What if leadership felt more like you?

Helping values-driven, ambitious leaders show up authentically—and lead with lasting impact.

Through the Forest Consulting coaches leaders, teams, and organizations committed to real, values-driven impact. We help you reconnect to your power, sustain your influence, and thrive—because when you do, the world gets better.

You lead in complexity, pressure, or burnout. You’re caught between who you are and what your role demands. I help you break through that dissonance, build trust, strengthen your team, and make bold, aligned decisions.

My coaching blends evidence-based frameworks, neuroscience, and eco-coaching wisdom to support sustainable growth — clearing the path, rooting into your potential, and growing toward what matters most.

About Through the Forest

A forest trail surrounded by tall trees and lush greenery, with a misty atmosphere.

I’m Nadia Allacas, founder of Through the Forest Consulting and an executive and leadership coach with over a decade of leadership and talent development experience. I specialize in helping leaders navigate toxic dynamics, burnout, and values misalignment. I work with leaders at all levels—from new managers to C-suite executives—across sectors including gaming, government, nonprofit, education, hospitality, real estate, and finance.

My coaching style balances warmth with challenge. I create space for reflection and practical action, helping clients shift mindsets, strengthen leadership, and make lasting impact.

Nature-Based Coaching Offerings

Our coaching integrates nature-based practices to amplify insight, clarity, and lasting change. Nature becomes a powerful co-partner in the process—whether we’re walking through the woods, sitting in a garden, or using nature-inspired techniques indoors.

This isn’t just about feeling grounded. It’s about getting better results. Coaching alone improves leadership performance by up to 70% (ICF). When paired with time in nature, leadership effectiveness increases by an additional 23% (European Journal of Training & Development). Nature-based coaching has also been shown to enhance wellbeing, creativity, and complex problem-solving—so let’s get off Zoom and get outside.

  • Testimonials

    "In my coaching sessions with Nadia, she held the space, listened, and allowed me to explore. She provided resources at opportune times. It’s a testament to her skill as a coach that the next steps I decided on in our sessions felt doable – and I did them! At all times, I felt respected and encouraged. An important professional goal that I imagined to be complicated and difficult to enact has become more clear in my mind, and I am now taking simple steps toward it."

  • Testimonial

    " I consider myself a highly rational person, and Nadia had the ability to create the safety for me to tap into my emotions in the very first session with her.  This may be normal for others, but it’s unusual for me, and I realized how skillfully Nadia quickly creates a safe space in a session, allowing me to quickly delve into root causes and parts of my life that affect my professional one. Nadia’s patience, quiet presence and gently probing questions help me explore deeper than I could by myself.  

    While focusing on me during a session, Nadia is also a human—and that warmth and relatability comes through in her expressions and presence, helping me to stop judging my own behaviours.  

    I’ve thoroughly enjoyed having Nadia as my coach, as it’s enabled me to push beyond my comfort zone and move forward through some tough challenges.”

    "Working with Nadia felt different from other coaching experiences because the insightful and powerful questions she asked helped me to get straight to the heart of my problem/situation. I was able to get closure on my issue by the end of each session with her, leaving with a clear plan of action and next steps, that I didn't feel the need to revisit that same topic in our next session. This is rare for me - I often leave coaching sessions with great ideas that fizzle out quickly.

    She really tuned into what I needed in the moment, leaving me feeling not only heard but also empowered to address the root cause of what I was working through. I had several a-ha moments in our time together that have stuck with me and continue to help me navigate my situations outside of the sessions. If you're considering coaching to support your professional or personal development, I can't recommend Nadia enough!”
