Our Story
‘I always wanted to work in a place where everyone felt included’.
Sharlene’s story begins not at the inception of True Ally, but during her tenure at a leading mental health organization. It was here, amidst the challenges of an environment marked by a stifling hierarchy and cultural toxicity, that Sharlene’s vision for a different kind of workplace began to take shape. Faced with a system resistant to change and a voice that struggled to be heard, Sharlene experienced the very realities she now works to eradicate.
A resilient leader and advocate, Sharlene stood at the crossroads between enduring the status quo and igniting a transformation. She chose the latter. Her departure from the organization was not an end but a catalyst for a new mission — one to redefine the essence of a healthy workplace, from the ground up.
As a Black woman, Sharlene’s perspective is enriched by the diversity of her experiences, driving her to champion inclusivity and authenticity in the corporate realm. Her vision is straightforward yet profound: crafting a world where every employee, regardless of their background, can flourish.

Envisioning Tomorrow’s Workspace
As the importance of mental health gains recognition in the corporate world, True Ally champions a future where each employee steps into the workplace not just equipped with skills but also embraced for their whole self—where ‘human-being’ isn’t a role left at the door, but the essence of the work environment.
The pandemic has irrevocably woven work with life, and our vision is a workplace that honors this blend with grace and empathy. No longer are personal identity and professional ambition on parallel tracks—they merge, creating a vibrant path forward. In this future, employees thrive in authenticity, celebrate diversity, and are empowered by a culture that sees them fully, respects their humanity, and rewards their individuality.
At True Ally, we foresee organizations where emotional intelligence is the norm, and leadership thrives on transparency and genuine connections. Where success is not just about the bottom line but about fostering growth that is inclusive, equitable, and holistic.
This is the future of work as we see it—a future we are dedicated to building today. A future where everyone, regardless of their background, can show up as their true selves, contribute meaningfully, and ascend without barriers. It’s a future not just imagined, but one we’re actively shaping, one workshop, one conversation, one enlightened policy at a time.
