Create a Company People Are Proud to Build With You.
The kind that attracts top talent, keeps them thriving, and scales
without losing its soul or its edge.
Hi I’m Charlene,
The Team Psychologist
for Conscious Founders and High-Growth Startups
I orchestrate coherent, aligned, high-trust organizations that move quickly, communicate clearly, and stay connected to purpose even in the chaos of rapid growth.
Clarity. Coherence. Connection. Courageous Leadership.
The real levers of sustainable scale.
And they matter now more than ever.
In the age of AI, human intelligence—trust, empathy, communication, resilience, meaning—
is what sets world-class companies apart.
Capitalism shapes our shared future.
As a leader, you influence an entire ecosystem - the people within your org and everyone they come home to, everyone who interacts with your service/product, and all that is touched by your choices and mission. This is a huge responsibility.
I partner with leaders shaping the future because my mission is to help you build it intentionally. Business as a force for good is one of the best ways we make change.
I’m here to help you create a world-class organization that enriches your people, delivers meaningful impact, and models a better future for business.
Where culture and coherence becomes your most powerful competitive edge.
For Founders
and teams on
The Leading Edge
With me as your Team Psychologist,
your organization will:
✔ Have executive teams that work like the Avengers together
✔ Resolve conflict before it becomes costly
✔ Make faster, cleaner, more aligned decisions
✔ Have clarity around values, roles, and purpose
✔ Turn strategy into shared ownership
✔ Build a culture people brag about
✔ Create offsites that ignite momentum
✔ Move forward quickly and cohesively during high-growth transitions
✔ Develop the resilience needed to navigate complexity and uncertainty
✔ Strengthen the human skills essential for leadership in the AI era
I work on the invisible layer that makes everything work—
call it the nervous system, the fascia, the connective tissue of your company.
That layer is organizational coherence— the byproduct of connection, clarity, trust, and aligned action. When coherence is strong, everything accelerates.
When it breaks down, everything slows.
My work is about Integrated Flourishing — aligning the entire ecosystem of your life, from your innermost state of being to the businesses, relationships, investments and communities you shape.
1.
Courageous Leadership:
The Inner Game
Courageous leadership is at the heart of holistic success. When you upgrade your inner operating system, your decisions and presence arise from deep clarity, resilience, and integrity. This is about living in alignment, getting out of your own way, and bringing your mission fully to life.
2.
Relational Intelligence:
Flourishing Relationships,
Teams & Communities
The quality of your relationships determines the quality of your life. We don’t grow alone — we actualize our potential in teams, partnerships, and communities. Relational intelligence unlocks fulfillment, trust, and impact at scale.
3.
Business Ecosystem
& Flourishing
Futures: The Outer Game
True success is more than profit. It’s building businesses and cultures that feel alive on the inside and create flourishing futures on the outside. I help leaders design coherent ecosystems — where vision, values, and vitality converge to serve people, grow income, and embody the future you believe in.
This is the bigger vision: to co-create life-affirming, flourishing futures—ecologies of abundance.
Coming Home to
Your Life
You’re carrying a lot.
The weight of decisions, the growth of your business, the wellbeing of your team and family, and the quiet truth that your own energy isn’t limitless.
You may be:
Clear on your vision but stretched thin by execution
Leading alone, without a trusted partner who sees the whole system
Experiencing disconnection, reactivity, or lack of presence
Wishing your leadership team operated with more coherence and trust
Aware that the operating system that got you here isn’t the one that will get you there
And yet, you know what’s possible:
A business that reflects who you are now, not just who you were when you started
A leadership team aligned around vision, values, and excellence
Renewed energy and grounded clarity
A way of working that scales with integrity and feels alive, not draining
A legacy you’re proud to lead into the future
This is the inflection point.
You’ve built a life and business that works. Well done!
But are you fully in it—awake, alive, and in relationship with the deeper current beneath it all?
Can you actually relax? If not, you’re not living, you're surviving.
Charlene was my most reliable and steady creative partner for a very transformative year. She stood for my greatness with unwavering support. I felt both cared for and called forward to be a better leader. She helped me create my most successful launch, develop a world class new program and create my novel signature experience (a long time coming). She encouraged me to develop my body of work, helping me see my unique genius and how to bring it forward to the world more powerfully. She helped me develop a team that will support the evolution of my mission, and my business foundation is set to scale. I’ve also grown significantly over the last year of working together. I even met my life partner! Charlene elevates every space she’s in and raises the standard.

—advisor, coach, and facilitator for visionary founders and their teams. For over 13 years I’ve guided leaders at pivotal moments: scaling, expanding team, navigating leadership transitions, evolving culture, climbing the “second mountain” following an exit or professional athlete retirement, reclaiming vitality after burnout, starting a new venture.

I will walk beside you as your confidant and ally, challenge you, and call you into a way of living and leading that is worthy of your incarnation.
I am an integral practitioner, working at all levels of the ecosystem: individuals, couples, co-founders, teams, communities and organizations. All my engagements integrate the principles of: courageous leadership, evolutionary purpose, care for the soul, exemplary acheivement and whole-system coherence.
I bring grounded presence, strategic insight, and a rare mix of science and soul to every stage and space. My work sparks clarity, courage, and connection — leaving people inspired to act and equipped to lead with more heart and integrity.

The heart of my work lives at the intersection of leadership, purpose, and flourishing.

My teaching and facilitation also center on relational intelligence and cultures of care, holistic thinking that moves us beyond division, and the quiet revolution of everyday practices that create real transformation.
Wherever I’m invited — on stage, in boardrooms, or in community — my role is to bring clarity, coherence, and courage, so leaders and teams can actualize their mission.
