Bridgette and Rachael first connected through executive search. The connection was immediate, but not because of Bridgette's professional background. It was because of who she was. The way she listened. The way she used her voice. Her warmth. Her curiosity. Her presence. Her ability to create trust almost immediately.
They had barely known one another when an opportunity arose to work together. As soon as business allowed, Bridgette flew to Florida to co-facilitate HiveSTRONG's inaugural board retreat. She stayed in Rachael's condo during the trip. That decision required enormous mutual trust. It also reflected something deeper.
Bridgette did not join a mature company. She stepped into Hive while it was still being created. She was present through the earliest chapters. The uncertainty. The impossible decisions. The unexpected opportunities. The rapid growth. The pivots. The moments no one could have predicted.
Throughout those early years she consistently brought trust, grace, curiosity, wisdom, steadiness, humor, and light. She became both a trusted business partner and a trusted friend.
Her ability to balance strategy with humanity helped shape not only client relationships but the culture and leadership philosophy of Hive itself.
She is every bit a co-founder. She has been part of Hive from the beginning. She helped shape its language, its leadership, its relationships, its values, its client experience, its culture, and its DNA.
Today, as Chief Client Officer, she leads executive partnerships, client strategy, relationship development, leadership experiences, organizational transformation, talent architecture, executive search, and Values2Vision.
Every aspect of her work reflects one central belief: helping people and organizations recognize more possibility in themselves than they previously imagined.

Bridgette's perspective comes from understanding human performance through multiple dimensions. Competitive athletics taught discipline, resilience, preparation, and grit. Executive search taught her to recognize potential before others see it. Organizational leadership taught her how trust and talent determine whether transformation succeeds. Her work as a vocal artist taught her that voice is identity, courage, expression, and truth. Mindfulness and sound healing deepened her understanding of regulation, resilience, recovery, and human connection. These are not separate careers. Together they form one philosophy: helping people become more aligned, more connected, and more fully themselves.
After the inaugural HiveSTRONG retreat, Bridgette and Rachael were sitting together on the balcony at The Refuge overlooking the ocean. Bridgette looked over and asked, 'Do you want a job?' Rachael laughed and answered, 'No. I want more clients.' Within twenty-four hours Hive secured what became its largest enterprise client to date. Neither of them knew what was about to unfold. What they did know was that they worked extraordinarily well together. That moment became one of the defining stories of Hive's early years, not because it was symbolic, but because it reflected the trust, intuition, and partnership already forming between them.
“People already possess extraordinary potential. Leadership is about helping them recognize it, trust it, and expand into it. Everything she does, from executive advisory and recruiting to organizational transformation, Values2Vision, vocal artistry, mindfulness, meditation, sound healing, and executive coaching, is simply a different expression of that same purpose.”
