If you’re navigating new terrain — personal or professional — and seeking clarity, courage, and boundaries that create space for your next truest chapter, you’re in the right place.
This work is personal to me, because I’ve lived it.
Amy Meredith is a nonprofit founder and award-winning CEO and visionary leader who brings lived leadership experience and sound judgment to conversations about growth, complexity, and change.
Who I Am
I am an author, speaker, and leadership consultant who has spent years leading organizations, navigating complexity, and holding space for others—often while quietly learning what it costs women to lead without boundaries, in their homes and their workplaces.
Like many women, I built a life rooted in purpose and responsibility. I showed up, delivered results, and carried more than my share. And for a long time, I believed that was simply the price of leadership.
What I came to understand—through loss, transition, and rebuilding—is that clarity doesn’t come from doing more. It comes from discernment. Courage isn’t about pushing harder. It’s about choosing yourself. And leadership without boundaries forces us to give too much of ourselves.
That realization reshaped how I live, write, and lead.
My Work
My work centers on clarity, courage, and the boundaries required to lead without confidence and integrity—staying true to yourself as the stakes grow and expectations expand.
I work with founders and experienced leaders carrying significant responsibility—across nonprofit, corporate, and public-sector contexts—who are building, scaling, or stewarding organizations through growth, complexity, and periods of change.
I bring a leadership perspective shaped by founding, scaling, and leading an organization through rapid growth, alongside the discernment that comes from holding responsibility over time. My work creates space to think clearly, weigh decisions with care, and lead in ways that are values-aligned, sustainable, and grounded in sound judgment.
This work is strategic, and grounded in real leadership experience—It’s steady, thoughtful support for leaders doing consequential work.
Beyond the Work
Beyond my professional work, I am grounded by practices that return me to clarity and perspective—time in nature, movement, reflection, and creative expression. These are not escapes from leadership, but practices that strengthen it.
They remind me to listen carefully, move with intention, and stay connected to what matters most—especially when the pace accelerates or expectations rise. This grounding informs how I show up with others and how I make decisions when the stakes are real.
What Guides Me
I believe leadership is not only about strategy or outcomes, but about intention and discernment—knowing when to act, when to pause, and how to remain aligned with your values as responsibilities grow.
Over time, I’ve come to see leadership, creativity, and inner life not as separate pursuits, but as interconnected expressions of the same work: staying present, accountable, and true to oneself while contributing meaningfully in the world.
Today
Today, my work reflects both experience and evolution.
I’m drawing from years of responsibility and growth while staying open to creativity, reflection, and an intentional inner life. This work is a bridge between what I’ve built and what’s emerging—held with care, honesty, and self-trust.
I believe that leadership doesn’t require abandoning yourself. It requires staying.
Work with Amy
I work with founders and experienced leaders who want space to think clearly about what comes next.
Engagements are advisory in nature—grounded in lived leadership experience and shaped by discernment and intention, rather than urgency. This work is designed for moments when decisions matter, identities are shifting, and the usual answers no longer feel sufficient.
I’m not the right partner for leaders looking for quick fixes or surface-level strategy. I am well suited for those who value thoughtful challenge, honest reflection, and steady presence as they navigate growth, change, or transition.
If this resonates, this work may be a good fit.
