Edge of Legacy™
1:1 CEO Advising for Visionary Leaders
Entering Their Final Evolution
You’ve built the empire.
Now it’s time to shape the legacy.
Edge of Legacy™ is a high-touch, invite-only advisory experience for CEOs navigating the most powerful (and private) transition of their careers.
The Quiet Truth No One’s Ever Said to You—Until Now
At this stage, it’s not about building more.
It’s about becoming more discerning about what you build—and who you become in the process.
You’ve done everything right.
Built a business with care. Scaled it with vision. Protected it like family.
But something deeper is stirring:
You’re still holding too much.
Your team isn’t rising fast enough.
Culture feels performative, not alive.
And truthfully? You don’t feel safe stepping away—even for a week.
The business has become a reflection of the
leader you were.
Not the visionary you are becoming.
And here’s the part that no one else sees: You’re grieving.
Not just the weight of leadership, but the reality that the next evolution might require you to let go of the very identity that got you here.
That’s not failure. That’s the edge of legacy.
Not every advisor can meet a legacy-level leader at their edge.
Christie Turley Can.
Most executive coaches offer playbooks.
Christie offers precision. Presence. And a pulse on power most leaders haven’t been trained to hold.
With over 20 years advising CEOs and leadership teams behind multi-billion-dollar organizations—and personally building and scaling multi-million-dollar companies of her own—Christie Turley is the rare kind of strategic partner that other coaches call when the stakes are too high for guesswork. She doesn’t just sharpen your leadership—she expands your legacy.
She’s served on multiple Boards of Advisors, been trusted inside both Fortune 500 boardrooms and fast-growth founder war rooms, and brings a catalytic insight into founder transitions, generational shifts, and legacy-stage reinvention.
Her unique edge includes:
Strategic Systems Thinking. From scaling ventures to advising billion-dollar brands, Christie blends top-tier business acumen with an unmatched emotional radar—helping legacy leaders shift how they scale, show up, and shape culture from the inside out.
Psychological Precision. With formal training in Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Clinical Hypnotherapy, she helps leaders rewire patterns, unlock unclaimed power, and align their energy with the kind of impact that lasts.
People & Cultural Intelligence. Christie doesn’t just work at the strategy level—she reads team energy, silent power plays, and cultural codes like most people read spreadsheets. Her insight turns complexity into clarity—and tension into traction.
Leadership Presence Engineering. As the architect behind the groundbreaking Velocity Method™ + EDGE Framework™ systems, Christie helps leaders step into the next chapter of influence—without losing what made them powerful in the first place.
Edge of Legacy™ isn't just about what you build next. It's about who you become while leading it. And Christie is the coach who meets you at that exact threshold.
“It’s like having a strategist, a mirror, and an emotional translator in your pocket.”
— Legacy CEO, Public Infrastructure
Confidentiality & Executive Discretion
All communication and coaching are held under strict confidentiality. Christie acts not just as a coach—but as your strategic confidante, energetic recalibrator, and cultural translator.
"Christie has the rare ability to decode what’s really going on—beneath the surface, behind the politics, and inside the leader themselves. She’s not just a strategist. She’s a catalyst."
— Past Client, C-Suite Executive
You don’t need more frameworks.
You need a mirror that won’t flinch.

Untangle from outdated roles, control patterns, and bottleneck behaviors

YOUR FOUR-PHASE ROADMAP**
Tailored to your tenure, mission, and transformation arc.
**Please Note: We reject one-size-fits-all playbooks... those one-size-fits-all templates that ignore political nuance, prioritize metrics over energetic timing or tell leaders to "disrupt" without measuring consequences. These are dangerous for CEOs in legacy systems where trust is currency and influence is subtle. So we don’t offer a “playbook.” We offer a strategic recalibration journey—tailored, relational, and context-driven.
Phase 1: Empowered
EDGE Phase: Empowered
Core Intelligences: Intuition + Instinct
“I know I need to change.”
This is where the quiet reckoning begins. Burnout, grief, and misalignment are no longer ignored—they’re named. You begin releasing the roles, masks, and patterns that no longer fit. You start listening to the leader beneath the performance.
Breakthroughs:
Emotional honesty
Identity recalibration
Energy restoration
Phase 2: Decisive
Core Intelligences: Instinct + Impact
“I can’t protect what I won’t confront.”
Here, you reclaim your authority—not from ego, but from clarity. You remove legacy blockers. Draw stronger boundaries. You stop tolerating what you once justified—and make room for what’s next.
Breakthroughs:
Cultural alignment
Succession strategy
Boundaries that scale
Phase 3: Grounded
Core Intelligences: Intelligence + Instinct
“I’m building a culture that holds itself.”
This is the infrastructure phase. Systems become self-sustaining. Meetings shift from reactive to real. You begin mentoring instead of managing. The culture becomes coherent, consistent—and independent.
Breakthroughs:
Scalable systems
Cultural accountability
Leadership bench development
Phase 4: Expansive
Core Intelligences: Imagination + Impact + Intuition
“I am no longer the gravity.”
The final evolution. You reclaim the joy of vision. You become a guide—not a gatekeeper. You’re free to create again… from a place of peace, not pressure.
Breakthroughs:
CEO Brand & Public Authority Blueprint
Vision Narrative + Boardroom Strategy Lab
Mentorship Mapping: Building Internal Bench Strength
Legacy Audit + Final Recalibration Session
OPTIONAL ADD-ONS (By Invitation)
Private Leadership Offsite Facilitation
Quarterly Board Communication Briefs
Custom Cultural Diagnostic Report
for the CEO-Founder who…
Built the company from the ground up—and still feels responsible for every thread
Has a strong team… but isn’t sure they’re truly ready to lead without them
Is quietly exhausted by being the hero, the fixer, the culture cop
Has outgrown performance-based leadership and is ready for presence-based legacy
Secretly craves a wise confidant, not another coach with a playbook
This is Not For...
Leaders who want a plug-and-play playbook
Ego-driven CEOs chasing spotlight over systems
Leaders unwilling to examine how they lead
Organizations resistant to team or cultural evolution
You didn’t come this far to repeat what’s already been done.
At this stage of leadership, your next mountain isn’t external. It’s internal. Energetic. Cultural. Legacy-shaped. This is the shift from being the business… to
building something that lives beyond you.
The truth is: You’re not stepping back. You’re stepping fully into the version of leadership only your future deserves.
