What others say:

“When I started working with Darrell, I was convinced that I was in the wrong job, I was feeling anxious, depressed and out of place. Darrell helped me to realize that the changes I needed to make were not external – they were internal. He helped me to tame my inner gremlins and negative self-talk and stand in my light and truth. To remember I am amazing, I am an asset. And Darrell knew it too. I am so grateful for his grace, his presence and his coaching prowess. Don’t give it a second thought – commit to coaching with Darrell.” Entrepreneur Partner—Tanzie

“I think the biggest thing I learned was that I need to take full responsibility for my work and fully show up as myself. With this new job, I’m going into it with the primary mindset of how I can apply my skills immediately. Being in that active mindset has really helped.” Emerging Leader—Nick

“Working with Darrell on getting to the “whys” of my thought patterns was such a productive experience. He taught me how to stop and question my negative thoughts - even mid-thought! There is an inexplicable relief that comes with this practice. I find myself referring to it daily! I am grateful for Darrell’s gentle challenges to pause and reflect with an open mind. My relationships feel lighter, and I’ve noticed I am more patient with myself. What a gift!” Emerging Leader—Twila

FAQ

  • Curiosity is where it all starts! It is from curiosity that we are able to explore what is possible. Lets start by simply having an initial conversation. Schedule time with me.

  • Leaders in transition — New role, promotion, acquisition, or stepping into ownership. The external shift is forcing internal recalibration.

     Emerging leaders — High potential, stepping up, developing the self-awareness to lead sustainably.

     Successful people at a crossroads — They've achieved what they set out to achieve and are now asking "is this it?" Outwardly confident, inwardly uncertain.

     Entrepreneurs and founders hitting a ceiling — The business has grown beyond what got them here. They need to evolve as a leader or become the bottleneck. Lonely at the top.

    Leaders inheriting dysfunction — Stepping into teams, boards, or organizations with trust issues and cultural debt they didn't create but must now navigate.

     Nonprofit executive directors — Often underpaid, over-responsible, isolated, and navigating boards who don't fully understand operational realities.
