Lori Bruhns LLC

You'll stop performing and start leading. I help you build clarity, strategic focus, and the self-awareness to know when to move forward and when to recalibrate. My approach is education over execution, so you leave with systems and self-trust that outlast our work together — not just answers for today's problem.

Clients leave with clarity, tools, and momentum - one landed two job interviews during our four weeks together, another walked into a single session feeling uncertain and left feeling confident, seen, and validated. You get tangible next steps you can act on immediately, along with a mindset shift that makes you more productive and self-assured going forward. The growth tends to stick - most clients come back for more.

Leaders don't need to be fixed — they need to be unleashed. I draw on a rare dual perspective as a former classroom educator turned ICF-credentialed executive coach, designing every engagement around education over execution. My methodology blends strategic thinking with genuine human connection, helping clients access their own inner authority instead of borrowing someone else's leadership style. I don't believe in cookie-cutter solutions or asking clients to fit an existing mold.

I bring over 25 years of experience and the ICF Coach (PCC) credential, paired with genuine warmth, positive energy, and kind humor that makes coaching feel like breakthrough rather than work. I move easily between one-on-one depth and group facilitation for audiences of over 500. I'm bilingual (English/Spanish), and my own path from teacher to CEO — means I understand reinvention from the inside.

I work with association executives, professionals navigating major career transitions, emerging leaders finding their authentic voice, senior executives who need a confidential strategic partner, and HR/training buyers seeking measurable leadership development. My clients span healthcare, higher education, associations, technology, and more. What connects them: they're not looking to be saved — they're ready to expand the impact they're already creating.

I have 25 plus years in coaching, training, and professional development and hold the ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC) credential.I hold a BA in Spanish & Secondary Education from Rider University and can deliver bilingual (English/Spanish) coaching.
