Lead with Confidence, Courage, and Influence Without Missing Out on Life's Joys!
JOIN THE 2025 WAITLIST!Does this sound familiar?
"My management entrusted me with this huge opportunity, and I don’t want to fail them!"
"I love my job, but I work endless hours, and my health and well-being begin to suffer."
"I find it difficult to keep my poise and calm in high-pressure situations."
"I often find it difficult to speak up for fear I might say something silly and lose my credibility or become unpopular."
"I am a doer and hard worker. But I often lack the confidence to follow my own path, and instead let others influence my actions and ambitions."
"Am I the right person for this job?" is a question that often pops up in my mind. I'm just not sure I am the leader I always wanted to be.
"I think I am pretty good at what I do, and yet some colleagues don’t seem to take me seriously, making me feel unheard and undervalued."
"My thoughts often drag me down. I ruminate over past situations, getting stuck in self-criticism. I wish I felt more at peace!"
"I tend to feel lonely and isolated. I wish I had someone at my level to talk to and share experiences with."
"I fear that as a woman, I don’t have the same opportunities and cannot be fully authentic. I often play tough to fit in amongst my male colleagues."
If you can relate, you’re not alone!
This is what hundreds of professional women share with me privately when no one else can hear…
They usually love their work, but they struggle to make the impact they desire. And they wonder whether their career ambitions are compatible with a life that is truly worth living.
What if you could step into your power and have the impact (and the life) that you crave?
Trust me when I say—yes, you can! You can get back in the driver’s seat of your life. You can get the promotion and the salary that you want! You can follow a career path that's true to who you are. And yes, you can shine as a leader in your own unique way!
Perhaps you know this too, but you don't know how to get there.
And that's what might have led you to read this page…
I'm thrilled that you're here!
Hi! I am Alena, founder of SHELeads, TEDx speaker, coach, mentor, and guide for women executives (and also a globetrotter, adventurer, explorer of the human psyche, and in love with life)!
I've worked with women from 18 different countries, spanning industries like Pharma, IT, Finance, Manufacturing, Gas & Oil, and more.
It's my mission to change the game for women leaders (both current and future). It's not just about being great at your job. I want you to feel great about yourself and the life you create for yourself—at work and at home.

I WORKED WITH


My story
After 15+ years in the corporate world, in positions of marketing, sales, and communication, experiencing work and life across 5 different countries on 2 continents, I followed my passion and started my own business. It was a long path, filled with successes and failures, that eventually led me to create SHELeads in 2018.
It all started as a tiny project, born out of my own failings as a professional, a leader, and... as a woman!
Back then, I was immersed in the men's world. Most of my friends were male, and literally all my clients—senior company execs with whom I worked on their public speaking, communication, and influencing skills—were men! I enjoyed their company and resonated with the 'masculine' vibe: direct, logical, driven, competitive...
But then an existential crisis hit.
I was stressed and overworked, and my personal life crumbled to pieces.
I hit rock bottom.
I had to face the very ugly truth about who I had become over the years of dedicating my life almost exclusively to the pursuit of professional goals.
I learned how to DRIVE, but I forgot how to FLOW.
My life became lopsided. I lived in my HEAD—thinking, planning, making decisions, directing people and projects.
I was so busy DOING that I forgot about BEING—experiencing joy, love, and deep connections.
I lost touch with my inner senses, my inner sources of power, my creativity.
My crisis propelled me on a long journey of self-discovery, further studies, and a multitude of lived experiences that helped convert all that knowledge into a real transformation of the broken parts of me.
Here’s what I came to believe:
- Many of us women who actively pursue a career in management are well in tune with our masculine side. We are go-getters, driven, independent, and action-focused. These are great qualities because they help us get stuff done and achieve more at work. Yet, that's only one part of our story.
- There are other parts of us where the source of our inner flame resides, including our receptive and intuitive feminine self. Reclaiming and balancing all parts can greatly enrich our lives and the lives of the people around us.
- When I realized that so many women faced the challenges I knew so well, I felt a great desire to share what I’d learned, so I opened my first ‘experimental’ group. The message resonated…
And here we are, 6 years later, SHELeads is impacting the lives of women all over the world!
In my work with clients,
⟶ I combine my corporate experience and professional expertise with my training in Emotional Intelligence
⟶ Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP)
⟶ Coaching
⟶ Mentoring
⟶ Mindfulness, and
⟶ Meditation.
⟶ By the way, I am also a certified ‘Enlightened Warrior’ :)

“Lower self-esteem and a lack of a healthy work-life balance occur more frequently in women than men. They have been identified as frequent causes of burnout.”

