Get Strategic About Your Practice of Self-Leadership
Through my work with hundreds of high-performance leaders, teams, organizations, and government agencies, I’ve found that the greatest leaders don’t just talk about well-being — they model it and empower their teams to do the same.Â
In my best-selling book Well-Being Ultimatum, I’ll show you how to design a well-being strategy plan so you can optimize your practice of self-leadership. And, I'll share the science behind burnout and compassion fatigue so you can protect yourself and your team from their negative impact on your personal quality of life and team performance. I will also share with you my own pioneering doctoral research on the impact of social support - showing you why it is the most important component of your well-being strategy.
Although I wrote this book in 2015, leaders and teams all over the world continue to apply its teachings in their day-to-day life. The framework found in the book has also been studied as a best-practice in the coaching field, in both scholarship and coach training.Â

Build Your Business and Brand without Burning Out
When I started out writing books, creating online courses, and delivering keynote speeches to help people to strategically practice self-leadership, I felt very awkward and uncomfortable "selling" my work because I was driven by purpose not profit. It was only after many years of study, mentoring, and good old fashioned trial-and-error that I was able to evolve myself, and my business to where I am today...feeling truly Blessed to live every day in peace, purpose and prosperity while helping people to thrive.=
That’s why I felt divinely Called to create this book and course — to help coaches, experts, and executives to become thriving thought leaders by showing them how they too can build a business without burning out. If you are passionate about sharing your purpose with the world, and are ready to invite more prosperity into your life while protecting your well-being, then I invite you to join our global community of more than 500 course community members across 5 continents who know the energetics needed to build a business and brand without burning out -- with my 9 Chakras of Business!Â

Co-Create an Inclusive and Evidence-Informed Yoga Program On and Off the Mat
Â
I never dreamed, when I first stepped onto the yoga mat as a practitioner in the late 1990s, that I would one day be training yoga teachers and yoga therapists around the world. What began as a personal practice for balance and healing has evolved into a lifelong mission—to help others experience yoga as a truly holistic, individualized path to well-being.
Yet through all my years of teaching, one thing remained missing: communication. How do we truly hear our clients? How do we collaborate with them to co-create meaningful change? Those questions led me to earn a PhD in Health Communication—so I could bring the science of connection, dialogue, and shared decision-making into the heart of yoga.
Yoga for One bridges the gap between compassionate, client-centered care and evidence-informed yoga therapy. It offers teachers and movement professionals a clear, practical framework for co-creating custom yoga programs—on and off the mat—that honor each individual’s unique story, strengths, and goals.
If you believe yoga is more than poses, and you’re ready to blend the art of empathy with the science of communication, Yoga for One will guide you step-by-step toward more purposeful practice and more profound results—for yourself and for those you serve.
