ACT
Activate Your Potential with the ESA Growth Model
Acknowledge and honor your past experiences—including your struggles—as sources of strength. Embracing your full story is the first step toward shifting your mindset, owning your narrative, and unlocking growth.
Build upon your existing strengths while turning challenge areas into opportunities for development. Strengthening your mindset means doing the work to grow emotionally, mentally, and professionally—especially when it’s hard.
Transformation requires action. Set intentional, attainable goals that align with your values and define what prosperity means to you. Then take bold, strategic steps forward—because without action, vision is just a dream.
The ESA Growth Model is an evidence-based framework that empowers individuals—and the organizations that support them—to build a culture of purpose, clarity, and accountability. Developed by The Flentroy Morris Group, the model guides people at all levels to EMBRACE their story, STRENGTHEN their mindset, and ACT with intention.
Rooted in research and real-world experience, ESA was designed to help historically underrepresented individuals—especially women and people of color—overcome internal and external barriers like imposter syndrome, misalignment, and burnout. Today, it serves as a tool for everyone navigating personal and professional growth, helping teams and leaders foster inclusive, high-performing environments.
Whether you’re leading a company, a team, or your own career, the ESA Model offers a clear path to unlock potential, inspire authenticity, and drive aligned action.
Take the free ESA Assessment to discover where you are on your growth journey—and how you can activate your next step forward.

"What if we were transparent about our own failures, not as some kind of performative vulnerability, but as an invitation to collectively de-stigmatize the messy process of lifelong learning?"
- Rachael Alaia
