In this insightful episode of Founders, Future, host Mishal Saeed sits down with Lindsay Preston, PCC—founder of the leadership development company TLC—to unpack how she's reimagining coaching for sustainable, high-impact results. With over 830 leaders coached and a 92% client success rate, Lindsay reveals what’s driving TLC’s growth, why she’s moving from solopreneur to scaling visionary, and how authenticity meets execution in today’s leadership landscape.
Lindsay opens up about the intentional systems behind TLC’s client success, the power of integrating coaching into sales conversations, and the challenges of shifting away from relationship-heavy sales into a more structured, efficient model. She also shares how gender dynamics, hormone cycles, and personal evolution shape her leadership style—and why building a sustainable business means honoring your energy as much as your ambition.
From marketing bottlenecks and brand awareness to preparing future leaders before promotion, Lindsay’s approach is grounded, data-driven, and refreshingly real. She pulls back the curtain on building a business that supports both the people behind it and the leaders it serves.
