About Us
Coach | Facilitator | Educator
“I work with professional women and emerging leaders to gain clarity, restore energy, and show up as the best version of themself, as measured by their impact as positive and inspiring role models, contributions to team alignment and ability to grow the next generation of leaders.”
Hello and welcome! I’m a leadership and life coach, facilitator and a community builder.
I support individuals to make informed, evidence-based, courageous decisions about who they are becoming, while also helping to reconnect with a slower, wiser, more intuitive form of knowledge that sustains wellbeing and sources of inspiration.
My Leadership Roots
For more than 20 years, I have worked in leadership roles across sport, sustainability, senior secondary and higher education, including at the University of Calgary, University of Alberta, and the Canadian Sport Institute Pacific. My role was often the same in each field to collaborate on the design and delivery of programs, develop and retain a talented team, and activate strategic plans to move from idea to action.
Time after time, I noticed technical skills were never the real barrier. The real important work was more personal. Self-trust. Navigating self-doubt. Emotional intelligence. Clarity of values to inform decisions. Confidence to step into a bigger role.
This realization led me to complete a Master of Arts in Global Leadership at Royal Roads University, train with the Co-Active Training Institute, obtain EQ-i 2.0 certification and become a Playing Big facilitator. Each framework provided structure and evidence to something I had already been doing intuitively. Helping people tune into their own wisdom and act on it.
My approach is centred around the belief clients are already resourceful, creative and whole. We are partners in critical thinking and form a collaborative partnership to move closer toward their goals and ideal state of being.
A Shift Towards Holistic Wellbeing
Alongside my professional path, another journey was quietly growing to find a better balance for myself. As a former competitive athlete and someone who enjoyed being constantly-in-motion, I have learned to pace myself. As I focused on increasing my own energy and wellbeing, I learned to redefine what it means to live a life on purpose and show up in a more sustainable way.
I continued to research and explore alternative holistic practices to support myself and spent my spare time learning traditional plant uses and studying herbal actions in a practical, everyday way. Herbalism taught me something leadership theory never could. Growth happens in different seasons and the simple truth that nothing blooms all year. Rest is not failure ... thoughtful, seasonal recovery is essential to perform at our best.
This perspective now informs everything I offer. Not as a replacement for coaching or leadership education, but as a deeper foundation beneath it that supports overall health and wellbeing. I care deeply about designing a more regenerative and humane way of living and working. One that values inner development as well as our relationship to the communities and natural systems that sustain us.
Leaping Fox Consulting exists as a place for that work to unfold.
