Build Powerful Habits for a Positive Mind

Most attempts at positive change fail because we stop at insight and don't build habits. Sustained change towards a more positive mind requires laying down neural pathways to form new habits through consistent daily practice. And that's what our program design empowers you to do.

This revolutionary coaching program is designed to help you create custom stress-busting strategies that work for you. Based on the principles of positive psychology, Positive Intelligenceยฎ or PQ coaching gives you the insights, motivation, and structure you need to make lasting changes in your life.

With our Positive Intelligence program, youโ€™ll be diving into your own understanding of Emotional Intelligence and receive personalized guidance, attention and support from a certified coach who will support you through the program.

Our PQ program is structured like a mental fitness bootcamp, with an app-guided practice sessions that only takes 15 minutes per day for 6 weeks. But unlike a traditional bootcamp, PQ is tailored specifically to your needs and goals.

So if you're looking for a way to reduce stress, improve your well-being, and achieve your goals, Positive Intelligenceยฎ Mental Fitness Coaching is the perfect solution for you. Get started today and see the results for yourself!

"This has been the most impactful training I ever experienced. You develop powerful mental muscles to deal with challenges with much less stress and greater clarity, creativity, and resilience.

PQ (your Positive Intelligence Quotient) is the measure of your Mental Fitness. It's one of the best predictors of how happy you are and how well you could be performing relative to your potential.

And the good news is: you can boost your PQ significantly with practice. PQ is a synthesis of recent breakthroughs in neuroscience, cognitive and positive psychology, and performance science.

Reframe situations and then respond in a way that is in alignment with your values. Happiness builds when our Sage reactions outweigh our Saboteurs reactions 3 to 1.

Our end game in working together is increased happiness in all professional and personal facets of life

Why does this program work?

PQ program vs. traditional training

Traditional training and development tends to have short-lived impact for 3 reasons:  

  • Focus on insight rather than muscle. For example, the insight that being frustrated isn't helpful doesnโ€™t automatically lead to you not feeling frustrated. That would require mental muscles to shift brain activation.

  • Treating symptoms rather than cause. For example, teaching you techniques of active listening to improve empathy will have temporary impact if your deeply-seated Judge Saboteur is not exposed and intercepted.

  • No common operating system. Since each training you attend uses a different frameworkโ€”the 7 steps of managing conflict, the 5 secrets of managing time, etc.--the frameworks compete for mindshare and all fade away.

Through extensive factor analysis research, PQ has identified the 10 root-level negative factors (Saboteurs) and the 5 primary powers (Sage). This enables a common operating system.  

All personal and professional development become applications of the PQ operating system. Whether learning to manage conflicts, manage time, or perform better under pressure, youโ€™d apply the same exact operating system: 

  • Intercept Saboteurs

  • Issue Self-Command (through 10-second PQ Reps)

  • Mobilize Sage (Empathize, Explore, Innovate, Navigate, Activate)

Youโ€™d be using one simple framework for a variety of applications, boosting root-level mental fitness and dramatically simplify your personal and professional development.
