Presence to Power Coaching Program for Women in Tech
Supporting women across SF, NYC, London, Sydney, and remote-first teams.
An identity and influence accelerator for high-performing women in tech who are tired being seen as the “do-er” and are ready to be experienced as the calm, clear, strategic leader in every room.
You’re smart, respected for your work, and the person people turn to when things are on fire.
And yet:
- Your ideas don’t always land in the rooms that matter.
- You leave high-stakes meetings replaying what you should have said.
- You’re seen as the “do-er” or the safe pair of hands – not the strategic leader you actually are.
Presence to Power is designed for the moment where you realise:
“I know I’m capable. I’m just not being experienced as the leader I actually am.”
Who This Is For
Presence to Power is for women in tech — across product, engineering, AI/ML, data, design, marketing, and ops — who are:
- Brilliant but overlooked or under-titled
- Anxious or reactive in high-stakes meetings
- Avoiding speaking up or pushing back with senior stakeholders
- Exhausted from constantly proving themselves
- Feeling invisible, underestimated or misread (“too quiet”, “too direct”, “too emotional”)
- Craving more clarity, presence and respect without having to become a different person
What Changes Inside Presence to Power
This isn’t about being more aggressive or more “polished.”
It’s about building a calm, grounded presence that your body trusts and your career reflects.
What You’ll Learn
Inside the program, you’ll also learn practical senior-level communication skills: How to run meetings, speak concisely, manage up, frame messages for senior stakeholders, and communicate clearly under pressure.
Across the 12 weeks you’ll start to:
- Speak with clarity and authority
Translate complex work into simple, senior-friendly language – without dumbing it down. - Build deep internal self-trust
Shift from “Am I good enough?” to “I know what I bring and how I want to use it.” - Stop overthinking and collapsing
Catch the patterns where you shrink, people-please or over-explain – and respond differently. - Communicate influence, not apology
Use language, structure and presence that signal leadership, even when you’re still an IC or in role ambiguity. - Show up grounded, even when you’re anxious
Bring calm, clarity and courage into meetings, performance reviews and stakeholder calls.
Be taken seriously without feeling like someone you’re not
Align your leadership identity with who you actually are, not who you think you should be.
How the 12 Weeks Work
Presence to Power is designed for high-performing women who are time poor but want real, personalised coaching.
6 private 1:1 coaching calls (60 minutes)
One deep-dive call every two weeks.
We use these for identity calibration, presence resets, communication rewrites, and high-stakes prep.
Weekly asynchronous coaching (voice notes / messages)
You can send short voice notes or messages between sessions:
– draft messages for senior stakeholders
– “I have something to say in this upcoming meeting – how do I frame it?”
– “This didn’t go well – help me debrief and reset.”
I reply with practical, targeted coaching so you’re supported in real time.
The Presence to Power Resource Hub
A private online hub with:
- 5 short video lessons (identity, presence, influence, stakeholders, resilience)
- 3 audio practices for grounding and nervous-system regulation
- 7 signature tools/PDFs (scripts, frameworks, worksheets)
A shared workspace
We keep your goals, stakeholder maps, narratives, and wins in one place so you can see your progression clearly.
Individual Presence to Power Leadership Roadmap (final session)
In our last call, we map out your next 6–12 months:
– career positioning
– visibility strategy
– boundaries and wellbeing
– concrete next steps for promotion, role change or renegotiation.
What Women in Tech Say About the
Presence to Power Program...

I finally stopped chasing roles I didn’t even want and started creating opportunities that fit who I’ve become.
About Me
Hi, I’m Madeline, a former Hollywood entertainment attorney turned leadership and presence coach.
I spent a decade working in the U.S. on high-pressure global projects before shifting into executive communication, and leadership development. Since then, I’ve coached clients at Apple, Google, Bayer, Niantic, Waymo, and fast-growing AI, engineering, and product teams in the U.S., Australia, and Europe.
My work combines nervous-system regulation, identity alignment, and influence skills so that brilliant technical women can show up with the clarity, presence, and authority their work deserves.
I don’t teach superficial performance or bro-style power scripts.
I teach the grounded, strategic presence that actually lands in senior rooms.
I created Presence to Power because I’ve seen what happens when identity gets crushed under pressure, politics, and pace, with no real guidance to rebuild it.
Companies bring me in as a generational bridge between the old professional world and the emerging, more human-centred one millennials and Gen Z are driving. And I work with individuals who’ve been excluded from the traditional power playbook, yet have the education, skill, and gravitas to be part of the new wave of leadership.
If you’re here, that’s you.
Let’s get started.
If you’re wondering, “Will this actually work for me?
Presence to Power isn’t mindset fluff, and it’s not “girlboss” or generic “women in leadership” advice.
It’s built for the real dynamics you face: ambiguity, senior stakeholders, unclear expectations, messy politics, reactive nervous systems, and the pressure to prove yourself twice as hard in a world where you don’t see yourself reflected in leadership.
You don’t need to become louder, harder, or more performative.
You need a way of showing up that your body trusts and your career reflects.
That’s what this program changes.
