Hi, I'm so happy you're here! And if you found this website, it might be because you know you're meant for more, you're ready to take the next step, and you're not sure how to get there. You are in the perfect place. I'm Meredith, I'm a leadership coach, an experienced facilitator, and it's my passion to help high performers maximize their impact while living their most joyful and balanced life ever. I am a recovering high performer and high achiever myself. I went to Harvard and Oxford, had a company, spent a year touring Europe, and realized that while these success metrics were validating, I wasn't actually living my purpose from the inside out. Through doing yoga, meditation, mindfulness certifications, going on my own personal development journeys like Hoffman, I realized it's my passion to help people own and share their stories. That's what I've dedicated my life to. So how I work with my clients is a blend between executive coaching, where we do action and accountability, and transformational leadership coaching. Where we go in, look at the subconscious beliefs, rewire them, and help you vision from a place of possibility. If you're serious about change, and you know you're ready to commit, take a look around this website. There's many ways we can work together, whether it's by one of my online courses, a deeper dive with one-on-one or group coaching. I know there's something for you out there. I like to say that when we do what's best for us, we do what's best for everyone, and it's my deepest hope that you find what lights you up, you commit to it radically, and you start living your most impactful and joyful life ever.

Are you ready?

I'm Meredith Baker, an ICF certified coach, facilitator and speaker in Los Angeles. I help high achievers with burnout, and I help teams build trust.

Are you a high-performer looking to find deeper meaning and purpose? Do you ever feel self-doubt and imposter syndrome despite your accomplishments? Are you seeking balance between your professional and personal life?

So many top performers face similar challenges; it's my mission to help you break free from these limiting beliefs and live your most authentic and purposeful life.

As a coach and mentor, I work with individuals who are ready to unlock their full potential and connect with their true purpose. Through my guidance and support, we work together to overcome self-doubt, find balance, and cultivate deeper connections with both themselves and others.

If you're ready to step into your power and start living a life that's truly fulfilling, then I invite you to join me on this journey of self-discovery and growth. Together, we can help you overcome the obstacles that are holding you back and create a life that's aligned with your values and passions.

Hi, okay secret coaching with Meredith is some of the best time and money. I've ever spent in my life I know that that's a dramatic statement, but I really mean it When I started working with Meredith, I felt pretty lost in my life I was successful on the surface like I was running a company. I had raised millions of dollars and yet I felt pretty overwhelmed and Yeah, just especially my personal life was a show and I was just not feeling very good and over the last year my I really can't tell you my life is completely turned around and I think much of that was because of the self-awareness that came through working with Coaching with Meredith so highly highly recommend it One of my favorite takeaways was when Meredith told me when I do what's best for me I do what's best for everybody and so previously, you know, I used to be really busy like I would have like a lot of work And then I'm going out with friends and I'm spending time with family and all of this stuff meanwhile I'm not taking time to do things that nourish me like get enough time for my meditation like have my nails done which makes me really happy And so Meredith really gave me permission to invest my energy in myself first and foremost and so I was able to show up To the rest of my life like much more energized and I've noticed that things just go better as a result of it This is a crazy thing. But my dating life is so much better and just so much more enjoyable because Meredith helped me We did this She really helped me communicate in a way that is like not mean or threatening but just also having my own boundaries and just letting people know so for instance You know if a guy asks me out on like a kind of low-effort date that I don't feel like makes me feel Good. Um, I will just I won't get mad at him or anything but I do let him know and what I found is that people are taking me on like much nicer dates as a result because I'm Communicating my standards and expectations, which is something I learned to do through working with Meredith I've also found that my work life is so much better and more enjoyable because Again, I'm doing things because I want to do them not because I should do them And so I show up more energized and things just tend to go a lot better Seriously a year ago. I never thought that my life could be as Enjoyable and like I could be as happy as I am right now I ended up going on like a four-month solo travel journey to Bali in Japan and I got an entire new closet which makes me really happy and Yeah, I just Meredith really changed my life. I couldn't recommend her more definitely do coaching with her if you can

Coaching with Meredith is some of the best time and money I've ever spent in my life.

Hi there, I'm Cassandra Michler, the CEO of Moonlab Productions. Earlier this year, Meredith came and did a workshop at our Moonlab Team Summit and was absolutely magical. We did it at the beginning of the year and our team was able to set their intentions, work through learnings from the previous year and we were able to work together as a team and really manifest what we wanted this next year to look like as a group. Meredith is amazing, she's a great facilitator and she has so many different modalities that she specializes in and I'm so grateful to have her a part of my ecosystem.

My Method

My mission is to help you discover your purpose, reignite your passion, and unleash your full potential. I implement a signature three-part methodology to help you identify and overcome the barriers and self-limiting beliefs that are holding you back. You will learn how to rewire those beliefs into new empowered behavior and vision from a place of infinite possibility. Finally, we integrate this roadmap through consistent shifts, and before you know it, you're living your most authentic life.

Let's Talk

HEY THERE

I'M MEREDITH.

As someone who has achieved traditional markers of success, I understand feeling like there's something missing. I graduated from Harvard + Oxford, travelled to over 54 countries, lived in and wrote academic papers in Africa + Latin America, founded a beverage company, and ran 25 marathons. But, lo and behold, it wasn't until I started unlearning the pattern of finding internal validation through external success metrics that I found true embodiment and fulfillment.

This set me on a decade-long self discovery journey, where I was able to unlearn my need for external validation, operate from my internal compass, and live from my joy. I worked with over half a dozen coaches, participated in transformational retreats like the Hoffman Process, and learned and participated in traditional ceremonies. Along the way, I became an ICF certified coach, Neurolinguistic Programming and Hypnosis practitioner, and a 500 hour registered meditation, yoga, and breathwork instructor. Through this lived experience, I've been able to create the career, community, and partnership of my dreams.

I believe that success is about discovering your unique path, tapping into your inner power, and creating a fulfilling life. I aim to prove that by using my life's journey as an example.

I'm an ICF certified coach, facilitator and speaker in Los Angeles. I work with founders, startup CEOs, women leaders and high achievers who look like they have it handled and still feel worn down. I also work with their teams, and with event organizers who want a talk that leaves a room different than it found it.

Two things come up again and again: high achievers who are burned out, and teams that have stopped trusting each other. Imposter syndrome, self-trust and breathwork show up in the work too.
