Helping leaders navigate what comes next with clarity, confidence, and purpose.
Whether you're stepping into a larger role, leading through change, or reimagining your career, I'll help you cut through complexity, make confident decisions, and move forward with clarity.
For more than 20 years, I've helped leaders gain the clarity and confidence to navigate change, make better decisions, and grow into their next chapter.
WHO I HELP
You don't have to navigate your biggest leadership challenges alone.
Executive coaching for leaders who want to make better decisions, increase their influence, and grow into what's next.
Leadership development experiences that create lasting behavior change, not just engaging workshops. Custom facilitation, coaching, and leadership programs that help people and organizations grow together.
Leadership today is more complex than ever.
The leaders I work with aren't looking for quick answers or one-size-fits-all advice. They're looking for a trusted thinking partner. Someone who can help them untangle complex decisions, challenge their assumptions, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
My approach combines executive coaching, leadership development, and practical strategy so every conversation leads to meaningful action.
Working With the Best Clients from Organizations, such as...
REAL LEADERS. REAL RESULTS.
My clients often tell me they leave our conversations feeling lighter, clearer, and more confident than when they arrived.
That's because our work isn't about giving advice. It's about creating the space to think differently, uncover blind spots, and take meaningful action with confidence.

Gillian is an excellent coach who helped me to navigate a challenging period in my life. She listened carefully and reflected back what she heard from me, provided much-needed validation, and perhaps most importantly, asked me probing questions. These questions helped me to have a clearer perspective and arrive at the best possible solutions on my own, both in my professional and personal life.

Working with Gillian has been life changing! Her ability to listen, reflect back, and ask thoughtful questions makes her a skilled and valuable coach. Gillian helped crystalize my thinking about what is important to me, personally and professionally. Our discussions provided the inspiration and motivation to drive the change I wanted. This has made me a better leader, co-worker, parent, and spouse.

Working with Gillian over these past several weeks has been so beneficial for my mental health. I was in a negative head space with a new position at work. I didn’t realize how badly I needed to talk through how I was feeling, nor did I realize how heavy this issue was weighing on me. The day after my session with Gillian, I felt an enormous weight literally leave my body as I went to work. My whole outlook on the situation took this energetic turn for the better! I now feel more at peace with my new position and I know I’m where I’m supposed to be. It’s a pretty cool thing when your worries/concerns significantly lesson and bring about peace. Working with Gillian does exactly that and more!

I had the pleasure of working with Gillian professionally in the early 2000s, and just recently, with her as my coach. Gillian has had an innate sense of how to bring out the best in others since I’ve known her. Working with her as a coach, I saw immediate changes in my thinking and an increased self-awareness that allowed me to make small changes in my actions that are already leading to positive results in my life. For example, I speak to others very encouragingly and positively, but turns out I was not doing the same for myself! Having that awareness has helped me to increase my confidence and dream bigger as I approach a job change and an out-of-state move in the middle of a global pandemic. I know I can do this! I have all the skills, and Gillian has helped guide me in how to apply those and still be true to my core values. I’ve just completed my work with her and can’t wait to see what else is in store for me as I navigate these big life changes in the middle of a pandemic. I am no longer letting fear keep me complacent. Instead, I am genuinely excited to see what comes next, I’m open to whatever outcome appears, and have started down that path with more confidence in myself.
