Are you an ambitious executive or senior leader ready to elevate your communication and leadership skills? Do you want to lead with more confidence, clarity, and influence in every conversation, presentation, and high-stakes decision?


Despite your experience, you often feel like something’s missing. Whether it's the pressure to perform, the overwhelming demands on your time, or the struggle to be heard in important meetings, you may find yourself feeling frustrated, isolated, and uncertain about your next steps.


Through my Executive Leadership Coaching program, you’ll gain the clarity and confidence you need to take charge of your career and lead with purpose.


So you can lead your team more effectively, influence key decision makers, and create lasting change in your organization.

Hi! I'm Darlene Hawley.


Through my proven executive leadership coaching program, you’ll walk away with a personalized strategy to elevate your leadership, enhance team performance, and create meaningful impact in your organization.


You’ll lead with clarity, inspire your team, and confidently drive results, all while creating the space to prioritize what matters most to you—whether it’s advancing your career, spending more time with your family, or supporting causes you deeply care about.

Do Any of These Sound Familiar?

  • You feel like there’s never enough time in the day to handle everything on your plate.
  • You find it exhausting to manage expectations from above and below, always navigating office politics.
  • You know you’re meant to be a leader, but feel like your voice is getting lost in the noise.
  • You're struggling to command the respect you deserve, despite your best efforts.
  • You want to make a bigger impact, but something is holding you back from speaking up or taking bold action.
  • You’re tired of long hours that don’t reflect the value you bring, and you're ready to earn the recognition (and compensation) that matches your contributions.
  • You’re ready to lead with more confidence, clarity, and ease, but you’re unsure of how to get there.

Imagine how good it will feel to move from struggling to find your voice to being a respected and impactful leader with a clear vision and the communication skills to inspire your team.

I worked with Darlene to role-play a difficult conversation I had been avoiding. She guided me through transforming it into what she calls a 'daring conversation'—one that fosters honesty, connection, and growth. After just one session, I felt equipped with empathy, clarity, and confidence. I finally had that long-overdue talk with a key team member, and it went better than I could have imagined! - Sandy, Executive Leader~ 1:1 Client
