MASTER YOUR CHAOS
Master Your Chaos is a free, hands-on workshop where you'll explore how easily chaos can creep into your life and learn how to navigate it with clarity and intention. Using the Wheel of Life, you’ll reflect on where you are, clarify your goals for the year, and take the first step in building an organisational system to help you take control.
Ready to simplify your chaos? Join us and start designing the life you know you can have.
* Wheel of Life
Each participant gets an overview of their life and assesses their satisfaction in key areas, reflecting on where they want to be by the end of the year.
* Brain Dump
Then, the focus is on emptying their minds. They write down everything that’s cluttering their thoughts and turn it into a clear, week-by-week action plan they can actually follow.
The goal is to leave with a lighter mind, a clearer plan, and a taste of what it’s like to build a system with a no-BS approach to get your sh*t together.
Rafael Reis has spent over a decade exploring how to make better decisions in a chaotic reality.
His career is highly influenced by the entrepreneurial world, where he launched ventures, led teams, and eventually became Head of HR at Brave Generation Academy, a fast-growing startup backed by Shark Tank investor Tim Vieira. There, he helped manage 150 people and scale operations across 8 countries. Later, he joined Seekers, founded by Fred Canto e Castro, as Head of People to support the creation of the systems needed for a scale-up operation.
Driven by a passion for helping people navigate uncertainty, Rafael eventually founded Controlled Chaos, a consultancy that supports individuals and organisations to thrive in chaos. Using his knowledge of building businesses and his 500+ hours coaching and empowering entrepreneurs, leaders, and high-performers, he specialised in building personalised systems that simplify chaos, increase productivity, and help people unlock their full potential.
