Introducing TLC: A New Era in Corporate Leadership Development

Today, we are thrilled to announce the launch of a new approach to corporate leadership coaching: Trust & Leadership Coaching (TLC).

TLC engages leaders at each stage of their journey with its team of certified coaches and master facilitators. Its objectives aren’t limited to helping clients experience success in their careers—TLC coaches help corporate leaders master the business of living a fulfilling and balanced life.

Trust & Leadership Coaching is the product of a decade of coaching success and the evolution of Lindsay E. Preston Coaching - a women’s leadership and life coaching entity created by Coach Lindsay E. Preston, PCC, which featured its premier “Awakened Woman” coaching program, as well as other 1-on-1 and group coaching offerings – all designed and led by Lindsay herself.

A Lindsay E. Preston Coaching workshop held in San Antonio, Texas in 2019.

During more than a decade of deep client work, Lindsay refined her approach to serving driven women who wanted more from their lives than success – they were looking for deep fulfillment. “Awakened Woman” helped hundreds of women worldwide with its neuroscience-based approach. 92% of Lindsay’s clients over those 10+ years shared they achieved their desired goals and more by working with her, and she continuously held a renewal rate with clients of approximately 85%. 

Though Lindsay achieved success and personal fulfillment by leading these coaching programs, she noted a glaring commonality in why many of her clients were compelled to work with her - they each felt immense dissatisfaction and burnout from their corporate positions.

In many cases, corporate leaders had experienced varying degrees of trauma during their careers that negatively impacted their work and their well-being (a recent and universal example is the continuing impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic). To recover from these intense personal and professional experiences, employees required levels of support in their work lives that they weren’t finding access to, leaving them to find the support on their own. 

Time and again, Lindsay saw clients with determination, drive, and privilege leaving their corporate roles behind due to this lack of support and beginning their own businesses. 

While these leaders were empowering themselves to fully utilize their talents as entrepreneurs, the exodus of top talent from the corporate applicant pool has continued to leave a huge number of organizations with a notable challenge: Managing the increasing need to find, grow, and develop leaders who are impactful, engaged, and high-performing, and to do so without generating trauma or burning them out. 

The realization of how widespread this need has become fueled the concept behind Trust & Leadership Coaching—a company that could use proven, neuroscience-backed methodology in business and life coaching and a team of certified, highly-trained coaches to support the issue at the heart of the problem being faced by so many corporations: leadership development. 

At TLC, our mission is to provide results-focused leadership development and professional coaching services in partnership with individuals, teams, and organizations committed to our mission of helping trusted leaders thrive as they lead the way. 

That development and support begins up to three years before an individual enters their first leadership position inside our “emerging leaders” programs. It continues with “established leaders” who have already been assigned a leadership position and wraps up with those entering mastery as " executives” or “entrepreneurs.” 

Our approach is rooted in the belief that leadership is not just about managing others. True leadership demands that we develop the ability to inspire and empower teams by cultivating our own deep knowing, managing our well-being, and creating opportunities for true connection. This allows employees to thrive within their roles in the organization rather than leaving it.

As we make Trust and Leadership Coaching available to corporations and driven leaders worldwide, we want to reassure you of our continued, unwavering commitment to positively impacting our clients' professional and personal lives.

We are excited to continue aspects of the deep coaching work we began to develop over a decade ago as we now focus primarily on leaders navigating their paths with confidence, clarity, and a renewed sense of purpose.

We are deeply grateful for your support and excited to have you on our journey. Together, we will shape a future where trusted leaders thrive and organizations flourish.
