Why we exist
At Deep Breath, our mission is simple but transformative: we want to make your work easier.

Work is hard, but does how we work need to be? With 20+ years of collective experience scaling how teams work, we've learned how to utilize tools, frameworks, and best practices to pinpoint opportunities for ease, efficiency, and impact.

We want to free your team from the complexities of designing and implementing workflows, so that you can focus on serving your customers and achieving your goals.

We'll partner with you to understand how your business runs, design the workflows that fit how your teams work best, and train them on how to take advantage of tools to save them time. We'll even help you gather insights on how the work is progressing — ensuring that every task, deadline, and collaboration happens seamlessly.

So take a deep breath, we're here for you.

Who we are
Deep Breath isn’t just another consulting firm— we design solutions that get adopted and teams actually like.

We've been on both ends of inefficient processes and know how painful it can be. We use that experience and our expertise in tools like Asana to create workflow infrastructure that works.

We know Asana inside and out because we built and deployed it. As former leaders at Asana, we designed and developed the tools and workflows that powers some of the world's best customers. We’ve spent years working closely with businesses to optimize how their processes are built, and now we want to help you.
