Transform Yourself.
Transform Your Leadership.

Welcome to the Congruent Leader Council. A group for founders & CEOs

The weight of being a startup CEO can feel overwhelming—the constant decision-making, the responsibility for others' livelihoods, the pressure to always have the right answers. But these challenges aren't just burdens—they're signals showing you where you need to grow next. They're all pointing to areas where deeper work will unlock your next level of leadership. Why? Because leadership isn’t just about skills or strategies—it’s about who you are as a human being.

To navigate this evolution well, it helps to have a space where you can be truly seen by peers you respect, where you can reflect deeply without judgment, and where you'll be supported with powerful tools and reframes that transform these growing pains into breakthrough moments. And you’ll need to actually show up, consistently, over time.

The Congruent Leader Council is that space. It was designed for founders and CEOs who are ready to explore the inner work of leadership, and to not only succeed, but to thrive as people. Here, you’ll uncover the unconscious patterns holding you back, integrate new ways of being, and step into the full potential of your work—and yourself.

If you’ve felt the call to go deeper—but haven’t yet taken the next step—this is the moment. This is the space.

I’m Colin. A certified, masterful executive coach with 15 years in tech and design thinking. I work with Founders and Entrepreneurs to see and own themselves more fully.

And it works. In my years coaching execs, the most common feedback I hear from my clients is “I feel more me than I’ve ever been”.

I know you don’t need advice. I’m not the solver of your problems. But I’m downright magical at calling your most powerful self forward, at unblocking your resistance, at creating space for deep listening, asking the questions you haven’t already answered.

Themes we’ll explore

There’s no set curriculum, but these are some of the underlying concepts that we’ll shift your relationship with.

  • Shift from survival mode to essence, leading from a place of congruence. And understand the survival strategies you’ve developed over time—those automatic responses that keep you safe but may limit your true potential.

  • Embrace a rhythm that prevents burnout, balancing drive with rest so you can show up fully at work and in life. Break up with the extractive relationship you have to yourself and others.

  • Strengthen your self-trust so that every decision, big or small, becomes a clear step toward the future you’re building.

  • Shift from seeing risk as a threat to seeing it as a gateway to growth, embracing uncertainty as part of your evolution.

  • Practice the balance between commitment and non-attachment, allowing yourself to be invested without holding on too tightly.

  • Tap into your unique strengths and purpose, inspiring those you lead with your true expression of greatness.

  • Develop the capacity to remain calm and centered, even when tensions rise, so you can respond thoughtfully instead of reacting.

Release the drama by truly owning yourself and your choices.

Unattached

Accept your inability to control outcomes, and let go of the past.

Purposeful

Come home to who you are and why you’re doing this, so you can actually feel it in your body.

Take the Next Step

You already know what you need: to do the deeper self-work that transforms how you lead and live. This is the step that ensures you show up, grow, and thrive—with others on the same journey.

Spaces are limited to ensure a deeply personal experience.
