When Boundaries are Supported, Commitment Follows

In every organization, some people naturally take on more. They notice what matters and step in when it counts. When responsibility isn’t clear, that care turns into overextension. Focus suffers. Energy drains. Life outside of work starts to feel smaller.

Dana helps people get clear about what’s theirs to carry so work stays meaningful and life outside of work stays full. When people feel supported and balanced, work flows more easily, teams grow stronger, and organizations thrive over time.
