“Our job is not to deny the story, but to defy the ending—to rise strong, recognize our story, and rumble with the truth until we get to a place where we think, Yes. This is what happened. This is my truth. And I will choose how the story ends.” ~ Brené Brown

The world needs resilient leaders who can rise after a fall.

Rising Strong™ is an experiential, repeatable process that allows leaders to get back up after hard falls.  Based on the work of Dr. Brené Brown, Rising Strong is designed to help you stand in your strengths and connect with what makes you uniquely, authentically you. By owning your story, you will discover how to slay perfectionism, tolerate (and maybe even welcome) vulnerability, increase your self-awareness, and unleash innovation and creativity you never knew you had.

Together we will walk through the three-acts of rising: 

  • Act I – The Reckoning – Walk into your story. Gain clarity on your current ways of processing the world around you.
  • Act II – The Rumble – Own your story. Learn to rumble with the BIG topics that keep you stuck.
  • Act III – The Revolution – Write a new ending. Reignite blocked creativity and change how you show up in the world.
