I just got back from the Women’s Leadership Conference in Green Bay, WI. It was a few incredible days of connecting, growing, and learning.
As it wrapped up, I looked around the room and realized something: a conference - no matter how inspired you feel when you leave - isn’t what creates a leader.
Leaders get activated in powerful rooms, yes.
But they get created after they leave.
Leaders aren’t made in grand moments. They’re forged in the in-between:
- How they respond after a setback.
- How they take action without 100% clarity.
- How they speak to themselves when no one is watching.
I'm slowly realizing - that's where I come in.
I help women become the leaders their next-level vision requires.
Yes, we talk about networking like her and dressing like her. But leadership runs deeper than that.
True leaders - those you feel when they enter a room - have:
- Trust in themselves
- Resilience after setbacks
- A deep, felt sense of worth
- The courage to act, even without clarity
Today, take a moment to reflect on who you are in the in-between.
❔ Are your habits strengthening your ability to show up with more purpose and power when the moment arises?
❔ Or are you finding yourself spiraling and questioning yourself more than you'd like?
There are no right or wrong answers. Just awareness that you can choose to use - or not.
If I can support you in this space, read on to learn about something exciting I'm putting together to help you strengthen your resilience muscle!
While I was lying in bed at 4:00 am with my conference buddy snoozing across from me, an idea hit me: a workshop designed to help you grow your resilience muscle. Because true leadership isn’t about taking action when it’s easy. It’s about how quickly you rise after being knocked down.
And I’m tired of seeing women give up on themselves and their vision because something threw them off their unicorn. 🦄
That’s why I'm piloting “Failure is Good for the Soul.”

"Andrea was so plugged in to me and my higher self that I always felt safe enough to make big discoveries and big revelations. I wasn't charging enough for my services and she showed me, in many different ways, why that wasn't serving me, and guided me into a self-discovery journey that empowered me to make lasting change with my pricing. This change was made to honor my ancestors and all the sacrifices they made to get me where I am today."
