In this episode, I’m joined by Amy Au, Founder of Innovate You, for a heartfelt and inspiring conversation about transformation, intentional coaching, and the impact of investing in personal development.

We open with a sweet moment—Amy shares a cherished memory of her favorite childhood treat, and I just love the connection she draws between food, family, and the roots of who we become.

Amy’s work through Innovate You is changing lives by helping individuals recognize the internal shifts they may need to make to unlock their full potential. Her coaching is deeply personal—by customizing each session to meet the individual where they are, Amy holds her clients accountable, helps shift habits in a positive direction, and supports them in letting go of what no longer serves them.

We also explore the growing momentum behind organizations offering coaching beyond the executive level—especially for women in STEM. Amy shares how early access to coaching can help women build confidence, grow into leadership roles, and feel supported along the way. And just as importantly, she highlights how male allies are beginning to benefit from coaching as well, creating a more inclusive and balanced workplace.

This was such a meaningful conversation, and I loved hearing how Amy is helping both women and men become the best versions of themselves—at work, at home, and in life.
