Aligning the fields within us to
transform the work around us
WHEN THE WAY WE WORK
HONORS WHO WE ARE,
EVERYTHING MOVES DIFFERENTLY
We created The Fifth Field to make that possible, for ourselves, our clients, and the future we’re all shaping.
This isn’t just what we do. It’s who we are.
KATE LABROSSE
Kate LaBrosse is a driver of clarity, alignment, and meaningful progress. She brings nearly two decades of leadership in the natural products industry, where she’s helped brands grow with integrity, positioned founders for breakout success, and led teams through moments of high-stakes decision-making and rapid change.
​
As a strategic advisor and former fractional CEO, Kate has guided emerging and established companies through product innovation, retail expansion, and organizational growth—always with an eye on both the business outcomes and the human systems underneath. She’s known for bringing structure where there’s noise, momentum where there’s friction, and grounded leadership to every room she enters.
​
Now, through The Fifth Field, Kate helps leaders and teams align what’s happening internally—mentally, emotionally, physically, and relationally—so they can move forward with real energy and cohesion. She believes that leadership today requires more than strategy; it requires presence, trust, and the ability to navigate complexity without losing what matters most.
Kate is direct, intuitive, and highly attuned to what helps teams function at their best. She knows how to ask the questions that unlock new insight and create space for meaningful transformation. Whether advising a founder, facilitating a leadership offsite, or supporting an organizational shift, she brings both rigor and care to the work.
​
Her mission is simple: help people build what only they can—clearly, powerfully, and in full alignment with what’s needed now.
CARLOTTA MAST
Carlotta Mast is a builder—of businesses, communities, teams, and movements. She leads with a steady belief in the innate goodness of people and the power of aligned, wholehearted leadership to transform how we work—and live. For more than 25 years, Carlotta has helped businesses and teams grow not just in size, but in soul, guiding them through complexity with clarity, care, and courage.
​
As a senior executive at Informa and New Hope Network, Carlotta led a $90M portfolio of events and media through profound disruption and renewal. She launched industry-leading initiatives in community-building, sustainability, and equity, forged long-standing partnerships and coalitions, and mentored rising leaders across the natural products ecosystem. Her work helped shape an industry that honors people, planet, and shared prosperity.
​
Now through The Fifth Field, Carlotta brings her experience and deep presence to work alongside leaders and teams ready to grow into who they need to be—for today’s world and for the future they want to help create. She believes real change happens when we align the full human system: when our thinking is grounded, our hearts are open, our health is supported, and our relationships are rooted in trust and mutual respect.
​
Carlotta is known for her calm presence, insightful visioning, and ability to create space where teams find new alignment, energy, and momentum. She brings both tenderness and strategic acuity to her work—meeting people where they are, helping them see what’s possible, and walking with them as they take the next brave step toward it.
