Where bold minds belong
We design psychology-backed experiences that reshape how people think, lead, and connect.
For minds that think in possibilities, not limitations.
Change isn't something you wait for.
It's something you design.
Our approach
We work at the intersection of psychology, neuroscience, culture, and leadership.
While others fixate on problems, we rethink environments and wire minds that naturally outperform the status quo.
In the simplest terms, we design spaces and experiences that create real change.
We don't fix people.
We build systems that fit them.
How we work together
Who this is for
Built for minds that don't fit
the mold
You ask big questions and don't follow formulas.
You're building something that matters: a team, a venture, yourself, a better way forward. Conventional approaches feel hollow. You need methods that match how you think.
Built for creatives who think across disciplines. Leaders breaking new ground. Minds who know there's a better way. Organizations shaping what comes next.
Our big idea
Psychological safety is the foundation for all human potential
Problem
Fear makes us play small. People hold back ideas to avoid judgment. Organizations mistake silence for agreement and compliance for commitment. What gets lost is not just innovation but the human capacity that creates it.
solution
Psychological safety changes everything. It turns discomfort into information, not danger. When people feel safe to stay real, whether in a conversation, a classroom, or a company, friction becomes fuel for growth.
outcome
The solutions to our most complex challenges already exist, locked inside people who don't feel safe enough to think beyond conventional boundaries.
"When someone walks into a Vonked experience, their body knows something is different before their brain catches up."
Leaders in human performance and transformation
Who we are: founders
Two generations.
One partnership.
Different minds with a shared obsession for what works. One brings decades of clinical psychology expertise. The other brings strategic innovation and systems thinking. Together, we design and facilitate experiences that reshape how people think and operate.
From individual coaching to live cognitive labs to organizational transformation: we don't just teach mental fitness. We live it.
Davis Vonk
A decade of neuropsychological testing taught Davis how minds work when they don't fit the mold. She creates spaces where brain science becomes behavioral change and belonging becomes possible.
Debra Kay, Ph.D.
Dr. Kay brings thirty years of clinical psychology to the art of helping people understand themselves. She creates spaces where clients make sense of their story, understand their motivations and talents, and discover their future direction.
Psychological safety and leadership design
Every decision is design.
Every choice carries power.
Most people design unconsciously. The question is whether you will.
