Hi, I'm Caryn Gillen.

Master Leadership and Business Coach

Nobody ends up on my website on accident.

The fastest and most direct way to do anything around here is to just reach out to me directly and I’ll follow up with next steps.

AS FEATURED IN:

...and dozens more, but websites are hard.

To know me, you you'll know my VALUES.

Spaciousness: There’s always enough time for connection, integrity, and fun. We take our time.
Integrity: We check back with our values regularly. We run our practices, offers, and content through them. If it doesn’t align, we don’t do it.
Wholeheartedness: If I can’t be all in, I’m out. Sometimes it takes me a bit to make this call (see spaciousness, we don’t hurry!) but once I’m clear, I’m clear.
Connection: We love humans. We make time and space for connection - it’s who we are. We will throw out rules and agendas, if necessary, to prioritize this.
Growth: When we know better, we do better (thank you, Maya Angelou.) We are always leaning into learning.

Around here we know that values are important.

They say who we are without us saying anything – and I’m a woman of few words so they are especially important for me.

When I work with clients I help them develop a fluency with their values that adds ease to their lives.
