It is never too late to become who you could have been. -- George Eliot
I help people reach their peak performance through a physiologically based method called Emotional Freedm Technique (EFT). This isn’t crunchy granola or crystals — this is a solid, sound, real-life process that is backed by scientific research. It works quickly and easily and once you’ve learned how to do it, you can use it on your own.
My heart and soul are in this work because I know how devastating high performance anxiety can be.
Growing up, I used to hide in the choir loft so I couldn’t be seen while singing a solo. I hated the limelight and hoped I wouldn’t be noticed when I was the high scorer in basketball or when I earned honors in other areas.
Are you one of those people who hides your talents and accomplishments? Whose knees shake and voice quails if you have to present a speech or compete in your sport or ask the boss for a raise? Are you someone who thinks you just can’t do it (or do it “well enough”) — whatever “it” is? Imagine what you could do if you didn’t have that thought in mind.
I have helped performing artists, athletes and business men and women get past their blocks and achieve the performance they've dreamed of. One of the greatest rewards of my work is to see these burdens lifted and watch people as they grow into themselves and their talents. I feel privileged to be engaged in this work.
