About Renée
Renée Dineen is a best-selling author, TEDx & motivational speaker, and founder of the SoulFULL Living Community, a coaching and consulting platform dedicated to doing the deepest work with those who never thought they could. Prior to launching her own practice, Renée spent 20 years in executive level HR roles in the high tech and biotech industries, including five years working and living overseas in Switzerland.
As an international thought leader playing at the intersection of business, leadership, psychology and well-being, Renée travels around the world coaching and advising leaders and teams how to navigate risk, change and growth while fueling the soul of the organizations and cultures they shape. She has dedicated her career exploring human nature to understand how we can all live with greater purpose, joy and grace.
Renée also coaches students and executives seeking deeper work and life meaning at at two prestigious universities--Stanford University and IMD (International Management Development) in Lausanne, Switzerland.
Renée has presented on dozens of global stages, been the guest on numerous podcasts and has been featured in high profile media publications such as Fortune, Financial Times Elephant Journal and Ladders. Most recently Renée coauthored “The Art & Truth of Transformation for Women” that quickly became an Amazon International Best Seller.
In February 2020, Renée took her own story to the TedX stage. Her talk titled ‘Authentic Inaction™: Undoing the Doing in a Do Crazy World’ is an account of her own trials and tribulations as a “doing addict” and workaholic. Her talk has already reached 600K views and supports her mission to revolutionize the way we work, play & relate to one another and our purpose.
Renée holds a Masters Degree in Organizational Psychology. Her coaching approach borrows from numerous coaching accreditations, including the gold-standard International Coaching Federation accreditation. Today, Renée lives in Sacramento, California with her husband, Sean, two teenagers and their beloved dog Atlas. As a family, they are fueled by their passion for travel, which includes 50+ countries and counting.
“What drives Renée above all is the opportunity to reduce human and organizational suffering and equip people from all walks of life, to live with greater purpose, grace, freedom and joy. She continues to pursue and prioritize this in her own life as well. ”
Recovering Workaholic
As a recovering workaholic and doing junky that left a $1,000,000/year executive role in Biotech to do work in the world that mattered most to her heart without sacrificing the whole of her life, today Renée runs her own global coaching and consulting practice out of California. She spends at least 25% of her time working with non-profits and topics related to women and leadership.
