“To get to the next level of greatness depends on the quality of our culture,
which depends on the quality of our relationships,
which depends on the quality of our conversations.
Everything happens through conversations!”
~ Conversational Intelligence
Welcome back to, ‘Your Choice’ where Tess and I offer free weekly leadership coaching and development right into your inbox, every Monday morning. We are grateful to be connected.
As we continue to focus on leveling up our conversational skills through raising our conversational intelligence (C-IQ), we know that building trust is the cornerstone to having good outcomes within every conversation. We practice this daily as leadership coaches. Our clients come to us with their greatest conversational challenges and their most exciting successes when leading others with their communication. When trust is established, we have the ability to flow in and thru all styles of conversations and trust that our good intentions will lead to good outcomes. The conversations are definitely not always easy, yet, they are built from a mutual respect and commitment to trust so we can indeed, trust the outcomes.
Hello March! We are grateful to be entering into this month with positive energy as TC&A focus’ on building TRUST in conversations.
Also, we are excited to be celebrating International Women’s History Month! TC&A has several events planned to support women in the workplace with our seminar, Know Your Genius / Know Your Worth. If, you are interested in hearing more, click here.
As we introduce the topic for this month, it is a topic that repeatedly comes up in the Leadership Coaching process -
Welcome back to ‘Your Choice’, TC&A’s weekly “free coaching” newsletter. It is our pleasure to bring our leadership coaching expertise, knowledge and hearts to you each Monday.
This year, one of our intentions is to share more stories! We have hundreds of client stories of resilience, transformation, promotions, career changes and massive mindset and energy shifts. Put simply, our clients have better outcomes and have become better humans since working with us – and it truly is our privilege to be on the journey with them. You may very well be one of our clients, we are grateful for you. And we are grateful to land in your inbox every Monday. Thank you for your trust.
TRUST is our 2025 word and it aligns with our interview with Denise Junqueiro. We imagine you were inspired by her story of her self-development, knowledge and growth last week. This week, we share more of her story on the video below. Our intention is for you to know you are supported and perhaps even intrigued to know more about the leadership coaching process.
“It is not always one big step, but a few steps forward.”

This week we have the pleasure of sharing parts of the transformational story of one of our original clients – Denise Junqueiro. Denise and Tess met in 2014 when she was a fellow attending the California Agriculture Leadership Foundation program. Tess was a part of restructuring the Ag Leadership learning and seminars and provided the Leadership Coaching for the program. In fact, Denise was a great support when Tess Cox & Associates was just beginning to launch the business.
We lead ourselves and our business by TRUSTING the foundation of our CHARACTER. As our client's learn to TRUST their own personal and professional integrity - they experience greater success by staying true to who they are AND through making decisions that are best for their organizations, teams and employees.
We're curious to know, "Do you have a word that is your focus for the 2025 New Year?"
YOU are Essential
Who you are … MATTERS. Allow this simple sentence to sink in. Who you are .... MATTERS.
Within the circles I follow and engage on social media from hospitality, leadership, self-development and self-care, fitness, healthy eating and inner peace – the theme of “valuing ourselves” and taking this time to recognize what we truly value, is a consistent message.
