Since 2016, I’ve worked with more than 500 solopreneurs, entrepreneurs, and brands. From alignment and clarity coaching to strategy and storytelling, I’ve helped every single client cut through the noise to make room for the life and the work that need to emerge.
I’ve spent decades earning the types of degrees and skills that still make mom proud, but the biggest truth I’ve discovered in my nearly 50 years on this earth is that everything I do boils down to my ability to do three things well...
1.
Show up with love
And not the woo-woo kind of love, either. I'm talking about the self-sacrificing, going-to-the-mattresses kind of love that believes wholeheartedly in that ancient maxim ~ first shall be last and last shall be first.
2.
lead with grace
Because when you do this first, you create space for others to show up as 100% real. Grace prioritizes forgiveness and understanding, mercy and love, and there's no other world I wish to live in than the one that's been colored by the power of grace.

3.
Examine everything
No question is off limits, and no question is ever too big. Truth is never afraid to be challenged and sifted, so you'll never see me run away from hard-to-reconcile ideas. Instead, I'll embrace the wrestling because it's here in the close-up examination where the greatest growth always happens.

Meet Lindsay Hotmire, Certified narrative strategist
Since 2016, I’ve worked with more than 500 solopreneurs, entrepreneurs, and brands. From alignment and clarity coaching to message strategy and storytelling,
I’ve helped every single client cut through the noise to make room for the message that needs to emerge.
I’ve spent decades earning the types of degrees and skills that still make mom proud, but the biggest truth I’ve discovered in my nearly 50 years on this earth is that everything I do boils down to my ability to do three things well...
"I'm where I'm at today because I worked with you. You were like a Sherpa, guiding me to my own personal Everest. You walked beside me and helped me co-create a new narrative for my story in my work, in my business, and in my life. "

The Inside/Out Method
Our work together isn't just about clarity of thought. It's about clarity of action, too.
Using the proven tools of story, narrative intelligence, and culture theory, The Inside/Out Method invites you to see old stories with new perspectives, and it gives you the tools to expand those stories into your most powerful leverage for personal and professional growth.
Because this isn't a coaching "program," I don't fit you into a prescribed curriculum or a step-by-step system. This is HUMAN-FIRST coaching that makes space for the head, the heart, and all the unique aspects of your lived experience. This is how true change manifests, and it's how you can be certain that the growth you experience will be long-lasting and transformative.
THAT SAID, HERE ARE A FEW TOOLS WE MAY USE TOGETHER
THICKENING THE STORYLINE
FIND WHAT'S SACRED
CLARIFY AND TEST YOUR WORLDVIEW
INSIDE VERSUS OUTSIDE STORIES
REDEMPTIVE TIMELINE
OUTSIDER WITNESS
JOHARI WINDOW
THEMATIC ANALYSIS
The Inside/Out Method always starts with YOU. It honors the story you've lived, and it doesn't believe that your most distinctive parts can ever be summed up with letters, numbers, or the newest personality profile.
When you are clear and confident on how all the parts of you are showing up and working both for or against you, we'll dive into the outside realm ~ the goals and dreams you have, your vision, your social structures, your team, your audience, and more.
Whether you're a brand leader trying to build a brand, a leader trying to lead a team, or a professional trying to grow and pivot, the Inside/Out Method invites your strongest self to step forward.
My clients have used the Inside/Out Method to create new businesses, to define their cultures, to position their brands, to grow their revenue, and (most importantly) to confidently define who they are and how they're called to impact the world.

Here are a couple of things you should know about me, friend!
I’ve played piano since I was 8 years old and secretly wish I had become an opera singer. In fact, I’ve convinced myself that if writing had not found me first, I’d be traveling the world, giving all the Pavarotti-sound-a-likes a run for their money. (Of course, all the patrons would need to be tone-deaf to appreciate my singing skills.)

I once found a 4-karat diamond ring that had been lost in the sand. The woman who had lost it had surrendered to despair, and although I didn’t know her, I knew I couldn’t let her give up. I crouched down and dug through the hot Bahamian sand, searching for any glimmer of gold or diamond. “It’s lost forever,” she kept saying. Twenty minutes later, I proved her wrong. I knew determination would win the day. It almost always does.

Ready to find strategic momentum?
As a brand identity and culture consultant, I don't use one-size-fits-all approaches to burn and churn out clients.
I'm relationships-first because I believe that the best results only come from taking the time to truly connect who you are to what you do.
I work with a small number of clients each year, and if you'd like to see what working together might look like, jump on my calendar and let's talk.
