Executive Coach | Zoë Dehmer Coaching & Consulting

When something important needs to change.

I help leaders avoid costly mistakes and wasted energy when the stakes are high, without losing sight of themselves in the process.

Let's talk

When you carry real responsibility

For a team. A business. A reputation. A family.

There’s a decision in front of you that matters. A role to take or leave. A direction to commit to. A tension in your organization that won’t resolve itself. When your current way of leading stops working.

You have motivation. You know how to think strategically. That isn’t the issue.

My clients are high-agency leaders and entrepreneurs who:

Make decisions that affect other people’s livelihoods
Feel the weight of visibility and expectation
Care deeply about doing things well
Want their thinking to be challenged in service of better outcomes

We work on things like:

Making a high-stakes decision and tolerating the discomfort that follows
The tension between your ambition and the impact it is having on your personal life
The sense that your old way of leading is no longer working
The more successful you appear, the more lonely you feel
Realizing the problem is not your team, it's how you are leading them
Bouncing between over-functioning and burning out
Career inflection points and role fit
Navigating organizational change without losing yourself

See if we're a fit

I'm Zoë,
an I/O psychologist
and executive coach

I have worked across industries in organizational development, people operations, and applied human factors research. I combine evidence-based tools with candid insight. I will push you when you need it and challenge you when you try to hide from yourself.

What my philosophy looks like in practice:

Courageous initiation. Start before you're ready. I help you become someone who can finally make the moves your deeper self is calling for.
Patient perseverance. I help you navigate long arcs of change without panic, without burning everything down, and without abandoning yourself halfway through.
Intuitive timing. Together we clarify when to act and when to wait, and how to spot the false flags. Fear is often a mask for desire. We sharpen your discernment so you can move at the right time, not just the most obvious time.
Turn adversity into information. I believe our external challenges are a reflection of the shifts happening within us. With the right mindset, obstacles become helpful signals that help us target what's fundamentally changing with more specificity.
Radical responsibility. Blaming others protects your ego. Acknowledging reality and naming constraints is part of any good strategy; allowing those obstacles to dictate your response is not. Freedom is choosing to own your response to life.
What goes around... Call it karma. Call it physics. Call it psychology. When you treat people well, your nervous system responds. When you contribute, your sense of meaning grows. Being good and doing good is not naive; it is intelligent self-preservation.
Curiosity and learning keep us alive. They're not just "nice to have's" - they're survival tools. Without a sense of curiosity, purpose, and a safe environment to experiment and make mistakes, we all eventually lose the spark that keeps us hunting for what's next. I will help you protect and feed that spark.

Let's be pen pals

I work with executives and entrepreneurs navigating decisions that shape their business, identity, and the people around them.

If that kind of responsibility resonates, I share occasional emails with reflections and tools to help you stop postponing the life and work you want.

When I began coaching sessions with Zoë, I was at the start of a new and ambitious undertaking: launching a business in Italy. Zoë’s intuition and guidance have helped me uncover destructive patterns, reframe my story, and build my business with clarity.

One moment that had a major impact on my life was when she asked what I meant by feeling “scattered” in my work. I realized it was an excuse I used to avoid preparation. I was afraid of the discomfort of not knowing where to begin, of asking for help, and of potentially appearing ignorant. By framing myself as “scattered,” I diminished my potential in order to protect against imagined judgments. I'll never be able to unsee that insight.
