“
I had an outstanding experience working with Leah. She was challenging, well prepared, focused thoughtful, patient and encouraging. I expected her to help me create the next steps forward in my professional role but with her help I am motivated far beyond those initial expectations. I am now thinking deeper, making bold decisions and dreaming bigger than ever!

Working with Leah has been an incredibly positive and impactful experience. What really sets Leah apart is her deep understanding of discipline, resilience, and goal-setting—qualities that are essential not just in athletics, but in everyday life. She leverages her past experiences into life coaching that has helped me understand my blocks and to get out of my own way. Instead of just talking about goals, she helped me break them down into actionable steps and helped me hold myself accountable. Leah’s approach has kept me motivated and accountable.
Overall, working with Leah has given me structure, confidence, support and the encouragement to push forward toward my goals! I would highly recommend Leah to anyone looking to level up both personally and professionally.
Thank you,

Working with Leah Stancil was incredibly helpful in expanding my mind to considering all pathways for my career pivot. She really unlocked areas of interest that I had previously and subconsciously tucked away for fear of dreaming too big. Leah was patient and kind while also being direct in helping me understand my own values and strengths in a way that pointed me towards career paths congruent with my life. I looked forward to my calls with Leah every week and would enjoy working with her again.
