One client came to this work carrying constant tension around a team member who turned small issues into ongoing disruptions. She knew something was off, but hesitated to act. Through our conversations, she gained the clarity to trust what she already knew. What remained was relief, steadier leadership, and the confidence to make decisions without second-guessing herself.

Ways to work together

- An action list after every session
- Weekly check-ins between calls for accountability
- A shared dashboard for your goals, wins, and next steps
For you and your team
Team Empowerment
A guided experience for your whole team, so everyone understands how they work best, what each person brings, and how to lead in the same direction.
- A Take Flight personality and strengths assessment for each person
- A guided team session, in person or virtual
- A private 30 minute conversation with each team member
- A clear picture of what your team needs from you next
Not sure which fits? Many founders start with 1:1 coaching and bring their team in with Team Empowerment when they are ready. Let's talk it through.
The process
How we work together
1We start with you
You and I get clear on your vision, what feels heavy, and what you need from your team.
2I meet your team
In a guided Team Empowerment session, your team learns each other's working styles and names what each person does best.
See the Team Empowerment session
3Each person gets a private conversation
Every team member has 30 minutes with me. It is a safe place to say what is hard to say in a group.
4We bring it together
You leave with a clear picture of what your team needs and practical next steps for how you lead and communicate.
The outcome
What changes
- Clear direction in how you lead and make decisions
- Confident communication with your team and clients
- A team that knows its roles and works well together
- A business that supports your life instead of competing with it
Real founders, real change
Let me tell you a story or two
From tension to trust
From reactive to intentional
Another client came into this work feeling stretched and reactive. Together, we slowed down long enough for her to plan her year with clarity and intention. She left with a clear vision for her priorities, her leadership rhythm, and how she wanted her monthly team meetings to feel.
What I believe
Leadership is someone going first. Not having it all figured out, but taking responsibility and moving forward.
Tara Dunn
Client love
It gives you a really safe, comfortable, supportive space to say the difficult things that maybe you didn't want to say in the group.
It's like she pulls the clarity out of you that you didn't even know was there.
I finally feel like I can breathe again. Tara helped me see where I was stuck and guided me back into my purpose.
I didn't realize how much I needed this, to be seen, to be reminded of what I bring to the table, and to have a clear plan again.

Book a free 15 minute callWhat is leadership coaching for founders and their teams?
Leadership coaching focuses on how you lead, decide, and communicate, and on how your team works together because of it. I work with you as the CEO and with each person on your team, so everyone is leading in the same direction.
What does a leadership coach do with my team?
I meet with your team together in a guided session, and I offer each person a private 30 minute conversation. It gives everyone a safe place to say what is hard to say in a group, and it gives you a clear picture of what your team needs from you.
How is this different from business coaching?
Business coaching focuses on your strategy and offers. Leadership coaching focuses on the people side of your business: how you lead and how your team communicates and works together.
Who is this for?
Female founders who have a team, whether that is two people or twenty, and who want leading that team to feel clear instead of heavy.
Do we have to be in Arizona?
No. I work with founders and teams wherever they are over Zoom, and in person in the Phoenix area.
