Your résumé is not your story.
A way to map where you’ve been and ask what you want more of from here.
Maybe this is you
“How did I get here?”
You’re successful. People think you’re doing great.
But lately you’ve caught yourself wondering…
Is this really the life I’m trying to build?
Stop asking, what’s wrong?
Start asking—what do I want MORE of?
MORE is a creative practice to help you step back, see your life differently, and begin mapping what comes next.
This could mean a new beginning—or a new way of living exactly where you are.
What is MORE?
Better questions.
MORE is a creative process that helps you build intentionality in your life choices.
Listen to your own heart’s desires. Learn to separate those from the expectations and patterns that were inherited or learned.
MORE is a tool that helps people build practices that let them identify and experience their own philosophy.
Put your life on paper.
Your choices, turning points, people, and experiences. Step back and see what emerges.
What keeps showing up?
What lights you up?
What do you want MORE of?
A map you can keep coming back to.
Use it to evaluate options, notice familiar patterns, and make choices that feel more like your own.
Where this began
This is a journey I relate to.
I have run very large teams, the largest strategy team in NYC for Ogilvy, and then served as CSO for two cross-agency integrated teams (Walmart at Publicis & Nissan United at TBWA/Chiat Day).
At the same time, I was breaking all the rules in creating my own authentic life. It took too long to find vulnerability and learn to cherish this journey and recognize that not painting by the numbers had shown another path was possible and it was better than I imagined.
At work, I started creating things—I innovated training programs around soft skills to help teams understand how to self-advocate, manage up, position themselves, and work the company to preserve their authentic goals. Eventually I broadened my reach and began speaking at FIT and Marymount about how to position yourself authentically and get a job. I created MORE and then brought it to the training team at TBWA/Chiat Day and we ran it globally.
I am not a coach or therapist. I am someone who has survived and thrived in a tough corporate space.
I’ve put time into creating tools for that journey, using my skills as a planner and my experience as a cancer survivor and single mom navigating corporate life.
I think it’s fair to say I found mentors who gave it to me “for real”. But from what I have observed few people have mentors now.
MORE grew from mapping my own life, then sharing that practice with others.
Turns out, everyone is looking for more.

Experiencing MORE
“She has a remarkable gift for helping people see possibilities they couldn’t quite see for themselves. Even a jaded advertising guy like myself.”
Jim Nolan
Creative Director & Writer
“I shared with her your career mapping exercise and she says it gave her such clarity. And even the confidence to go after what she wanted, because now she had a story to tell.”

On her friend’s experience
“I was lucky enough to do this exercise with Leslie when we were both working at TBWA\Chiat. … Leslie is a phenomenal speaker and leader. I still have the map I created for myself the second she explained the value of it to all of us.”
Lisa Savage
Former Group Creative Director, TBWA\Chiat\Day
“She saw something I was too close to see. If you have the chance to work with Leslie in any capacity, do it. Especially if you are in a place where you know you need clarity and perspective.”

What’s your MORE?
Bring the question that’s been following you.
Live webinar
An hour to start thinking about what MORE means to you.
I’ll introduce the mapping tool and some of the science behind the approach, and share practical tips on self-advocacy and pivoting—based on what I’ve learned teaching this tool globally and one-to-one. As a CSO leading some of the largest strategy teams in advertising, I saw that people were feeling what I was feeling, too. There has to be MORE.
MORE led me to quit a job running strategy for Walmart at Publicis. It led me to train my dog to be part of Caring Canines, visiting cancer patients every week. This is something a corporate life never enabled me to do.
Quitting habits, thoughts, beliefs, stories we tell ourselves—this is the work. It starts with naming it. It continues with self-compassion. It offers perspective, not easy answers.
Bring the question that’s been following you. You don’t need to have it all figured out. That’s the point.
