certified professional coach
The Founder of Restful Leadership, Dr. Stacey Ault (she, her, dr) MSW PPSC CPC, is a Board Certified Coach (BCC) through the Center for Credentialing Education. She received her post-graduate coaching training through the College of Executive Coaching, where she was provided with a personal self-discovery process to increase her own self-awareness—a fundamental element of personal mastery, emotional intelligence, and coaching presence—as well as specific knowledge, skills, confidence, and practice coaching with a straightforward, easy-to-use four-step coaching model, combined with top coaching assessment tools.
In addition, Dr. Ault is a member of the International Coaching Federation (ICF), the leading global organization dedicated to advancing the coaching profession by setting high standards, providing independent certification, and building a worldwide network of credentialed coaches.
Dr. Ault's scholarship lives in the intersection of liberatory leadership and rest. She researches, writes, and speaks about the trauma and growth of Black women navigating schools and workplaces. As a burnout survivor who was burned through by decades of inside: outside change making within multiple institutions, Dr. Stacey has learned to prioritize her own wellbeing and rest, while she works to achieve her life's purpose. She is a recovering perfectionist that has had to unlearn all of the internal narratives that contribute to her overwork. Her organization, The Race and Gender Equity (RAGE) Project is a nonprofit, social impact organization that works to advance the wellbeing of Black youth locally and around the globe. RAGE provides an infrastructure of support for individuals looking to create change, through pillars of healing, education, advocacy and research.
