Regularly $249.00, but now until May 31st, only $125.00!
The Dynamic Exploration Session is a 1-Hour introduction to the unique Optimized Results process. It’s designed to identify and explore your Internal Operating System, which directs and determines how you respond to everything and everyone in your life. You’ll discover how this flow has impacted your life, and how you can be in command of it going forward. You’ll also discover how everyone else’s IOS interacts with yours, and how to minimize conflict while maximizing connection. You’ll walk away with a tool for shifting and creating good habits that serve you, and take you where you want to be.
Laser Coaching Single Session is optimal for situational or circumstantial issues (coping strategies and triage) or when you’re not quite ready for embarking on a journey of personal evolution. You can address specific challenges in your life, gaining new resources, without a full operating system upgrade.
“I can’t thank Ian enough for the impact he has made on my life. Working with him has made me experience my highest self in all aspects: work, relationships, social, and personal.” – Giovanna Garcia, Nutritional Coach
“Ian has changed my life in so many ways and in all aspects. I have learned so much about myself, and grown into someone I never thought possible.” – Joselle Gacusan, Personal Trainer
“After just one session my partner and I were able to move through conflict in a non-blaming and curious way, eager to explore how our innate differences worked in our relationship. As a psychotherapist, I would recommend this process to the couples I see for relationship therapy!” – Shari Levine, LMFT
There’s no reason to not enhance your connection and communication.

Evoking Excellence – it’s easier than you think!!

In many ways, the job of a manager, a parent, a teacher, or even a partnership of any kind is the same; we want to evoke excellence in ourselves and others. In many ways our own success often depends on our ability to evoke excellence in others.
The most effective means we have is within our grasp and totally free: communication. Just by using a couple shifts in how we communicate, we can achieve much more, with less stress and more joy. These shifts have brought peace to troubled relationships and turned faltering companies into wildly successful ones.

Emotional Resilience – we all get knocked down; how fast can we get back up?

Let’s face it, stuff happens, and we get derailed; taken off track. Now we’re in a state where we’re not being productive, we’re not really present for people or ourselves, and we’re literally losing time (as in our life-time.) If we could just snap back faster, the benefits would be thousand-fold on every level.
Emotional Resilience is as important as Cardiac Resilience, especially when it comes down to how in charge of your own life you want to be. Of all the things we want to control and can’t, being able to bounce back faster from any trigger is a hugely helpful skill-set.

5 Simple Rules for Extraordinary Relationships

Between everything and everything else there is space. That space is the relationship between those things. When those things are us, relationships are about much more than physical proximity. We’re constantly in motion, both physically and emotionally, and as we connect with another human being in motion, if the synchronization isn’t right, there is conflict. In that way, we’re almost like gears hoping to mesh. If we don’t, our metaphorical teeth get chipped, and it hurts.
After decades of working with couples, teams, and even my own relationships, I’ve boiled the secrets for success down to 5 straightforward rules. They tend to be mostly about communication, as that’s the mortar between the bricks that are us. Communication is what binds us or pushes us apart, so using these 5 rules assures connection, rather than conflict. Warning: happy relationships will most likely result.

These four communication shifts have turned many, many faltering companies into wildly successful ones. (I took one company from $385K to $1.2M in 4 months.) Applying Conscious Communication transforms the entire culture of an organization, making it agile, responsive, and healthy.

Managing Pain With Your Brain – “it’s chemistry, man!”

Online ZOOM Event

We may not be able to change what happens to us, but we can change how we deal with it and how it affects us. Re-wiring your brain chemistry is actually a learnable skill that puts you in command of your experience. Sometimes what’s throwing us is temporary, and sometimes chronic, but in the moment all we know is it hurts. We react by trying anything to make it stop, and this often leads to even more problems. We try stuffing and masking physical pain and anxiety with pills and other things, none of which work sustainably, and usually have negative side effects.
You have other options! From Norman Cousins laughing his cancer into remission, to Stephen Hawking adding 50 years to his 5 year death sentence, to Aimee Mullins, a double-amputee from infancy, growing up to be a runway model, motivational speaker, and champion runner, there’s obviously another way to approach pain.
- Learn new ways to look at and manage the “downside” of things from pain to stress to depression, and learn optimism as a habit.
- Reduce stress and increase energy.
- Shift your own brain chemistry from flight or fight to rewards and achievements.
Blending principles of both neuroscience and positive psychology, you can learn how to shift your outlook on life on a daily basis, in a way that reduces pain. Being in command of your positive, energized mind, focused on solutions vs. problems is one of the most powerful skill-sets you can have.

We all have multiple perspectives within; each offering unique gifts. And you are absolutely greater than the sum of the parts!
How many “gurus” have you heard say “be like me, do what I do,” as they’re “successful, have all the answers,” and so on. The truth is, what works for me, may not work for you. We’re not the same people. So who do you listen to? Surprise! You need to listen to you!
We’re going to look at how you can identify and use a vast array of resources you may not know you have – yet. Mastering this puts you in the comfortable, confident state of mind, where you know you can handle whatever life throws at you.
The 3 Strikes of Communication – Wouldn’t you prefer a Grand Slam?

ONLINE ZOOM EVENT

We fall into some bad habits in our communication, and they’re actually pretty easy to identify and eliminate. On the speaking side, it’s about verbal accuracy and being explicit, but the majority of our difficulties are on the listening side, and these are so much easier to fix.
We tend to be far more “busy” while listening to someone than we need to be. We’re often thinking of what we’re going to say based on a snippet of what we heard, without fully hearing the entirety of the speaker’s point. This can take us on a tangent away from the point of the conversation, and even start conflict, where none was intended.
Join me for a quick, fun exploration of the 3 habits in the way of our communication excellence, and how you can improve your interpersonal interactions immediately.

Internal Prejudice – it all starts inside
TUESDAY, July 27, 2021 AT 5 PM PDT – 5:30 PM PDT
ONLINE ZOOM EVENT
Register FREE HERE
Our internal communication is filled with the clutter of many voices, from our parents, teachers, peers, etc. Within this cacophony of words there are narratives we tend to follow without really thinking about them. Some of these narratives are about others, but a huge amount of what directs us are the ones we listen to about ourselves.
We have numerous ways of processing incoming information, and oddly enough, we seem to favor one over the others. Have you ever noticed that you tend to favor thinking over feeling, or intuition over thinking, or any other hierarchy you can make? These hierarchies are usually formed by outsiders when we’re very young, and don’t necessarily coincide with what actually works best for YOU. That’s what we want to put in place; what works best for you.
Join me for a quick, fun exploration of this Internal Prejudice obstructing your productivity and happiness, and how you can access and embrace your most powerful resources immediately.

How often do you feel Disappointment, Anger, Frustration, and Anxiety? Wouldn’t you love to reduce them all and feel your Personal Power instead? Would you believe the Serenity Prayer offers us exactly that?
The Serenity Prayer may be well known, but putting it into practice isn’t always easy. Using a design engineering approach, I discovered a beautiful Geometry to it that gives us a practical, easy-to-use, way of visualizing the Serenity Prayer. This takes it out of the idea world, and puts it into the real world we live in.
Join me for a quick, fun exploration of this process, and how you can start to improve your experience of life immediately.
