I’m Crystal Cartwright, the founder of Thriving in Color Coaching & Consulting, and my mission is simple: to empower professionals, entrepreneurs, and leaders with the strategies, confidence, and tools they need to thrive.

With 15 years of leadership experience, 10 years of operational expertise, and 3 years in the creator economy, I’ve had the privilege of guiding thousands of people toward success. I’ve worked at Nike, Apple, and high-growth tech startups, leading large teams, driving business impact, and helping individuals reach their full potential.

After years of working in corporate leadership, I launched Thriving in Color to expand my reach and help people worldwide. Whether you’re looking to scale your business, grow your brand, or advance in your career, I’m here to provide the clarity and support you need to move forward with confidence.

Why I Started Coaching

I come from a family of leaders and educators, so guiding and uplifting others has always been in my DNA. I’ve seen firsthand how overwhelming it can be to navigate career growth, business strategy, and leadership development—whether you’re just starting out or leading at the highest level.

I started Thriving in Color because I believe success should be accessible to everyone, no matter their industry, background, or experience level. My goal is to be a resource, mentor, and coach for those who are ready to take the next step in their journey. With the right strategies and support, you can thrive—and I’m here to help you do exactly that.
