Welcome
This journey began with the belief that true power comes from recognizing your unique strengths. Born from a mother-daughter bond (and countless conversations!), this shared passion blossomed into a two-year labor of love. We poured our hearts into creating these inspirational strength cards, meticulously crafting each one to infuse your days with purpose and joy.
But it wasn't just the two of us designing the product. Along the way, we sought the wisdom of clients, colleagues, family, and friends, weaving their expertise and ideas into every detail. The result? A collection of cards we truly believe in – high-quality, beautifully designed, and brimming with the potential to transform your life.
We invite you to join us on this adventure and learn more about us.

Mission
My strengths-based coaching approach is deeply rooted in Positive Psychology principles. Before transitioning into coaching, I spent two decades in advertising and marketing, which informed my understanding of organizational dynamics and effective communication.
Through my Strengths Profile assessment, I've discovered that my strengths are mission-focused, service-driven, and people-oriented. I am passionate about helping clients deepen their self-awareness and become more intentional in how they approach their challenges and opportunities. The result? My clients flourish like a vibrant peacock in full display.
My family and friends affectionately call me a self-help junkie and strengths guru, and I embrace that title proudly!

I am a business coach dedicated to empowering and inspiring executives to maximize their strengths — a powerful path to enhancing leadership and management skills. My clients turn to me for support with a range of challenges, including strategic decision-making, problem-solving, and relationship management. With over 20 years of experience, I have worked with professionals in organizations such as Google, The Red Sox, Pfizer, Netflix, Fidelity, Vanguard, and TJX Companies. Currently, I focus much of my time on serving senior executives and teams within not-for-profit organizations.
Meet Shannon
Nonprofit Executive Director and Strategic Consultant
I am deeply committed to helping mission-driven organizations thrive. With experience spanning early-stage tech companies in high-impact sectors — including education, impact reporting, plastic reduction, upcycling, and financial services — I specialize in building strategy, driving new revenue, and scaling transformative partnerships.
As a consultant, I partner with organizations to develop strategic growth initiatives, expand their reach, and create lasting impact. In my role as Executive Director of Groundswell, I lead the organization’s strategic direction, oversee program development, and cultivate partnerships that expand our reach and deepen our impact.
I thrive on leading teams to leverage their unique strengths, ensuring they feel engaged, fulfilled, and aligned with their purpose. A lifelong learner and builder, I am passionate about continuously challenging myself and others, creating opportunities that help individuals and organizations grow and succeed.
From my Strengths Profile assessment, I have learned that my strengths lie in optimizing time, catalyzing new ideas, and ensuring swift and efficient action — always with the mission and long-term impact in mind. I feel most energized when my community is connected, supported, and driven toward a shared goal.
Outside of work, I love to travel, surf, ski, hike, read, meditate, and explore all things self-improvement.

Meet Molly
Designer, Illustrator, Creative
With a BFA from Syracuse University, my skills include graphic design, branding, packaging, advertising, and art direction. I’m passionate about the ever-changing journey that starts with creative problem solving and leads to conceptual visual solutions. I lean on my detail-oriented and highly-observant visual senses to push beyond the expected and clearly communicate a mission through design.
For Introspective, I created the card design, hand-drawn illustrations, packaging design, and website design. Check out my work here!
