Presence-Based Leadership Coaching
Lead with confidence, clarity and calm. In today’s fast-paced world, leaders are expected to navigate complexity, inspire teams, and deliver results—all while maintaining balance and resilience. Presence-based leadership coaching offers a transformative path to lead with authenticity and grounded confidence, no matter the challenges you face.
What is Presence-Based Leadership Coaching?
Presence-based leadership coaching is a holistic approach that integrates mindfulness, NLP and emotional intelligence. It’s about cultivating your inner resources so you can:
- Stay calm under pressure
- Make clear, intentional decisions
- Inspire trust and connection in your relationships
- Lead with purpose and integrity
By honing your ability to stay present, regulate your nervous system, understand your own and others’ emotions, you’ll enhance not only your leadership effectiveness but also your overall wellbeing.
Why Presence Matters in Leadership
Presence is more than just being “in the moment.” It’s about cultivating a grounded awareness that allows you to:
- Respond rather than react in challenging situations
- Foster psychological safety for your team
- Navigate uncertainty with grace and creativity
- Show up as your authentic self, inspiring others to do the same
When you lead with presence, you create ripple effects that enhance collaboration, innovation, and trust within your organisation.

“Every conversation I’ve ever had with her has left me feeling on fire with excitement and possibility.”
“In an increasingly populated coaching world many coaches can appear very same-y, which is why Steph is such a breath of fresh air! She has lovingly challenged my assumptions, gently pushed me to let go of what no longer served me, helped me re-connect with & fully embrace what I truly want in life. I leave each session with Steph feeling remotivated, full of new ideas and perspectives and most importantly, that I am capable.”
“With her fierce love and gentle yet “no-bullshit” style, Steph holds a safe space for you while challenging you to step outside of your comfort zone. She walks her talk and literally shines from the inside out. If you are ready for real transformation in your life, she is the one who can help you realize it!”
“Coaching with Steph has been and continues to be the most impactful and surefire way for me to access my inner wisdom. She holds a space that is supremely sacred and heart-centered. Steph’s belief in my greatness has quickly become my belief in my greatness. We worked together to determine where I was out of alignment with myself, and we mapped out the way home. If you gift yourself a bundle of sessions with Steph, she will guide you in reconnecting with your truest self.”
“It was incredible co-exploring the depth of authentic connection and vulnerable boundaries with Steph. It felt like she was able to provide me with a reassurance that it was safe to feel beyond my boundaries and actively question my conditioning.”
“In every interaction I have with Steph I can see her gift for being an inner door-opener who liberates the best in me. It feels like being with an old friend and fellow pathfinder. It’s as if she can listen not just to me but to my soul.”
“I worked with Steph on the strategic development of my startup. I felt tremendously understood in my vision, guided in a business sense, and it helped me to be accountable. I am very grateful for her support.”
“Before I started working with Steph I believed that being “strong” was a value of mine and that going it alone equaled strength. I am walking away with a deep knowledge that asking for help brings me in communion with other people which is a deep desire of mine. My favorite part of working together is the connection and love that I feel from Steph as my coach. I know there is no terrain that I can’t go – it is all safe and will all be held with utmost respect and reverence. Steph is a beautiful coach and soul. She is so extremely present and the space she gives her clients is so full of possibility and belief in them.”
