Hi, I am Dr. Damira Grady-Saffold.

I’m not here to impress you with titles. I’m here to tell the truth.

I am a licensed professional counselor, executive coach, culture strategist, and truth-teller committed to building spaces where healing is not only allowed, it is expected. I lead transformative work rooted in equity, belonging, and strategic restoration. But more than any role, I am someone who shows up in community. Not above it.

My work is personal because I’ve lived what I now help others move through. Whether I am supporting an executive navigating burnout, facilitating a restorative circle in a workplace that has lost its way, or holding space for a client working through grief, trauma, or imposter syndrome, my approach is the same. Grounded. Real. Unafraid.

I believe that healing is the strategy.

That means I don’t separate personal growth from leadership. I don’t treat culture-building as an HR task. And I don’t believe you have to trade your wellness for your ambition. You can have both. In fact, you need both to lead and live fully.

I work with individuals and organizations who are ready to stop performing wellness and start practicing it. My offerings include 1:1 therapy for adults in Wisconsin, personalized coaching for leaders who want to lead with integrity and sustainability, and workplace strategy for teams ready to build culture that actually lives up to their mission.

My foundation is community, and my compass is justice.

So, whether you meet me in a boardroom, on a Zoom call, or in a circle of chairs with no hierarchy in sight, know this; what I do is rooted in care, loving accountability, and the belief that transformation is always possible when we do it together.
