Leading Shouldn’t Feel This Hard.

A personal message from Coach Darcy

You’ve worked long hours and earned the opportunity you have right now. From the outside, it looks like you’ve got it all together. But in those quiet, restless moments—often around 3 AM—you feel it.

The way you’re working isn’t working anymore.

You’re not alone. Leading at an elevated level, in this time, is different. What got you here won’t get you there. But if you keep pushing the same way, you’re on a dangerous path—toward frustration with your team, business failures, or declining health, and fractured relationships with your family, your friends. Worst of all? You risk losing yourself.

More hours won’t fix this. Walking away won’t either.

The answer is to work differently—not harder. To rediscover your clarity, reset your confidence, courage, and take back control. And it starts now.

I’m Coach Darcy Eikenberg, and here’s one thing I know: leading in a big, complex organization is no small feat.

For over 15 years, I’ve worked with senior leaders and their teams who want to handle high-stakes demands without losing themselves in the process.

My coaching approach combines neuroscience insights and real-world consulting experience with down-to-earth language and results-focused actions. Clients tell me I make the work fun and engaging, but keep them moving forward, fast, so they can apply strategies that actually work in their daily leadership lives.

I’m proud to be credentialed by the International Coach Federation (ICF, the independent gold standard for ethical professional coaches) and I’m currently pursuing my master coaching designation, which fewer than 3000 people have earned worldwide. My work’s been published in the Harvard Business Review, Fast Company and more, plus I’ve written two books, allowing me to help even more people beyond those I can coach directly.

“The Best Investment I Have Made in Myself”

I truly can’t say enough about my experience with Darcy. While I reached out to her for a specific moment in time several years ago, she has now seen me through so much growth and transition. She asks me thoughtful questions that make me think about things in ways I normally wouldn’t. She encourages me when I need it most. And she challenges me in all the best ways. The time we have is so important to me and is valuable – and I can honestly say it has been the best investment I have made in myself.
