CEO's Best Friend

Overwhelm doesn't look dramatic for high achievers.

It looks like silence. Pushing harder. Rewriting the same to-do list 6 times. It looks like holding everybody else's emotions while having nowhere to put your own.

Does this sound familiar?

  • Holding the emotional weight of your team

  • Juggling decisions you feel pressured to make alone

  • "I can't drop this ball" fear at every turn

  • Perfectionism that quietly steals momentum

  • Responsibility with nowhere to unload it

If you read that and thought "Oh, that's me"… it is.

I'm not your therapist, coach, boss, or coworker.

I'm the one person you can talk to about the emotional and operational reality of your work — without judgment, performance, or pressure.

People bring me:

Stress about team dynamics
Decision fatigue
Procrastination rooted in fear
Conflict
"I can't tell anyone this" situations
Loneliness in leadership
Emotional labor
Burnout warning signs

ACCOUNTABILITY

Sherlock needs his Watson.

THOUGHT PARTNERSHIP

Every Oprah has a Gail.

High-level SUPPORT

Batman thrives with Robin’s help.


What clients say

The guidance and support Lane gave me and my team as we built the foundations of Margo was incredibly valuable.

The work has given our team a strong base of trust and mutual respect as we navigate building a company while managing the realities of day-to-day uncertainty. Lane is my worst-kept secret and comes with one of my highest recommendations.
— Paige Hewlett CEO, margo
Lane helped me deal with the overwhelm of the CEO role. She helped me to prioritize how best to spend my time and energy. Her insight into team dynamics and other relationship issues is keen and insightful and helps me get out of the assumptions and natural patterns I fall in to. I feel that ultimately this is the result of working is to help me become leader and CEO I know I can be.
— Gina Thorsen, CEO of Stormy Kromer
I recognized that I was the bottleneck and my contractors and clients were all waiting on me. I needed help getting out of my own way.

After working with Lane, I felt like the business could actually function without me.
I wanted to be able to breathe. I can do that now.
— Val Geisler
Lane is as cool as the other side of the pillow, as steady as a rock and a welcome port in the storm of work. While people see panic and crazy, she stays above all of that, always prepared and willing to share her relaxed but strong advice and excellent quality of work.
— Josh Kreitzman, CPA
I wish all of my clients worked with Lane!

She does an exceptional job at supporting CEOs, not only in their work but the stress (and sometimes loneliness) of the day to day job of running a growing company.
— Stacey Harris, CEO of Uncommonly More