"I have been following Alena for a while, found her style very convincing and got curious about SHELeads. Having had my company for a while, I am not entirely sure I was looking to better myself. I simply wanted to take a different look at myself, my feelings and behaviours to see where I stand, and also to acquire new tools and resources. Another important aspect was the exchange with other women in similar situations.
Having completed SHELeads, I definitely found powerful resources within myself and learnt new techniques to be more effective at work as well as at home, in particular in the area of communication and emotional intelligence. I learnt how to develop my arguments better. I feel much more confident, responsible and accountable in my communication with others. I find it easier to cope in tough situations, more able to step out of a situation and observe myself rather than acting on impulse. And the course has definitely sensitised me for the theme of self-care, which is even more relevant in difficult times.
Alena’s guidance worked perfectly for me, I found her to be very professional, thorough and totally committed. I would definitely recommend SHELeads to any business woman looking for personal and professional growth. Start now, don’t wait for the “perfect time!”

“From the moment I had a discovery call with Alena, I was captivated by her very special energy. Alena's ability to decode the problem, point out the stumbling blocks and help finding a solution is extraordinary. As much as self analysis and the development process might hurt, I must say that she provides the necessary “painkillers”, making this journey joyful.
Thank you, Alena, for stepping up into my development process at the right time and opening another chapter for my professional and personal life!
I will now keep practising, trying to make the best of what I have processed already. And I will definitely use the opportunity to be part of the marvellous community of my fellow SHELeaders to nourish my practice even more.
Thank you, Alena for giving your heart, knowledge and sensitive support into this beautiful and very intimate process of personal growth!”

“I can confirm that Alena’s program fully fits the purpose and beyond! I have gained more confidence in myself and become more aware of the amazing benefits of the feminine qualities in leadership, that include putting an emphasis on people development, humanity and collaboration. These qualities are very important to me personally and during the program, I found a way to leverage them in the workplace. I have also become more courageous & confident to lean into my feminine.
For all the managers and leaders: it is crucial to first understand ourselves because we project our own beliefs and insecurities onto others. This then impacts the quality of our relationships and ultimately our results.
Alena’s program pushes you hard to first discover & understand yourself, so that you can then guide others. Good leaders love bringing people together and lead them to that better future to accomplish something larger than themselves!
If you are still thinking whether or not to join SHELeads, my advice is to go for it now! You won’t regret it and at the end of the journey, you’ll be even more amazing than you already are!”

