Most "Leadership Coaching" Either Doesn't Work
Or Wants You To Ignore Your Heart-driven Purpose
But In Order To Deliver Results That Transform Lives And Careers (Without Asking You To Sacrifice Your Ambition Or Your Role)...
a leadership coaching program must be based on
1
Real-world experience on the front lines of corporate
2
Proven strategies to optimize human performance
3
A simple, repeatable process
4
World-class support
5
And ... most of all ... must love heart-driven leaders.
Unfortunately, most coaching for leaders falls into two categories: generic "success" coaching that wants you to sleep even less and do more, or career-transition coaching that wants you to throw in the towel on being a heart-driven leader.
But you're smart enough to know that it's not about working harder or changing careers. You need someone who has been through it to guide you step-by-step along the path to the life you're dreaming of.
And you realize that having a "coach" just tell you to "hustle more" or making you feel guilty about feeling overwhelmed is nothing more than paying someone to bully you.
The truth is, most coaches don't care. And the ones that do? They don't have the heart-driven chops of their own or the strategy that really works and creates lasting results. Their programs are either built around fleeing from feelings or keeping you so busy that you don't realize that what they're teaching isn't really working.
Angie Hooper Coaching is Different
We love heart-driven leaders. And we know that being a heart-driven leader can be tough... and it also can be the adventure of a lifetime. That's why we developed a cutting-edge strategy that shows professionals how to honor their humanity, keep their ambition, and get to the roots of their stress and burnout. We have world-class support and coaching unlike anything else for leaders. And we've simplified it all so you can start getting results right away because we know you don't have time to waste.
That's why we're sought after to share our innovative strategies with the next generation of leaders. And why we work with individual leaders who need relief from stress and want to burnout-proof their careers, and with companies, organizations, and firms to help them develop and retain top performers.
3 Reasons NOT to Work With Us
We need to be upfront about something.
Unlike other programs out there, we're not for everyone. So here are three reasons you should NOT work with us.
1
Don't work with us if you've already decided to give up on a heart-driven career.
Do our clients fall in love with leadership and go on to have the professional adventure of a lifetime? Sure. But they also made the decision to be hopeful, curious, and optimistic about their heart-driven leadership purpose. And they made a personal commitment not to give up.
Just because we've created a simple process that works doesn't mean the road will be easy. Our clients show up 100% committed to following the process so that they can create a career and a life that they love.
2
Don't work with us if you're not 100% committed to professional ethics.
Getting the right support to relieve stress and burnout isn't a luxury. It is part of your professional skillset. Feeling stressed and overwhelmed to the point that you're no longer thinking clearly, or using coping mechanisms that affect your ability to give competent advice, cuts to the heart of professional ethics.
For example: more than 60% of practicing lawyers report struggling with anxiety, and over 45% report struggling with depression. One in five exhibits problematic drinking and/or substance abuse behaviors.* It's heartbreaking, but some professionals wait too long to get our help. They hide their struggle until they end up damaging their careers or with a a substance use problem that requires medical intervention.
If you are a lawyer and your situation has deteriorated to the point you need medical or mental health intervention, the ABA directory of Lawyer Assistance Programs is available at:

Don't work with us if you're not 100% committed to your clients.
One of the things we love most about leaders is their passion for doing the right thing and their team's and clients' success. Doing projects that create win-win business deals. Their willingness to hold wrong-doers accountable. When they speak up as the voice of integrity to keep their clients from going down a bad path.
So let's talk about who IS a fit for our coaching program ...
Who We Are For
If you are a professional who is great at what you do, if you love the positive impact on the world that's possible with a leadership role, if you're committed to your dream of having a successful career and a thriving personal life, we can help you get there.
You must show up coachable. You are the expert in your professional area, but we are the experts in this. We put our focus on creating exceptional leaders, not arguing over strategy.
You must be decisive. The profession moves way too fast for you to get stuck in analysis paralysis.
And you must be resourceful. There is always a way forward for the truly committed.
If you're ready to get relief from stress so that you can become an exceptional leader alongside a thriving personal life, then click below to watch our latest masterclass. In it, I share the step-by-step strategies we use to help our clients to eliminate the root causes of their stress and burnout-proof their careers ... and learn how to thrive THROUGH leadership (and not IN SPITE of it).
You're not alone in feeling frustrated with a professional culture of "suck it up, buttercup" that is failing you and everyone you care about.
