Research shows that women are holding too few senior leadership positions in Fortune 500 organizations and in general.
Yet, ironically, women still carry the majority of leadership responsibilities on the home front.
Women also unconsciously downplay their qualifications while men overstate theirs.
None of these facts shock you, do they? Research supports these as facts.
But you already know this—and feel this—every day! ​
Let’s face it. The workplace and world demand a lot of us and it’s exhausting.
These are unprecedented times. We are undergoing big shifts everywhere. And you get to manage the crazy that comes with it. Lucky you.
Do you support your team, your family, your friends—and then yourself last, if at all?
BUT YOU VALUE YOUR PROFESSIONAL AND PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT.
And somewhere deep inside, you know just how much more you have to offer.
...if only you had the time magically blocked on your calendar to help yourself flourish in every part of life. Because your time is a precious resource.
And if only you had other women to do the journey with! But you have been disappointed by women who tear you down, instead of lift you up.
Wouldn’t it be great if there was one-stop shopping for all you need?
You struggle to find the space where you could grow and thrive in leadership and life—a space where you can be fully yourself and supported unconditionally, (ya know, the way you support others).​
Those sacred and special spaces are hard to come by. You wonder if anyone gets it.
We do.
Our program title says it all: To GET Her.
We see you. We GET what you deal with and what you need.
We know you are a woman of real significance or you wouldn’t be reading this...
​Now, as an aside, if I had a magic lamp and genie, I’d wish for a chef, housekeeper, masseuse, life coach, and personal assistant all rolled up in one nice, neat package.
If you had a magic lamp, you might wish for a life & leadership coach, enhanced leadership wisdom, mindset hacks to help you stand apart from others, colleagues who stand by your side and support you, a magic mirror to see yourself clearly, a plan for up-leveling your life and leadership...and a vacation.
You may be wondering where that magic lives...
​Where could you turn to grow and thrive in leadership and life?
​
How could you go from tired to inspired?​
How could you unleash your leadership sass?​
​
​Where can your next level transformation take place?
PICTURE THIS

Here’s the bio to share with your friends who might say “she’d be cool to hang out with for a year...”
​
Hi, I’m so glad you’re here. I’m just a small-town gal from humble beginnings. I’ve been married...and unmarried, so I know a thing or two about change. I’m the proud mom of 2 amazing sons. I’ve spent the majority of my parenting life on the sidelines of sports fields. And I’m a life-long lacrosse fan as a result. I love to travel for work and fun—South Africa and Beijing were special ones. I recharge with bootcamp workouts. I buy myself fresh flowers every week because they lift me up and inspire me. I stand 5-feet tall but forget I’m short. I'm creative at heart. Writing is a passion. One of my strengths is WOO. (ask me about this later).
​
I live with a heart open to possibility, a willingness to do what it takes, and a faith that it all works out. It’s my life's credo.
​
​I facilitate this program with my truly gifted colleague, Jessica McCoppin Malachi. Together we bring a diversity of age, race, experience and even height to the table!

Jessica McCoppin Malachi
Jessica brings a wealth of experience hard-won from leadership roles in local and national public health organizations, university systems, and the finance and hospitality industries
As the founder of JMM Consulting, Jessica works with individuals, teams, and organizations to restore humanity to the workplace through practices and principles that crush chaos, enhance communication, and fill your professional toolbox with powerful tools to help you level up your leadership game.
Jessica is committed to working with client who are committed to articulating and amplifying their values through their work in the world. She loves working with clients who want to make the world a healthier, more joyful place to inhabit. Her background is in public health system transformation and community health education/empowerment. Jessica holds a Masters degree in Public Health.
I've always been a bit of a rebel, questioning authority and asking, "Why are we doing it this way?" from a young age.
My curiosity isn’t just reserved for challenging the status quo—I'm also a master untangler. Whether it's those impossible knots in shoelaces, necklaces, or my own curly hair (shoutout to my fellow curly-haired folks!), I know that yanking and tugging only makes things worse. Untangling chaos, whether physical or metaphorical, requires understanding how those knots got there in the first place, a few trusty tools, a healthy dose of patience, and a plan to keep things moving forward.
That's exactly what I bring to the table—my knack for applying these chaos-busting skills to help you unravel the mess and implement sustainable solutions, so you or your team can get back to doing good work, and doing it well.Originally hailing from Southern California, I’ve lived all over the United States. I've developed a talent for spotting a good street taco from a mile away, embracing snowy winter weather, thinking in four time zones, and saying "y'all" without a second thought.
When I’m not taming chaos, you’ll find me buried in a book, deep into a podcast, experimenting in the kitchen, or planning my next adventure. Beneath it all, I’m a wild child at heart, still asking “Why?...” and always ready for the next challenge. - Jessica

Sponsor a rising woman leader in your organization and show her how much she's valued.
Let’s do this thing!
Our next COMING TOGETHER Cohort will launch January 2025. (And then not again for another year!) I don’t want you to miss out on the very experience that will bring you to the next level...if only you’ll say YES to YOU! You know it’s about time!

This mastermind is specifically for women leaders looking to maximize their professional and personal development in a supportive community of like-minded professional women.
Interviews will take place this Fall, and we do expect these spots to fill quickly, so I encourage you to not overthink the answers on your interest form, and to just get it in. ;)
If you're like me, you probably have a few more questions. You'll be able to ask them in your interest form, and Jessica or I will reach out to you with answers. So, don’t wait. Aren’t you tired of waiting for someone else to take care of you?

​
Need some courage to have that conversation? Big reminder: Organizations today are needing to fill their talent pipelines with...talented WOMEN! They are wanting to RETAIN ...talented women. They are needing to create resilient rising leaders! That’s YOU!
