Dr. Gabrielle Wallace knows what it means to build while carrying the weight of leadership, purpose, and people depending on you. For over a decade, she has guided 70+ organizations — from grassroots nonprofits to growing businesses — through seasons of transition, branding, and communication challenges.

Her own journey is what makes her work different. Gabrielle has led research operations, launched initiatives, and consulted with founders and executives, but she has also rebuilt from burnout, loss, and misalignment. Out of that experience, she developed the Thrive Model, a framework that connects wellness, clarity, and sustainable growth. Featured in her book The Courage to Build, the model helps leaders and entrepreneurs align their story, systems, and strategy in a way that fuels both their mission and their humanity.

Today, Gabrielle speaks and consults on brand messaging, marketing strategy, and leadership systems that don’t just look good on paper but actually sustain the people behind them. Audiences describe her as both grounding and energizing — someone who brings clarity, compassion, and practical steps for moving forward.

She doesn’t just talk about transformation. She’s lived it. And she equips others to build with courage, clarity, and a rhythm that lasts.
