IN-DEPTH BIO: Leila Jones is the author of “Unpacking My Boxes: A Projector’s Journey Home,” a groundbreaking memoir that combines personal storytelling with the transformational lens of Quantum Human Design™. Her work bridges the gap between personal healing and professional leadership, offering a roadmap for those who feel boxed in by societal expectations, workplace roles, or inherited identities. Through her company VelaMira, Leila helps individuals and teams realign with who they truly are — and how they’re uniquely designed to lead.
A Certified Quantum Human Design™ Specialist through Karen Parker’s program, Leila is also the creator of the Discover Your Path™ framework, a tool for leadership alignment that guides teams through a process of energetic awareness, emotional intelligence, and authentic collaboration. She will present this framework as a featured speaker at the 2025 International Human Design Conference in Colorado Springs.
Before launching her coaching and consulting business, Leila spent more than a decade managing large-scale federal government contracts in technical project management. She led cross-functional teams, navigated high-stakes deadlines, and delivered mission-critical results in environments that often demanded long hours, emotional suppression, and personal sacrifice. That experience, while formative, became the catalyst for her transformation.
As a Projector in Human Design, Leila came to understand that she wasn’t broken — just misaligned. She began to recognize how deeply modern work structures favor certain energy Types while depleting others. Her personal journey of burnout, boundary-breaking, divorce, and self-reclamation became the heart of “Unpacking My Boxes,” a memoir that invites readers to examine the emotional, cultural, and professional containers they've accepted — and offers a way out.
Leila holds a bachelor’s degree in biochemistry from the University of Denver, where she remains actively involved in the university’s Alumni Women in STEM and leadership development initiatives. She is especially passionate about working with high-achieving women and professionals of color who are navigating transitions and seeking a more integrated way to live and lead. Her honors and affiliations include New Mexico Business Weekly 40 Under 40 recipient, former president of Albuquerque Independent Business Alliance, former board member of the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO) New Mexico Chapter, and co-founder of WriterGal Network.
Today, through VelaMira, Leila offers team transformation consulting, 1:1 seeker-leader coaching, and workshops for mission-driven organizations. Her work centers on three key pillars: energetic alignment, emotional literacy, and psychologically safe environments. Whether guiding a corporate team through energetic rebalancing or coaching a leader out of burnout, Leila meets each client with precision, presence, and compassion.
Her style is warm yet grounded, spiritual yet strategic — making her a powerful voice at the intersection of business, healing, and conscious leadership. She is a frequent guest on podcasts covering emotional intelligence, energy work, DEI, and work-life transformation.
