I’m Ruth & I’m a Speaker, PCC Coach, PMP, & ViA Character Strengths practitioner specializing in leadership, ethics, burnout prevention, & organizational resilience. By blending law, science, experience, & conversation, I help leaders & organizations transform how they work, communicate, & navigate the complex challenges of modern workplaces. British-born, long-time U.S. citizen, equal parts curious magpie & steady co-pilot, I’m the kind of introvert who loves a stage, then needs a quiet walk to mingle with crickets & butterflies. I mix UK/US idioms, collect good questions, & believe ethics isn’t a policy—it’s a practice. People come to me when life feels loud: too many meetings, not enough clarity, big decisions hovering. My gift is listening until the signal emerges, then helping you make one small move that changes the week. Burnout happens more often than we admit—and it can lead to moments we regret. I know. I lived it. And I found my way forward so you don’t have to I’d ignored the warning signs, skipped self-care, & prioritized deadlines over health. The experience changed my life & my focus.
