Goleman EI Emotional Intelligence Certified Coach, experienced writer, Constellations Facilitator, and workplace strategist invested in equity and positive social change.

I’m Liz

I help leaders and entrepreneurs live, work, and influence for the greater good.

My work bridges business-oriented strategy and intuition-guided development. I have spent over a decade at the intersection of corporate culture, storytelling, and leadership development—a place where transformation happens.

Driven by a lifelong interest in systems, psychology, and communication, my work is grounded in the belief that we all possess deep inherent wisdom. That we are all natural leaders. I’m here to help you live, work and communicate from a place of wisdom, power, and purpose.

INFORMED BY DATA, GUIDED BY INTUITION.

I hold Master’s Degrees in both Organizational Psychology and in Marriage and Family Therapy, and I’m a Goleman EI Emotional Intelligence Certified Coach. My extensive training with Daniel Goleman and my studies with feminist writing mentor Kelly Diels have greatly shaped the way I work, relate, and coach. I keep social justice and equitable social change at the center of my work. With nearly a decade of experience evaluating corporate cultures with The Great Place to Work Institute (the worldwide authority on workplace culture), I believe in the world-changing impact of trust-based work cultures—and I believe we need them now more than ever.

Let's Talk

My Story

I’ve always been pulled toward work that raises our collective consciousness.

As a young girl, I remember looking out at the world and saying to my dad, “So many people, so little time.” So many stories, so much healing to do.

For a long time, I thought I would become a therapist: listening to people’s stories and helping them express their souls. I dreamt of collecting photographs and stories in a thick coffee table book.

But as I grew up, I became more and more interested in the structures and societal influences that shaped our personalities, actions, cultural beliefs, and inner dialogues.

It started in high school, which I hated. I didn’t understand the structures of repression, the inauthenticity, the arbitrary expectations.

My eyes were opened to the controlling systems that stifle our greatest gifts and discount our profound wisdom.

Throughout my college-aged years and after, I studied, lived, and traveled all around Western Europe. At age 28, I bought a one-way ticket to India, where I spent four incredible months exploring the country and my inner landscape, then continued a year-long journey through Nepal, Southeast Asia, and parts of Africa. I learned that I thrive when I’m forced to adapt. I’m at my best when I stay open to change but remain attentive, organized and consistent. (I lived out of a backpack but always had the ingredients for a mini altar at hand.)

India upended my understanding of Yoga, which became an important lesson about going to the source of a thing—understanding tradition and wisdom before it has been manipulated and commercialized. This particular lesson is now reflected in how I understand leadership.

After spending time studying and working in both spirituality and psychology, I moved from California back to Massachusetts to raise my child. As I started working with Daniel Goleman and others invested in the work of EI and heart-centered leadership coaching, all of my experiences—personal and professional—cohered around the importance of paradigm-shifting leadership.

I live in Western Massachusetts with my daughter and partner, where I work with clients all over the country, continue to work and write with Daniel Goleman, and have the privilege of collaborating with others invested in improving how we live, lead and work.
