Executive Coach & Culture Development Consultant
Founder of the Human Alignment Method™
Christa Russo is an Executive Coach and Culture Development Consultant who partners with founders, executives, and leadership teams to build emotionally intelligent cultures, grounded leadership, and aligned systems.
She works at the human systems level of organizations — where burnout, reactivity, communication breakdowns, and culture strain actually originate.
Through her signature Human Alignment Method™, Christa helps leaders uncover the unconscious emotional, relational, and structural patterns shaping how their organizations operate. Rather than treating leadership challenges as isolated performance issues, her work realigns the whole system — integrating nervous system regulation, emotional intelligence, embodied leadership, and structural clarity.
Her approach blends psychology, neuroscience, and somatic leadership principles with practical organizational design, helping leaders move from intellectual awareness into embodied, sustainable change. The result is leadership that doesn’t collapse under pressure — and cultures that can actually support growth.
Christa has partnered with organizations navigating rapid expansion, leadership burnout, and cultural strain — uncovering core patterns across communication, emotional safety, leadership burnout, systems misalignment, and retention.
With more than a decade of experience coaching executives, founders, and mission-driven organizations across hospitality, wellness, regenerative business, and culture-led companies, Christa bridges human insight with operational reality — merging emotional intelligence with accountability, and depth with structure.
She works with leaders who want root-level change -
not temporary fixes that collapse under pressure.
Most organizations don’t have a strategy problem.
They have a human alignment problem.
I work with organizations at growth thresholds.
The stage where expansion, pressure, and complexity start exposing everything that’s been operating unconsciously:
• Burnout disguised as ambition
• Reactive leadership patterns
• Avoided conversations
• Emotional disconnection at the top
• Cultural strain
• Confusing role boundaries
• Overextension
• Misalignment between values and behavior
• Systems that can’t support the level of growth you’re reaching
Most leadership teams are highly intelligent.
What’s missing isn’t capability.
It’s emotional regulation.
Relational safety.
Truthful communication.
Aligned systems.
And leadership presence that doesn’t collapse under pressure.
That’s the gap I work in.
leadership starts in the body
I don’t work at the surface level of leadership.
I work at the nervous system level.
Because no culture can evolve beyond the emotional capacity of the people leading it.
And no organization can scale sustainably if its leaders are:
• Dysregulated
• Burned out
• Avoiding hard conversations
• Operating from control instead of presence
• Intellectually self-aware but emotionally unavailable
• Leading from fear disguised as productivity
My work integrates:
• Emotional intelligence
• Nervous system regulation
• Embodied leadership
• Clear communication
• Structural clarity
• Values-aligned systems
• Real accountability
This is not soft work.
It’s the hardest leadership work there is.
The Human Alignment Method™
This work follows a simple, rigorous principle:
When human systems are aligned, organizational systems become sustainable.
The Human Alignment Method™ bridges: →
-
(emotional regulation, embodiment, values, nervous system safety)
-
(communication, boundaries, conflict resolution, psychological safety)
-
(roles, systems, clarity, accountability, process design)
It doesn’t treat burnout, conflict, turnover, or culture breakdown as isolated problems.
It treats them as signals.
Signals of misalignment between:
• Leadership patterns
• Emotional capacity
• Communication norms
• Values
• Systems
• Growth pace
• Human limits
