Who We Are

Our Mission

Calm Clarity uses neuroscience to develop the leadership capacity of human beings to co-create a world where every person thrives.

We integrate science, mindfulness, and leadership development to provide a "user manual for steering brain development" that enables people to experience alignment and wholeness and harness their inner wisdom to improve their lives, their organizations, and their communities.

Our Vision

Calm Clarity was conceived in 2013 to manifest a vision of a world free of violence, exploitation, marginalization, and disparities—a world where everyone can realize their full potential and become the highest expression of who they are.

To make this vision a reality, Calm Clarity works with leaders, organizations, coaches, and other change agents to develop and strengthen the neural pathways that enable human beings to experience physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being, alignment, and integration—a state which we call Brain 3.0.

Calm Clarity draws from neuroscience and ancient wisdom traditions to cultivate and harness Brain 3.0 to support transformations at the individual, organizational, community, and societal levels that bring humanity towards collective well-being, prosperity, and flourishing.

The Importance of Brain 3.0

Brain 3.0 refers to an optimal state of brain functioning in which people:

Discover and realize their full potential by manifesting a greater vision and purpose
Experience alignment and wholeness and embody their core values and aspirations
Access their wisdom and emotional intelligence to effectively navigate challenges and crises
Rewire reactive patterns and unhealthy coping mechanisms that undermine intentions
Build meaningful connections and strong, collaborative relationships

Why Brain 3.0 matters:

Brain 3.0 provides human beings fuller access to the vision, wisdom, and inspiration needed to co-create break-throughs and innovations that drive prosperity and flourishing.
By using Brain 3.0, human beings can navigate and engage with dysfunctional systems without internalizing their dysfunction, enabling us to co-create better systems to support collective thriving.
Cultivating Brain 3.0 as a group enables teams, organizations, and communities to boost collaboration to achieve extraordinary outcomes.

Human beings build Brain 3.0 by strengthening 4 key neural systems: attention, resilience, meta-awareness, and connection.

Together, these systems form an inner neurobiological foundation for navigating crises, uncertainty, and change as our Higher Selves.
The stronger this foundation, the more people can form high-performing teams that enhance psychological safety, agility, creativity, collaboration, and innovation.

Our Values

Inclusion: we welcome people from all socioeconomic backgrounds and identities.
Access: we support underserved groups who are often overlooked by premium training providers.
Wisdom: we help people tune in, listen to, and follow their inner compass.
Growth: we nurture transformation and healing by strengthening the neural networks of Brain 3.0.
Integrity: we practice what we preach by embodying Brain 3.0.
Experimentation: we creatively generate ideas, thoughtfully pilot new programs, and continuously improve what we do.
Collaboration: we invite individuals and organizations to co-create ways to shift into Brain 3.0.
Resourcefulness: we embrace a human-centered, lean, and agile approach to building and running the organization.

Our Non-Profit Initiatives

Calm Clarity began in 2013 as a grassroots effort to bring neuroscience from the ivory tower into inner-city communities to address the neurobiological effects of trauma, marginalizaton, poverty, and scarcity. Our first programs were for high school students, first-generation college students, and workforce development programs.

Calm Clarity trainings create transformation by guiding participants to access their inner wisdom to more effectively navigate obstacles, develop their skills and talents, and positively impact their community. Our trainings empower participants with proven, practical tools to discern and rewire reactive survival patterns and cultivate new habits that align with the positive outcomes they truly desire.

Our supporters and volunteers found our trainings to be so powerful they recommended that we also offer our training to professionals, corporations, and leadership coaches.

Calm Clarity has now supported thousands of people from inner-city classrooms to corporate boardrooms to rewire their brains.

Our non-profit programs are sustained by donations and proceeds from the Calm Clarity Book and Card Deck, our online workshops, our speaking programs, and our training and consulting engagements.

By becoming a client or donor, you support Calm Clarity to collaborate with community partners such as schools, non-profit organizations, and workforce development programs serving under-resourced communities and to provide scholarships for people experiencing economic insecurity to experience our training.
