Cynthia Platero, CPC, CLDS, ELI-MP

Cynthia Platero is a certified executive coach, creative strategist, and energetic guide for high‑achieving creatives and leaders who are ready to start leading from what feels true.

With more than a decade of experience in human resources, finance, and arts nonprofit board leadership - including serving as Board Chair - Cynthia brings a rare blend of strategic clarity, intuitive depth, and creative insight to her work. Her background gives her a grounded understanding of how people think, lead, and make decisions under pressure, and she integrates that with a deeply human, psychologically attuned coaching approach.

Cynthia helps clients reconnect with the part of themselves they’ve muted - the creative, instinctive, honest part that knows exactly who they are and what they want. Through a thoughtful, collaborative process, she guides people to clarify their “why,” name what’s been holding them back, and shift the energy behind their choices so they can move forward with clarity instead of pressure.

Her approach is rooted in creativity, fearlessness, and discipline. She supports clients in thinking more clearly, feeling more connected, and making decisions that align with the life and work they actually want. Whether someone is navigating a creative pursuit, a professional transition, or a new chapter in their life, Cynthia helps them turn challenges into catalysts for growth.

Cynthia resides in Texas. Outside of her coaching practice, she is an aerial dance artist who tells stories through original acts - a practice that mirrors her philosophy of listening inward, moving with intention, and creating from truth.
