Executive Coaching for High Achieving Women 

It’s time to redefine success, on your terms and lead from alignment, not burnout.

For women who are ready to lead with clarity, authority, and peace, without abandoning themselves in the process. Because true leadership isn’t just about performance. It’s about presence. And you can have both.

You’re a woman in leadership, building faith-aligned success, but beneath the titles and accomplishments, something still feels unsettled

You’ve checked the boxes, hit the goals, earned your seat at the table, and yet, you’re constantly questioning your voice in rooms you fought twice as hard to enter.


You’re praised for being composed and high-capacity, but the emotional cost is real: the quiet resentment, the disconnection, the fatigue that no one sees. You want more ease. More peace. More clarity. But you’re not sure how to get there without compromising your excellence, or your soul.

Be honest, do you ever catch yourself:

  • Coaching your team through burnout while silently drowning in your own?

  • Carrying the emotional weight of your workplace, your family, and your friendships—and wondering when it gets to be your turn to fall apart?

  • Saying you’re setting boundaries but secretly fearing the fallout if you actually enforce them?

  • Leading with excellence on the outside while quietly unraveling on the inside,and still showing up like it’s fine?

What if you could go from:

Constantly performing strength → to feeling safe enough to lead the room with your full humanity?

Overthinking every boundary, every decision, every “no” with a team member → to moving with clarity, confidence, and ease at work?

Doing everything right and still feeling like you’re not the perfect leader → to redefining success on your own terms,and actually feeling aligned with it?

Being the strong one for the team → to becoming deeply rooted in a version of leadership that doesn’t cost you your peace?

Silencing your truth to stay safe or strategic → to trusting your voice and standing in it fully, without apology?

That’s exactly what Narrative Shift Coaching is designed to do:

This will help you break free from the internalized rules that keep you over-functioning and second-guessing, so you can lead with clarity, self-trust, and emotional integrity—without burning out or shrinking yourself to survive.


This work isn’t about managing your calendar, fixing your mindset, or adding another performance strategy. 


It’s about creating space to reconnect with yourself, your voice, your values, your vision—and finally lead from a place that feels sustainable, grounded, and fully aligned.


Together, we disrupt the narratives that keep you overextending, overthinking, and under-supported—and build a new story where you get to lead with clarity and confidence, on your terms.

Here’s how it unfolds:

01

Get Rooted


Identify what’s no longer working—internally and externally—and uncover the narratives shaping how you lead and see yourself.

02

Reclaim Your Voice & Values


Challenge outdated scripts and replace them with patterns rooted in self-trust, boundaries, and intentional leadership.

03

Redefine your life from the inside out


As clarity  unfolds, we’ll build a more honest relationship with yourself and your emotional world. You’ll walk away with tools to support your growth, rhythms that restore you, and a renewed sense of leadership and emotional alignment.

Hi, I’m Dr. Jacquelyn Johnson- Certified Coach

And your thought partner in breaking free from the leadership performance trap.


With over a decade of experience guiding high-achieving women through deep emotional work, I specialize in helping driven professionals untangle the internalized narratives that equate worth with achievement and presence with perfection.


I’ve worked with women navigating corporate pressures, ministry demands, caregiving responsibilities, and the quiet ache of feeling unseen—even in rooms they’ve worked twice as hard to enter. And I’ve helped them lead differently—rooted in self-trust, emotional alignment, and internal authority.


I created Narrative Shift Leadership Coaching because I believe we don’t just need more women in leadership, we need more women who feel whole when they get there.


This isn’t about fixing you. It’s about freeing you from the internal scripts that no longer serve you, and helping you return to the version of you that’s been buried underneath the pressure to prove, perform, and endure.


This isn’t just coaching. It’s a reclamation. And I’d be honored to walk with you.

If you’ve been waiting for a sign to lead differently, this is it. 

There’s never a perfect time to pause and prioritize yourself. But there is a cost to waiting—your clarity, your peace, your presence. Let’s change that today.

Frequently asked questions

  • What is executive coaching?

    Executive coaching is a collaborative, action-oriented space where we focus on how you show up as a leader—at work, at home, and within yourself.


    This isn’t about performance tweaks or productivity hacks.


    It’s about helping high-achieving women of color unlearn the internal narratives that lead to over-functioning, perfectionism, and burnout—and start leading from alignment, self-trust, and clarity.


    Together, we’ll challenge the beliefs that tell you you have to do it all, carry it all, or prove your worth to be valuable.

    This is leadership rooted in wholeness—not sacrifice.

  • What’s the difference between life coaching and executive coaching?

    Life coaching supports your personal growth, and self-awareness.   Executive coaching goes deeper into how that growth shows up in high-stakes environments—where power, pressure, identity, and responsibility collide.


    My executive coaching is designed specifically for women of color in leadership—women navigating complex roles, big expectations, and the unspoken weight of “being the only one.”


    We focus on the deeper work.

    • Setting boundaries without guilt
    • Leading with emotional clarity, not performance
    •  Managing burnout and internalized pressure
    • Navigating visibility, imposterism, and identity with courage and integrity

     If you’re tired of leading with a mask on, this is your space to reconnect your purpose with your power —and lead without losing yourself in the process.

  • What should I consider before hiring an executive coach?

    Before you hire a coach, ask yourself a few things:


    • Do they understand what it’s like to lead while being underestimated—or invisible
    • Do they make space for all of who you are — your brilliance, your emotions,   your faith, and your fatigue?
    • Do they know how to hold both truth and tenderness in the way they challenge you?
    • Do you feel safe enough to take off the mask —and be led while still being seen?

    You don’t just need strategy.


    You need a space where you don’t have to perform strength to be respected.


    You deserve a coach who sees you not just as a title or a résumé– but as a whole woman.

     That’s the kind of space I hold.


  • How does virtual coaching work?

    All sessions are held virtually via a secure, private video platform. You’ll receive a link before each session—just click and join from wherever you are. Each session is 50 minutes long. Between sessions, you’ll have access to optional support via email for quick check-ins, questions, or reflections.

  • How is coaching different from therapy?

     Therapy focuses on healing past wounds, managing emotional distress, and treating mental health conditions. Coaching, on the other hand, is designed for women who are not in crisis—but are ready to grow. It’s future-focused, action-oriented, and centered around helping you lead and live from alignment.


    Although I’m a licensed psychologist, I do not provide therapy within this coaching container. If we discover that therapy would better support your needs—or complement the coaching work—we’ll explore those options together.

  • What technology do I need?

    You’ll need a reliable internet connection and a device with a camera and microphone—like a computer, tablet, or smartphone. Headphones are helpful for privacy but not required.

  • Can I use insurance to pay for coaching?

    Coaching is not a medical or clinical service and is not covered by insurance. Unlike therapy, it doesn’t involve diagnosis, treatment, or clinical documentation. Coaching is an investment in your personal and professional evolution—offering the flexibility and privacy that insurance-based models can't.

  • What happens if I need to cancel or reschedule?

    I ask for at least 24 hours’ notice to cancel or reschedule a session. Sessions canceled within 24 hours will be forfeited, except in emergencies.


    This coaching container is built on mutual respect, care, and clear boundaries—because how we honor time here becomes practice for how you honor it everywhere else in your life.

Let’s rewrite the way you lead, from the inside out

Let’s unlearn the rules that are no longer serving you—and rebuild a way of leading that finally includes you.


Executive presence is nothing without personal alignment.
Let’s get you both.
