Helping leaders master resilience and turn their
setbacks into unstoppable breakthroughs
My Story
For years I looked like I had it all together as the leader, the encourager, the dependable one while silently battling autoimmune illness, the grief of losing loved ones, and the deep scars of growing up with a severe stutter that once left me afraid to speak. Despite it all, I showed up through tears, through pain, through a 20-year career in education where I taught students, led educators, and created meaningful change. I was also mentoring, building side businesses, and doing everything I could to hold it all together, but in chasing excellence, I poured so much into others that I nearly forgot how to pour into myself.
Burned out and unraveling, I reached my breaking point which became my becoming point. That moment taught me I wasn’t created just to survive what life threw at me; I was created to transform through it, and now I help others do the same.
“Alethea gave an outstanding talk on finding meaning in health care, and she emphasized a focus on caring—that clinical providers need to find connections to their patients, and understand their patients as people with goals, fears, hopes. Our audience of physicians, advanced practice providers, nurses, and their loved ones, benefited from her unique perspective, as her talk was much more than buzz words about wellness!”
