Having a “successful” life isn’t just about making money, it’s about creating a legacy.

A legacy that will last for generations.

I am a proud, first-generation Filipino American.

I had straight A’s, and was valedictorian three times.

My grandmothers who are pictured here, are my Queens.

I grew up with Nana organizing family parties (my grandma to the right), and Mamang who raised me and my brothers, while my parents went to work (my grandma to the left). We took this picture when I graduated with a Masters of Science in Leadership and Management.

The day I graduated from my Masters was the same day I realized, “Oh sh*t! I’ve been following what everyone wants for me, and not my own dreams.” It was June 2017, one month later I started my coaching business and got my first paying client. In 2022, I celebrated my 5 year business anniversary where I’ve served 500+ clients in 24 different countries helping them create an aligned and purposeful legacy in their professional and personal lives.

Apple News recognized me as one of the top 5 business coaches, LA Weekly awarded me as the #1 thought leader, and LinkedIn featured me as a Top Communication Voice.

When I graduated college, I became a grassroots organizer, knocking on doors and doing phone calls. Within 6 months, I organized 557 volunteers. After five years working in politics, I became a nonprofit fundraiser and raised $1 million in student scholarships in six months.

Raising money for college students was my proudest accomplishment.

And it made me realize that I wanted more. I wanted to help others reach their own goals to honor and create their legacy. So I started my Business and Career Coaching company.

I quickly realized that I didn’t like how other coaching businesses focused on the followers and growing huge lists.

I wanted to create a business aligned to me where I built real, transformational relationships – what I’d learned in my grassroots organizing and fundraising experience.

As a result, I’ve had six-figure launches, mentored clients to reach their own financial goals, and had two clients hit multi-seven figures this year.

What I realize is that you can create a business and career that is aligned to you by simply being you.

I help my clients create for more than themselves, while still staying in integrity to a life they love.

This is what I call the Color Your Dreams® process.

What's the Color Your Dreams Approach?

My clients understand that their definition of happiness in work and life can continuously EVOLVE.

Maybe you’re in an identity crisis and want the support and accountability to fully honor yourself and your legacy.
Maybe you have a habit of going into auto-pilot mode and “just doing” because it’s what’s worked so far.
Maybe you’re struggling with what to do next and need a safe space to express your voice and redefine your own definition of success.

What’s important is that the choices you make are true to YOU and not just outside expectations. I am here to ensure you are aligned to your truest self and values.

My Story:

⦿ I am a First-Generation Filipino. My family immigrated from the Philippines to work in the grapevines in Porterville, California (Central California).

⦿ I’ve lived in 6 different states (Iowa, Indiana, Montana, New Mexico, Massachusetts and of course, California!).

⦿ I started doing Muay Thai (Thai Kickboxing) when I was 16 because I was being bullied and this was a great outlet to feel like I had my own back.

⦿ I’ve had 25 different jobs, was fired 3 times, and quit 3 times to find a career I currently love.

⦿ I left my dream job to go full time into my dream business.

⦿ I have a Masters in Leadership and Management.

⦿ I’ve negotiated my salary twice while working with a coach, which led to a $12,000 raise and $26,000 raise.

⦿ I paid off $30,000 in undergrad debt, and paid my way through graduate school with a $30,000 tuition.

This picture is with my mom, who I call my my mini-me cause she’s 4’11 even though she likes saying she’s 5 feet (I’m 5’5 😜).

My story has led me to…

⦿ Knowing how to deal with conflict and toxic environments by being assertive.

⦿ Living a healthy and holistic life. I listen to my body. I love doing Bikram Yoga, weight-lifting, and hiking.

⦿ Creating boundaries with work, family and all aspects of my life.

⦿ Saying no to people and events that no longer serve me.

⦿ Working and investing on my own coaches since 2014, and my own therapists since 2005.

⦿ Making mistakes that help me learn more about myself.

⦿ Honoring my family’s sacrifices by living my dreams (and wanting the same for you!)

⦿ Becoming reiki-certified, being trauma-informed and currently working on receiving my International Coaching Federation certificate

Throughout my life, I have always taken aligned action to my soul’s calling.

