“Motherhood is hard, and it doesn’t go away”

• What is Positive Intelligence®? 

The PQ® Program is a mental fitness program that enables better health, performance, and positive relationships. Learn more about it here. 

• How does it apply to my situation? 

This framework (or this operating system as we like to call it) can be applied to any situation where you find yourself experiencing negative emotions, especially when the circumstances are difficult. As we know, having children comes with a set of challenges, some small, some big, but together enough to throw us off for days or even weeks. This programme helps you recover faster and become much more resilient.

• Can I work with you without doing the Positive Intelligence® Programme?

You can, but reaching the same objectives will probably take us much longer. I chose to include this as the foundation of my programme for good reason. I have experienced a huge transformation myself after doing it, despite having years of therapy, coaching and self-discovery behind me. I believe in it, and I know it is your best chance at changing how you view your life.

• How long does the coaching programme last and how often do we meet?

This is a 4-5 month programme (depending on the rhythm we meet in) that includes 12 coaching sessions.  The first seven weeks are weekly sessions in a one-on-one or a group setting, followed by five one-on-one sessions to apply the mental fitness foundations to reach your health and wellbeing goals.

• What kind of issues will be addressed?

I am confident that I can help you feel more calm and fulfilled. You will be able to deal with stressful and unexpected situations in a much better way. With a stronger mental fitness you will also experience an improvement in your overall health. We can address things like poor eating habits/emotional eating, sleep, self-care, and more, depending. on your own needs and unique situation.

You can if you want to. A coach is not a therapist but these two modalities compliment each other and can be used in parallel. As your coach, I am your ally and do not hold an expert stance.  The coaching approach is more solution and future-oriented. I have worked with people who have never been to therapy, who used to be in therapy and who currently are in therapy. They all benefited from the coaching relationship. I wrote a blog post about it here. 

I am confident that with this one, you will. First of all, you are initially encouraged to practice daily to start developing new neural pathways. We meet on a weekly basis. Most importantly, Positive Intelligence® will help you understand why you don’t usually follow through and what to do about it so that it doesn’t happen again.

Weight loss is not a goal in itself. You will never get a calorie-restrictive food plan from me. However, as your coach I can certainly help you understand the possible causes of your weight gain and help you apply lifestyle changes accordingly. Rest assured; more often than not, weight loss is one of the many positive consequences you will experience.

I don’t. Anyone who is a health coach without any further qualifications and sells supplements is not someone you would want to work with. True to my scope of practice, I might share information and resources to help you decide, together with your doctor, if you want to take any supplements. I work with lifestyle changes, and I refer to specialists when needed.

Yes you can, if you can find 1h a week to meet. While the programme does require daily practice, this only lasts a total of 15 minutes. Yes, it’s this powerful!

I am no couples therapist! But my programme does address relationships and how we might be playing a role in them. So yes, indirectly you will benefit from my programme in this area too.
