Wendy Wallbridge

Wendy Walbridge’s unique approach to holistic leadership was born out of a personal health crisis: her diagnosis with life threatening Lupus and subsequent kidney transplant, early in what would have been a traditionally successful but not soul-satisfying career. Faced with her own mortality and what felt like her body’s rejection of a life that didn’t light her up, Wendy dove head first into exploring what it meant for women to live in alignment with their values, feminine wisdom, and unique calling—healing herself and rewriting the roadmap to success in the process.

A strong and vocal advocate for women, a pioneer in the coaching field, and a rare talent for creating cultures of belonging, Wendy is uniquely positioned to help modern 21st century leaders tap the full potential of their diverse workforce, co-create effectively and lead through the constantly evolving landscape. She’s the founder of Spiral Up and the Women's Evolutionary Leadership Forum of Silicon Valley, the Producer of TEDxSandHillRdWomen and the award-winning author of Spiraling Upward The 5 Co-Creative Powers of Women on The Rise. She has spoken at the UC Berkeley Haas School of Business, the Professional Business Women's Conference, the TX and PA Conferences for Women, Women In Technology International and TEDx. She has been profiled by Fortune Magazine, Fast Company, the San Francisco Chronicle, The Huffington Post and the New York Times. She is also on the Advisory Board for TEDxMarin. is based on the principles she has developed and presented for the past decade to groups of women entrepreneurs, middle managers, individual contributors, and executives.