Here’s a 3 minute vulnerable video of the exact moment I decided to leave my job to go full time into my coaching business. This was December 2017.

These days, I am focused on helping women create their own legacy. A legacy that is defined by them and on their own terms.

Elaine’s practical and affirming approach to coaching came at a time of change and great motion in my career within the social impact sector.Our structured sessions, actionable guides and fantastic scripts supercharged my communication skills, influence power and salary negotiation skills.As a woman of colour in corporate North America, I valued Elaine’s cultural competencies and awareness of the unique challenges women of colour face as we build carers and businesses in this context.If you are a fit for her mission driven services you will not regret taking that discovery call with Elaine.

I had the privilege of witnessing Elaine in action as a business and executive coach in her presentation at the 2024 NextUp Summit in Chicago. Words truly cannot express how much I loved working with her. During her breakout session where I was the photographer, I made it a point to pause and absorb what she was presenting—and wow, was it worth it!Elaine spoke passionately about "Owning Your Presence," and she exemplified the very essence of her message. Her ability to capture and hold the attention of over 200 eager attendees was nothing short of remarkable. The energy in the room shifted as she shared her insights, making everyone present lean in to catch every word.Elaine's coaching style is incredibly engaging and impactful. She combines profound knowledge with a dynamic presence that inspires confidence and action. If you're looking for a coach who genuinely connects with her audience and delivers results, Elaine is the one to turn to. Her sessions are not just talks—they are transformative experiences that leave a lasting impression. Highly recommended!

I never thought I needed a business coach! After reading a thousand books about being a CEO, I realized it is essential to delegate your duties and stay on track all at the same time. And me being a control freak, it was really hard to allow somebody else to guide my path. But I’m really grateful to have met Elaine, and after even our first conversation, my business started to elevate immensely. I already know that this is going to be a successful relationship and she’s really going to guide me on how to accomplish getting all the ideas and dreams to be reality!

I worked with Elaine Lou as my career coach during a critical crossroads in my career. As fellow first-generation Asian American women, Elaine and I connected deeply on our shared values and nuanced experiences navigating our career fields. Elaine was incredibly understanding when I needed to take a break for myself. She reinforced the importance of advocating for oneself and introduced me to incredible women in the business space and community. Her efforts to help women of color build their careers and businesses are genuine, and she brings a high level of energy to her work.Elaine has helped me better align my career with my life and invited me to her amazing business and career leadership retreats. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to align their career with their life, all while having someone there to provide resources and help hold them accountable to their goals.Thank you, Elaine! ~

Her unique approach to coaching has not only enhanced my communication and leadership abilities but also provided invaluable insights into personal growth and self-advocacy.From the start, Elaine demonstrated a keen understanding of my cultural Asian background, enabling us to delve into complex topics without the need for lengthy explanations. Her deep empathy and compassion fostered a safe environment for me to explore sensitive issues, such as the impact of my upbringing in a patriarchal household (and broader society) on my career.Elaine's guidance has been instrumental in developing my ability to articulate my thoughts effectively and assert my needs both in the workplace and beyond. Her expertise in workplace politics has empowered me to confidently navigate difficult situations and stand up against oppressive behaviors.One of Elaine's greatest strengths is her accessibility and responsiveness. I have always felt supported throughout our journey together, and her unwavering commitment to my growth has been truly remarkable.Working with Elaine Lou Cartas has been so impactful that I've decided to extend our coaching relationship to include business coaching.

I did not expect to grow as much as I did - both professionally and personally - when I started working with Elaine. I can honestly say that I am not the same person who searched for "WOC Career Coach" about 8 months ago. I originally sought Elaine's services to help with a career change. I was feeling stuck, stagnant, overworked and underpaid while working at an extremely toxic company. With Elaine's guidance, support, and accountability, I obtained my dream job and over a 25% salary increase. And then I realized that my dream job was, in fact, not a dream at all. And again, with Elaine in my corner, I took the time to reflect on what I truly wanted for myself and am actively working to make my true dream a reality. I cannot thank Elaine and her team enough. Schedule a call - you won't regret it!