PAST PARTICIPANT PROFILE





“Lower self-esteem is also associated with the gender pay gap. People with lower self-esteem find it harder to assert themselves; they underestimate their worth and are thus unable to get what they want in a negotiation.”
NOW, TAKE A MOMENT TO REFLECT...
What is the true cost of staying in your comfort zone?
You might have become so used to your daily routine that it feels normal and manageable.
However, like many others, you’ve likely invested a tremendous amount of effort, time, or money trying to ‘get ahead’ in both your work and life. You’ve probably...
- Attended all kinds of courses, workshops, seminars, and retreats, only to find that your initial motivation quickly wore off and you're back to the old ways of doing things…
- Got yourself a prestigious MBA, only to realize that having all that knowledge is great but it doesn't transform your life.
- Worked with a mentor until it became painfully clear that what seemed to work for them is not working for you.
- Tried to learn on the job but since you've hardly had any time to reflect on your leadership strategy and effectiveness, you made a few costly mistakes.
- Realised that doing it alone proves to be a very lengthy and lonesome process!
- Relied on your company for your career development and you now see that real leadership requires so much more than just skill development. It requires inner work, which is rarely part of any corporate training curriculum. Plus, is the development path the company has in mind for you in line with the real YOU?
- Read countless books, and hired coaches, and you're still not where you want to be!
You’ve worked so hard, and yet, you’re still just scratching the surface of where you know you could be.
The fact that you’re still reading this right now means you’re ready for more… but how?
You can keep trying to piece solutions together on your own.
OR you can join SHELeads in a cohort of like-minded ambitious, hard-working women who are committed to having an awesome high-impact career but also a life that's truly worth living!
Is SHELeads right for you?
SHELeads is truly something special, but let's face it, it's not for everyone. You must be committed to your growth and willing to do the work.
SHELeads is NOT for you if…
- You don't feel well in a group and prefer a one-on-one coach.
- You're content with ‘What Is’ (because it could be much worse!) or have little curiosity and desire to test, experiment, and yes… fail forward.
But SHELeads is perfect for you if…
- You're totally ready for an ‘upgrade’ and you want to do the essential inner work.
- You have recently stepped into a (new) leadership position - people or project management - and want to build up your confidence, courage, and influence to lead in a way that's aligned with who you are!
- You have been in a leadership role for a while but want to increase your impact, gain clarity as to what's next, and start cultivating a more balanced and fulfilling life.
- You are in a period of transition, and want to skill up and get ready for your new leadership challenge, so you can job search with confidence.

SHELeads ISN’T about theoretical shifts…
It’s about EMBODYING practical leadership in action - with a feedback loop built in.
It’s fun.
It’s empowering.
It’s learning through exploration.
It’s curiosity without judgment.
It’s laughter and tears.
It’s about skills that work AT work.
It’s about balance and the complete YOU.
And it’s about learning to LEAD yourself to lead others.
Because you can’t DO leadership, you have to BE a leader.
What is THIS worth to you?
Just imagine…
- You feel a sense of power and peace - there’s an inner knowing that you are good enough, that you are capable, you matter, and you deserve respect. That debilitating self-talk is… gone!
- Your team members are doing great and bringing their best selves to work every day. You're a true role model. Your peers and superiors trust and respect you.
- You have a deep appreciation for your life’s journey that led to who you are today and your unique leadership style. The opinions of others and the fear of being judged do not stop you anymore.
- You feel calm and collected in situations of discomfort. You recognize and appreciate that you are an emotional being, but you're no longer enslaved by your emotions.
- You no longer have to perform to certain expectations or behave in a certain way in order to fit in. You understand who you are, your unique skill set, and your contribution, and you're not afraid to go after what you desire!
- You no longer need to wear protective armor to work, hiding your shortcomings and trying really hard, always proving something to somebody.
- You value your opinion and feel confident to speak up no matter the issue or the people in front of you. You can influence with your words and your presence. You feel fully in your power, as a professional, a leader, and a woman!
- You have new ways to re-energize your body and mind without having to rely solely on coffee or sugary snacks. You feel great and have enough time and energy to work hard and play hard!
- You don't feel guilty for taking proper time off, for leaving the office ‘early’, for not checking your emails enough. You enjoy a more balanced life, having enough time for what matters to you!
- You feel deeply satisfied with your work, doing what you like and getting paid what you're worth. You're not afraid to showcase yourself and your value, becoming a magnet for the opportunities that are aligned with who you are.
What would all of this be worth to you? 10,000€… 20,000€… 50,000€ or more?
Your investment in SHELeads doesn’t come anywhere close to that. What's more, you may even get sponsorship from your company!

