Purpose & Motto
Foster the essential conversations at the intersection of art and strategy, supporting leaders and teams to challenge the status quo, to get out of their own way, and to live their highest potential.
Founded June 2010, FosterEssence provides professional coaching and facilitation. We aim to influence change conversations that uncover unhelpful patterns, spark new perspectives, and turn shared goals into lasting impact. We take a strengths-based and science-backed approach to learning and team development.
Enabling a conscious mindset shift from being reactive, to being receptive, responsive & activating the capacity for change is core to our work. We partner with you in a scoping conversation to identify specific gaps getting in the way of progress and map desired outcomes. We ask strategic questions, shed light on unexamined blind spots, and integrate a learning and team development plan.
Our Motto: Spark the Leader Within. Shift from First Impulse to Best Instinct™

Do Different. Be Better.
Individuals and teams choose to work with a coach to identify the gaps to their biggest progress. An opportunity is present, and it’s time to take a leap. A transition is happening, requiring clarity on goals, roles and processes.
People engage in coaching when they simply want to think, be, and do different and better. Together, we identify the struggles that matter; unfolding conflict several layers below the surface, creating a courageous space to learn, grow and progress together.
