Spiral Up! A New Roadmap for Women: Wendy Wallbridge at TEDxSandHillRdWomen

Wendy Wallbridge, a pioneer in the coaching field, has earned a reputation for establishing breakthrough conversations that enhance the way women work, live, play, and contribute. Her singular brand of coaching, defined by her Spiral Up! Model, empowers women to become entrepreneurs of our own lives by following a radically different roadmap to success.

Diagnosed with life-threatening Lupus early in her career, Wendy used that adversity to explore what it means for women live true to our values, feminine wisdom, and unique calling. Wendy is recognized for her groundbreaking coaching techniques that enable women to become leaders and agents of change in the 21st century and to have lives that are more authentic, expansive, and meaningful. By living true to ourselves----by following the next "right" thing----we discover reserves of energy and power for ourselves and for changing the world for the better. The Spiral Up path unfolds in front of us.

A strong and vocal advocate for women, Wendy is the founder of Spiral Up, the Women's Evolutionary Leadership Forum of Silicon Valley, and On Your Mark Corporate Coaching & Consulting, Inc. She is a frequent speaker at venues such as UC Berkeley Haas School of Business, the Professional Business Women's Conference, The Commonwealth Club, and Women In Technology International and has been interviewed by Fortune Magazine, the San Francisco Chronicle, and the New York Times. In addition to being the producer of TEDxSandHillRdWomen, she is on the Executive Advisory Board for TEDxMarin. She is author of the forthcoming book, Spiral Up: A Woman's Roadmap to Success

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
