I didn't plan to end up here. I planned to be an attorney — and I was. But leadership kept pulling me somewhere harder.
 

I became one of Europe's youngest female City Managers. I led public systems under political scrutiny where every decision was visible and the margin for error was thin. I navigated loyalty and power at the same time. I spoke when there was no script.
 

Then I kept going. Corporate turnaround work. Interim CEO. Interim COO. Stepping into organizations where something had already broken at the top — boards fracturing, founders exiting, leadership teams that had stopped trusting each other. I rebuilt leadership architecture. I stabilized systems in crisis. I did it across sectors, across cultures, in rooms where no one had a playbook.
 

And then I did the thing I help my founder clients do now. I left.
 

I left a life I loved in Sweden for one I was still trying to build in the United States. I sat on the patio months in, with my two dogs, second-guessing every step. I built three companies across three continents. I made the bet my founder clients are making — and I made it more than once.

That's not a credential. That's why this work exists.
 

I know what it feels like when the ground shifts under you. When the role changes and the old instincts don't land the same way. When you have to find your footing in a new room — and figure out who you are inside it — without anyone telling you how. When you've left something that worked for something you're still building, and you wonder if you made the right call.

Today I work with high-achieving women — leaders and founders — at the inflection points where competence stops being enough. Managing Directors, General Counsels, COOs, Chiefs of Staff. Founders running companies they built. Different surface. Same pattern. They don't come to me because things are falling apart. They come because their influence hasn't caught up to the role they're now in — and they want that gap closed.

The work is private, direct, and grounded in real situations as they happen. We look at how you show up, what you're signaling without realizing it, and how decisions are forming around you. As that shifts — conversations move. Authority settles.
