE virtual workshop to integrate your learning, grow relationships with the community, and get clear on how to take action.

Each day through the week of January 10th-14th, 2022, Julia will be posting a new challenge in Circle (which will also go to your email). You'll have 24 hours from when it's posted to complete it to accommodate a range of timezones. There's no need to purchase any special materials - you'll just need a place to write, physically or digitally, and some time set aside to think, reflect, and share. Participants are also strongly encouraged to read responses from others in the group and offer their support and reflections to one another.

Many participants in the Courageous Leadership Challenge have shared the following results from this one week program:

*Increased confidence in leadership

*Clarity in next steps in career

*Momentum to make big changes

*A sense of community with like-minded purpose-driven people
