Theresa Lugo
Leadership & Empowerment Coach
Are you ready for transformation that lights up your soul?
I’m a coach with a fire for transformation, rooted in a bold career leading teams in retail and corporate spaces. From project management to different levels of leadership and championing diversity & inclusion —I’ve lived the hustle and led with heart. I bring a rare blend of real-world leadership experience and deep emotional intelligence, helping clients bridge the gap between where they are and where they want to be. My approach fuses soul and strategy — because I believe personal growth and professional results are not mutually exclusive. If you’re ready to rise, get things done, and do it your way, I’m the one in your corner cheering you on and keeping you accountable.
In addition to coaching, I'm a 200-hour registered yoga teacher, a golden doodle mama, and someone who’s always chasing real-life experiences — whether that’s leading a project, walking a beach in a new country, or holding space for a deep, honest conversation. I earned my business degree while working full-time—turning every lecture into a lesson I applied that same day. It wasn’t easy, but it taught me how to lead with grit, real-world wisdom, and a commitment to growth that hasn’t left me since. For over 13 years, I built my career at a Fortune 500 company recognized as one of the Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For, where I led small and large diverse teams across multiple roles. I’m proud of the grit, growth, and grounded leadership I developed through every season. My mission is to help leaders like you break through what’s been holding you back — the self-doubt, the overwhelm, the pressure to be everything to everyone — and finally step into confidence with clarity. I’ve walked the path of leadership, burnout, breakthroughs, and bold choices, and I bring every lesson with me into the coaching space. This isn’t just about goals — it’s about you, becoming more grounded, more powerful, and more you than ever before.
