Unpopular opinion?
Leadership and parenting share the same foundations

But to harness the synergies, you need new tools

This might be you if you're in the middle of increasingly higher stakes and are:

Something needs to change - maybe it's the habits that have been just getting you by, your inner self-talk, how you handle conflict, or how you take care of yourself. The cost of how you're doing things right now is becoming too high.

Stepping into a new role, with high stakes and high visibility

Taking on a new scope, that feels big and unknown

Dealing with messy internal politics, and you're reaching a breaking point

Inheriting a new team, and you need to build trust fast

Navigating an acquisition or layoff, and you need to steady the ship

Finalizing a round of funding, and you're struggling to keep up with the speed

You've Realized: Something Needs to Change

You're starting to see that the skills and ways of being (and reacting) that got you here won't be enough to get you where you want to go next.

As a leader, human, and parent.

Maybe you're feeling like your habits have been just getting you by, your inner self-talk is holding you back, how you handle conflict isn't something you're proud of, or how you take care of yourself well, you just aren't The cost of how you're doing things right now is becoming too high.

I help you build the tools to navigate not just the details of change and leadership challenges, but find and keep the person you want to be through it all

What it's Like Working with Nalani

Hear from clients directly

"Nalani helped me navigate the million and one critical moments as an entrepreneur, leader, and parent that are so so hard to figure out on your own. Myself and our company wouldn’t have been able to withstand the instability without having her strength by our side."

Alina Vandenberghe

Co-Founder & Co-CEO, Chili Piper

"Before, I felt like I was floundering. Now, I am an entrepreneur. I needed help understanding why I felt so unsatisfied despite being lucky enough to land top jobs [at Google and Amazon]. Nalani's pointed questions quickly helped me see that hadn't been giving myself permission to be the entrepreneur that I want to be. Being more deliberate about understanding [what was possible] helped the months that followed feel like the most productive I have ever had."

Adam Stober

Founder, Heroic Services

"I could write a novel on how Nalani has impacted me. She is, without a doubt, one of the most important people I have worked with as I navigate the many ups and downs of startups. I always leave our sessions with clarity and a sense of calmness, allowing me to take my current challenge head on."

Elyssa Stewart

Director of Product, Chili Piper

"Working with Nalani has been life changing. She's helped me become more thoughtful in my work and in my life. She has helped me gain clarity on what I really want, pushes me to think differently and more deeply, and has given me the confidence to make meaningful change. My fiancé even remarked, "Nalani is the best thing that has ever happened to you."
