Corporate Wellness & Human Performance

Your Team Doesn’t Need More Pressure.
They Need a Better Way to Perform Under It.

When stress, scattered attention, and constant urgency become the norm, even capable people struggle to focus, communicate clearly, and make effective decisions.

CIELO helps employees and leaders recognize what is happening internally, shift their state in real time, and return to their work with greater focus, intention, and control.

Build focus. Lead through pressure. Sustain performance.

The real bottleneck

The Problem Isn’t Always a Lack of Skill

Your people may already know what they need to do. But knowing what to do and being internally prepared to do it are not the same thing.

When employees and leaders are operating under chronic stress, it can appear as:

  • Constant multitasking without meaningful progress
  • Difficulty focusing or completing priority work
  • Reactive communication and avoidable conflict
  • Procrastination, resistance, and decision fatigue
  • Reduced creativity and problem-solving
  • Disengagement, exhaustion, and frequent absences
  • Leaders who understand the strategy but lack the capacity to execute it effectively

Another productivity tool will not solve a problem created by the way people are functioning under pressure. CIELO addresses what happens before the behavior — so your people can respond differently when it matters.

The CIELO Framework

Regulation Is the Gateway — State Before Strategy.

A practical process for understanding the internal patterns affecting performance, and using breathwork, meditation, and metacognition to respond more intentionally.

C

Comprehend

Understand what is happening in the brain, body, and nervous system under pressure.

I

Identify

Recognize stress patterns, triggers, and performance barriers as they occur.

E

Engage

Use breathwork, meditation, and metacognition to shift state in real time.

L

Lead

Choose an intentional response and lead yourself or others effectively through pressure.

O

Optimize

Build habits and environments that support sustainable performance.

Understand Recognize Shift Lead Sustain

What Changes When People Can Shift Their State?

Greater focus and more intentional use of attention Improved productivity and task completion Clearer decision-making under pressure More thoughtful communication and response control Stronger leadership presence Greater awareness of stress and burnout patterns Practical tools for recovering and refocusing More sustainable individual and team performance

This is not about eliminating every stressful situation. It is about helping people recognize what is happening, create space before reacting, and intentionally choose what happens next.

One Experience Can Create a Powerful Shift

But sustainable change requires reinforcement. A single session helps participants see and experience something differently. Deeper training helps them practice the framework, apply it to workplace challenges, and build more consistent habits.

ABOUT ME

Meet Cielo Stein

Cielo M. Stein, MBA, is the founder and CEO of CLOO — a multidisciplinary human performance and organizational development company based in Louisville, Kentucky, operating across three interconnected divisions: CLOO Performance (B2B corporate training, keynote speaking, and the CIELO Protocol), CIELO Entertainment (experiential event production, cultural programming, and Latin dance studio), and SelFISH x CLOO (artisan skincare and ritual wellness products).

With a B.S. from the University of Louisville and an MBA from Bellarmine University, Cielo brings a rare combination of academic rigor, clinical breathwork training, and high-performance sales experience to every engagement. She spent years in pharmaceutical and specialty sales achieving consistent top national rankings and President’s Club recognition — before channeling that expertise into building CLOO as a science-backed business performance platform.

At the core of her work is the CIELO Protocol — a proprietary 12-week nervous system training program that integrates peer-reviewed EEG neuroscience, measurable biometric benchmarks, and evidence-based breathwork practices to produce quantifiable improvements in human performance. The Protocol is designed for executives, sales professionals, and organizational teams who need to perform under pressure, regulate stress in real time, and lead from clarity rather than fear.

Cielo is a member of the BBB Greater Louisville Board of Directors, a Louisville Mayor’s Office Flagship Cultural Events Partner, a Table Host for the 100 Wise Women Leadership Louisville Center (2026), and has been featured in WDRB News as Louisville’s premier voice on somatic science and executive resilience. She holds active government contracting registrations including SAM.gov federal registration and Women-Owned and Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB) designations.

Her keynote presentations are delivered at the intersection of neuroscience, leadership, and lived experience — making complex somatic science immediately accessible and actionable for corporate audiences, HR leaders, and high-performance teams.
