Meet our Founder
Hi, I'm Leah.
I'm a professional educator, author, facilitator, speaker, and communication coach.
My work is focused on helping people develop the self-awareness and practical skills they need to become excellent communicators. Skilled communication leads to meaningful connections that help us heal emotionally, bridge our ideological differences, and make space for one another's perspectives. I believe that lack of connection is the deep driver of so many of the collective problems we face today, and that working together to foster more authentic connections between us, despite our differences, is the answer to them.
I have first-hand experience with the transformative effects of learning and implementing the powerful communication skills I now teach. I began studying communication skills as the desperate parent of a teenager, searching for any kind of a parenting life-line. However, as I learned and applied powerful, science backed communication skills in both personally and professionally, I found that every area of my life benefitted immensely, not just my parenting!
Now, it is my mission and my passion to pass these powerful communication tools and strategies on to you and others through writing, speaking, training, and coaching. I'm committed to helping you become the skilled communicator you want to be so you can build the life you want to live, one connection at a time.
