There is an untamed woman waiting for you.

Behind your competency and accomplishments. Beneath the woman who can handle it. Or being the one everyone always turns to. 

There is another woman.

Can you feel her? She is the woman who longs for more. 

More truth. More freedom. More pleasure. More power. More room to create, lead, love, choose, and live in a way that is right for her.

She has instincts she’s learned to override.
Desires she’s made reasonable for everyone else.
A voice she keeps turning down.
A body that already knows.

She is not waiting to become someone else.

She is waiting to be fully inhabited.

This is Lioness.

Lioness is a body of work for women who are ready to become more deeply self-led.

WORD ON THE STREET

You already know how to think.

You know how to strategize. Make the list. Gather the data. Push through. Figure it out.

That intelligence has gotten you far.

But it is not your whole system.

Your body knows too.

What you want. What no longer fits. Where you are compromising. What feels alive. What is ready to move.

Inside Lioness, we work with all of it:

Intuition. Body. Desire. Strategy.

So your decisions get cleaner.
Your relationships get more honest.
Your leadership gets more powerful.
Your creativity comes back.

And you stop abandoning what you know.

Your career works.
Your relationship may even be good.
You’ve built a beautiful life.

And yet....

Something in you is pressing against the walls. Clawing to get out. 

A chapter is ending - you can feel it.
A desire is getting harder to ignore. It's waking you up at night.
A version of you has become too constricted.

You know there is more life available to you.

And you are realizing you cannot spreadsheet your way into it.

Good.

That’s often where our work begins.

And maybe nothing is terribly wrong…

The world does not need a more polished version of you.

It needs the woman underneath it all.

The woman with teeth. Grit. And an enormous amount of love.

The woman who knows when something is over. And something else is ready to begin.

The woman who can feel what she wants before she can explain why.

The woman who knows the difference between a life that looks good and one that actually feels alive.

The woman who can roar and purr in equal measure.

Lioness is for extraordinary women ready for what’s next.

WHAT HAPPENS INSIDE LIONESS

This is not about becoming fearless.

It is about becoming trustworthy to yourself.

We work with the places where your knowing and your living have become disconnected.

The decision you already know but have not made. The conversation you keep avoiding. The work you want to create. The part of your leadership you are still apologizing for. The desire you are scared to admit. The pleasure you have forgotten how to receive.

Because the reality is…the identity that got you here - may not be able to take you where you are going.

We may talk. We may move. We may work somatically. We may pull out the spreadsheet.  We may use breath, sound, touch, pleasure, emotional release, relational practice, role play, inquiry, ritual, silence, or something I cannot predict until you are standing in front of me.

The modality is never the point.

The point is to get closer to your truth. And then build a life capable of holding it.

WAYS TO WORK TOGETHER

  • Private Work

    Deep, highly personalized work for women navigating a threshold, expansion, decision, transition, or desire. We work with your full ecosystem: body, identity, relationships, leadership, pleasure, power, and the practical architecture of your life.

    Whether you are creating your life’s work, expanding into new offerings, taking a big leap in life and work or something in between, I will walk beside you as you do the thing. 

  • Retreats

    Immersive group experiences for women ready to step outside ordinary life long enough to hear themselves again.

    Retreats, intimate gatherings, and transformational spaces built around embodied intelligence, self-authority, connection, pleasure, and truth.

  • Leadership & Facilitation

    Workshops, talks, retreats, and advisory experiences for leaders and organizations interested in a more human form of leadership - one rooted in presence, relational intelligence, embodiment, courage, and the ability to actually move people.

Leadership begins long before anyone follows you.

I am interested in leadership in its most fundamental form:

Can you lead yourself?

Can you recognize what you know?

Can you stay in relationship with yourself when your truth is inconvenient to the group?

Can you tolerate being misunderstood - and say it anyway?

Can you want something without immediately negotiating yourself against it?

Can you hold power without hardening?

Can you remain open and soft without abandoning your boundaries and self respect?

This is embodied leadership.

And it changes far more than the way you work.

It changes the way you live.

MEET THE HEAD LIONESS

STEPHANIE REDLENER

Founder · Personal Advisor · Experience Designer

I have spent much of my life inside rooms where something real is trying to happen.

Leadership rooms. Women’s rooms. Boardrooms. Bedrooms. Back rooms. Retreat rooms.

Rooms where someone is about to say something out loud they have never said before. Rooms where a life is about to change. Rooms most people never have the privilege of entering. 

My work is difficult to reduce to a single methodology because human beings are difficult to reduce to a single methodology. I pull from decades of experience in leadership, experience design, facilitation, somatic practice, embodiment, sexuality, relational work, pleasure, and the study of how human beings change and evolve.

I have walked my own walk. Been to hell and back. 

The thing I trust most is presence.

I listen to what you say. I listen harder to what your body says while you are saying it. I notice the moment your energy changes.

The sentence you rush past.what you think is acceptable. The place where you try to hide. The place where you come alive.

And then we go there.

I will meet you with enormous tenderness and fierceness, humor and love. And I will not collude with the parts of you committed to staying small. I will hold your deepest desires alongside you - until they are fully yours. 

That combination is the work.

You do not need to become more impressive… you’ve already done that.

You may need to become more honest.

More animal.

More specific.

More available to pleasure and receiving.

More willing to disappoint people in order to honor yourself.

More capable of receiving.

More willing to take up the particular shape of your own life.

There is a woman inside you who already knows how.

It’s time we let her out. 

Everything you want lives right beyond your edge.

The decision you already know but haven’t made.

The conversation you keep avoiding.

The work you want to create.

The desire you’re afraid to admit.

The pleasure you’ve forgotten how to receive.

The part of your power you are still apologizing for.

Because the identity that got you here may not be the one that takes you where you’re going.

The point is not another breakthrough.

The point is getting close enough to your truth that you can no longer pretend you don’t know.

And then building a life capable of holding it.

SIGNATURE EXPERIENCE

The LIONESS Dinner

Once a month, Stephanie gathers 20 high-achieving female founders, creators, executives, and community leaders around a table. This is not a networking event. It is a curated evening where you come alive. The power and energy at these dinners are unmatched.

Guests return years later describing the exact moment the room shifted. That's not accidental. That's what we design for.

To date, we have hosted over 50 events and reached over 5,000 women.

OUR NETWORK

Whether you are a partner, investor, sponsor or a founder (and sometimes both!), you are our guest. Here’s a snapshot of the company we keep.