I cannot recommend Elaine highly enough. She is not only a joy to work with, but also deeply committed to a meaningful mission: helping WOC build careers and businesses they love. Elaine has a remarkable ability to make you feel truly seen and to empower you to pursue your inner light and vision for your life (that alone was a mindset shift and made a huge impact on my approach to the job search - it became something I did for myself).Beyond the essentials, her energy is real; she will hold you accountable. Her knowledge is high value and her belief in me gave me hope in the job search process. My cross-country move and transition to a new industry would not have been possible without her expert guidance, and I feel grateful I get to take these skills with me into the workplace as I continue to embark on my career.

Attempting to encapsulate the profound impact of Elaine's guidance as our business coach feels like an impossible task.

Her unwavering support, tailored guidance, and genuine care have been indispensable on our journey towards success.In essence, Elaine's role as our business coach transcends quantification. Her influence permeates every aspect of our entrepreneurial endeavors, shaping our growth, resilience, and overall well-being in ways that words can only begin to convey.

I met Elaine Lou Cartas in 2023, when she wrote two courses aimed at realigning your life and career, as part of her collaboration with Madecraft. She's not only a communicative storyteller but also offers insightful advice on balancing life and owning your career. Working with her was a breeze; she's highly accountable and always open to feedback. Elaine also runs her own business, where she passionately supports women of color and professionals on their career journeys, and she also skillfully balances this with regularly hosting a podcast. What stands out most is how Elaine understands the art of being your own biggest fan. She never shies away from tough conversations or addressing emotional states, a quality that’s left a lasting impression.

Hayley Doyle

22:58 18 Dec 23

Elaine is an absolute joy to work with! Elaine was recruited to create online courses through Madecraft - the online content creation/distribution company I work for. From our very first conversation together, I was blown away by Elaine's kindness, professionalism, dedication, and impressive get-it-done mentality. Every member of our team has had a blast working with Elaine, and every course she's created with us has been exceptional. She is an expert in countless topics from career development, personal development, entrepreneurship, public speaking, business and executive leadership coaching, diversity, and the ever-evolving field of artificial intelligence. Her on-camera presence is also phenomenal and our team has described her incredible performances as captivating, warm, approachable, professional, and composed. I highly recommend working with Elaine, and I'm excited to see her continue making positive impacts everywhere she goes! - Hayley

I enjoyed working with Elaine and her team. She was warm, high energy, and I loved that she coached me through tough conversations with clients that were not holding their end of their contracts. She also provides up to date action items so I know what I have to work on and info meetings with her marketing and systems people. I learned alot from the group sessions with other entrepreneurs, which made me feel like my problems weren't out of the ordinary.

Elaine is magnetic. She can draw out your truth and reflect it back to you. I never knew I needed a little bit of a tiger mom in my life, but I'm so glad Elaine donned that role for me. I felt safe, secure, and unabashedly honest in her presence. The tips she gave to me during our 30 minute session have energized my work once again. I am so so grateful to have connected with Elaine when I did. I highly recommend working with her if you feel stuck or unsure of yourself.

I was feeling unchallenged and unhappy in my career and was eagerly exploring a career change, but I was fearful and had no idea where to start. The first career coach that came up in my searches was Elaine. I listened to a couple of episodes on her “Color Your Dreams” podcast and immediately scheduled a consultation with her.I knew immediately that Elaine was an amazing career coach, from the time and effort she put into getting to know me, to understanding what I was looking for in career coaching, as well as providing me with valuable resources. And this was all prior to our consultation call! She was so genuine and I could feel that she really wanted to help me. In the 45 minutes that I spoke with Elaine, she listened to my concerns and challenges and provided me with a valuable action plan for taking the next steps towards a career change. There was so much value in this initial call with Elaine, and this action plan she assisted me with proved to be a big success!! I highly recommend Elaine as a career coach! Thanks so much Elaine for the positive impact you have made on my journey!

