At Broken Crayons Still Coloring™, we believe that legacy isn’t built from inspiration alone — it’s built through infrastructure. We support mission-driven founders, cultural visionaries, and dual-entity leaders with the structure, strategy, and help to move beyond survival and into systems that fund, grow, and last. Our tiered framework guides our clients through a journey that’s trauma-aware, equity-rooted, and future-focused. Because you’re not just here to process your story. You’re here to build what outlives it.
