About

About Georgia

Hello, I am Georgia and I believe that a seed is just a seed, until you plant it. It’s still just a seed until you water it and give it sunshine. It’s still just a wet seed until the roots start to sprout and dig down deep while the new growth reaches high above the dirt and finds its own oxygen and its own sunshine. Like a seed, being a leader starts from the inside. Let’s plant the seeds of leadership. Let’s dig into you and your team, teach and inspire, so we grow together. There is always a place to grow. Right here! Right Now! Let’s sow some soil.

True change starts from the inside out. It happens when you have those tiny Epiphical (from Georgia’s dictionary) Moments that take you from where you are now to a new place, new mindset, that you didn’t know existed. That moment where new ideas just click and we start to think ever so slightly different. We write down a new thought which leads to a new idea which leads to a healed wound or an apology. It leads to a hug or a handshake. It leads to a smile or a new invention. Leadership is strong when we lead to guide. Change brings new life, growth and new found happiness. It brings excitement and love! Great moments in your life, business and relationships come from change.

“You gotta sit in the dirt to grow your roots.” Georgia Vanderville

From Breakdown to Breakthrough: What Happens When You Stop Waiting and Start Deciding

Every breakthrough begins with a decision.

As leaders, we all face moments when waiting feels safer than acting. Sometimes that hesitation costs far more than we ever imagined.

In this engaging and interactive session, award-winning manufacturing entrepreneur Georgia Vanderville shares the true story of a supplier breakdown that challenged her business—and the unexpected lesson it taught about leadership, confidence, and trusting yourself before certainty arrives.

Through authentic storytelling, practical leadership insights, humor, and a memorable audience experience, you’ll discover why confidence isn’t something you find before taking action—it’s something you build because you do.

Whether you’re leading a production team, a project, or your own career, you’ll leave with practical tools to recognize hesitation sooner, make stronger decisions under pressure, and confidently raise your paddle when opportunity calls.

The Sum of The 5 People Closest To You

The 5 people closest to you should be easy to find. Look on social media or next to you at work. But, is there something more? Are those people really the pool you’re fishing from? Look around you. Notice who is there and why. Then, learn to spot, understand, love and appreciate your number one person closest to you.
