Meet Leslie
Welcome!
We all have a story. I’ll share part of mine and I hope I can hear yours someday.
I was a high achiever and excelled in most of the things I put my mind to – whether in school, on the sports fields or in my career. I pushed myself hard, held myself to high standards and found great success in all the ways I had defined.
After college, I spent a few years in Advertising before stepping away to get my MBA. That degree launched me into a new career path of management consulting, where I used my passion for people and my analytical problem solving skills to lead teams in developing growth strategies for brands and the businesses behind them.
When my first child was born, I took on a different role at my firm, leading recruiting initiatives and working in internal talent development. Things were coasting along and I was getting a bit restless, not knowing if this new path was a short or a long-term one. The uncertainty was keeping me from enjoying my day to day; I dreaded making the big decision on what direction to go in next. I was stuck.
Then one day, I got the push I needed: my family was given the opportunity to move to Hong Kong; I jumped at the chance! Only once I got here, I found myself at a crossroads: living in a new country, being a mom to two young children, going to a job that felt more like work than it did before, and waking up each day with a nagging feeling that I was full of potential but still unfulfilled.
With some help (including coaching!), I uncovered what I liked and didn’t like about the path I was on and decided to make some big changes. I started leaning into the things that truly brought me joy and in which I had a natural ability, and away from the things I did simply because I thought I was supposed to. By taking some pressure off, reconnecting with myself, and trusting the process, I was able to hit that magical ‘reset’ button and rebuild a life I’m proud of and that feels uniquely my own.
It allows me help others on their own journey of rediscovery and empowerment.
I love hearing stories and learning about the people behind them. I hope we can connect and I can be part of yours someday soon.
