Soar Instead of Settle or Seethe
Become successful, satisfied and relieved by mastering the skill of asking for your ideas to be heard and needs to be met with clarity, confidence, and conviction.
I coach female leaders when the challenges isn't the work - it's the conversations: aligning stakeholders, mobilizing others, protecting their energy, and not doing it all alone - at work or home.
Using Power of the Ask™, the Enneagram, NLP, somatic methods, and 16 years of corporate experience, we evolve how you communicate. So you get results with influence and alignment, not effort or exhaustion.
This state of effortless is called soaring.
For aspiring leaders, I offer digital courses so you can build the skills and mindset before you have the title.
I'm Ready to Soar
It’s not your workload or your people that’s exhausting and frustrating you - it’s how you’re communicating and what you believe is possible for yourself.
When you learn to ask and believe differently, change happens - so does relief.
"A work problem I’d been carrying for over a year completely disappeared!
The conversation went better than I could have imagined - including how heard and respected I felt. Not only did I my problem disappear, I walked away relieved and wanting to stay."
- Anonymous, Head of HR @ Financial Services / Crypto Asset Management

I'm Jacqueline
As a former corporate leader turned Executive Coach and Conversation Specialist - and creator of Power of the Ask™, I equip ambitious women and organizations with the tools and mindset turn chaos into calm and ideas into influence.
During my 16 years at Disney and Deloitte - across Los Angeles, London, and San Francisco building and leading teams - I learned that what we often call leadership is really conditioning: doing more, holding it all together, and calling the pressure “success.”
I was doing everything right - yet every conversation felt like a tug-of-war between advocating for what was best and managing how I’d be perceived. It left me exhausted, frustrated, and quietly resentful.
The turning point came when I realized it wasn’t my workload that was burning me out - it was the way I was communicating and what I believed was possible. So I built systems and upgraded my beliefs and transformed from overworking and over-explaining to leading and speaking with calm confidence that moves people and makes space to breathe.
Now, I teach women to create leadership that's effective, influential, and actually enjoyable by combining corporate acumen with Power of the Ask™, NLP, Somatic tools, the Enneagram, and my Human Design as a 4/6 Projector.
Because real leadership isn’t about doing more -
- it's about mastering conversations and beliefs to move things forward while upholding boundaries.

Success Stories
Conversations That Changed Careers
These testimonials show what happens when women learn to lead through clarity and confidence instead of effort.
Each transformation began with one conversation - and became a ripple of confidence, collaboration, real results and relief.
Leading as a CEO - Without the Overwhelm
"Through our work, I not only earned the CEO title, but built a team that thrives without me doing it all.
I’m still busy but no longer overwhelmed, and Power of the ask is an essential tool in how I lead as a CEO. Our people are thriving because of it - and I'm less stressed."
- Cori, CEO of Townsend Public Affairs
From ‘Helping’ to Strategic Leadership
"I now have the recognition and respect I craved, I started delegating (so so amazing), and can always get clarity on what I should be focusing on - which enables me to prioritize and have more space.
With Jacqueline’s tools, every conversation feels lighter. I’m effective without over-explaining or worrying about bothering others.
It's a MASSIVE change from before coaching when I couldn't get the outcome from my colleagues I hoped for, i.e. trust that I can do more than 'just' run the office, that people should truly listen to my suggestions or that I have a strategic thinking cap. Now I’m trusted, heard, confident, and happier.”

From Almost Leaving to Fully Leading
“Before working with Jacqueline, I was on the verge of leaving. Now, I’m voicing what I need clearly and confidently - and being heard.
My boss takes my input seriously, our communication flows, and I’ve fallen back in love with my job. Our team is thriving, and so am I.”
- Rosa, Co-Founder @ Rupa Health
