ABOUT PBMI
AND THE POWERFUL WOMEN BEHIND IT
We’re not here to fix you.
We’re here to guide you back to your power.
At PBMI, we reject the recycled mindset tactics that keep women spinning their wheels.
Instead, we teach self-leadership through a science-backed, embodiment-driven system that actually works.
Why we’re different:
We blend embodied cognition practices with cognitive coaching.
-
We emphasize radical personal responsibility — no blame, no external validation.
-
We foster a collective for women and coaches, where both can thrive.
-
We challenge societal norms, inspiring women to own their power — not borrow it.

Founder | Lead Strategist
Trudy Tabler, BCC,
PhD Candidate
Trudy Tabler is a force of nature who refuses to let women play small. With over a decade of expertise in human behavior, motivation, and leadership, she founded the Powerful Beyond Measure Institute (PBMI) to help women reclaim their power and lead themselves—without apology.
A former Master Instructor of Cosmetology turned leadership expert, Trudy’s unconventional journey fuels her passion and grit. Her beauty industry background taught her psychology, communication, and the deep craving women have for owning their worth—lessons she transformed into a Master’s in Executive Leadership, Board Certification in Coaching, and a Six Sigma Yellow Belt.
Now completing her PhD in Social Psychology, Trudy is researching self-efficacy, accountability, and resilience—work that shapes PBMI’s science-backed, soul-centered coaching approach.
At PBMI, she’s more than a coach; she’s a guide for women ready to lead themselves—without the BS. Her approach is as authentic as it is transformative, helping women rise from the inside out.
