We work with those who serve others: Mayors, commissioners, state reps & senators, congresspeople, city managers, department heads, staffers, advocates, organizers, activists, non-profit workers, and others. We work with human beings experiencing stress, anxiety, overwhelm, and burnout resulting from regular public criticism and the challenges of being a heart-centered leader in our toxic environment. We work with leaders and organizations who want to reach their highest potential in life + leadership.

Who we serve.

  • There is a dropout and retention epidemic in our world right now, and if we're honest, it makes sense. Our workplace and public environments are as toxic as any.

    It does not need to be this way. You have the power to change yourself and your organization's health. Everyone benefits from you being your happiest, healthiest, most productive self in leadership – especially your constituents and community.

    With mental-fitness coaching, you and your organization lead by example, putting your mask on first to better serve others. By doing so, you can stay in the game to make real, meaningful, impactful changes that your community needs now.

  • You are a passionate change-maker with a servant’s heart who has deep care and compassion, committed to a life of service, no matter the title.

    You sometimes feel like an outsider, different, don't fit in, and aren’t part of the ‘old boys club’.

    You sometimes feel overwhelmed, anxious, stressed out, angry, reactive, depressed, closed down, in your corner, hurt, stuck, frustrated, not good enough, like an imposter, or fear messing it up.

    You want to break through the fear, indecision, challenging relationships, threats, criticism, and ridicule with ease, grace, and poise to be impactful and effective as a leader.

    You desire better alignment, want to learn how to be more effective, and feel free, clear, honest, connected, safe, happy, and supported.

    You dream of playing all out in your role without decimating your spirit, family, and personal life.

  • Feeling stressed, down and out, frustrated, and not good enough can feel isolating and more than half of us have felt that way this year. Rather than being isolated, when given a safe intentional coaching container, we can own, accept, and share where we are, building authentic connections through shared experiences with our co-workers, immediately improving our well-being and organizational connection and performance.

    The reality of our workplace is this:

    · 81% of elected leaders experienced anxiety and/or depression last year.

    · 75% of us felt overwhelmed at some point.

    · 50% had the experience of feeling isolated and falling out of love with our communities. The irony.

    These experiences are not just in our heads:

    · 83% of elected officials experienced direct threats or persecution last year.

    · These public attacks are landing on more of us, with different job titles, daily.

    If you have felt these or any other way, congratulations - your millennial-old biological warning system is functioning correctly!

    Healing together is a choice, just as suffering alone is.

    These experiences can become THE KEYS TO SET YOU FREE and reach your highest potential.

    The secret of all top performers is to make EVERYTHING work for you – ESPECIALLY the adversity. Now you and your organization can learn how.

We provide coaching to help you get clear on your vision, build deep alignment, clear internal blocks, reprogram old stories, process trauma, and use all the challenges of public life for growth to get truly free, aligned, connected, safe, resilient, healthy, and effective - emerge into the world as your highest self in life and leadership. 

YOU CAN stay in the arena and thrive.

What we do.

  • There are numerous ways to seek support. This is the difference between them, using the driving analogy:

    Therapy: Looking in the rearview mirror, asking, “What was that?”, “Did I hit something?” and “How did that turn make me feel?”.

    Consulting: A backseat driver telling you where to go and what to do.

    Coaching: The race-car instructor who creates a safe learning space and introduces new approaches, tools, and techniques for you to integrate at your own pace. When you are ready, you won’t need us in the car to win races and adapt to the weather and tracks.

  • A method of coaching that cultivates deep internal transformation resulting in improved mental health and fitness, wholistic well-being, and improved performance in leadership.

    We lead you on a guided process of self-exploration to unearth the pre-existing highest expression of YOU, in life and leadership, that was already there.

    You already have everything you need inside of you to be exactly as you want in the world. A coach's job is to show you how to access that and let you find the tools and confidence that have always been there.

    We get hyper-clear about your purpose and vision. We use challenges that arise, internal or external, as a teacher, learning how they are here to serve us. We give ourselves what we want from the external world first. From this resourced place of safety acceptance, we delve deep into the unconscious patterns and childhood programming holding us back.

    We re-program these stories that once served us but no longer do at all six levels of the human experience – somatic, mental, emotional, behavioral, unconscious, and spiritual. Having resourced ourselves internally, we move into pristine, aligned, external action, building behaviors and habits with science-backed approaches to supercharge your success.

    You learn meta-habits, so when our container is complete, you will have the tools, confidence, and community to manage whatever season life throws at you next.

With our fiscal sponsor, at Legacy Global Programs, you can support our mission to heal our politics with large or small one-time and recurring donations and receive an immediate tax benefit.

The ELC Foundation was created at donor request to provide a tax benefit in exchange for direct investment in raising awareness and sharing practices of mental health, holistic well-being, self-care, and inner work with public servants nationwide.

The foundation is set up to ensure equity of service delivery in perpetuity and provide a vehicle in ongoing years for targeted delivery of services without concern for payment, enabling us to focus on at-need communities. 

The foundation operates as an evergreen fund. As equitable awareness leads organically to clients, profits will be re-invested in the business, amplifying each dollar's impact over time. We will not need to return for additional donations to continue delivering impact. 

Zero donor dollars will go to salary or overhead.
