Meet Your Coach

Amanda Escobedo is a transformational coach and leadership strategist specializing in high-stakes growth, personal evolution, and purpose-driven leadership.

In a world of accelerating change and AI-driven systems, management is being automated — but leadership can’t be. True impact comes from inspiring people, unlocking potential, and leading with purpose. As AI reshapes workflows and automates tasks, the workforce is evolving — but leadership will never be obsolete. AI can optimize systems of accountability and generate insights, yet only leaders can see the human story behind the data, make ethical decisions aligned with purpose, and inspire teams to navigate uncertainty and drive meaningful progress. Leaders are the visionaries who gain clarity on complex problems, identify opportunities to serve humanity, and unite brilliant minds to generate innovative solutions. By inspiring purpose and aligning teams to move forward together, leaders ensure businesses deliver products and services that solve real challenges and create lasting impact.

At Empowerhouse, we guide technically brilliant professionals — from tech leads and frontline engineering managers to executives — through transformational shifts that elevate their leadership, their business, and their lives. Because leading in an AI-driven world requires more than technical expertise; it demands emotional intelligence, conscious communication, and a commitment to human-centered leadership. We help leaders integrate data-driven decision-making with intuitive intelligence, ensuring every choice considers both performance and people.

Our leadership development programs support:

  • Emerging Leaders – Tech Leads or high-performing individual contributors stepping into leadership for the first time, building foundational mindsets and skills to lead others with confidence.

  • Frontline Managers – Leaders managing teams day-to-day, ready to elevate from task oversight to inspiring, empowering, and developing people.

  • Executives – Senior leaders shaping culture, navigating complexity, and making high-stakes decisions with clarity and integrity.

Whether you’re building your first engineering team, managing complex aerospace projects, or leading a scaling startup, Empowerhouse helps you develop the inspired leadership essential for the future of work.

proven success

"As an executive, it was humbling to realize how much inner dialogue can impact confidence, especially in dynamic relationships and business development. Through our work, I've learned how to stay present and focused--whether I'm leading at work or navigating complex priorities at home. I no longer let everything hit at once; I know how to stay in the moment, problem-solve what's in front of me, and save the rest for when it's time to act.

One of the biggest shifts? I've stopped carrying the weight of it all, all the time. I'm showing up with more clarity, energy, and intention. If you're looking for a coach who helps you tune into your wisdom and activate your full potential--Amanda is exceptional."
