Founders Carla Has Worked With

KEALA KANAE, CEO & Founder of Inspirean and Fullstaq Marketer, Las Vegas NV

“I’m more confident leading my team than I’ve ever been. I’m clearer about where I’m taking the company and more courageous in the face of challenge and uncertainty. The ROI on this work is extraordinary — increased clarity, stronger leadership, and the ability to grow the company while minimizing pressure and stress. It’s one of the best investments I’ve made.”


BASHAR J. KATOU, CEO and Founder of BJK University, Miami, FL

“I came in with severe anxiety and panic attacks and felt completely lost. Working with Carla weekly and through quarterly intensives put me on a real trajectory of growth. I’ve learned to hear my own inner wisdom instead of getting buried in anxious thoughts. It has been a powerful and life-changing shift.”


Kat Sullivan, Founder of MarketingSolved, Los Angeles, California

“After unimaginable trauma, I believed I didn’t need help. I was wrong. Working with Carla revealed who I am and where I’m going, and elevated my success on every level—financial, emotional, physical, and personal. The verdict: it changed everything, and it’s worth it.


ANIK SINGAL, Entrepreneur, Founder, Speaker, Best Selling Author, Rockville, MD

“I’ve started many companies and was the classic burn-myself-out, work-24/7 entrepreneur. My health was deteriorating. Working with Carla has been one of the most life-changing experiences of my career. I work less, focus on my health, get more done, and my business is growing faster because I changed. My life is dramatically better.”

COURTLAND WARREN, Founder of AI + You and Master Facilitator, Tulsa Oklahoma

“I’ve spent my adult life helping people change, and still, this past year of working with Carla shifted me in ways I didn’t know were available. She doesn’t rush transformation or try to fix anything. She creates the safety for parts that have been carrying things for a long time to finally rest. What changed wasn’t just insight, it was my relationship with effort and power.”


LANDON STEWART, Owner and Co-Founder at Clients & Community, Scottsdale, Arizona

“I had crippling anxiety as the company grew. I was waking up scared to start the day, couldn’t sleep, and couldn’t turn my mind off. I was irritable and couldn’t control my emotions. I was nervous and anxious. After working with Carla, things shifted within weeks. I feel lighter, more at ease, and far more at peace.”


TIFFANI HIGGINS, Founder, CEO of Stay at Home Bookkeeper Academy, Houston, TX

“My business grew fast. I became overwhelmed and disconnected. Within a couple of months of working with Carla, everything shifted. I gained clarity about how I operate, my stress patterns, and what actually supports me. It changed both my life and my business. I’m a steadier leader and better partner.”


CHRIS STAPLETON, Owner and Co-Founder at Clients & Community, Scottsdale, Arizona

“Growing the company started to eat me alive. I was losing sleep, carrying stress I couldn’t handle, and identifying myself with the business. Carla helped me stabilize my emotions and grow. I have more steadiness, clearer identity, and peace of mind. We’ve since brought several team members to work with her.”


Writing and Conversations

Carla writes about what founders carry and rarely say out loud. Decisions that do not settle. The cost that accumulates before anyone names it. What happens when the thing that is hardest has nothing to do with the company.

On What Holds, she talks with founders and leaders about the weight they carry privately and what becomes possible when they stop carrying it alone.


Begin a Conversation

If the way you have been operating has started to take more than it returns, a conversation is where this work begins.

Engagements are confidential and shaped to the situation. The first call is private and exists to determine fit, not to sell you something.
