I don’t know who walked into that meeting room that day, but a woman on a mission walked out. Been thinking a lot about what I want to achieve and where I’m going to go…… You awakened something in me, ignited a spark and now I’m constantly thinking about what’s ahead and what I will do to keep moving forward.

Testimonials

Sonia McDonald

After working in the leadership and human resource space for more than 30 years, it is evident that traditional leadership training has overlooked the women’s perspective and, sadly, lost the opportunity to tap into women’s extraordinary leadership power.

That’s why I have developed a virtual program for women in leadership roles or aspiring to be in leadership roles, to empower and encourage them to step up, stand up and lead in their personal and professional lives.

"Sonia is 100% focused on her client, genuinely and authentically helping them to achieve outstanding results and perform at their best."
"Sonia is an inspirational and dynamic leadership coach. She energizes and motivates people to be bold, to focus on their personal strengths, and ultimately to forge their own authentic leadership journey.
"After working with Sonia, I am more confident, knowledgeable and passionate about everything I do. I now look forward to what my future will bring."
