How to bring all of yourself to work. Understanding who you’re being, and how your energy affects the entire workplace and your life. Learn actionable tools to keep the energy clean and dodge toxicity
Power House Presentations: If you’re going to be a leader its not enough to just look like one. In this seminar learn how to speak up like a leader utilizing the art of public speaking.
Conscious Communication - given the corporate social landscape, this is a powerful time to practice conscious awareness when it comes to communication. Authentic listening,, take more pauses before speaking, emailing, or texting. Noticing the moments in conversation where you are responding from a reactive place.
How to train leaders in a way that imparts lasting transformation. Most executives aren’t doing okay, they’re overthinking. A lot of trainings today miss mark on helping the executive see their own personal blindspots and doesn’t give them any strategies or tools to navigate around them…. Moving past the inner critic, overthinking and effectively using energy management tools, bringing the whole self to communication so you’re not a robot.

The Conscious Leader - combustible and combative energy have become all too commonplace in the workplace. We all carry warrior energy within ourselves and each other, but in today’s world the workplace should not be a place where we feel the need to go to battle. This workshop invites participants to notice where they may be adding on more personal armor through negative emotions such as jealousy, anger or judgement. They’ll learn how to bring compassion and conscious awareness into their life as a practice to build a pathway to inner contentment and peace.
Telling the Executive Story
Modalities on how to coach effectively using more transformation vs information
Walking the Talk: Designed to help the so called “awakened” and “enlightened” professionals inside the training and development industry de-weaponize their personal transformation expertise by dealing with their own inauthentic ways of being and toxic mental patterns so they can genuinely focus on the important work of helping others. This workshop is for the conscious leader, healer, helper, who needs to step into their own darkness to experience their shadow at a deeper level to keep leveling up.
The Real Story: Overcoming the fear of using your mess as your message on a daily basis. Removing the mask of leadership perfection to be vulnerable and authentic. Learning strategic frameworks to design your unique narrative and break it down without it breaking you down.
Conscious Communication: Change your thinking to change your speaking. Doing the inner work to manage who you are being in every moment and making sure it aligns with your intention
Tune In: Accessing Your Inner Coach - Each and every day we have the choice to step into the highest, most aligned version of who we are. To do this, it takes confidence in our power, trust in the unfolding of events and circumstances, and a willingness to hear the voice of our fears but not listen to them.
The Secret Behind the Secret: We’ve all been programmed to “get” more - manifestation has become all the rage these days and in the workplace “expansion”, “scale” and “growth” are more than just keywords they are values modern companies live by. But before you can do or have anything - there’s one thing you should first focus on - and that’s who you are “being” because its your level of consciousness in the process of getting what you want that shapes the quality and value of the experience.

Testimonials

Chad Rountree, Chief Executive Officer, Propel America

Tihanna’s coaching services came highly recommended to me by my wife. As a newly appointed CEO at the time, I recognized the importance of understanding my influence on my team and the broader organization. I was also seeking support to strengthen my confidence in being the organization's chief storyteller (both internally and externally). That’s why I believed working with Tihanna would be valuable.

When Tihanna and I first began our sessions, the two significant challenges I faced were understanding the underlying perspectives that shaped my leadership and overcoming a lack of self-confidence that led me to over-prepare for external engagements, be it fundraising efforts, panel discussions, or high-stakes partnership meetings.

Tihanna's Energy Leadership process was a game-changer for me. Through her guidance, I was able to delve into the beliefs and mindsets that influenced my actions and decisions. Her approach, combined with invaluable feedback from peers and introspective assessments, provided clarity on my leadership style and its impact.

Tihanna introduced me to leadership and speaking frameworks with hands-on practices that boosted my confidence, especially in high-stakes situations. Her insights into communication overall were particularly enlightening. With her expertise, I not only have become more self-aware but I have also learned to harness my strengths and address my weaknesses effectively.

Working with Tihanna has been a pivotal experience. Her guidance and strategies have empowered me to lead with greater confidence and clarity. I am deeply appreciative of her unwavering support and expertise.

