LisaMarie Gauthier is reshaping leadership by combining spirit and strategy for a new paradigm of success, prioritizing connection over control.
For LisaMarie Gauthier, the journey to understanding leadership didn’t begin in boardrooms or high-powered meetings. Instead, it took root in the quiet, transformative moments on a horse farm, surrounded by nature’s rhythms, where she learned one essential truth: leadership isn’t about control, it’s about connection.
This realization would become the foundation for Elevating You Inc., a powerful coaching movement that seeks to break the mold of traditional success models, offering a fresh, soul-centered approach to leadership. Gone are the days of relentless hustling and burnout. With Gauthier’s guidance, leaders are learning to align their actions with their true selves, building sustainable success from the inside out.
From High-Performance Athlete to Soulful Leadership Coach
LisaMarie’s life story is one of remarkable success, but also deep introspection. Before she became the guiding force behind Elevating You Inc., Gauthier built a multi-million-dollar real estate portfolio in her 20s, secured a 50-acre equestrian retreat by age 32, and competed at the highest levels in show jumping. Yet, as her career and personal life flourished, she began to see the cracks in the system that pushed individuals toward more, faster, and harder, ultimately at the cost of their well-being.
The pivotal moment came when, as a mother and entrepreneur, she noticed the toll the pressure of traditional success was taking on her own life. Leadership models, she saw, were broken, favoring hustle over health, control over connection, and constant doing over being. She set out to create something radically different: a leadership framework grounded in authenticity, alignment, and empowerment.
The E.L.E.V.A.T.E. Method™: A Blueprint for Soul-Centered Leadership
At the core of LisaMarie’s revolutionary coaching philosophy is the E.L.E.V.A.T.E. Method™, a unique approach to leadership that integrates the realms of spirit, strategy, and science. Unlike traditional coaching models that focus solely on productivity or performance, the E.L.E.V.A.T.E. Method™ guides individuals to reconnect with their true selves, leading from an inner place of alignment rather than external pressures.
The pillars of the E.L.E.V.A.T.E. Method™ are designed to help clients:
- Clarify their core values and vision: Understand what truly drives them and create goals that are rooted in their authentic self.
- Rewire subconscious patterns: Overcome limiting beliefs that hold them back from true success.
- Regulate their nervous system: Build resilience to stress and take aligned actions without burnout.
- Lead with courage: Move beyond control and embrace vulnerability and trust in the process.
- Align business strategy with inner truth: Make decisions that feel right at every level, business, personal, and spiritual.
- Expand income while honoring intuition: Achieve financial growth without sacrificing well-being or values.
- Create a legacy that reflects their true purpose: Build a life that leaves a lasting impact on others, grounded in love and leadership.
LisaMarie’s approach is holistic, blending cutting-edge neurobiology with attachment theory, high-performance coaching techniques, and energetic practices. This trifecta allows her clients to expand in ways that are sustainable and meaningful, without compromising their health, family, or sense of purpose.
A Movement, Not Just a Brand
Elevating You Inc. is more than just a coaching business, it’s a global movement for leaders who are ready to make a shift. Through 1:1 mentorship, online courses, group masterminds, live events, and exclusive retreats held at her Ontario-based equestrian sanctuary, LisaMarie supports leaders from various walks of life. From burnt-out entrepreneurs to high-performing executives, creative visionaries, and caregivers, her work resonates with anyone seeking deeper meaning, connection, and growth in both their personal and professional lives.
Clients are not only learning how to scale their businesses but also how to create lives that honor their soul. LisaMarie’s work is about stepping into visibility, redefining success, and building legacies grounded in integrity. She challenges her clients to lead with authenticity, abandon the “more is better” mentality, and instead, make space for who they truly are.
The Power of Connection Over Control
A core teaching of LisaMarie’s philosophy is the transformative concept of “Connection OR Control?” In her signature course, she encourages clients to examine how they approach relationships, whether personal or professional, and ask themselves this fundamental question.
By inviting leaders to make choices from a place of connection rather than control, LisaMarie is reshaping how businesses, families, and communities function. This concept is part of the growing movement to redefine what it means to lead with integrity, mindfulness, and heart.
From Bestseller to New Book Launch
LisaMarie’s voice is also reaching a wider audience through her co-authorship of the bestselling book, Your Life on Fire, a collection of stories from women who reclaimed their purpose and passion. Her upcoming book, The E.L.E.V.A.T.E. Method™, will delve even deeper into her framework, providing readers with the tools, science, and spirit to transform their own leadership journeys.
This new book is designed to bridge the gap between self-discovery and scalable success, offering a clear roadmap for anyone ready to embrace soul-centered leadership. It’s a continuation of LisaMarie’s mission to spread her message of connected, meaningful leadership to a global audience.
The Equestrian Retreat: A Sanctuary for Soulful Leadership
One of the most unique aspects of LisaMarie’s work is the 50-acre equestrian and wellness retreat she owns near Hilton Falls in Ontario. What began as a horse boarding facility has evolved into a sanctuary for personal transformation, nervous system healing, and realignment.
Retreat guests experience a truly immersive journey, combining grounding rituals with horses and nature, movement practices for embodiment and release, and coaching circles designed for clarity and conscious leadership. This space is a living embodiment of LisaMarie’s teachings: deep, transformative, and holistic.
The retreat provides a sanctuary for those seeking to recalibrate their lives and reconnect with their inner wisdom. It’s not just a getaway, it’s a sacred space where transformation happens.
What Sets Elevating You Apart?
In a world saturated with leadership coaches and online courses, LisaMarie Gauthier offers something rare: deep devotion to her clients’ journeys. Her approach is not about quick fixes or surface-level wins. Instead, it’s about creating sustainable change from the inside out.
Her clients describe her coaching as “soul surgery,” “next-level expansion,” and “the mirror I didn’t know I needed.” These aren’t just words, they reflect the true impact of LisaMarie’s work. Her gift lies in seeing your strengths, guiding you through your shadows, and leading you to the version of yourself you’ve always known was there but couldn’t quite access on your own.
