Leigh

Leigh is the co-founder of Numa Wellness, a human-first organization devoted to guiding individuals and organizations through deep personal transformation, regenerative leadership, and intentional community-building. His mission is to restore wholeness in how we lead and live through the power of connection. The work bridges ancient wisdom and modern science to support leaders who are ready to embody purpose and presence to make a profound impact.

With a background that spans high-stakes financial markets, shamanic practice, and somatic healing modalities like breathwork and sound, Leigh brings a grounded, multidimensional approach to wellness and leadership. He believes that the way we think, act, and relate to others ultimately shapes the reality we live in and that internal alignment is the foundation for ethical influence and collective thriving.

Leigh’s track record in finance at BGC Partners dismantles the myth that success and achievement require sacrificing self, kindness, or soul. He teaches that authenticity, vulnerability, and connection are not only compatible with leadership but rather the cornerstones of cultures that truly flourish.

In a world that’s increasingly fast, disconnected, and transactional, Leigh invites us to return to what makes us most human: our relationships, our values, and our capacity to lead from love.
