Coming Home To Your Power
Core Mission
From playing women’s university ice hockey on one of Canada’s first athletic scholarship programs in the early 1980s, to being the only woman in the country at her level in corporate — the token skirt in a room full of suits — choosing myself over a system that was never built for me, I have gathered wisdom the only way that counts. Through lived experience.
With over 28 years of leadership coaching, I work with senior leaders and C-Suite executives — primarily women — who are highly capable, incredibly successful, and completely done with performing a version of themselves that was never really them so that they can come home to their power.
Sport taught me performance. Music taught me to listen for what’s underneath. And my dog Ryder reminds me daily that showing up fully present is the game changer. I know what it takes to find my way back to myself, every day. And I know how to usher others through that same door.
My greatest advisor and critique is my 90 pound dog — when we walk in the woods together, he helps me decompress and get my thoughts in order.
- "It is about remembering their power, not learning more, but sharing their wisdom and doing and being what already resides within them."
Why are you still so passionate about Leadership Coaching at this stage of your career?
What do you wish someone had said to you when you were the only woman in the room?
You talk about coming home to your power, but what does that actually mean on a Monday morning when everything feels hard?
You were the token skirt in corporate Canada in the 1980s. What did that actually cost you, and what did it teach you that you couldn't have learned any other way?
Most of your clients are introverts. Why do you think introverts make such powerful leaders, and what gets in their way?
- Listeners will walk away remembering their own power — not with more things to learn, but with a deeper knowing of the wisdom and strength that already resides within them. Ruth's conversations invite women to stop performing and start leading as themselves.
