Participant on tablet attending CLA session.

Transform Yourself. Transform the World.

The Conscious Leadership Accelerator is a 6-week online immersive experience for change agents, facilitators, and impact-driven leaders to help you master the shift from reactivity to creativity, enabling you to navigate life’s challenges and triggers with ease and resilience. Through a practical toolkit of life-changing techniques, you’ll learn to manage stress, overcome self-doubt, and cultivate unshakable resilience.

This program fosters deep, meaningful relationships within a supportive community of like-minded change agents, accelerating your personal growth and positive impact.

The Challenge:
Why This Matters Now

The world is evolving faster than ever. Traditional leadership models—rooted in authority, hierarchy, and over-intellectualization—are no longer enough. Just knowing something cognitively won’t give you the skillset and nervous system regulation you need to lead in today’s world.

“Do the best you can until you know better. Then, when you know better, do better.”

Maya Angelou

You are here because you sense a new way of leading is possible. One that:

    • Moves from stress-based reactivity to presence-based creativity
    • Goes beyond learning about transformation and shifts into embodying it
    • Cultivates conscious leadership as a way of being, not just doing

The problem? Most change agents are still leading from the neck up. They understand transformation intellectually but struggle to fully embody the presence, clarity, and coherence needed to lead it powerfully.

Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will rule your life and you will call it fate.”

Carl Jung

That’s where The Conscious Leadership Accelerator comes in.

Introducing the Conscious Leadership Accelerator

This is not just another leadership course. This is a rewiring of who you are as a change agent.

The Conscious Leadership Accelerator (CLA) is a 6-week experiential journey designed to rewire your nervous system, expand your presence, and elevate your impact.

This isn’t passive learning. It’s an active transformation process that blends:

default

Neuroscience-backed leadership training to optimize influence & decision-making.

default

Mindfulness practices to cultivate awareness, clarity, and presence.

default

Heart intelligence techniques to create coherence in emotions & relationships.

default

Breathwork & nervous system mastery to regulate stress & enhance resilience.

default

Inquiry-based transformation to unlock new possibilities & break limiting patterns.

Through live calls, guided practices, and a powerful community, you’ll integrate these skills—not just learn them—so you can lead with full-body alignment, clarity, and confidence.

Who This Is For ...

This experience is for leaders who are ready to step into a higher level of impact.

  • Coaches, facilitators, and consultants who guide transformation and want to embody it themselves

  • People-leaders and entrepreneurs who seek to lead with greater clarity, resilience, and influence

  • Change agents, Trainers, and conscious leaders who are done with outdated leadership models and ready to expand their presence and impact

  • If you feel called to lead from a place of deep presence, embodied wisdom, and heart-centered intelligence—this is for you.

My commitment is being fully and completely present, now and now and now, etc. When I am, I am the best version of myself and everyone I touch benefits. Thank you for your loving support.”

“I have noticed that my mind and heart have felt disconnected due to a prolonged period of stress for the past 4 years (probably longer). My nervous system has been on alert for a really long time. Conscious Leadership Accelerator brought awareness to the parts of me that need to be tended to. My heart is asking for more attention, compassion, and acceptance and I get to apply the resources shared in our Conscious Leadership Accelerator to expand my heart capacity.”
