Dreamer. Deep Thinker. Different.
Our vision is to see coaches, former college athletes, and driven leaders everywhere experiencing spiritual, emotional, and physical wholeness so they keep going strong.
New to Jill?
Jill is a dreamer. A deep thinker. And, as you can probably tell by the image above, she is different.
While that is not a picture of her as a child, it certainly could be. Card board boxes and duct tape were—and still are—a staple resource for her.
“Wake up from your slumber. Open up your eyes. Stop complaining, stop self-serving, stop dusting yourself with Tinkerbell’s magic for temporary flight. Wake up from your slumber and walk forever in the light.”
-Jill Williams
Dear friend,
It’s important that the first thing you hear from me is that I do not have answers for you. I do not have answers for your staff. And I really don’t have answers for any staff you struggle to lead.
None of our MettlEdge team have answers for you.
What we do have for you is a powerful belief in you.
We have seen what happens when people stop striving long enough to let the dust settle and take a look around.
They think better.
They make better choices.
They move them forward toward the things that matter most to them because they get straighted out on the inside.
And they are better.
MettlEdge is in the hospitality business. While we don't serve food, we do create inviting environments catering to your comfort so you know you are in a safe place where you can let down your guard to be real, to be enjoyed, and to be better.
It is my job…
and the job of our MettlEdge team, to host you in conversations that shine a light on the answers you already know in your gut. They are there.
You are intelligent, capable, and human. You have personal values and beliefs. Being human makes you susceptible to getting your values and beliefs mixed up in the current of life.
It’s okay. We know whatever you have experienced, are currently experiencing, or will experience will contribute to refining your innate uniqueness. You are a dreamer, as well. You are capable of thinking beyond to discover more. And you are different, made to walk and work in your own way. Walk in it with joy.
When teams of unique dreamers and thinkers come together with excellence, authenticity, and joy, they accomplish more than they can imagine.
Here’s the deal…
in the world of sports, people have continuously broken barriers, shattered records, and defied expectations. The path to success is paved with perseverance, dedication, and a relentless pursuit of excellence. Only recently have the human costs of this pursuit been brought to the surface on a larger scale. But for those of us who have had the blessing of competing at a high level, we’ve been shaped by what we’ve experienced, working through our successes and scars in one way or another.
As a former D1 athlete…
I can personally attest to the internal struggle many face in their pursuit of excellence. It is a struggle that is typically hidden behind a facade of strength for fear that vulnerability might undermine perceived competence. It is a struggle for which many seek guidance and support, but they want that guidance and support to come from people who they trust. And finding those people can be hard.
We tend to trust people who have been in our shoes, who understand our powerful drive for excellence, our innate desire to keep going strong, and our real fear of who we might be if we do not perform. We also tend to trust people who both challenge and enjoy us; people who lead us to the best solutions, not the easiest ones.
As for you…
If this is what you are looking for, you’ve found it. We are here to come alongside you to help you infuse your excellence with endurance. We want to co-develop an exceptional class of leaders prepared to tackle the complexities of our modern world and create cultures that promote personal growth, maximize performance outcomes, create a sense of belonging and purpose, and enhance overall well-being for teams, communities, and families.
We want all kinds of high achieving dreamers to keep going strong with a sound mind that nourishes and sustains their unique MettlEdge.
To start…
I wanted to give you a peek into my brain so you know from the start we do not give you answers. We host conversations to give you agency so you persevere with excellence, authenticity, and joy.
Sincerely,
Jill
