WHY ORGANIZATIONS HIRE ME
Coaching that shows up in the work. The very
next day.
Adaptability may be the single most valuable skill in this era of work, and burned-out people cannot adapt. That intersection is my specialty.
My rule for every session: if my client cannot apply it at work tomorrow, we do not spend time on it. No binders. No theory for theory's sake. A leader leaves each conversation with something concrete to run the next day, and their team feels the difference within weeks.
Overloaded senior engineers who set one deliberate boundary got their evenings back, and came back sharper at work.
Executives running on empty who learned to steady their own nervous system and rebuilt their calendars around what actually sustains performance.
Leaders stuck chasing validation who moved to evidence-based confidence and a coaching leadership style their teams want to work for.
High performers at a crossroads who landed genuinely meaningful work, and the meaning fueled their growth in seniority and reward.
DRAWN FROM REAL ENGAGEMENTS, DETAILS DISGUISED
TODAY’S BUSINESS REALITY
Leadership strain is now structural.
Managers are promoted without coaching skills, then expected to carry engagement alone.
High performers are approaching burnout, or already feeling its effects, and hiding it well.
Rapid growth and reorganization erode culture faster than most companies can rebuild it.
AI is reshaping every role, and constant adaptation is its own load on your best people.
When leadership capacity weakens, performance, engagement, and retention follow.
Wellness perks won’t fix structural strain. Burnout is a leadership systems issue, and it responds to systematic work.
THE COST OF DOING NOTHING
$4,000 -
$21,000
Annual cost of burnout-related disengagement per employee, with higher costs for managers and executives, and cumulative impact across teams.
American Journal of Preventive Medicine, 2025
70%
The amount of a team’s engagement that comes down to one person: the manager. When that manager is burned out, turnover on their team runs 50% higher. A leader running on empty eventually drains the whole team.
Gallup State of the Global Workplace, 2025 / Gitnux
$51,000
per year
Burnout is contagious. And expensive.
Invisible cost on a single $150k manager. For every 10k paid in salary to a burned-out employee, roughtly $3,400 in value disappears to presenteeism and quiet disengagement.

HOW I WORK
Since 2020 I have led more than 5,000 coaching sessions with executives, managers, and senior individual contributors at Fortune 50 firms, major universities, health systems, and government organizations across 18 countries. I have been in the room for promotions and for layoffs. The work is science-backed, customized to your business priorities, and built for outcomes you can measure.
Executive & High Performer Coaching
For senior leaders and the senior individual contributors your business runs on. Clarity, resilience, and decision-making capacity for the people carrying the most.
Leadership Team Facilitation
Improving cohesion, accountability, and strategic
alignment where it matters most: at the top.
Manager-as-Coach Development
Equipping managers to coach, develop, and keep the people they
lead. The highest-ROI seat in your
engagement numbers.
Sustainable Performance Strategy
Embedding practices that protect long-term performance and culture through growth and change.
Your embedded coaching partner
The strongest results come from continuity, so I work on retainer as an ongoing partner, inside your business rhythms and priorities. Engagements are structured, customized, and aligned with business priorities, typically spanning 3–6 months or longer. Your leaders get a consistent thought partner. You get leadership development that compounds.
ABOUT
Meet Coach Carie
I am a business psychologist and board certified coach, and I work in the trenches. Across more than 5,000 sessions with leaders in 18 countries, I have coached people through promotions, layoffs, reorganizations, and the everyday breaking points in between, helping high performers reclaim their capacity without giving up their ambition.
I do my own restoring in nature. I am an avid hiker, I serve on the board of an ecological center dedicated to restoring land and people, and I live in Columbus, Ohio, with my two little old dogs.
