FORMER CMO | LEADERSHIP COACH |    STRATEGIC ADVISOR

Teresa Low

I help accomplished women see what makes them distinctive, communicate their value with clarity and confidence, and navigate what’s next. This is what I call, Inner Clarity. Outer Visibility.

You’ve outgrown the story you’ve been telling about yourself.

You’ve accomplished a lot. But your old story may no longer fit who you’ve become.

Maybe you’ve become the trusted operator everyone relies on, but you’re ready to be seen as the strategic leader you already are.

Maybe you’re at a turning point, considering a new role, business or chapter, and struggling to explain what everything you’ve done adds up to.

Or maybe you simply know you’re capable of more, but you’re too close to your own story to see clearly what makes you distinctive.

That’s where I come in.

I help you step back, find the thread and get clear on the value only you bring, so you can communicate it clearly and move forward with greater confidence.

30+ years leading brands through moments that matter

From Ogilvy to Hershey, Beam Suntory, Winebow, and Acme Smoked Fish

Former CMO, Global Brand Leadership


Now focused on helping leaders navigate their own inflection points

Meet Teresa

For more than 30 years, I’ve led brands and marketing teams
at companies like Hershey, Beam Suntory, Winebow, and Acme Smoked Fish,
where I served as Chief Marketing Officer.

But what I learned wasn’t just about marketing.

It was about how leaders operate under pressure.

The ones who succeed aren’t always the smartest or most capable.
They’re the ones who know what to carry and what not to.

As an outsider in many of the rooms I’ve been in,
I learned to read patterns quickly, ask better questions,
and bring clarity when things felt uncertain.

That perspective is what I bring to my clients today.

I work with high-performing women leaders
who are used to being the one who steps in and figures things out.

I know this pattern because I’ve lived it.

At some point, that stops working.

You end up carrying too much, overthinking decisions,
and staying closer to execution than you want to.

My work is helping you step out of that pattern.

So you can trust your judgment,
lead at the right level,
and stop carrying everything yourself.

What I Offer

 

Choose the path that best fits where you are today.
Each engagement is designed to help you step back, gain clarity, and move forward with confidence in your leadership.

Even the best athletes have coaches. Not because they are weak, but because they are committed to performing at their highest level.

For leaders navigating growth and change, coaching creates the space, structure, and perspective needed to keep evolving without burning out.

Clarity Sprint

A focused 3-month reset for when doing more is no longer the answer

You’ve been the one who steps in and gets things done. But lately, it feels heavy. Unclear. Off.

This is where we step back and get clear.

We identify what you’re carrying that isn’t yours, reconnect you to how you actually lead best, and define what matters for your next move.

You leave with clarity, direction, and a way to move forward without defaulting back into over-functioning.

 

From Operator to

Strategic Leader

A 6-month coaching experience to shift from over-functioning to strategic leadership

You’re trusted to deliver.
But you’re still too close to the work.

You over-explain.
You step in too often.
You carry more than you should.

And it’s keeping you from being seen at the level you operate.

This is where that changes.

We clarify your leadership voice,
build the confidence to trust your judgment, and translate it into how you show up every day.

So you’re not just doing the work. You’re shaping direction, influencing decisions,
and leading at the level you’re capable of.

Leadership Momentum

Ongoing support for leaders who are ready to lead without carrying everything

You’ve done the work to step out of over-functioning. Now the focus is sustaining it.

This is where we continue to sharpen your judgment, navigate real-time leadership challenges, and strengthen how you show up in high-stakes moments.

So you don’t slip back into old patterns
and you keep building influence, visibility, and impact.

This is for leaders who are no longer trying to prove themselves.

They’re shaping what comes next.

“Teresa helped me realize that stepping back doesn’t mean stepping away; it means creating space for others to rise. I’ve become a more trusting, empowering, and grounded leader because of her guidance - and our culture has never felt more intentional or aligned.”

Katie C., Head of Sales & Marketing

“Teresa’s mentorship never feels like a checklist - it’s organic, real, and full of lightbulb moments. She leads with honesty and care, making it safe to be vulnerable. Her belief in my potential, even when I doubt myself, gives me the courage to keep growing as a leader.”

Semi S., Graduate Student & Emerging Leader

“Before working with Teresa, I felt caught between two identities - the artist and the executive. She helped me see that those qualities aren’t opposites; they’re fuel. Teresa unlocked a new understanding of leadership rooted in creativity, clarity, and self-trust. It’s changed how I lead and how our company operates.”

Katie C., Head of Sales & Marketing

“Working with Teresa to bring my book "Get Grounded" to life was one of the greatest gifts. She has an extraordinary gift for translating strategy into clarity, creativity, and confidence - grounding me in the belief that my story and my voice truly matter.”

Armine G., Author & Business Management Professional
