Constant reactivity generates a downward spiral until we burnout internally or flameout externally.
Many leaders I work with reach a state of exhaustion and search for what to do next. I offer them simple practices to pause and observe their habit nature in the midst of complexity.

- What practices help me pause reactive downward spirals and regain my balance?
- With fresh equilibrium, how do I develop to create anew with those around me?
I help leaders and teams regain their balance, develop and create new possibilities.
Amidst rising unrest, now is a time to pause reactivity, develop ourselves and create anew!
