Leadership Coaching

Lead with clarity, confidence, and conviction.

The answers are already within you. Our coaching approach isn’t about prescribing solutions—it’s about helping you uncover them, remove barriers, and move forward with intention.

How it Works

We offer a flexible set of coaching formats to meet leaders where they are:

  • One-Time Sessions: A strategic tune-up, sounding board, or moment to reset.
  • Mini-Series (6–9 months): Seasonal accompaniment through transitions, milestones, or critical growth points.
  • Ongoing Coaching: Monthly check-ins to stay grounded, clear, and connected to your leadership.
  • On-Call Sessions: For returning or ongoing clients, we offer responsive support when you need it.

What We Work On

Coaching with Samara helps leaders:

  • Clarify values and tell your story with purpose
  • Build confidence and overcome self-doubt
  • Understand and responsibly wield personal and organizational power
  • Identify and access the resources you need to lead
  • Navigate change, transitions, and tough dynamics
  • Move internal and external barriers out of the way
  • Lead with authenticity, strategy, and a sense of possibility

Our Approach

We accompany leaders, not direct them. Our coaching is rooted in the belief that if you’ve been called (or thrown) into leadership, you’re already the right person for the role. We help you:

  • Name what matters
  • Identify where you’re stuck
  • Strategize toward what’s next
  • Lead with integrity, confidence, and alignment

We help you lead not only in your organization but in your life and community.

Who do we support?

Executive Directors and senior leaders navigating complex roles

“Julia has been an incredible support to me since 2022 when I launched Our Place. She is one of the few mentors I know who has “walked the walk” and I admire how she both continues to serve youth in her work and bring real life examples to our conversations as well as doing high-level work in Executive Coaching. She is realistic, kind, knowledgeable, and very helpful in decision-making processes or when you are feeling stuck. More than that, she is just a really really good person.”
