I have a PhD…and for the past ten years, I’ve also been the temple laundress. This typically makes people pause...
Yes, I manage clothing and laundry at the Phoenix Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. But that title tells only a small part of the story.
Throughout my career, I've navigated complex challenges, coached leaders, facilitated leadership seminars, taught new coaches, resolved conflict, built high-performing teams, and made plenty of mistakes along the way.
Those experiences have taught me that leadership isn't about having all the answers. It's about creating an environment where people can do their very best work.
That's why I coach. And I've been doing it for 20 years.
Technology is transforming the workplace, but human connection cannot be digitized.
AI can process information. It can't build genuine trust, navigate courageous conversations, or inspire people.
The future of leadership isn't less human. It's more intentionally human.
My goal is simple: to help you become a leader who is human, innovative, courageous, inspiring, and unmistakably authentic. A leader others want to follow.
Organizations become extraordinary because of their people. And people are led by people.

Irene has been an absolutely perfect coach for me. She has fulfilled her responsibilities with exactness and honor. She helped me increase my abilities and clarity of thought and judgment as she coached me through accomplishing all the goals I set out to do. So thankful to have the blessing of Irene in my life. She's not a therapist or counselor. She is a coach who helps you think through your choices and come to your own decisions.

Irene, I did not get time at the end of the training to let you know how much I appreciate who you BE and thank you for all you have done the last 2 years. Through the years it has been a gift to watch you evolve into the “awesomator” that you have become. The song “Forever Young” reminds me of you. You have a gift and a beautiful heart that you share so much and ROCK SOLID common sense to guide you.
We will always be your raving FANS!!!

Working with Irene has been truly transformative. Irene helped me build genuine confidence in my leadership style while sharpening my ability to lead a team with clarity, empathy, and purpose. Through thoughtful questions, practical tools, and honest feedback, I gained a deeper understanding of my strengths and how to show up more effectively as a leader. I now communicate with more confidence, set clearer expectations, and approach challenges with a clearer vision. This coaching experience not only strengthened my leadership skills but also positively impacted my team’s engagement and results. I highly recommend Irene to anyone looking to grow as a leader and make a meaningful impact.
Truly grateful!
