Leadership is a journey – one best traveled with clarity, courage, and connection.

Personalized coaching for leaders who want to gain clarity, build confidence, and grow their influence. Whether you’re navigating a new role, facing challenges with your team, or simply seeking to become the best version of yourself, I walk alongside you to help you reach your goals.

Who is Dena Johnson?

I’m a nurse by training and a leader by calling. Throughout my career in healthcare, I was often thrust into leadership roles without preparation—an experience that sparked my passion for helping others step confidently into leadership.


With years of frontline nursing experience and a Master’s in Coaching, I now dedicate my work to equipping organizations with the tools they need to thrive. I use frameworks like the 5 Voices to help leaders clarify their vision, take ownership, and build relationships that create lasting impact.

I am also deeply passionate about encouraging and supporting single moms. Having walked that journey myself, I know the resilience it takes—and I love helping other women see their own strength, pursue their goals, and build a future full of possibility.
At heart, I’m a nurturer—passionate about people, purpose, and creating environments where both caregivers and patients flourish.
