My Bio

Charis Santillie is the founder of Charis Your Life®, Fearless Transitions Coach, speaker, and podcast host. She is a multi-faceted professional with over three decades of entrepreneurial experience and is also a Certified Fearless Living® Coach, Certified Fearless Trainer, and Positive Intelligence® Trainer.

When Charis was nineteen, a hot air balloon accident left her Dad paralyzed with a broken neck and her Mom struggling with alcoholism. Charis managed her internal crisis by becoming a workaholic, giving her the illusion of safety and control. This accident became the catalyst that led her to a journey of dramatic healing and her calling to become a coach. (Watch the powerful 5-minute video of Charis telling her story here.)

Charis specializes in guiding successful entrepreneurial men to become the Chief Emotional Officers™ of their lives as they face personal and professional transitions. She helps them live with passion, purpose, and peace of mind as they navigate life's seasons.

Fun Facts: Embodying her belief in resiliency, Charis sparked her fearless spirit by skydiving just one year after her family’s accident. Her furry assistant, a 5-lb Havapoo named Heidi, can be found napping on her desk during coaching calls.

Behind the Scenes



That's our 5-lb Havapoo, Heidi, in the top photo. (But yes, a little Photoshop magic was applied...I pulled out my tools from the days when I was a graphic designer to create that fun image.)

Heidi reminds me every day to sniff around for joy and find ways to bring play into everything!
