Founder, Amanda Nelson Consulting
Former Vice President of Guess? And Nasty Gal, Fashion brands

“After years working as a VP at both Nasty Gal and Guess?, I was at a career crossroads deciding if I wanted to continue as a corporate executive or start building my own business so I could have more flexibility and freedom both for my family and myself. Leslie really helped me think through how to showcase my strengths, and also had great advice on tools I would need to run my own business effectively."

Coach, Podcaster, Influencer
Former Co-founder Dimepiece, fashion

“Leslie's intensive knowledge of business and the self-development process really helped me get through my doubts of starting over again in my entrepreneurial journey. She is patient, open, understanding, organized, personable, motivated, grounded, and extremely aware—an overall badass. Her own personal journey is truly inspiring. Her raw vulnerability helps me resonate with everything and I am able to infuse what she teaches into my own business and life.”

Master NLP, EFT & Time Techniques Practitioner, Former Travel Advisor

Working with Leslie helped me create structure in my business; develop multiple revenue streams; be strategic AF; nail my niche and brand; understand the basics of business; and stay motivated and inspired. I replaced my previous annual income with just ONE of the offerings that my business offers and just had my BIGGEST month in business—I owe a lot of those results to Leslie’s coaching. If you want to leave the 9-5 or build your business, this must be YOUR SIGN!

Owner Firebrand Creative House

"When I started my own creative agency Firebrand in 2020, there were so many things I knew I didn't know, especially about running a business beyond the design work. Leslie has been a mentor to me throughout the process, and her Cutclass course empowered me to figure out a schedule that aligned with the way my brain and body naturally work best. Her course helped set me on the right track to sustainably running my own business and avoiding burnout!"

Owner Greenwood Advisory
Former VP of Restaurant Development, hospitality

“After 20 years as an employee, I reached a point where I was exhausted, overworked and didn’t feel appreciated. Leslie helped me identify what I actually wanted for the next stage of my career and life. Her guidance was critical to transitioning into my own consulting venture—she was there every step of the way as we built the purpose & foundation for my new company. My 1st year in business earned almost 2.5X what I made my best year as an Executive."

The Ikigai Entrepreneur
Former Product Manager at Reed & Mackay, Luxury tourism

"After the course I launched my new group coaching program and earned $3,990 in two weeks! Before the course I was in a state of overwhelm with all the projects I had going on, but now I have new structures in place to manage my work and resources efficiently, so that I can focus on what I love the most: working with my clients, creating new products and growing my business.”

Independent Artist, Tomsy, musician

“I had spent years of my life coasting, going through the motions, boxed in and felt so stuck. Leslie gave me advice, tools, and perspectives needed to thrive and expand in ways I never thought possible. My artist project has really taken off working with her. My latest song was my biggest release yet (streamed all over the world in more than 100 different countries). Leslie really set me up for success, and I could not be more excited on this journey to reach my goals.”
