Barbara Jordan

You’ve built your career. You’ve earned the title. You’ve learned how to perform, make decisions, solve problems, and lead others. But what got you here... may not be what keeps you there and takes you to your next level. The next level of leadership isn’t always about learning another strategy or adding another skill. Sometimes, it’s about shifting what’s happening within you—the way you think, the way you respond under pressure, what you’ve carried, and the habits & patterns that influence how you lead.

I work with leaders to help them lead with calm, confident composure. Leading doesn’t have to be so hard. Call or email me today. I meet you where you're at and start by listening closely, nonjudgmentally to your story. This helps us build trust & rapport. My approach leans more toward coaching to support you holistically—emotionally, mentally, and professionally. I help you understand what holds you back & keeps you overwhelmed or stuck. I offer practical tools you can use in your daily life.

You get the benefit of my 25 years of experience working with high‐potential, high-achieving professionals & leaders navigating stress, burnout, conflict with team members or the pressure to “hold everything together".

We explore what’s happening, without judgment. At the same time, you will get clear guidance, insight, and strategies that help you build emotional resilience, strengthen communication, set boundaries, and make meaningful changes.

I draw from what research says works best and years of experience in healthcare leadership, leadership coaching, and organizational psychology/development. Whether we’re addressing anxiety, depression, burnout, perfectionism, people‐pleasing, or major transitions, I can help you find ways in which you hold can bridge the gap between where you are now and where you want to be.

Are you carrying a lot, moving fast, and often helping everyone but yourself?

My approach to leadership coaching includes deep, inner, mind-body work to support high-potential leaders & high‐performing professionals who are navigating intense pressure, constant responsibility & the expectation to always “have it together.” I help you understand your internal world—the stress response, thoughts, beliefs, mindsets, & attitudes—keeping you overwhelmed or stuck. I also offer practical tools you can use immediately. You will benefit from my warm yet direct & supportive but challenging approach. I help you strengthen your communication skills, boundary-setting, stress management skills, and leadership capabilities. This enables you to lead more confidently, with stronger emotional intelligence, resilience, and calm composure.

Because of my background in leadership and organizational development, I understand what it takes to manage teams, navigate workplace dynamics & carry the emotional weight/responsibility of leadership. Additional hypnotherapy training, research AND experience allows me to rewire your thinking at a subconscious level, which enables you to let go of self-defeating mindsets and create sustainable change.

Whether you’re dealing with burnout, anxiety, perfectionism, people‐pleasing, relationship challenges, or the pressure to meet everyone’s expectations, we will work on changing FOR GOOD so you can move forward, feel like yourself & find peak performance again.

High‐performing professionals & leaders often spend so much time supporting others, managing crises & keeping everything moving that they rarely have a moment to focus on themselves. But, our first conversation gives you that room to breathe, reflect & speak honestly about what’s been weighing on you—without needing to be “on,” polished, or pressured to solve problems.

We’ll start by exploring what brought you here and what you’re hoping to change. Many leaders come in feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or stuck in mind sets that no longer serve them—whether that’s people‐pleasing, perfectionism, playing the "Hero" to the point of emotional exhaustion, or pressure to maintain complete composure. I’ll guide the conversation with curiosity and respect, helping you understand what’s happening beneath the surface.

Because I lean more toward coaching, you’ll experience both insight and practical strategy. Because I have clinical skills/training, we’ll look deeper than most coaches--at the internal factors—stress responses, beliefs, attitudes, assumptions, conclusions—as well as the external realities of your role, workload, workplace relationships, and environment.

I’ll share observations, ask forward-moving questions & help you identify what you need right now to get to the next level. You will receive "aha" (insight) reminders as well as assignments and plans to ensure that you have a clearer sense of your goals & the steps to take to meet them!
