Leadership M.A.G.I.C.
January Cohort
Leadership M.A.G.I.C. ends your burnout.
Have you forgotten what it feels like to be energized by your work? Are you currently ruled by your calendar, uninspired and spinning your wheels? Tired? You are burned out.
Leadership M.A.G.I.C. is a nine-week course for mission-driven professionals who want to rise from the ashes of burnout and reclaim their creative fire.
Across the nine weeks you’ll be guided by the ancient myth of Baba Yaga and Vasilisa the Wise, a girl who ventures into the unknown to reclaim her life-force.
Each week you’ll receive an excerpt from the story paired with a video and a lesson to guide you on your path of transformation.
On Tuesday afternoons, we’ll meet on zoom as a cohort for coaching sessions and group rituals.
As you are guided on the path of transformation you will:
Reconnect with and sharpen your intuition.
Identify your core values and learn how to use them to guide your leadership.
Confront the patriarchy’s “story of normal” and how it dictates your decision-making in violation of your core values.
Break the curse of burnout by writing a new story for how you lead, guided by your core values, your intuition, and your newly ignited creative fire.
Nine weeks. Nine lessons.
From the ashes of burnout to creative fire.
Go from overwhelmed by it all to Leading like a Witch.
This Burnout Has to Stop.
If burnout is hurting you and it’s not getting better, it’s not your fault. Burnout among women, queer and non-binary leaders is epidemic and it isn’t an accident. It’s built-in.
Burnout is a curse perpetuated by capitalism, colonialism, and the patriarchy.
It extinguishes our internal fire and leaves us too exhausted to be the leaders that our organizations and missions count on us to be. Witches know how to break curses: with a ritual journey that has been passed down for hundreds of years. And we know how to return to wholeness, with tools you can use every day, and spells that reconnect you to the power and confidence that is truly yours.
The Journey is Simple.
1. Join the Circle
Sign up for our January 2026 course and join a cohort of up to 12 others. They are your circle of caring and committed leaders who will do deep work alongside you. You’ll be together in weekly zoom meetings for coaching and rituals. And, you’ll share your journey with each other in between meetings in a WhatsApp chat just for you. Check out our group agreements here.
2. Follow the Path.
Your journey begins with a 1:1 coaching session with Ella who will help you define your goals and chart your path. With each of the nine lessons you’ll take clear, simple steps guided by story excerpts and worksheets. Lessons are self-paced (less than an hour per week) and completed ahead of each week's group ritual and coaching. Ella will guide you through it all.
3. Lead like a Witch.
Your personal magic is the key to breaking the curse of burnout and rising as a newly empowered, confident, intuitive leader. By the end of this journey you’ll have internalized ancient wisdom and forged new tools to guide your decision-making and leadership style. You will be in control of your time and energy, having written a new story of how you want to work. Guided by your intuition and rooted in your power, you are now leading like a Witch.
M.A.G.I.C. stands for
Meet your shadow
Your shadow is a source of power, and when you meet it, you are emboldened. You begin to break the curse of burnout that is colonizing your sense of self by setting a transformative intention, then confronting the parts of you that tell you your dreams are not possible. You’ll learn how to work with your shadow and apply that power so that you are leading as your whole, authentic self.
Activate your values
You identify your values and learn to lead from your instinctual core. You’ll create your values star, a unique somatic tool that allows your body to be your compass. With this tool, you now make aligned decisions easily, in-the-moment, and without guilt. Your somatic power becomes a spell of liberation.
Give your unique gifts
The gifts you have to give to the world are being suppressed by capitalism's relentless grind. Breaking the curse of burnout means identifying the gifts that you uniquely bring to the world and using them in your leadership. Rather than your gifts being extracted from you by a system designed to break you, you now offer your gifts only to those who deserve to benefit from what you as an individual bring to your work and life.
Increase belonging
You deserve to feel with your body that you are enough, you are powerful, and you belong. Working with the elements of earth, air, fire, and water, this step includes a ritual that seals this feeling in your bones and you begin to rise again with powerful new tools and rituals of your own to carry into your work and keep your internal flame lit.
Create effective rituals
You complete the journey having claimed a life rhythm that feels spacious, creative, and calm. Your rituals include rest and reflection. Your work and life are fueled by joy and it's infectious to others. You are visible, powerful, and now you share your magic with your community.
You are a wise guide, leading transformation with confidence, sustainability, and joy. You are leading like a Witch.

What others say:
“I wasn’t even sure that coaching could work, to be honest. I was afraid it was going to be more of the same. Now, I feel like I went five levels up. This cycle of going to the dark and learning about yourself and coming back out is rooted in a very old process. Get in there.”
“When I first started working with Ella, I felt uncertain how to advocate for myself without rocking the boat. Through our work together, I started trusting my intuition and leaning into my natural strengths with confidence. Today, I’m in a role with greater responsibility where I feel strong, seen, and fully capable. If you’re feeling burned out, stuck, unseen, or unsure of your next move, I can’t recommend Ella’s work highly enough. It’s truly transformational.”
“Ella’s witchy-ness, combined with many years of experience in politics and as a coach were just what I was hoping for and on top of that, she is genuinely caring and fun to work with. I would recommend Ella’s coaching program to anyone who wants to feel more powerful, confident, and connected to their own magic.”
