Nailah Blades is a leadership coach and consultant who helps leaders tap into their power to build personal and professional lives that are whole, good, and full of possibility. She is the founder of Color Outside, a community for Black, Indigenous, and women of color who are ready to create unapologetic, soul-stirring lives through outdoor adventure. Through high-touch coaching that integrates the outdoors, Nailah teaches her clients how to go from languishing to flourishing in every area of their lives.

Her work centers on the belief that when we stand in the truth of our authentic selves, we can live and lead in a way that creates real change in our world. When she's not coaching or speaking, you can find her hiking with her husband or playing intense games of hide-and-go-seek with her two young kids.
