Heather Haygood

Founder & Chief Advisory Consultant

I’m part strategist, part human confessional, and I build deep connections with the leaders I work with. Polish has its place, but I’ve learned that lasting leadership has less to do with appearances and everything to do with authenticity. I knew this in my heart, but for years I wrestled with outdated expectations of what a leader “should” look like before I finally learned how to embody it. With over a decade of executive experience, an MBA, and certifications in coaching, change, and emotional intelligence, I bring a sharp sense of discernment: seeing both the path ahead and the obstacles that could derail it. My work is helping leaders cut through the noise, blend heart with strategy, and lead with confidence that sticks.
