Meet The HR Misfits
Ami Graves

Part HR executive, part entrepreneur, part people-first leadership rebel. Ami has spent her career helping organizations navigate growth, change, and complexity, building cultures where business results and humanity don’t have to compete. She believes you can be empathetic and have a backbone at the same time, helps leaders tackle hard conversations, and challenging the idea that HR should live in handbooks instead of real life. With deep experience in tech and fast-growing companies, Ami is passionate about shaping workplaces that are bold, inclusive, and built for the humans inside them.
Outside of HR and podcasting, Ami is a mom to six awesome kids (and two granddaughters) and is fueled by big ideas, meaningful connection, and has an impressive snack rotation - so much so that she named her dog Snax… even though she doesn’t actually have a dog yet.

Marci Coppola

Part people strategist, part leadership coach, part professional pattern interrupter. Marci has spent over a decade helping organizations untangle complex people challenges, build stronger leaders, and create workplaces where performance and humanity can actually coexist.She’s known for asking the questions most people avoid, helping leaders cut through noise, and turning “stuck” into forward momentum. She’s especially passionate about helping high-achievers navigate growth seasons, career pivots, and those “what’s next?” moments.
Outside of HR and coaching, Marci is a proud dog mom to her wild (and highly opinionated) corgi, Bucky. You can usually find her decompressing with a good book, music, Pilates, or meditation - her secret weapons for staying grounded in a fast-paced world.
Superpower: Seeing potential before people see it in themselves.
Misfit Energy: Challenging outdated corporate playbooks and replacing them with real conversations and people-first strategy.
