Sustainability Coaching, Writing & Program Development

Changing the world is hard.

We get SO overstretched by competing demands. (It feels impossible to find time to write that book or start that project.)

And sustainability issues, like climate change and social justice, are complex. It can be tough figuring out where to start.

Then, there’s the polarization. Our work can attract criticism from family, friends, and colleagues (or, let’s be honest, even from our own inner voice.)

Hi, I’m Chelsea.

I’m a lot like you. I’m trying to leave the world better than I found it… without letting my work consume me.

I spent a decade working on sustainability teaching, research, and outreach Ivey Business School. Now, I run a my own social enterprise.

I also help researchers and change-makers chase their own professional and impact goals without compromising their well-being.

I can help you:

Slow down your busy schedule.

Prioritize the work you care about most.

Reduce stress and anxiety.

Feel confident about your contributions.

Get that book or paper written.

Create or update a program.

Launch a new project.

If you could use help with any of these, book a free, virtual coffee chat. We’ll explore your needs and whether I can help.
