Purposeful Approach

Purpose is a catalyst for change. We help individuals and organizations position their purpose at the core of what they do so they are able to compel, engage, and mobilize themselves and others into action. We connect the dots. Our solution-based strategies help individuals and organizations move through challenges so they can discover, fulfill, and sustain their purpose.

Collaboration

We work, grow, learn, succeed, and celebrate together. We work with individuals and organizations, not for them, to help them bring their purpose to life with our hands-on collaboration and understanding of who they are and what they can become.

Commitment

We not only establish a thoughtful, clear plan, which will help us fulfill our own purpose, but we apply ourselves fully to that plan with aliveness, accountability, and truth. Commitment involves putting our best, most authentic beings into everything we do. We believe in stretching ourselves, taking risks, and being open to continually learning and growing.

Service

Our main goal is to help others activate their purpose and reach their potential by putting our resources to use in their best interest. After all, we know that the highest quality relationships in our practice are those in which our team members and clients know that we deeply care about them and their interests, fulfillment, and wellbeing.

We have purpose. And we want others to have and activate theirs for fulfillment, influence, and social good. We believe in people, see their strengths, and empower them by bringing out their best. We are with you, we are for you, to help you break through and thrive.

Meet Clara, Founder of Breaking Through Consulting:

I am a proud Colombian-American and founder of Breaking Through Consulting. In addition to helping people transform, reach their full potential, and thrive, I have worked as a nonprofit adviser, multicultural project manager, humanitarian, community relations champion, and brand activator for over 20 years. I am passionate about activating people’s and organizations’ purpose for social good.

My mission is to bring purpose to the core of people, principles, programs, partnerships, etc. so that individuals and organizations can achieve incredible heights. I am focused on helping organizations break through, advance and increase their impact by understanding the power of their brand while deepening relationships internally, externally, and with those they wish to help.

Trained as a communicator, marketer and journalist, I have been dedicated to strengthening and growing people and brands by increasing capacity to implement important activities that are designed to improve and enhance a person’s or an organization’s ability to achieve its mission and sustain it over time.

No matter where your organization stands, I can help activate your purpose and be strategic about the most effective and efficient process to move forward and achieve greater impact.
