Who I am . . .

Hi. I’m Dr Elisha Foust,

I’m glad you’re here. I am passionate about one thing: enabling women and LGBTQI+ to work in a way that works for them NOW.

What do I mean by that? My 20 years in corporate taught me that leadership tends to nurture those who look like themselves, who come from similar backgrounds, who share the same sexuality and ethnic background.

Those of us who don’t fit that mould are often left out.

AND the way we work has now changed. More of us will turn to fractional roles, contracting and project based work going forward. Even more are looking for promotions in companies that have no ladder left.

I’m here to fill that gap. My clients come to me for a few reasons, but the main one?

They’ve lost confidence.

I help to restore confidence because I know that confidence is a skill, not something your born with.

Recently, I’ve worked with clients to:

  • Secure the next contract.

  • Find the next full time role.

  • Set up a new consultancy.

I also operate differently from other coaches:

I know you don’t need another course, certificate or ‘productivity hack.’ You need to stop spinning your wheels and start being seen as the person who actually knows what they’re doing. Right now, you’re smart, qualified and working your arse off, but still invisible when it comes to the big opportunities. What you need is authority.

This is why I work with my clients weekly. We identify the goal and then build momentum together.

I’ve spent 20+ years in the trenches leading teams, fixing crises, being the one execs call when everything’s gone sideways. Now I coach you on how to show up with authority. No jargon, no bs. We awaken your sharp thinking, clear strategy, and the kind of confidence that gets you hired.
