Hi, I'm Charis (like Paris)

A little about me...

I know what it's like to seek a purpose-filled, balanced life. I was born with ambition. But I was called to this work during a pivotal moment 30 years ago.

My family was celebrating my Dad’s 50th birthday with a hot air balloon ride. The ride was beautiful, but when we were ready to land, something went terribly wrong. The pilot knew we were coming in too fast and told us, “HOLD ON TIGHT. WE’RE GONNA HIT HARD!” The balloon basket hit the ground and violently bounced. My Dad was thrown out, and a rope got wrapped around his ankle. He was suspended in the air, hanging upside down below us, and was dragged the length of a football field through rows of corn and alfalfa. The next thing I knew, we were on the ground, racing over to Dad, who was face down and not moving. This crash landing left my Dad paralyzed with a broken neck and led my Mom to become an alcoholic.

That crash happened when I was just 19 years old, and for decades, I lived my life unconsciously scared of so many things, and always emotionally bracing for impact. Needless to say, I avoided my feelings and managed my internal crisis by becoming a workaholic—giving me the illusion of safety and control.

Living your best life is possible. I know from personal experience and the work I’ve done with my amazing clients—that despite what scenario life gives you—it is absolutely possible live a fearless, fulfilling life.
