Welcome To Sandbox Consulting

I’m Carolyn Ou, founder of Sandbox Consulting and a career and leadership coach. Since 2003, I’ve been coaching professionals and students towards achieving their work and life goals.

What I love doing most is working with people who are ready to play big in their life and work, people who want to get out of their heads and into action around their most important goals. And rather than tell a person what I think they should do, I partner with my clients to clarify who they are at the core, where they want to go, and what they’d like more of in their life and work. We dig, we dream, ask tough questions, sing, dance, draw, rage and explore together.

Then we figure out how to make it happen in a way that’s simple, achievable and even enjoyable.

In creating Sandbox Consulting, I was inspired by the sandbox as a place where everyone can create and explore without fear of the results, and in doing so enjoy the process. My goal as a coach is to always bring some of that simplicity, clarity, and creativity to my clients in their daily work and life.

If you want to explore how you can use coaching to make the most out of your life and work, keep reading, or contact me to schedule a sample session.

Carolyn was wonderful to work with, a great mix of professional and personal.  I will always reflect on the conversations we had and the coaching Carolyn provided. I appreciate that Carolyn took my goals to heart, she really got to know me, and together, we made progress on each goal

I was interested in taking my business in a new direction but wasn't sure how I could make the shift. Carolyn worked with me to identify the themes that tied together all my work and experience in a way that was clear, unified and also exciting for me! We were able to create messaging that I could use to put myself out there in a way that would be inspiring both to potential clients and also to me.
