Meet Corean
The “Calm in the Chaos” Culture Catalyst your organization needs.
Let’s make work better, so we can all live better.
My Story
How I Got Started
I’ve managed large teams, coached and developed leaders at all levels and led marketing strategy for some of the world’s largest brands during my 20+ year Corporate Career. I’ve built organizations and shaped cultures to be more human-centered and now spend my time helping leaders liberate their lives so they can live and lead with impact and build workplaces that are engines of well-being.
I learned the importance of well-being in the workplace the hard way. In an effort to juggle my executive leadership responsibilities with raising my children as a single mother, I often neglected my own needs. This led to full burn out, hospital stays and months in bed where I was unable to help anyone. Our modern way of living with such an emphasis on work output, the pressure to be always on, always doing and achieving more, isn’t working. I’ve spent the last decade building my wellness toolbelt and helping to bring more BEing back into work.
As a leader, I realized very quickly that I cared more about making work better for the people on my team and my client contacts than I did about hitting revenue goals at all costs. The more I poured into my people, the more the numbers took care of themselves. If you make work better, you make life better and when your people are thriving, your business can reach levels you never imagined.
My Mission
My mission is to help people live happier, more joyful and fulfilled lives. One of the greatest influences on the quality of our adult lives is our work. If we make work better, we make life better.
