Hello! I’m Diana Lagler

I love working with people of all ages who want to discover and live the life they’re meant for by creating space, support, and practical tools and resources.

My own road has been a winding one, shaped by so many different people and experiences. I earned a BS in French at Georgetown, an MBA at Kellogg, an ICF ACC certification, and have built a 25+ year career working at and with leading brands in financial services, tech, and consulting, primarily in enterprise sales. I’ve navigated marriage, divorce, and motherhood ~ and continue to learn about myself and about life each and every day.

A yogi, a seeker, a nature-lover, a second-generation American, and mom to four incredible kids, two dogs, and a tail-less fish named Survivor, my north star has always been this quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson:

“To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”

Drop me a note to share what’s on your mind ~ I can’t wait to meet you!

  • Praise

    “I have a traditional client service background and was not immediately comfortable moving to a more “sales” focused role. Diana showed me ways to go about conversations that felt organic and true to who I am, supported me in ways that allowed me to learn, yet was there to push me outside my comfort zone when I needed to be. Working with Diana gave me the confidence and skills that have allowed me to build genuine relationships and increase my overall performance.”
