Making a difference

As The Core Source’s founder and director, Carolyn Campbell understands that big accomplishments often begin with ideas that don’t make sense on a practical level.

The seed for The Core Source was planted while Carolyn was working for a corporation in the midst of restructuring. Within a very short time she realized that job security outweighed passion and money preceded self. People were deadened by the work and simply wanted to be left alone to do their jobs and go home.
Carolyn founded Core Source Coaching in 2001 focusing her attention on:

  • Creative & healing professionals wanting to hone their vision and effectively promote their work.
  • Business leaders reclaiming their passions and creating careers that are personally inspiring.
  • Non-profits looking to expand their reach and build strong community connections.

Today, Carolyn travels internationally offering workshops, events and seminars to grow businesses, enhance leadership and transform dreams into action. Carolyn has presented to hundreds of professionals through professional organizations, colleges, banks and businesses. Her work has been featured in The Oregonian, OPB, KABU, Portland Community Media, Alternatives Magazine, New Connexions and Entrepreneurial Women.

In addition to coaching, Carolyn facilitates public art projects in schools, jails, hospitals and public organizations, exploring the power of art and personal story. She works with people of all ages to create masks, sculptures, murals and performance.

Making your passion your business is a very difficult thing to do. Carolyn was invaluable in helping me bridge what I am passionate about with my new business in the Concordia neighborhood. With her help, my wife and I have created the business and life of our dreams.
