Meet Chelsea Goucher, a local treasure in Ketchikan, Alaska. Growing up in the area, she has a special bond with the people and the place, and it shines through in her work. Known for her dedication and drive in the non-profit sector, Chelsea's time as the Executive Director of the Ketchikan Chamber of Commerce is a shining example of her leadership abilities and love for the community.



In addition to her work at the Chamber of Commerce, Chelsea also gives back to the community through her involvement in various volunteer boards, including the Southeast Conference. This organization focuses on economic development in Southeast Alaska and helps to promote the growth and success of local businesses and communities.


But Chelsea's passion for making a difference doesn't stop there. Along with her business partner, Jenn Brown, she co-owns Foraged & Found. This company is committed to promoting local food security and self-reliance by using sustainably harvested wild Alaskan ingredients, such as bullwhip kelp and sea asparagus, and showcasing their unique flavors and health benefits to the world.


At Foraged & Found, Chelsea and Jenn turn these ingredients into delicious pantry staples, like sauces, salsas, and pickles. Not only do they provide a taste of the Alaskan wilderness, but they also help to diversify the local economy and support the community.


Chelsea has no doubt accomplished much in her life, yet, like many of us, she has faced difficulties with self-doubt and limiting beliefs. Her fear of being judged is rooted in a childhood experience that has followed her and prevented her from reaching her full potential. Despite her numerous achievements, this fear has been a persistent force in her life, affecting her decisions and limiting her ability to truly shine.


Fortunately, Chelsea has taken the necessary steps to overcome her fear and regain control. The Mental and Emotional Release process has provided her with the tools to let go of the limiting beliefs and self-doubt that were holding her back. This has empowered her to be her authentic self, unafraid, and fully prepared to continue making a difference in her community.


Chelsea has only proven her unwavering spirit. Despite the challenges she faced, she remained steadfast in her determination to break free from her limiting beliefs. Her perseverance and resilience in the face of adversity have inspired those around her and serve as a reminder that it is possible to overcome life's challenges and reach one's full potential. Her unwavering commitment and dedication are a testament to her passion for making a positive impact in her community, and her journey to self-discovery and empowerment is a story that will continue to inspire others for years to come.
