Irene Adams  |  Leadership Development Coach

ABOUT ME

I’m an entrepreneur with over 25 years of experience in the legal profession, where I worked closely with lawyers, articling students and support staff in high-pressure environments.  I navigated complex interpersonal dynamics, managed competing priorities and strived to perform while carrying my own personal challenges.  That experience gave me deep insight into what it takes to lead yourself with strength and resilience, even when life feels overwhelming.

​

After years of pushing through burnout and personal challenges, I made a pivotal shift into coaching, a move that transformed not just my career, but my life.  It wasn't simply a change in direction; it was the culmination of years spent developing leadership under pressure.  Stepping into work that aligns with my values and passion has been one of the most empowering decisions I’ve ever made.  This lived experience of personal and professional transformation fuels my commitment to helping others create their own meaningful, lasting change.

​

​​​This work isn’t just what I do, it’s what I deeply believe in.  My coaching goes beyond surface-level shifts; it's about transformation that feels authentic, empowered and lasting.  I bring curiosity, empathy and strategic leadership insight to every session.  I also integrate evidence-based techniques rooted in behavioral science, neuroscience and positive psychology, helping clients build mindset resilience, shift limiting beliefs and lead from the inside out, creating meaningful, sustainable change in both life and career.​​​
