About Me

Pascale Brady, CPCC, PCC, MBA, is the founder and president of The Challenge Coach®, a business and life coaching business based in Gaithersburg, Maryland. With more than 20 years of coaching experience and over 3,500 hours coaching individuals, teams and groups, Pascale helps clients navigate complicated personal and professional challenges with greater clarity, courage, and confidence. Her work is grounded in Adlerian psychology and draws on a deep understanding of human behavior, relational dynamics, and communication. She works with executives, professionals, and individuals on challenges ranging from leadership and conflict to life transitions and resilience — and is a sought-after speaker and workshop facilitator on those same themes. Before founding The Challenge Coach in 2005, Pascale spent 12 years as an international sales and marketing executive across Europe, the U.S., and Asia. She holds credentials from both the International Coaching Federation (PCC) and the Co-Active Training Institute (CPCC), along with an MBA from a premier French business school, Audencia. She works fluently in English, French, and German, and brings a distinctly international perspective to everything she does.
