About The Book

In Alchemy of Chaos, Christine Owenell offers a radical guide for harnessing the power of the unknown by applying alchemical principles to the chaotic gauntlets of modern leadership and soulful flourishing.

Chaos. Destruction. Disorder. Confusion. It’s everything most try to avoid.

But should it be? Are you willing to entertain another perspective?

As a sought-after executive advisor to visionary leaders and power brokers in business, entertainment, and culture, Christine Owenell explores an unconventional approach to leadership that utilizes chaos—both internal and external— as a tool to support growth, expand perspective, and hone mastery.

Her debut book, Alchemy of Chaos, aims to crystalize and develop what is required to lead in times of uncertainty. It reframes chaos as an essential natural phenomenon that can be leveraged to create new pathways of thought, action, and possibility.

Drawing upon archetypal psychology, ancient wisdom, ontological philosophy, and personal insights, she posits that a full embrace of the turbulent unknown will drive our evolution as individuals and as a society.

Alchemy of Chaos is a book brimming with the possibility of a robust experience found within unexpected avenues. It guides you through an exploration of these avenues so you may mobilize your best resources and walk your unique path of self-actualization no matter the circumstances.

Learning how to harness the power of the unknown is fundamentally transformative. On this pathway, you discover that true innovation happens in provocative ways, and that to create from beyond the known, you must first see what is here. This is a journey of paradox and perspective.

Mystery activates us. Contrast defines us. Wonder moves us. All these things are the fabric of chaos.
