Joanna

Leadership and Presence Consultant

A session with me is…
Empowering and transformational—helping you own your voice, presence, and leadership in a way that feels authentic and intentional.

One life experience that helps me relate to my clients is…
Realizing early in my career that trying to conform in male-dominated rooms limited my influence, and learning that my power comes from fully showing up as myself.

Three things I want clients to feel post-session are…
Confident, authentic, and empowered.

Past experience that qualifies me for this role is…
15 years of leadership development experience at companies including JetBlue, Microsoft, L’Oréal, Tiffany & Co., Red Bull North America, lululemon, and Daily Burn; leading teams as large as 85 and developing leadership programs for women leaders.

When a woman fully owns her voice, presence, and power, everything shifts—not just for her, but for everyone around her. I help women shed outdated expectations, embrace their strengths, and build leadership skills like self-advocacy, executive presence, and courageous communication. My approach blends psychology, strategy, and style to support women in leading with confidence and authenticity—because the workplace doesn’t need more perfect people, it needs more real, self-led women who know their worth and aren’t afraid to own it.

In Put Your Armor On: The PhD is IN

Academia runs on brilliance, but its culture can wear you down in a hundred small ways: someone takes credit for your idea, another committee lands on your plate, a colleague makes a joke at your expense, or a meeting gets lost in politics. If you’ve started making yourself smaller to keep the peace, this conversation is for you.
