Not sure if you’re leading by design - or running on default?

Be a CEO by Design - not by default.

Identify revenue opportunities, cut unnecessary costs, and streamline your operations - so you can reach that $500K milestone faster.

I work with ambitious founders who are ready to grow with intention – scaling offers, building additional businesses, writing books, stepping onto bigger stages, and still making space for what matters most: family, faith, and the mission that drives it all.

For the high-performing business owner.

From the outside, it looks like you’ve got it all together.

Clients, revenue, results – you’ve worked hard to get here. But if we asked the people closest to your business, what would they say?

If we asked your team

They might say they’re pulled in too many directions.

If we asked your clients

They might say delivery feels rushed, even when results are strong.

If we asked your family

They might say you’re always “on” and rarely fully present.

Now, it’s more than goals or KPIs. It’s about integrating your mission into how you show up – as a business leader, a parent, a partner, and a member of your community.

Clarity. Alignment. Growth.​

A business that reflects the vision behind it.

You’re not just building revenue. You’re leading a mission – serving clients, creating opportunities, and building something that lasts.

That means you deserve:

This is what happens when you stop running on default and start leading by design.

Here’s how we can work together.

Three paths, depending on where your business is today.

Breakthrough Strategy Session

For founders who don’t know where to start. In one session, we’ll uncover your priorities, organize your next steps, and build a 90-day plan that cuts through the noise.

CEO by Design Intensive

For founders ready to step fully into the CEO role. Together, we’ll take a bird’s-eye view of your business, align your metrics, and make intentional shifts that move you toward your next $500K – or your first million.

OBM Services

For founders with a team who need strategic oversight. I make sure your big-picture strategy is translated into action – so your team stays aligned, accountable, and on track.

What clients are saying.

Clarity. Profitability. Peace of mind.

Authority matters.

You are who your numbers say you are.

And those numbers should reflect the business you’ve worked so hard to build.

Hey, I’m Desiree Silveira – most people call me Des.

I know what it’s like to pour your heart into serving clients and still feel frustrated when the effort doesn’t show up in the numbers. Teams work harder, but growth stalls. Founders push themselves, but the mission doesn’t translate into profitability.

Over the last five years, I’ve worked with six- and seven-figure founders across industries. Every time, there’s been hidden opportunity: a system to streamline, a metric to track, a strategy to refine.

That’s the work I love – helping you translate vision into clarity, profitability, and joy. Because my mission is to see you reach yours.
