Leadership is more than a title or position—it’s a way of being. Alison and Marcy, co-founders of Revel Coach, shared profound insights on purposeful leadership, redefining success as a balance of intentionality in both personal and professional spheres.
Leadership Rooted in Values
Alison and Marcy believe that true leadership starts at home. Whether it’s teaching children life values or supporting a partner’s goals, the lessons we model at home influence how we lead teams, clients, and communities.
"Your spouse is the person you’re building everything with," Alison shared. "Leadership is about learning, growing, and creating shared experiences together."
This philosophy extends to their business. For Alison and Marcy, success means empowering women to embrace leadership roles while balancing the complexities of family life. Revel Coach’s mission is to foster a community where mentorship and collaboration thrive, proving that leadership is most impactful when grounded in shared values.
Mindset as a Foundation
A strong, growth-oriented mindset is key to thriving in life’s challenges. Alison and Marcy emphasized the importance of replacing negative self-talk with constructive dialogue, both internally and within families. One exercise they recommend involves reflecting on everyday moments through the lens of family core values.
"We don’t accidentally drift into becoming our best selves," Alison explained. "It takes intentionality. When we view ordinary moments as opportunities to teach and reinforce values, we create a legacy of joy and purpose."
Avoiding the Comparison Trap
They also touched on the dangers of comparison, a challenge amplified in today’s social media-driven world. Whether it’s parenting, business, or personal growth, they stress the importance of focusing on your unique journey.
"Comparison is the thief of joy," Marcy remarked. "Instead of measuring yourself against others, find inspiration and use it to fuel your own growth."
Building a Supportive Circle
One of the most practical pieces of advice Alison and Marcy shared is the importance of curating relationships. From your closest friends to business clients, the people you surround yourself with profoundly impact your mindset and success.
"Be intentional about the energy you bring into your life," Marcy advised. "Choose relationships that inspire and uplift you, both personally and professionally."
