Our Story: Why Good Carma

Our Story: Why Good Carma

Good Carma Consulting was founded on a simple truth: when you invest in people, the returns come back tenfold. Our name is both a nod to our founder, Cara, and to the ripple effect of good karma—because in HR, every action shapes tomorrow’s loyalty, performance, and growth.

We wanted our name to be a constant reminder of that cycle: that doing the right thing for people isn’t just the ethical choice, it’s also the smart business choice. That’s the essence of Good Carma.

What We Do?

HR should evolve with your business. That’s why we offer fractional HR services designed for nonprofits and startups—giving you expert-level strategy and support without the full-time cost.

Whether you need a trusted advisor to align your people strategy with your business goals, or hands-on support to streamline daily operations, we deliver creative, customized solutions built around your needs.

Why We’re Different

We’re not just HR professionals—we’re former sales leaders. We know that effective HR is about more than policies; it’s about influence, storytelling, and buy-in. From selling strategy to the C-suite to gaining employee engagement, we know how to turn ideas into action.

We also thrive in fast-paced, high-growth environments where flexibility matters most. Tight budgets? Processes that need reworking? We make it work—strategically, efficiently, and with creativity.

Your Partner in Growth

With Good Carma, you get more than HR support—you gain a partner who empowers your people, strengthens your operations, and helps you build sustainable success.

  • To redefine how small businesses access HR— by replacing outdated one-person models with specialized, people-first support that’s equitable, ethical, and built to scale. At Good Carma, we believe in karma —that the care and integrity we invest in people today creates lasting success for businesses tomorrow.

  • At Good Carma Consulting, our mission is to provide high-impact, fractional HR services through a collaborative team of experts—ensuring our clients get the right support, not just a single overextended generalist. We prioritize sustainable work, clear boundaries, and real relationships—with a focus on compliance, culture, and care. Because we know that when you put good karma into your workplace, it comes back as loyalty, performance, and growth.

  • Collaboration Over Isolation

    We reject the “one-person HR” myth. HR is too complex, too human, and too strategic to rely on a solo act. We lead with teamwork—both internally and with our clients—because shared effort creates better outcomes for everyone.

    Sustainable Support

    We take care of our people so we can take care of yours. That means honoring capacity, setting clear boundaries (like no Friday meetings), and ensuring access to real benefits. Healthy HR starts with a healthy HR team.

    Integrity Through Structure

    If we say we’ll do something, we do it. We design thoughtful systems that empower—not overwhelm—by defining urgency, establishing fair policies, and holding ourselves accountable.

    People-First, Always

    Employees are not “resources.” They’re people. We protect dignity at work, lead with empathy, and model people-centric practices for our clients. Generosity guides us: we always ask, what’s the best option for the employee?

    Authenticity in Action

    We bring our whole selves to work—it’s okay if a child pops up on camera or life spills into a meeting. We own our mistakes, give credit where it’s due, and embrace learning. We’re not afraid to take risks, speak up, or ask for help, knowing the next wave always brings another chance.

    Expertise That Evolves

    We are learners, educators, and builders. Our knowledge grows alongside the workforce, but our grounding stays the same: compliance, strategy, and people-first solutions.

    Working with Ease

    We believe nothing is so urgent it can’t be done with care and thoughtfulness. Like karma, the energy we put into our work comes back—calm, clarity, and confidence for our clients.