What is SHELeads?
SHELeads is a holistic leadership training program designed specifically for women in executive and leadership roles. It's a complete package that combines training, coaching, mentorship, and ongoing support. Our mission is to empower women to excel in their careers and conquer the unique challenges they face. SHELeads targets participants within the European Union.
Is SHELeads right for me?
SHELeads is tailored for female executives across various industries who are dedicated to advancing their careers, making a positive impact, and thriving in all aspects of life. Whether you're an executive, manager, or professional aiming to enhance your leadership skills and navigate male-dominated work environments, you've come to the right place.
We welcome women at different stages of their careers. We've had experienced leaders, ambitious junior managers transitioning into leadership roles, super moms returning after maternity leave, and senior women executives seeking career advancement or change.
The ages of our participants range from 25+ to 50+.
We’ve already worked with female executives from 17 different nationalities.
This awesome variety not only adds a ton of value to the program but also brings diverse perspectives and insights into the professional world and fosters valuable connections among our participants.
How does it work?
Once you join SHELeads, you'll become part of a tight-knit group of 6 to 12 amazing women participants. We'll meet up online every week for 90 minutes, creating a safe and supportive space where you can learn, get support, find inspiration, and stay motivated. Between sessions, you'll dive into practical exercises and assignments that'll help you soak up knowledge, sharpen your skills, and embrace fresh perspectives. Alongside the group sessions, you'll also get six private one-on-one sessions with Alena to tackle specific challenges as they pop up and work towards your unique development goals.
Is SHELeads suitable for women in all industries?
Yes, SHELeads is designed to empower women across the board, no matter what industry you're in. We’ve had participants from IT, Manufacturing, Pharmaceutics, Finance, Oil and Gas, Automotive, Telecommunications and more. The program's principles and strategies are like superpowers that work their magic in any professional domain. You'll get to connect with women from diverse sectors and gain a whole new perspective on leadership.
How long is the SHELeads program?
SHELeads runs for 6 months, giving you plenty of time to dive deep, put things into action, and fully integrate all the program's modules.This duration ensures not just a temporary boost you would get from an event or a couple of days of training, but long-term transformation and growth. The majority of our participants claim that this format is unlike anything they have experienced before. The program empowers them in both their professional and private lives, making a truly profound impact.
Are there any prerequisites or specific qualifications required to join SHELeads?
No, SHELeads is open to women at different stages of their careers. Participants in the past have included experienced leaders, ambitious young professionals transitioning into leadership roles, super moms returning after maternity leave, those seeking career change or advancement and even those looking to improve their soft skills and work-life balance.
Why does the program last for 6 months?
Well, we've got a good reason! This 6-month journey gives you the perfect opportunity to dive deep, soak up all the knowledge, and really let it sink in. It's not just a quick fix or a temporary boost. Nope! We're all about sustainable growth here. With this timeframe, you'll have ample time to reflect, apply what you've learned, and make those new habits and strategies a part of your everyday life.
How are the participants selected?
We carefully assess how well the program aligns with your goals, experience, and dedication. We also make sure to create a diverse cohort, bringing together incredible women from different industries and backgrounds. Alena herself personally reviews each application to ensure the perfect fit between you and the program.
How much time do I need to set aside for it?
On average, our participants dedicate between 2 to 4 hours per week (in addition to our weekly sessions) to complete coursework, assignments, and engage with their peers and Alena, the program founder and lecturer, through our online community. The program is intense, but don't worry, we've designed it to fit into your busy schedule. You'll have the flexibility to dive deeper into specific topics at your own pace, whenever it works best for you.
Why is it for women only?
SHELeads is specifically designed to address the unique challenges women face in leadership roles, the workplace, and the various roles they play in their lives. Our goal is to create a safe and supportive space where women can openly share their experiences, concerns, and aspirations. It's all about building a strong community of like-minded women who can support and understand each other on this incredible journey.
How many participants are there in the cohort?
We like to keep things cozy and intimate, so we limit each cohort to a maximum of 12 participants. This ensures a highly interactive and personalized experience where everyone gets the attention they deserve. This small group size creates a super supportive and collaborative vibe where everyone can connect, share their experiences, and lift each other up.
What is the vision behind SHELeads?
Alena is all about helping women embrace their true selves and unleash their full professional potential while savoring all the amazing things life has to offer. It's not just a wish she has for herself, but also for the incredible women she works with. That's why she created SHELeads back in 2018 —an engaging training program that serves as a catalyst for women to ignite their inner spark, nurture their unique strengths, and gracefully navigate the delicate dance between career success and personal fulfillment. If you embark on this transformative journey with us, you'll find yourself wondering why you've waited so long for this incredible opportunity ;)
