Sandra Sobanska
Alignment work for individuals and teams advancing AI safety.
I help people, partnerships, and ecosystems come into alignment with what's true.
What is Alignment Work
In the feminine wisdom traditions, alignment is the work of bringing body, mind, and soul into one rhythm.
In AI safety, it is the work of keeping powerful technology aligned with life.
I bridge these by supporting individuals and teams who are driving our AI safety efforts to find more internal alignment.
I believe that’s one overlooked way we can gain more time.
About Me
I'm an independent researcher and practitioner at the intersection of feminine wisdom and AI alignment.
My work draws from 7+ years as a founding PM in impact-driven startups and 3+ years of studying relational & embodiment practices, emergent group facilitation and ancient wisdom traditions.
I am most passionate about supporting highly agentic leaders and contributors in becoming more aligned with their values and deep potential.

Identifying Misalignment
Generating Alignment

My Lineage
I grew up in Poland and moved to Hong Kong for university where I studied business & technical project management. My early idols were Ayn Rand and Milton Friedman.
Startups. Over 7+ years I built 2 teams from scratch, created 100+ member communities, designed onboarding experiences and participated in intensive incubator programs at Stanford and University College London. I absorbed the Lean Startup model and thrived in 0 to 1 environments.
Relationality. After seeing two teams fall apart due to people problems and experiencing burnout, I went on a sabbatical to explore relational modalities and alignment.
