The design of this group program is meant to be spacious for busy schedules, while providing scaffolding for eager learners who desire to dig deeper into the resources.
By request, 1:1 private coaching sessions with Mary will available during the program at an additional cost.
Join an intimate cohort of female leaders in tech, entrepreneurs, people managers & creative visionaries:

This experience is not a fit if you are:
Looking for a passive program or a step by step formula
Interested in surface level motivation without depth
Unwilling to examine how you choose, relate, and lead
Expecting someone else to define your vision or goals
More comfortable staying busy than being intentional

In six weeks, you will have:
A clear plan for the year ahead, grounded in what matters most
Defined core values that guide how you spend your time and energy
One to three meaningful goals already in motion
Clean boundaries around work, relationships, and self care
Systems and practices that support your wellbeing as a leader
Renewed momentum, energy, and confidence in your direction

Your Facilitator
Hi! I'm Mary Shindler. I am a facilitator, experience designer, and leadership coach with over a decade of experience in coaching, talent development, and personal growth fields.
I’m deeply passionate about supporting more women to lead in our world. I led the women's leadership program for Everwise, supporting hundreds of senior-level women across 50 companies. I co-founded Young Women’s Leadership and led transformational workshops in Bali, Indonesia and California. I've also designed and facilitated transformative leadership programs for global companies including LinkedIn, where I reached over 18,000 employees, and built the Learning & Development function from the ground up at a 450-person tech company in Berlin.
I lead experiential trainings for VC funds, not-for-profit organizations, and mission-driven startups in tech that bring people together with vulnerability and authenticity.
I'm a certified professional coach (ICF) through the Academy for Coaching Excellence, and have 750+ hrs of coaching experience over the last 10 years helping dozens of leaders grow.
My approach combines behavioral science with deep self-awareness to help humans step into their full potential and create new possibilities for their impact and the world.
“Mary creates a supportive environment to allow you to dream big and provides tangible skills and steps to turn these big dreams into realities. She will also challenge you, which is necessary during those times when your old self is telling you “You can’t do this” or “I’m too busy to make this change.” This has been one of the best investments I have made in myself and recommend Mary’s coaching to anyone looking to produce changes in their lives.”
