Who I Am

At the heart of Lead & Layer is a simple belief: life is a journey, and the story of our lives isn’t about the education we receive, the number of hours we work, the money we earn, or the things we have. It’s about the people in our lives. It’s about the process. It’s about intention, gratitude and the way every layer of care we give ourselves and others, enriches our lives.  In this space I can share stories, lessons, laughs, creative outlets, spiritual beliefs, organizational tips, leadership, recipes and more. This is my real-life joy – Lead & Layer by Tina.

My Journey

  • Spent over a decade in clinical leadership, mentoring others

  • Dealt with my own medical health to learn life changing habits and behaviors for lasting change.  

  • Deepened my passion for skin health through experience and lots of trial and error.

  • Found real joy in sewing, wood art and DIY projects as a way to integrate creativity in my world.

  • Simple gratitude rituals—meditation, dance & thank-you notes—for daily joy

  • Learned family and the people we love are the only things in our lives we cannot replace – yes this includes our fur babies.

  • Launched Lead & Layer to bring my love for people, crafts, wellness, and authentic connection to life

My Philosphy

Lead & Layer works because it’s honest. It’s not just about what I do—it’s about how I do it: with integrity, gratitude, and commitment. Whether I am helping someone to strategize, mentoring a new leader or writing about my own wellness journey, my mission stays the same; to help you lead with purpose and layer your life with care.

I find real-life joy in crafting, skincare, health, and family. Lead & Layer is where those worlds meet—where clinical expertise blends with creativity, and leadership is always layered with humanity.
