WELCOME
WHERE HONEST CONNECTION MEETS TRANSFORMATION
At Mindful Kollaborative Strategies, we create spaces for people to pause, breathe, and reconnect with what is essential. Through retreats, workshops, yoga, guided mindful practices, and facilitation rooted in presence and honest communication, our work is guided by a simple truth: collaboration only works when we show up with authenticity, use truth as an act of care, and commit to the real work of transformation. It asks us to be present rather than on autopilot, connected rather than conveniently distant, and courageous rather than complacent.
We partner with people and organizations who are ready for more intentional ways of working and living. These are people who value meaningful dialogue, human connection, and practices that reduce burnout and create space for clarity and well-being. Whether the work is internal through retreats and workshops or external through training, technical assistance, and development writing, the approach is rooted in authenticity and compassion.
"I worked with Mary Kay Sergo on the development and implementation of a community-based Program in Florida, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Mary Kay's extensive experience in government and non-government sectors, combined with her expertise in policy development and program design, were critical to the success of our project. Her ability to communicate complex information in a clear and concise manner made her an invaluable partner throughout the process. Mary Kay worked collaboratively with us to tailor our program to meet the unique needs of our organization and the community we serve. Her commitment to improving outcomes for individuals and the community is inspiring, and I am grateful for the opportunity to have worked with her."

WHY WORK WITH US
Working with Mindful Kollaborative Strategies means partnering with someone who leads with unapologetic honesty, thoughtful insight, and genuine care. With over three decades of experience across entrepreneurial ventures, non-profit leadership, and government systems, I understand how complex environments operate and where challenges truly surface. I naturally see a wider view and how pieces align, including those others often overlook.
My approach is grounded in presence and awareness of what is happening beneath the surface. I bring a clear, direct communication style and a commitment to creating spaces where truth is treated as an act of care. Whether facilitating a retreat, designing a workshop, or supporting program development, the work is centered on well-being and transformation.
My background includes business ownership, non-profit leadership, and government experience. This includes owning and operating The Homestead 1854 for more than a decade, a historic wedding and wellness retreat venue where I led retreats, facilitated team-building experiences, and integrated mindful practices as a Registered Yoga Teacher. These experiences shape an approach that blends mindful practice with practical organizational understanding and reinforces that true collaboration requires shared responsibility, active participation, and a willingness to engage in the work.
