About
A Conduit of change
Rooted in an inventive legacy—her grandfather pioneered latex paint—Cass Redstone has built a career defined by innovation, operational discipline, and visionary leadership. A seasoned entrepreneur and early trailblazer in addressing gender bias, she has driven inclusive, transformative change for over three decades. She pairs sharp business acumen with a compassionate, strategic mind—consistently challenging the status quo to create new models of excellence.
Cass’s path has been both expansive and unconventional: she photographed the POTUS, pioneered Seattle’s first LGBTQ wedding show, performed stand-up comedy in Berlin, climbed Cotopaxi, and walked 500 miles across Spain. She has continually reinvented herself, no matter the circumstances. Her breadth—and her depth—set her apart.
She was raised in a family of intellectuals. Her father, a renowned professor of education, and her mother, an elementary school principal who pioneered Cooperative Education, instilled in her a deep respect for research, data, and teaching. In that environment, Cass learned early that without evidence, even the most powerful ideas struggle to be heard.
Cass loved her family’s cabin in Central Washington, perched high above the forest with nobody for miles around. It was there that she formed a deep personal connection to nature—her first spiritual connection outside of her dreams. The forest became a refuge for her intuitive senses to emerge, helping shape the environmental awareness and inner connection essential to her personal flow state.
A talented athlete, Cass’s family believed she would pursue sports professionally—a pathway that got shut down due to injury. Movement has always been central to her expression—a key ingredient in Flow State. With both her grandfather and mother being excellent dancers, she inherited a deep sense of rhythm and physical awareness—something she has carried with her throughout her life.
Creativity became Cass's profession, she built a highly successful commercial photography career in Seattle, spending nearly two decades traveling the world photographing and filming people from all walks of life. Specializing in portrait and lifestyle work, she collaborated with some of the most recognized names and brands globally. At the height of her success, Cass made a pivotal shift—stepping away from her commercial career to address gender bias in the workplace. Driven by a lifelong commitment to supporting women and girls, she founded the nonprofit Women Get Shit Done and began a documentary project exposing systemic inequities. Through that work, she developed a new framework for systemic change—turning away from commercial success to pursue meaningful impact.
It was there that her life took a radical turn. On the verge of launching her Gender Bias Free product, her business partner unexpectedly took control of the company and locked her out—ending the partnership without explanation. The shock, betrayal, shame, and public discrediting of her name broke her. A move she could not comprehend in business unfolded overnight.
What followed was a nine-year, unscripted journey—during which she built her own compass, connecting herself to a custom wisdom channel. A non-linear, strategic connection that never ends. She tapped into a permanent flow state—a powerful phenomenon that countless athletes, creatives, executives, inventors, and researchers throughout history have tried to capture. Until now.
She found her true calling—and it was and still is fascinating.
Her path here was anything but ordinary. It was forged through loss, reinvention, and radical listening—walking away from old identities to follow a very specific calling: to see what others cannot yet see, bring future potential into the present, and unlock human capability at its earliest stages.
She spent the last four years in San Francisco, developing Flow State Training™—a first-of-its-kind system for inducing, measuring, and sustaining flow. It tracks brain-state coherence using EEG and visual analysis while training intuition through precise, customizable protocols.
The aim is to develop dancers who are not only technically exceptional, but also clear, resilient, and fully integrated. Through this work, Cass is designing tools and products that track flow in real time—giving individuals the ability to adapt, recalibrate, and consistently return to their highest state of performance and alignment.
Cass’s mission is to work with adolescent ballet dancers—and the Ballet leaders and institutions ready for the next evolution—to help change the face of ballet. Her long-term goal is to make these tools accessible worldwide.
"Flow State Training is not mystical—it is measurable, trainable, and precise. We quantify flow, replicate it under pressure, and build customized tools that reliably return dancers to their peak state."
