Learn. Align. Become.

Welcome to the LAB, where we discover how to
lead with clarity, care, and confidence.

Are you ready for a leadership development designed with your intersectional identity in mind? The RARE Leaders Lab is a six-week virtual cohort for women of color in social impact who are ready to disrupt toxic norms and reclaim what it means to lead from self-trust.

Rooted in the signature RARE Leadership Framework, this immersive incubator helps you unlearn harmful expectations, realign with your brilliance, and become the kind of leader you’ve always imagined—on your own terms.

This incubator is built on the RARE Leadership Framework—a signature care-centered, values-driven approach to building real, restorative power through your intersectional identity.

Every session is mapped to a principle, with tools to integrate each one into your leadership style.

We focus on four principles:

  • Radical Vision – Lead boldly and imagine beyond the status quo

  • Authentic Engagement – Lead with integrity, empathy, and wholeness

  • Responsive Management – Navigate challenges with clarity and agility

  • Executive Presence – Position yourself as a strategic decision-maker

You were never meant to lead like them.

The RARE Leaders Lab is the entry point into our ecosystem—a place where you don’t have to shrink, code-switch, or hustle to be taken seriously with the support and solidarity you deserve.

Instead, you get to slow down, speak your truth, and design a leadership style that honors both your ambition and your humanity.

You don’t need another cookie-cutter blueprint.
You need a mirror. A map. And a movement.

This is for you if…

This is for you if…

The Lab is for aspiring and emerging leaders who want to grow their power without burning out their purpose. It’s for the firsts, onlys, and recovering overachievers. It’s for women of color who are ready to:

  • Lead without compromising their values

  • Rebuild confidence after toxic work culture

  • Find language for how they really want to lead

  • Build a support system of WOC changemakers

  • Show up with clarity, strategy, and care

If you’ve ever felt like “leadership” wasn’t made for you—you’re right.

That’s why we made this.
