Stress Physiologist, Author, TedX Speaker and Start-up School Founder Dr. Rebecca Heiss Launches The Leap: A Network for Women to Thrive

Stress physiologist, Author, TedX speaker and start-up school founder Rebecca Heiss PhD has launched The Leap, an inclusive digital networking platform for women offering educational credits, webinars, and live speakers to support women of all backgrounds in their chosen careers through common challenges, including stress and anxiety, imposter syndrome and boundary setting.

Bringing together high achieving professionals under a digital networking umbrella, The Leap offers members a small group onboarding and coaching experience designed to meet the needs of high achieving female professionals in the areas of business, health and wellness and family and relationships.

“Life happens in leaps. We graduate, get our first job, get promoted, become girlfriends, partners, wives, mothers, CEOs, presidents, entrepreneurs, divorcees, widowers, grandparents, retirees….and we want to be there to support it all,” says Heiss. “As professional leaders, moms and entrepreneurs, we are strong independently, but unstoppable together,” she adds.

Education and development is an ongoing process and The Leap is committed to delivering continuously updated courses, webinars, and live speakers in digestible formats to meet the needs of the professional woman.

As part of its membership, each individual is selectively placed into a carefully curated small group composed of approximately 12 other professional women from around the world. The Leap offers them a six-week onboarding course, The Fearless Accelerator, which teaches stress and anxiety management, how to navigate fear and imposter syndrome, and gives women the tools and permission to discover their authentic selves again. Additionally, members will have access to six weeks of live coaching sessions resulting in high trust bonds between the women in each cohort where issues can be processed and resolutions found. This experience sets the tone for engagement in the larger community.

The Leap is recognized by SHRM to offer Professional Development Credits (PDCs) for SHRM-CP® or SHRM-SCP®.
