About Stella Nera Coaching
Empowering your Journey to Success
Why the name?
Stella Nera, Italian for Black Star, signifies the perpetual journey towards authenticity, purpose, and happiness. It's about living a story that brings you fulfillment and joy, and one that you want to repeat over and over again.
Why try coaching?
Professional coaching holds a transformative power. It is rooted in vulnerability, curiosity, and courage, and requires commitment to growth from both coach and client(s). It embraces the belief that the ability to fail courageously is an essential stepping stone towards reaching one's fullest potential. Whether private, team, or company-wide sessions, expect to explore, evolve, and take aligned action for lasting impact. In doing so, we will together tap into varying levels of reality and types of intelligence.
Who is it for?
Coaching is for anyone (individuals, leaders, executives, teams, and organizations alike) willing to be curious and intentional about growth and change. We don't exist in silos, rather in the context of our relationships, shaping us both personally and professionally. Coaching is for those that are future-focused; it helps to guide you and your team or organization in shaping a clear vision of what’s possible. Coaching transforms both existing and emerging goals into actionable steps, turning aspirations into reality.
Who it is not for: There are instances where a different level of support is needed (or added). Click here for an overview on the differences between coaching, consulting, and therapy.
HOW I HELP:
I help leaders become better leaders, teams function more effectively, and systems recognize their individual and collective strength.
Individual Coaching
Unlock Your Voice.
Embrace Your Growth.
Working with a coach creates the space to hear your inner voice more clearly. Whether you're navigating transitions or seeking greater clarity, coaching helps you grow with intention, and develop the next version of yourself that is waiting to emerge.
Gain tools to communicate with confidence, build deeper connections, and take purposeful action toward the change you want. Your authenticity is your power—let’s bring it forward.
Team and Leadership Coaching
Elevate Leadership. Strengthen Teams. Transform Culture.
Leadership comes from within—but it doesn't end there. It requires awareness not only of individual voices, but also of the voice of the system itself. Systemic coaching goes beneath the surface to engage the team as a living, breathing entity—one with its own collective strengths, tensions, patterns, and untapped potential. When we work at that level, we unlock the team’s true capacity for growth, resilience, and transformation.

Facilitation and Speaking
Fresh Perspective.
Lasting Impact.
Bringing in a skilled facilitator can shift the energy and direction of a room. Whether it's a keynote, workshop, or team assessment, facilitation adds momentum to your goals.
With a unique background as an educator, senior executive, and systems coach, I bring a dynamic presence that inspires reflection and action—from strengths-based leadership to navigating change and conflict, my sessions are tailored to your team’s needs.
Consulting is occasionally offered as part of a customized package. This service differs from coaching and may include strategic input or project-based support—ideal for clients who retain me to work closely with their leaders and teams.
