Our Story

As an organizational psychologist with over 35 years of experience, Carl Lemieux has both practical experience as a senior leader in organizations and as a management consultant across various sectors specializing in strategy, transformation and leadership development.

Throughout his career, he experienced his own wellbeing challenges and observed widespread stress and burnout in organizations—challenges often not voiced due to the pressures of demanding corporate cultures. He observed how senior leaders were being pulled into short term firefighting, as the pace of the workplace keeps getting increasingly turbulent, diluting the full potential of a well managed mind, where knowledge is increasingly commoditized and mind awareness and expansion now becoming a competitive advantage.

Carl’s perspective shifted when he discovered the role of higher levels of consciousness, evidence-based psychological tools like Acceptance and Commitment Training (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic awareness and other deeper psychological modalities that heighten self-awareness, self-leadership and higher performance levels. These practices profoundly influenced his own life, enabling him to manage stress more effectively and make decisions aligned with his core values. Recognizing the transformative potential of these tools, Carl became committed to reshaping workplace cultures around consciousness.

Following the acquisition and then spin-off of Mindspace Wellbeing, a mental health company co-owned by Carl, Carl founded Mindsmatter, an organization dedicated to integrating higher levels of consciousness, mindfulness and other psychological principles into strategy, transformation and leadership development in the service of sustainable organizational performance.