I'm glad I found Elaine as my first career coach, she is a very experienced, caring and professional - one of the best career coach ever! I related to Elaine a lot because we both are WOC and currently living in LA, have similar Asian culture backgrounds too. During this coaching program, Elaine is very knowledgeable and always answering my questions so quick even outside her working hours! She's very sharp and professional, helped me a lot from dealing with issues in cooperate environment, to now start building my own brand! Highly recommend her to everyone!!

Elaine has been an incredible coach and mentor for me! I met her when I was first launching my business and was really overwhelmed by all the things to do and think about as an entrepreneur with a holistic hypnotherapy practice. Elaine taught me so much and really helped me get my business off the ground with a strong plan in place to start seeing consistent clients. I have grown so much by working with Elaine one on one, in her group workshops and just watching her and being inspired. She has given me the confidence to host my own hypnosis workshops, build a strong email list, and have powerful sales=service calls that lead to new clients. I am so grateful that I found her and will continue to refer my friends. If you are looking for a business coach to help you up level your business while also honoring yourself and your time, I highly recommend you reach out to Elaine. You will have so much fun learning from her!

I started working with Elaine at the beginning of 2022 when I was feeling overwhelmed at work and suffering from burnout. She really helped me step back and re-evaluate my career and personal priorities, helped me understand (along with my therapist) that I was not being valued at my current company, and gave me tremendous support as I interviewed with other companies. I was able to find a new position doing a job that I love with a lot less stress and a $10k pay increase. I am so grateful I made the investment in myself to work with Elaine - it absolutely paid off! I finally have time to dedicate to my family, hobbies, and personal career growth. Don't hesitate to reach out to Elaine to see how she can help you!

Elaine has been my business coach for four years and she has supported me in growing a business, and more importantly, a life that reflects who I am and what I want. Moving through the tough decisions and joyous moments with Elaine in my corner has been game changer in my business. She's helped me with strategy and pricing and marketing, and she's always been committed to honoring who I am every step of the way. If you want to do business your way and still get the results you want, work with Elaine!

Elaine is a gem. She went above and beyond in guiding me towards my goals. The first steps for my particular journey involved analyzing my current client list and identifying patterns in my ideal clients for the purposes of focusing on my marketing efforts into finding those dream clients. After that, she helped me break down my goals into manageable tasks and come up with a plan for the rest of the year in order to reach those goals. The most striking thing about Elaine is how generous she is with her clients - she invited me to her virtual bootcamp and annual retreat, has offered endless resources, provided worksheets with which to challenge myself. She consistently checks in with me on a regular basis, is incredibly personable and has the keenest memory for detail - I honestly don’t know how she remembers everything I tell her! If you’re looking for a business coach who is attentive and straight up just a pro at their job, Elaine is the one for you.

Kelcey Tupas

21:05 05 Jul 22

I find that a lot of business coaches seem to focus on the same goal for each client and speak too broadly and generally. They focus on numbers, growth for the sake of growth, and oftentimes promote a culture of toxic positivity. Elaine is not anything like the stereotypical coaches we see on the ads that bombard our feeds. She's personable, an active listener, and great at identifying your needs and what will work for you. Creating a business that is sustainable to my health and happiness is important to me and Elaine has helped me get one step closer to achieving that goal.

Crystal Duan

Elaine is a very loving, supportive and attentive coach who will give you the tough advice you need and also remind you to value yourself and your time. She gave me amazing business advice that helped me make the income I wanted but was also CONSISTENT. Instead of hitting one 10K month and then burning out, I now feel supported and capable of networking, asking for what I want, and also being realistic about my expectations and seeing what's working. These are all valuable skills not everyone in the business industry touts, but Elaine is excellent in her discernment in helping you also learn to trust yourself and celebrate the highs and lows. I'd 100% recommend her as a coach, mentor, and supporter through these tough times becoming a business owner. I think her approach and philosophy are what's needed in the name of self love and self care!

I had the opportunity to work with Elaine in the later part of 2021 and all I have to say is that she's been incredibly helpful with how I can make my business be more aligned with what I envision it to be. She helped me figure out what steps I need to take and changes I had to do in order for me to reach my business goals. Every session feels like a boost of confidence and I feel so equipped to run my business smoothly now thanks to Elaine! 🙂
