On today’s episode, I speak with Carista Luminare who has more than 40 years experience as a counselor, consultant and educator to individuals, couples and families. In her private counseling practice, she integrates her lifelong research on how our early bonding patterns profoundly impact our self-identity and adult relationship dynamics.

Her powerful life-changing programs bring participants into direct experience and embodiment of their True Self. Carista has developed a comprehensive holistic parenting methodology, a leading-edge evolutionary leadership program, and a practical approach for couples to rewire insecure bonding into a secure functioning relationship.

After graduating from Harvard University in Psychology and Social Relations in 1978, and completing her post-graduate degrees, Carista pioneered educational programs on early attachment that focused on preventing and repairing childhood developmental trauma.

She has been certified in both the Gottman Method and Stan Tatkin’s PACT Institute. As President of Luminary Leadership Institute, she coaches leaders how to be pro-relational.
