About Me
Hi, I’m Janie G.
I’ve wanted to change the world since I was a kid. I saw all the challenges and wanted to find opportunities to do things differently. To make this world, our world, a better place.
I was called an “idealist” and told to “be realistic” more times than I can count. Maybe you can relate? And still, I pushed forward, just like you. Connecting others to their mission along the way. Creating a movement of humans powerfully changing the world we live in.
But I wasn’t blind to the burden of changemakers or the anxiety and burnout of mission-driven executives and their teams. Changing the world isn’t for the faint of heart or will.
I started working inside the system with executives and their teams, evaluating the infrastructure that made powerful teams successful in their missions and others crumble under the pressure of them. I saw the opportunities inside of each to strengthen the inner infrastructure, create a new baseline for success and fulfillment, generate greater productivity and make an incredible impact along the way.
If you, or your team, value your WHY and want to have a greater impact – let’s connect.
In just 30 minutes, we’ll create a plan to build you (and your team!) into the successful impact-driven changemakers I know you are.

Enough of the buttoned-up me, the *REAL* me:
