Tune In • Reclaim Your Ground • Use Your Voice • Embody Your Leadership
ISSUE NO. 1 | NOVEMBER 2025
Welcome to the inaugural issue of T.R.U.E. Leadership for Women.
I’m so glad you’re here! This marks the beginning of something meaningful — a place where accomplished women can slow down, reconnect with what matters, and explore a grounded, more authentic way of leading.
Each month, I’ll share real stories, fresh insights, and practical tools to help you lead with strength, authenticity, and impact.
I’m also putting the finishing touches on my new website, BrayLeadership.com — a space designed to help women realign their leadership, reclaim their voice, and lead with presence and purpose. I can’t wait to share it soon.
Something new is unfolding — and I’d love for you to be part of it as it comes to life.

The Space Between What Was and What's Next
Greetings Reader,
This month, we’re exploring the theme of transition — because every new chapter begins with a pause, a moment of reflection, and a choice.
It’s a question I hear often from the women I coach:
“What if I have the title, but I don’t feel like the leader I expected to be?”
Transitions aren’t always about changing roles or organizations.
Often, they’re about showing up differently — more grounded, more aligned, more true — right where you already are.
With that in mind, let’s step into this month’s feature...
Stepping into Your Next Chapter
In my coaching work, I’ve seen again and again that clarity doesn’t follow the transition — it leads it.
It begins quietly, in small acts of courage, presence, and alignment.
Here are three ways to anchor yourself before the change begins:
- Pause before you decide. Transitions are noisy; clarity hides in stillness.
- Listen for energy. Notice what fuels you and what drains you.
- Experiment safely. Small, low-stakes shifts create momentum for deeper change.
Clarity is the compass, not the destination.
Try This...
This week, choose one grounding action:
- Protect 30 minutes this week for thinking, not doing.
- Say “no” to one request that pulls you out of alignment.
- Write down three moments you felt most "yourself" at work.
True Story
One of my clients, a senior VP, believed she needed to resign in order to feel whole again. But through our work together, she realized she didn’t need to leave — she needed to lead differently.
By setting clearer boundaries and voicing her true needs, she created the shift she had been craving.
Sometimes the biggest transition isn’t external at all. It’s the moment you decide to claim your space.
Ready for Your Next Chapter?
You’ve achieved so much — yet something inside you knows there’s more.
More clarity.
More ease.
More alignment between who you are and how you lead.
Through my signature coaching experience, Leading TRUE, I help accomplished women reconnect with their rhythm, realign their leadership, and step into what’s next with renewed confidence and purpose.
If you’re ready to pause, reflect, and begin again, I’d be honored to start that conversation with you.
Until next month remember — you don't need a new title to lead differently.
