Scaling Within.
With 10+ years of experience as a Licensed Therapist specializing in complex trauma & PTSD, I bring to the marketplace a deep understanding of brain neurology, individual wiring, and practical tools to enhance performance. I speak to companies, leadership teams, & CEO groups on a simple tool from neurobiology that helps attendees grow in self-awareness so that they have the practical tools needed to scale within as their companies grow.
Why Scaling Within?
The Scaling Within framework is perfect for audiences of CEOs & founders, leadership teams, or entire organizations. It's embedded into nearly all of Meredith’s speaking topics and will expand you & your team’s capacity to:
Sample Topics:
“We partnered with Meredith to facilitate a learning and development workshop at our team offsite in Austin. Given the rapid growth we’ve experienced as a company, we wanted to equip our team with knowledge and tools they could use to effectively navigate change and successfully grow both personally and professionally. Meredith led the team through two development activities on “thriving internally” and “empowered self leadership”. Her background as a licensed therapist and unique combination of warmth and expertise resulted in exceptional engagement, and her workshop has had a lasting effect on those that attended – myself included. I highly recommend Meredith if you are looking to arm your team members with added skills and actionable tools that they can use to thrive at work and at home.”

As a business grows, leaders and team members must make updates to their own ‘inner operating systems’ in order to grow with it In this training, you will be introduced to the Scaling Within framework, learning a simple but cutting-edge tool from the field of neurobiology that will expand your capacity to:

Keynote #3
The Future of Leadership: Waymakers Who Scale Within
Never before has the need for future-focused, self-aware leaders who can thrive internally amidst rapid change been more evident. When you’re a leader thrust into a position of pioneering amidst a shifting landscape, there is no roadmap or playbook for how to proceed. You can go so far based on your natural skills and abilities, but eventually you will hit a ceiling– where what worked in the past isn’t enough to take you to the next level of what’s needed to successfully navigate your organization’s growth going forward. Leaders of the future will need to be waymakers who continually level up, continually expanding their capacity to sustain growth & change– they will need to ‘scale within.’ In this keynote you will learn why leaders of the future must:
- Scale within (expand their capacity to sustain growth & change),
- Why self-awareness is the foundation for being able to adapt, evolve, &
- How to grow in self-awareness practically.
“Meredith led my team of 40 virtually through her seminar, "Scaling Within: Expand your internal capacity to endure change in the midst of uncertainty." The session was well-received by all and her use of story-telling and psychological and physiological references was engaging, informative, and helpful for all participants. Even in a virtual session she was able to get participation and real-time input. I highly recommend this seminar, especially now as teams are still working through the challenges & demands of changing work dynamics brought on by the pandemic.”
