Alexis Thomason, CEO & Founder

Alexis Thomason,  M.S.Ed., CMT-P, MBSR 1
Leader | Mindfulness Facilitator | Organizational Culture Strategist

International Mindfulness Teacher's Association Board President

I am a Certified Mindfulness Teacher (CMT-P) with over 25 years of experience in educational and nonprofit executive leadership. I've served as an Executive Director in Baltimore City, a K-8 NYC School Principal, and a Deputy Chief of Family & Community Programs in DC. These are some of the highest need areas in the country, so I know what it means to lead with courage. 

In addition, I earned a degree in Business Management from The University of the City of New York, a master’s degree in Educational Psychology from NYU and have advanced training in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) from Brown University. 

Together, my training, personal practice and  professional experience have provided me with a unique and comprehensive understanding of organizational and personal ethics, the critical role of emotional intelligence and mindfulness, and the art of holding safe and judgement free space across cultures and identities. 

I bring these valuable skill sets together to design trauma-informed, mindfulness-based training programs that center your wellbeing and growth as a catalyst for elevating both your individual impact and ultimately, your company or organization's impact. I do this because my decades of experience and training has made it profoundly clear that great missions are accomplished by empowered teams, and teams are very rarely empowered under poor leadership. 

Therefore, my work integrates mindfulness, somatic healing, management and leadership development to address what criples organizations from the inside out- poor leadership and toxic cultures.
