Executive Coaching
Effective coaching is a challenging, rewarding, and intimate experience. We work with leaders to get clarity on what’s most important, and to push boundaries. To achieve more than they ever thought possible. We help them articulate their big dreams and define the path to get there. We blast through roadblocks and misconceptions that hold leaders back and create a platform to shine.

Women’s Leadership Retreats
It’s different at the top for women. We know that – we’ve been there. We coach women across the globe who are working to make a difference. Finding a trusted community and a safe place to explore, create and develop can be a challenge. In our signature five-day leadership retreat, we create space for inspiration, ideas and brilliance that can only flourish when leaders step away from the normal routine.

Mastermind Group Coaching
"Find a group of people who challenge and inspire you, spend a lot of time with them, and it will change your life." In our Masterminds, we work with a small group of leaders to explore aspirations and overcome obstacles. This cohort experience is based on the Hero’s Journey, which is both personal and universal; timeless and timely. Each carefully curated Mastermind group meets weekly for this six-week intensive.

HI, WE’RE KATHLEEN + LISA!
Here’s the deal: we don't want people to feel alone.
When we started coaching, we were consistently asked to work with people who were already successful. People at the top of their game, with satisfying careers and a track record of success. What we found was that companies didn't know how to serve and support these leaders in a meaningful way...and most of these people couldn't clearly articulate the path forward.
When we started Nova Leadership in 2015, we were clear: we wanted to empower leaders. To help them discover the brilliance within. And to shine. And so, together, we made a pivot.
We realized, looking at our own careers, that it was when we were "at the top of our game" that we most needed a like-minded community.
We wanted someone with whom we could share ideas and inspiration: a trusted ally, a partner who would push us forward - and have our back. We see this same desire every day in the high performing leaders we coach.
The definition of Nova is “the sudden brightening of a previously inconspicuous star,” and that’s our work: helping people move out of the shadows and into brightness.
