LEADS Launchpad
From Student to Entrepreneurial Leader
Hi, I’m Dr. Valerie Woo. I created the LEADS Launchpad because I wish I had something like this when I was starting out. You’ll learn the five core foundations of leadership, entrepreneurship, and life in a way that’s simple, practical, and actionable.
Why This Course Exists
When I started my first business, I was fresh out of dental school. I had the degree, the ambition, and the dream… but no roadmap.
No one had taught me how to turn a vision into a real plan. I was figuring out everything... leadership, systems, even money, all on the fly. And while I learned a lot along the way, I made plenty of mistakes that I wish I could go back and save my younger self from.
That’s why the idea for LEADS Launchpad came to life.
It started when my daughter began asking big questions in her undergrad:
- How do I figure out my purpose?
- Where do I even start if I want to be an entrepreneur?
- How do I manage school, work, and still have a life?
I realized she, and so many other students, were where I once was: full of potential, eager to learn, but missing a simple structure to pull it all together.
LEADS Launchpad is the course I wish existed when I was in college.

It’s not a textbook. It’s not theory. It’s a practical, student-friendly roadmap built around the five foundations I wish I had known earlier:
Lead with Vision so you know where you’re headed.
Empower Yourself & Others so you’re not doing it alone.
Attract Opportunities by showing up and building connections.
Develop Systems so you can work smarter, not harder.
Sustain Yourself so you don’t burn out before you even begin.
This course gives you the tools, activities, and a step-by-step framework to launch with confidence—whether that’s a side hustle, a future career, or simply the life you want to create.
I built LEADS Launchpad so students like you don’t have to piece it all together the hard way. Because your big ideas deserve a clear starting point—and you deserve a roadmap that works in real life.
