Leadership coaching for mission-driven leaders building inside imperfect systems.
I help leaders clarify vision, align strategy with values, and build sustainable work without sacrificing their wellbeing or community integrity.
Many mission-driven leaders are navigating systems shaped by urgency, scarcity, and extraction while trying to lead with care, integrity, and accountability.
Whether you’re running a nonprofit, launching a social enterprise, or re-imagining your next chapter, the tension between impact and sustainability is real.
My work begins by naming that tension without judgment and supporting you to lead from clarity rather than depletion.
If it feels harder than it should—it’s not just you.
My Coaching Approach
Leadership that honors the body, nervous system, and spirit, not just productivity.
Wellness as Infrastructure
Systems-Aware Strategy
Clear-eyed understanding of nonprofit, philanthropic, and entrepreneurial systems and how to move within them without losing yourself.
Clarifying what you’re building, who it’s for, and what needs to shift for it to be sustainable.
Vision Alignment
Liberatory Sustainability
Funding and revenue strategies that support integrity, community, and long-term viability.
I work with:
*Nonprofit founders and executive leaders
*Social entrepreneurs and cooperative builders
*Early-stage founders with community-centered visions
*Leaders navigating growth, transition, or burnout
If you’re mission-driven, systems-aware, and ready to build with intention, this work is for you.
WHO I SUPPORT
“My work has evolved by working with Shalita. She’s encouraged me to document my ideas by writing it down, taking it out of my spirit and putting it onto paper. It has also brought a network to me that I can bounce ideas off of. ”
