Welcome To Your Masterwork:

Where Science Meets Soul and Sparks the Flames of Engaged Creative Purpose

​​

​

Short Introduction:

I began my career in the fast-paced world of organizational consulting and marketing leadership, working with Fortune-level corporations, visionary entrepreneurs, and cultural arts organizations. While my strategic work flourished, another calling quietly deepened—a call to walk with people through life’s thresholds, where identity, meaning, and purpose are reshaped. In time, I discovered that these two streams—business acumen and soul wisdom—were never meant to be separate. When integrated, they produce not only stronger organizations and clearer strategies, but also more grounded, inspired, and whole human beings.

​

Over the years, my work has been featured internationally, my retreats have drawn participants from around the world, and my writing has become a companion for many navigating their own turning points. (Bio here.)

​​

An Invitation:

If you sense that your next chapter calls for something more—
not just a plan, but a richer integration of what you know,
what you long for, and what the world needs from you—
then you have found what I call here: "The One Essential Journey".

On these soulful pathways there is space for your vision to sharpen,
your physical mind/body/heart to find wholesomeness,  
and your lifework to take root in something enduring.

A Rare Convergence: Why This Mentoring Work is Different

​

I’m Ronda LaRue—author, mentor, artist, and long-time explorer of the deep inner life. For as long as I can remember, I have lived at the meeting point of two worlds that rarely walk together in such equal measure. It was both my greatest strength and my greatest confusion—this strong dual nature of mine:

Equally left- and right-brained.
Linear in logic, yet fluid in vision.
Trained in the precision of science, yet alive to the wild flow of intuition.
A business strategist and a working artist.
An extroverted introvert, equally at home in the boardroom and in the quiet sanctuary of the soul.

​

Much of my life’s journey—and its most meaningful successes—has been about learning how to wield these seemingly opposite tools toward a life of purpose, vitality, and creative expression. If you are here, I suspect some part of this resonates with you too.

​

My early career, fresh out of college and grad school, began in high-level business strategy and market innovation—guiding organizations toward clarity, influence, and lasting impact. And then, through heartbreak, loss, and moments of profound reckoning, I was drawn into the deeper work of the soul—into questions of meaning, healing, and what it truly means to live one’s purpose.

Today, nearing 70, I find myself weaving these strands into a next new vivid, living tapestry.

At this stage in my life, my work has become more about passing on what I have gained as life credo in action to empower and enable others to reach their own path of purpose and mastery. Today is it my honor to serve women, men, couples, and teams in integrating all parts of themselves—so they can live and lead from the wholeness of who they truly are and what is (just now) ready to take hold as their next pathway in a life Masterworking...

The Muse

​

Every turning point in life holds a time lost and where the heart waits...

In that terrible vastness sit both old tired worn know it alls of self

And new, overly frustrated but underly-tested parts of self:

An odd clashing calamity of business partners each arguing over the notes

and which instrument is the lead...

Until the great under stillness of Soul is suddenly heard humming a new next song

And the pieces and personalities and players come together a brand new debut.

​

...I have sat with CEOs at turning points,
and with artists at the edge of becoming.
In both, I have seen the same moment—
the stillness before a new next life Begins...

​

The work I offer to those deeply called to working with me, combine art and science, mind and soul, deep inner and outer listening, and entering into the co-creative cauldron of the unknown - a sacred place where visionary new works can emerge and show you the way to your own creative genius, expressed!

Stepping In to Step Out Anew:

​

For me, I believe that the truest work we may offer in this world begins with the courage to stop (or to be stopped!)  yet not to end the quest. It is what I call "The One Essential Journey"  It is a Journey of Soul: to uncover the pathway and to learn the art of taking this next strange cacophony of emergent voices, and letting them reveal a wholly new masterwork you could only be ready for, just now...
