Lead Consciously. Live Fully. Create Cultures Where Humans Thrive.

Shift Above The Line helps leaders and teams move from reactivity and burnout to presence, purpose, and creative flow — through conscious leadership coaching and human-centered consulting.

Ryan & Alison Webster

Hi, we’re

For over a decade, we’ve practiced and embodied the principles of conscious leadership in our lives and work. We're passionate about helping others wake up to their full potential — not just as leaders, but as humans.

We guide individuals and teams to shift from closed, reactive patterns to open, curious, and values-driven action — the kind that transforms organizations from the inside out.

This isn’t about perfection or enlightenment. It’s about awareness. When you lead with presence and intentionality, everything changes: your decisions, your relationships, your results.

Why Conscious Leadership?

When leaders operate “above the line” — from openness, trust, and learning — they unlock:

  • Greater creativity, collaboration, and clarity

  • Lower stress and higher resilience

  • Deeper engagement, connection, and purpose

Being above the line is a state of presence. And presence is powerful.
