You don’t need us to tell you the answers. You need us to discover and dissolve and barriers that are preventing you from accessing the answers.
Flow is trainable
We will give you the tools to get in the zone and maximize your skills. You’ll even master them in 1/2 the time!
Dynamic, inspirational speaking
Generating communitas for groups is Chris M. King’s specialty. Let’s get everyone energized and inspired!
Collaborative Flow for Teams
Teams in flow are intrinsically and extrinsically motivational. Intrinsic rewards of flow ― an autotelic experience. Extrinsic rewards ― productivity and creativity.
It’s Your Journey
Status Flow starts you on a path, where you take it is unique to your life, goals and skills.
Your locus of control
An internal locus of control means you believe you are the architect of your universe ― and you have the power to build it.
Our Team
Chris M. King, founder and pique-performance and flow coach
Pique-performance executive coach and speaker Chris M. King facilitates the journeys that lead to the discoveries that create sustainable transformations for professional organizations, teams, and individuals. Pre-packaged solutions have no value in discovery or innovation. He doesn’t show clients THE way or HIS way; he guides them in finding THEIR way.
Using his education in spiritual psychology and studies of neuroscience, Chris changes the way clients relate to their worlds to achieve a state of “flow” — what athletes call “the zone” — where they can renegotiate their existence. They experience exponential increases in leverage, innovation, and balance while eliminating burnout so they can run their businesses (and lives) instead of it running them. “When we make the unconscious conscious,” Chris says, “we make the impossible, and even the unimaginable, a reality.”
Chris has trained and collaborated with the best: the Flow Research Collective, the Flow Genome Project, David Bayer, Brendon Buchard, and SEAL Fit/Unbeatable Mind, and completed a master’s program in spirituality psychology at the University of Santa Monica. He also had the good fortune of spending time with and learning from Gene Kranz, NASA Flight Director for many Apollo and Gemini space missions. He is currently working with retired US Navy SEALs as he is committed to continuing to up his own game.
Chris has consulted on development programs such as Rise Up For You!® and Zen Warrior Training®, has been a featured panelist for Allison Armstrong’s Understanding Men® seminars, and is a featured SUE Talks® presenter for, and member of, Connected Women of Influence®. He is an “initiated man” through Mankind Project International® and is a contributing featured author for The Good Men Project® and Elephant Journal®. His first book, Renegotiate Your Existence: Unlock Your Impossible Life, is due in April 2021.
Dr. Anna Ponomarenko, pique-performance executive coach
Dr. Anna Ponomarenko is a change management expert with a background in the mental health field. She has her doctorate in psychology, organizational management and consulting.
After receiving her undergraduate degree in psychology from UCSB, Anna converted her family property and oversaw the foundational stages of a family business’ transition into a high-end addiction treatment facility located deep in the Santa Cruz mountains where she recognized countless inefficiencies in how behavioral health companies operated their businesses. This led her to her doctorate in psychology, with an emphasis on organization management and consulting.
Anna developed the Organizational Integrity Model that is based on the premise of an organization that is aligned with what it says and does, while also having the courage to admit when you’re wrong.
This model can be systematically applied throughout an organization, where a company can consistently evaluate and revisit its core principles, ensuring alignment with those throughout every level.
Anna thrives in the world of startup companies due to their intensity, risk factors, opportunities, and potential for growth. She values honest feedback as a cornerstone and research-based practice over all else.
Tara Sindler, LMFT, SEP, CADC-II
Tara has her own private therapy practice and works with Status Flow exclusively on our Couples Coaching Programs.
The type of clients she is best able to help are those who want to live in a mindful and connected way, and who want to live freely and with more depth. You’ll benefit from working with Tara if you’re willing to take ownership of the parts of yourself that you don’t like and meet it with compassion and skillfulness. Her best-fit clients also want more self-awareness, enjoy learning, are optimistic, and are willing to take risks.

- Self-motivation

Avi began his career as a coach working with older teens and young adults in a system of recovery houses in Los Angeles. He gained skills in understanding and supervising the residents in an 18 to 24-month program and began to lead and direct peer groups within the residences for 11 years.
Avi advanced to positions as program manager, program director and as a director of operations, while continuing to provide group and individual counseling.
