Hi,
I’m Leslie
I'm an Executive Coach and the founder of BUFFnation, where BUFF stands for Beautiful. Unique. Fearless. Female.
For years, I believed that the answer was to work harder, push through, and keep proving myself. Like so many women, I thought discipline meant ignoring my own needs.
Hi,

I'm an Executive Coach and the founder of BUFFnation, where BUFF stands for Beautiful. Unique. Fearless. Female.
For years, I believed that the answer was to work harder, push through, and keep proving myself. Like so many women, I thought discipline meant ignoring my own needs.
But over time, I learned something that changed everything:
Lasting health isn't built through perfection. It's built through self-trust, sustainable habits, and the courage to keep showing up.
That's the philosophy behind BUFFnation.
Today, I help women 40+ build strength, support their hormones, quiet the all-or-nothing mindset, and create a healthier relationship with themselves—one imperfect step at a time.
Because I don't believe you need another plan.
I believe you need support, community, and a way of caring for yourself that actually fits real life.
Now is your moment
to rise for yourself!