Crystal Rountree, Chief Revenue & Development Officer, Teach for America

Tihanna is a captivating communicator and masterful coach. I appreciated how she infused storytelling and reflective questioning throughout our conversation, and created space for me to pause and capture my thoughts along the way.

I found our coaching conversation extremely helpful, reflective, and inspiring - I even cleared an additional two hours after our allotted time to continue the conversation.

I'm looking forward to our follow-up call for my Energy Leadership Index assessment and to more coaching engagements with her in the future!

Lindsay Kelly, VP, Media Relations Director of Brand and Communications, Vela Education Fund

Tihanna is an exceptional communicator, coach, and human. Her people-first approach allows her to deeply understand the untapped strengths of individuals and the places where there are mental blockages that need to be loosened.

She is extremely talented at fostering safe, fun, engaging, and energizing communities and trainings where people feel comfortable working through their individual and collective challenges to strengthen their communications skills. Her ability to see the full picture at an organization - from the senior leaders to the practitioners on the ground - allows her to advise her trainees on a macro and micro level to ensure full alignment with the organization's goals and values.

Tihanna did a tremendous job building a meaningful relationship with my organization's CEO and helping her dramatically improve her communication skills for both internal and external audiences. She also equipped our regional senior leaders and our communications team with the tools and support to take our media relations work to the next level.

She was a thoughtful partner in all of this work and I highly recommend her to any company or organization looking to strengthen the communications capabilities of their team.

Carrie Fryzol, Director of Finance for Edmonson Electric

My goals when I first decided to meet with Tihanna almost a year ago were simply to improve my public speaking skills. Since then, our coaching sessions have evolved with a broader focus on my spiritual and mental growth.

Through our work together, Tihanna has opened up a deeper understanding of where I need to focus and grow in order to be the best version of myself. Because of her attentiveness and her ability to ask the difficult questions and get to the heart of the matter, she's pushed me to continually improve myself.

Tihanna's coaching style, authenticity and passion for what she does is a gift to those that she works with. She has been instrumental in my professional and personal development.

Jie Davis, Financial Operations Analyst, Illumina

I'm so happy my 1st public speech training was with Tihanna. She made me realize that I'm not bad at public speaking, as a matter of fact, I might be good at it :)

Tihanna taught me alot about being ourselves and letting go of negative interpretations - it was an eye opener for me. I stopped thinking of my audiences as “VP” or “Chief Officers”, and more about looking at them as a person who wants to understand my content and can be helped by it which has helped to reduce my nervousness.

Karen Williams, Creative Art Director, MasterClass

I was completely blown away by all the amazing frameworks and practical steps I took from my sessions with Tihanna. The most surprising and insightful piece of wisdom that came from Tihanna was this statement about public speaking: “it’s not a speaking problem but a thinking problem.” Mind Blown!

At the end of the day, I can gain all the tools and practice non stop, but if I don’t reframe my negative inner thoughts and own my true voice, I won’t be successful in my pursuit to becoming a great speaker.

I have gained so much inspiration, insight, and wisdom from my work with Tihanna and her vast array of experience in communication. I recommend her for anyone looking to own their voice.

Taylor Hesselgrave, Senior UI Engineer, Netflix

I booked several sessions with Tihanna when I was interviewing for a new job. We worked together on how to answer the ubiquitous, "Tell me about yourself" question, and I brought a couple others I thought I might be asked frequently as well.

Tihanna helped me refine my answers down into succinct, focused and personable stories highlighting my potential. She also helped me with subtle body language cues and professional presentation (remote in my case).

I got so much value practicing and preparing for interviewing with Tihanna. In the end, I was asked these questions several times and I was READY! I felt confident about my answers and my delivery, and the way she prepared me kept me from sounding stiff or too rehearsed.

I received positive feedback from all of my interviewers about my composure and "excellent communication skills", and received the best offer of my life so far. Thank you Tihanna!
