Stop Choosing Between Career Success and Family Fulfillment
Lead Yourself First — Thrive Everywhere
Hi, I’m Tania — Leadership Coach, Director in the MA state government, Mentor Co-Chair, and someone who survived civil war before becoming a leader of leaders.
For over 20 years, I’ve helped women rise from self-doubt, guilt, and survival mode into confident, self-led leaders at work and at home.
If you’re a career-driven mom who feels successful on the outside but stretched thin on the inside…
You’re in the right place.
👉 You don’t have to choose between being a great leader and a great mom.
👉 You don’t need more degrees to feel “enough.”
👉 You don’t need to sacrifice your joy for your success.
When you master self-leadership, everything changes.
My
Journey
From War Survivor to Self-Leadership Revolutionary
The Breaking Point
I was born in Angola during civil war. At 12, everything collapsed — schools closed, morgues stayed open, and I found myself wandering cemeteries, trying to make sense of life by staring at its absence.
I lost my home, my routine, and the permission to dream.
The Struggle Continues
When I came to the U.S., I carried opportunity… and shame.
My smile was broken for 20 years after losing a front tooth at 7.
I hid my smile, my voice, and my potential.
I learned English, put myself through school, graduated, built a career — and still doubted my worth. I lived 11 years in an emotionally draining relationship because I didn’t yet know how to lead myself.
The Breakthrough
Everything changed when I realized:
You cannot effectively lead anyone else until you learn to lead yourself first.
My broken smile became my credential, not my prison.
My war story became my superpower, not my shame.
The Transformation
Today, I’m a Director in my agency, a sought-after mentor, a leadership coach, and a woman who thrives without sacrificing her family, joy, or identity.
And now — I teach women the same transformation through the RISE Self-Leadership Framework.
What Makes My
Approach
Different?
I’ve Been Exactly Where You Are:
I’ve lived the guilt, exhaustion, and “I should be further by now” feeling.
I’ve been the successful woman who still doubted herself.
I’ve been the mom who tried to pour from an empty cup.
I’ve been the leader who couldn’t lead herself.
I know the journey because I’ve walked it.
A Battle-Tested Framework:
RISE is not theory — it comes from 20 years of leading diverse teams, mentoring leaders, coaching women, and living through complex personal challenges.
Real-World Strategies for Real Women:
You’re not getting vague ideas.
You’re getting tools that work in the messy reality of a working woman’s life: meetings, lunchboxes, deadlines, relationships, and everything in between.
