WELL HEY THERE,
I'M CHARUKA
I’m a small-town Minnesota author, podcaster, educator, and photographer with big dreams and the #1 Marketing Podcast in the country.
Very into: syrupy pancakes, good emails, and carving out a life you don’t have to pretend to like. Avoiding small talk since 1988.
I’m a small-town Minnesota author, podcaster, educator, and photographer with big dreams and the #1 Marketing Podcast in the country.
Very into: syrupy pancakes, good emails, and carving out a life you don’t have to pretend to like. Avoiding small talk since 1988.
I didn’t always have this business:
the clients, the courses, the book, the
sales, the millions of downloads...
In fact, just a decade ago you could
have found me wearing red and
khaki, exhausted in my stuffy
windowless office. I thought I had
landed my dream job, but that
dream turned into a ladder-
climbing nightmare.
At the age of 23, I invested in a $300 Craigslist camera. Little
did I know, that camera would be my one-way ticket out of
my windowless office corporate job. That single investment
led me to the 7-figure empire I’m running today (and a
bestselling book that tells the whole story). Today you can
find me snuggled up in my cozy Minnesota craftsman with
my two pups or basking on the beaches of Lake Superior
with my dreamboat husband and our beautiful girls.

IN RETROSPECT
I probably should have known that the
girl who would haul a cooler a half a
mile to reach the intersection of two
desolate dirt roads in a tiny Minnesota
town to sell lukewarm lemonade for
fifty cents would become an
entrepreneur someday...
currently...
I’m probably sipping coffee or a
jalapeno margarita and dreaming
of ways we can all get from where
we are to where we want to be.
Want to know what lights me up? Helping women
harness the power to take control of their lives.
Busting the myth of balance. Redefining a person’s
beauty in a world that tells us who to be. Shining
a spotlight on glorious truths so we can all find our
way back to a life that is truly our own.
In case you’re new around here, I believe that
change happens where the woo meets the work. I
can’t wait to show you exactly what I mean…
Ceo
When people think my business is a hobby, I tell
them I’m a CEO of a multi-million dollar empire.
A FEW OF THE THINGS I ANSWER TO:
Mama
A title I wore through our struggle to become parents.
Even though my baby girl said “Dada” first, this title is
the one I’m most proud of.
Role
model
Trust when I say, I am NOT a model but I wear the
title “Role model” with tons of pride and I smile
with my eyes like Tyra taught me to.
Author
I wrote a book and it's out into the world!
"How Are You, Really?" is the kind of "lean in"
conversation you're craving with a friend.
