Psychologist, Author, Keynote Speaker, and Confidence Coach for Women
about dr. kasi lacey
Today, I help women rewrite their own narrative - whether moms, executives, supervisors, or partners - by building the kind of unshakable confidence that changes not just careers, but lives.
I entered this world with limited resources, navigated life with a non-apparent biracial identity, moved out on my own at 16, and earned my Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology just ten years later. Along the way, I became a mom to two strong, independent daughters - my greatest motivation to make the world better for women.
I’ve broken glass ceilings, earned seats at tables that weren’t built for women like me, and led with both heart and strategy in complex, high-pressure environments. That journey also took me through more than 15 years in higher education leadership.
From the boardroom to the classroom to 1:1 coaching calls, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside incredible women - helping them find their voice and own their power.
When I say I built this, I mean it.
the woman behind the work
trusted by Leaders, CEOs, HR, Event Planners, and Organizations
If you’re feeling stuck, undervalued, or unsure of your next step, I'm here to help you make your
confidence comeback.
With over 15 years as a psychologist and executive leader, I don’t just offer surface-level strategies. My approach blends evidence-based psychology with practical leadership coaching to help you uncover and shift the deep-rooted patterns that keep you stuck.
You won’t get cookie-cutter advice here.
Instead, I work with high-achieving women who are ready to reclaim their voice, navigate toxic work environments, overcome imposter syndrome, and lead with authenticity. Through our work, we’ll build self-awareness, challenge limiting beliefs, and develop actionable strategies that align with your values and strengths.
What sets this experience apart is my ability to see both who you are and what you’re capable of becoming.
Leadership Coaching Backed by Psychology and Lived Experience
You’ll walk away with more than just confidence - you’ll lead from a place of clarity, courage, and
unapologetic power.
I started at Austin College, a small liberal arts school, for my undergrad, then headed to Texas Tech University to earn my PhD in Counseling Psychology.
my schooling
I’ve worked everywhere from a cancer center hospital to community mental health agencies, counseling clinics, and college campuses. In other words: I’ve seen people at their most human, and learned what actually helps.
my work life
I’m endlessly curious about leadership, workplace psychology, equity and inclusion, relationships, change, and what helps people truly thrive.
my passions
I’ve spoken at conferences, companies, corporations, nonprofits, fraternities and sororities, and community events, and am known for talks that are engaging, grounded, and actually stick.
