Culture & Wellness Strategy

Annie Sanchez works in collaboration with an all-woman of color crew of world-builders who deeply value and center holistic ways of knowing and understanding.

Our shared vision for the world, alongside our individual approaches to life and work, are portals to the change we actively pursue.

We are a collective force of strategic-minded, heart-centered women of color entrepreneurs, consultants and coaches with an innovative approach to business and organizational development.

We believe interdependence is not a radical operations strategy but essential for sustainability today and for the generational impact we are working towards.

We know that no single person has all the answers to a given challenge. 

As independent professionals, problem-solvers and community members, we have each learned how being in right relationship with each other and our planet requires an egoless approach on all fronts.

Boldly and unapologetically centering justice, liberation, and joy, we wrap clients in an iterative process that holds what they are doing today alongside what they want to create or change, and how it all will impact generations to come. 

We step into a sacred space with others who crave strategic thought and heart partnership as they work towards systems change, growing their businesses, and creating sustainable organizations.

A taste of what we do for clients:

  • North Star, vision and purpose creation or clarification

  • Coach (co-leaders, executive directors, emerging leadership, finance, board)

  • Facilitate difficult conversations

  • Staff wellness and trust-building retreats

  • Evaluate processes and programs

  • Strategic hiring



 
  • Annie’s Clarity Framework brings focus, direction and motivation to teams, projects and businesses.

    It may appear simple and straightforward, which is precisely why it holds so much magic. Through countless hours in strategy, coaching and healing spaces, my approach has been validated over and over again.

    Ideate — Bring all your bold visions, messy thoughts, creative inspiration and everything in between to the table.

    Calibrate — Like a compass calibrates to North, we will sort and align your ideas with where you are heading.

    Activate — Where the rubber hits the road, we will develop an roadmap and action plan that fits into your lives and current work plans.

 

Our approach

Curiosity. As strategic problem-solvers, coaches, evaluation and operations experts and organizational developers, we lean into questions with utmost respect because we know they lead to the answers (and more questions) that shape the world we and our clients so deeply desire.

Leveraging our collective gifts and talents, while centering our joy, we use methodologies as rich and diverse as the lineages from which we were born and nurtured. 

  • We hold space for clients to courageously dream up a world beyond themselves while creating possibilities where it may seem none exist.

  • We work in deep relationship with each other and our clients with an understanding that the specific solutions we develop can only emerge from within these very relationships.

  • We empower clients to understand and own their financial capabilities as a means to creating the world they desire today and intend to leave behind.

  • We uplift clients by co-creating back-end systems that support organizational effectiveness.

What we love

When we meet people who understand that a true and meaningful vision, purpose and strategic planning process takes deep thought, creativity and spacious breathing room — our hearts burst with excitement and inspiration.

We know through decades of collective experience that a “strategic plan” is simply another way of saying approach to what matters most to you.

You can read how we work and what you’re about if we’re meant to work together below. Feel free to send a message here or schedule an exploratory call at the bottom of this page.

Who you are

  • You are an executive director, board chair, nonprofit or philanthropy leader, business owner or government agency looking for innovative solutions to the problems you are addressing. 

  • You prioritize BIPOC and/or LGBTQIA+ people in your work, and you relinquish power whenever and wherever you can in service of these communities

  • You are open to alternative methods of strategy, including spiritual and embodied wisdom, because you understand how the ways organizations and businesses have historically grown have extracted resources and labor from communities of color, and you are ready to disrupt the systems that allow it.

  • You are a courageous risk-taker who is thinking about systems-change and leaping forward to bring that change into reality.

  • You recognize humility coupled with vulnerability is the not-so-secret recipe for success.

Next steps

We’d love to explore what’s possible.

The length of time we spend together depends on what you want to accomplish. Projects typically span 6 weeks to 6 months.

Let’s have a conversation about what we could co-create together.
