IT’S time to lead!
For those navigating the weight of leading others — whether you're building culture, driving change, or figuring out how to lead in a way that still feels like you.
“Why is my team going over my head with department culture issues?”
It started with an email…
A team member skipped their manager and went straight to HR.
HR responded by sending a company-wide email with new restrictions, no context.
It seemed like a small situation — a communication misstep, an overreaction.
But when Mabel and I sat down to talk it out, we realized the issue ran deeper: her team didn’t trust management enough to bring concerns directly. That single action was a symptom of something unspoken.
Through that conversation, Mabel uncovered something powerful — not about process, but about culture.
About what trust looks like inside a team.
And about the kind of leadership that opens space, not shuts it down.
Now, she’s not just managing.
She’s leading — with intention, empathy, and clarity.
Things people often bring into this space:
“How do I rebuild trust with my team?”
“Am I being too hands-off… or too controlling?”
“How do I lead when I’m still figuring it out myself?”
“Why are small issues blowing up so fast?”
You don’t need to have the answers yet.
You just need to start the right conversation.
Hear it from Mabel…
"I thought the issue was about one email — but the conversation helped me realize it was about trust. It completely shifted how I lead and how I show up for my team."
