Where Psychology Meets Performance
Hi, I’m Meg Gillespie.
I believe leadership isn’t about a title.
It’s about how you show up for yourself, your relationships, and your vision.
Whether you’re running a business, a household, or a creative calling, you are leading.

The Intersection of Systems & Strategy
I help high-performing entrepreneurs and executives strengthen how they think, decide, and lead so success is both strategic and sustainable.
My background as a licensed therapist and executive coach gives me a unique lens into human performance: how our values, mindset, and nervous system shape the way we lead, build, and connect.
I’ve worked with founders, executives, and professionals navigating high-stakes decisions and seasons of growth. What I’ve learned is that the most successful people aren’t the ones who push the hardest. They’re the ones who know how to recover, refocus, and lead from clarity instead of reactivity.
The Work We Do
We often think growth requires more effort. In reality, it requires better systems both in business and within ourselves.
When leaders operate with composure and consistency, everything around them follows: decisions improve, communication steadies, and results compound. This is the foundation of my work: to help you operate at your highest level, under pressure and over time.
My Approach:
My method blends psychology, neuroscience, and leadership strategy.
We build from three pillars:
Clarity: Identify your core values, strengths, and drivers. This becomes your decision filter and performance foundation.
Capacity: Refine how you manage focus, pressure, and recovery. Build the internal systems that sustain long-term performance.
Coherence: Align your decisions, structure, and communication with what matters most creating consistency that others can trust.
The result: grounded, high-performing leadership that scales sustainably.
Credentials & Background
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC)
National Certified Counselor (NCC)
M.S. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling
M.A.T. in Education
15+ years of experience spanning education, psychotherapy, executive coaching, and leadership development
Based in Atlanta, I work with clients across the U.S. through private coaching, workshops, and advisory partnerships. Note: While I am a licensed therapist, executive coaching is not the same as therapy. For those with clinical concerns, this work is not for you.
A Note on My Work
I believe leadership starts with self-leadership.
Your presence sets the tone for everything you build in your business, your team, your family.
When you learn to operate with clarity and composure, growth stops feeling like survival and starts feeling like strategy.
