the roots of Recalibrate
I’m Gloria Chan Packer and this is my “why” behind founding Recalibrate in 2018.
My journey to Recalibrate was an unexpected one. I joke that I was an expert in stress before an expert in mental wellness because I spent a long career in the high-stress hustle. I’m a former Senior Engagement Manager in management consulting at Sense Corp, recently acquired by CGI. In my consulting career, I owned a multi-million-dollar P&L, directed program delivery for concurrent projects, and worked directly with Fortune 50 to 500 CXOs in technical, strategic, and operational capacities. A sample of my previous clients include Comcast, UnitedHealth Group, Spectrum, and USAA . Prior to consulting, I also spent a few years in corporate finance and mergers & acquisitions.
In late 2017, I had a very unexpected medical battle with chronic migraines. Despite physicians’ recommendations to try mindfulness to manage stress, I was skeptical and locked into my high-stress habits. I tried all kinds of medication, but nothing stuck — until I decided to re-evaluate my skepticism towards mindfulness and gave it another shot. After learning about the neuroscience behind mindfulness, mental health, and beginning therapy, things started to click for me.
Through this experience, I realized how much of a gap there was in mental wellness education that was science-backed and relatable to high-achieving professionals — especially in a modern culture where we wear stress as a badge of honor, but stigmatize slowing down or taking care of ourselves. So, in 2018, I opened Recalibrate, on a mission to help busy professionals foster healthier minds by teaching science over stigma. It has been an honor to grow our team and work to reach clients worldwide since our founding.
