About

Carley Montgomery

Founder of the Sanctuary Standard

The Early Days

Carley grew up in Orange County California into a family of Construction Professionals. Being on construction sites since she was a young child, transforming environments was engrained into Carley’s earliest behavioral patterns. 

Birth of The Sanctuary Standard

Realizing that with the deployment of Sanctuary as a service she was also establishing a standard for Human dwelling that needed to exist at the Human Rights level and be more accessible than to those who can afford to pay for a service, Carley codified the Standard, and today, Sanctuary occupies P.O.S.T. #SANCTUARY in the Human Potential Index. that her groundbreaking service is based on, in order to codify it. 

“POST means “Potential Optimizing Solution Treatise” - and Carley’s Sanctuary is not only one of the first ventures registered as a POST on the HPI (Human Potential Index), but it’s one of the most important. So much is riding on adequate housing for all people that it’s difficult to fathom. We all need to subscribe to Sanctuary standards for our homes and everyplace we spend time. A tremendous amount of our individual and collective Human Potential is riding on it.”

Phase II - World Traveler

With her construction footing already granting her the mobility to satisfy her wanderlust, Carley took to seeing the world, achieving a greater level of wellness than she’d ever known. 

Carley realized that especially in the United States, market forces have caused us to live in such a way that there’s a disconnect between the way we live, and how we SHOULD be living, and that’s what’s behind everything wrong with us. This reoccurring epiphany is ultimately what fueled her passion for the intersection of construction and wellness, but further, the development of Sanctuary, her future-facing service that transitions her clients into a new life, complete with transformative retreats in Central America, and a completely renovated, clean, organized, toxin free home when you return.
