Lead Through Conflict. Don’t Avoid It.
The RESET Method™ blends nervous system science, restorative leadership, and organizational strategy to help teams move from exhaustion and disconnection to cohesion and sustainable impact.
“Culture eats strategy for breakfast.”
-Peter Drucker
The Problem
In social impact work, urgency is constant. Inside many teams, that urgency hardens into reactivity, conflict avoidance, and people-pleasing. Feedback gets fuzzy, hard truths go unsaid, and leaders end up managing resentment instead of relationships.
For U.S. nonprofits, government agencies, and foundations—often operating with shrinking budgets, political volatility, and leadership transitions, the cost is steep:
-
Burnout and turnover among your most values-aligned staff
-
Uneven morale and quiet disengagement
-
Unproductive conflict and stalled decisions
-
Loss of institutional knowledge and continuity
-
Declining trust and innovation across departments
This isn’t just an HR issue. It’s a leadership and systems issue. When culture, equity, and wellness are treated as side projects—not built into how you plan and supervise—strategy can’t stick and your best people won’t stay.
The RESET Method™ restores depleted energy, rebuilds trust, and creates a sustainable operating rhythm so your team can speak the truth with care, set clear boundaries, and deliver on the mission without burning out.
Leadership Development is Our Zone of Genius.
Leaders leave our spaces lighter and more grounded, with clarity in their purpose, connection to their team, and hope restored in what’s possible.

Pathways to Reset

1-on-1 Coaching
For leaders ready to feel grounded, clear, and confident again. In this 3- or 6-month coaching partnership, you’ll learn to navigate hard conversations, set boundaries with compassion, and lead without losing yourself in the process.
“For the first time in my life, work is just one part of my life, not the whole thing. That shift has been huge. Coaching gave me the tools to slow down, notice what I actually need in order to feel resourced, and approach work in a way that feels more sustainable.” -Kelsey Parsons, Director of Human Resources, Garage Grown Gear

Workshops, Strategy & Retreats
Grounded in The RESET Method™, our programs meet your organization where you are. Each engagement is designed to strengthen leadership, restore vitality, and rebuild connection through evidence-based practices in mindfulness, nervous system regulation, and culture repair.Â
Organizations can experience The Reset Lab as a formal 4-month leadership development program for 10–20 participants, or choose a customized pathway through bespoke workshops, strategy sessions, or retreats. Whether deep-dive or light-touch, every experience blends strategy, storytelling, and science to create lasting, measurable impact.
Why It Works
After just a few sessions, teams began giving and receiving feedback with more honesty and compassion. Difficult conversations that had been avoided for months started happening—with clarity and care. One manager said, “We’re having some major breakthroughs. I never thought this would happen.”
This is the power of nervous system regulation, structured reflection, and courageous community practice.
"The most amazing moments were when Rochelle prompted us and the team was able to just have an honest and open discussion for 20-30 minutes without her guidance at all. That's when I realized we were unpacking and addressing some serious truths."
AIGA Workshop Participant
"I had the privilege of participating in the Sankalpa Workshop with Ro as part of my Yoga Teacher Training with Peace in Practice, and it was an incredibly valuable experience. While I've done a fair amount of inner work in the past, Ro's guided meditation was truly profound. She asked us to connect with our inner wise guide to seek the way forward, and the depth and clarity that came from this encounter were transformative for me."
— Sinéad Barry, Development Director, Friends of the Children Twin Cities
