Stop Self Sabotage and Achieve Lasting Success

Stop Self Sabotage and Achieve Lasting Success

with Judy Ho

About This Class

Want to make a change in your workplace and grow together? Well, we want to help! This class is great for teams looking to get out of their own way and boost productivity.

Have you ever had a deadline for a big work project, only to find yourself down to the wire because you spent too much time on social media? Or have you been excited about meeting someone new, only to convince yourself they aren’t really interested? How many Januarys have you resolved that this is the year you’re finally going to get really fit, only to abandon your new gym membership just a few weeks later? If these scenarios sound familiar, you are stuck in a cycle of self-sabotage.

At one point or another, we’ve all done something that undermines our best interests and intentions. Even the most successful people get in their own way—often without realizing it.  In this class, Dr. Judy Ho, licensed clinical psychologist, tenured professor, and television personality, takes a fresh look at self-sabotage to help us answer two vital questions: Why do we do it? And how do we stop? 

Combining therapeutically proven strategies with practical tools and self-assessments, Dr. Judy teaches you how to identify your triggers, modify your thoughts and behaviors, find your true motivation, and unlock your willpower to stop this vicious cycle in its tracks. Practical and transformative, Stop Self-Sabotage and Achieve Lasting Success is your ultimate guide to jumpstart lasting, positive change and start living the life you want.

Together we will: 

  • Learn why self-sabotage is universal and happens to even the most successful people
  • Understand your unique L.I.F.E. factors that lead to self-sabotage behaviors
  • Identify your thought triggers that hold you back from consistent and effective goal pursuit and attainment
  • Discover three ways to transform your thought patterns and effective ways to reset the emotional thermostat that causes self-sabotaging behaviors
  • Tap into the power of values-based living and the scientific secret that successful leaders, entrepreneurs, and elite athletes use to sidestep the barriers to their goals

Dr. Judy Ho, Ph. D., ABPP, ABPdN is a triple board certified and licensed Clinical and Forensic Neuropsychologist, a tenured Associate Professor at Pepperdine University and published author. Dr. Judy received her bachelor’s degrees in Psychology and Business Administration from UC Berkeley, and her masters and doctorate from SDSU/UCSD in Clinical Psychology. She completed a National Institute of Mental Health sponsored fellowship at UCLA’s Semel Institute.
Her latest book, “Stop Self-Sabotage” was published by HarperCollins in August 2019; and has been translated into 7 additional languages. Dr. Judy maintains a private practice in Manhattan Beach, CA where she specializes in comprehensive neuropsychological assessments and expert witness work. She regularly appears as a psychologist on television, podcasts, radio and other media.

Start with WHY for Veterans

Start with WHY for Veterans

with Paul Mullis

About This Class

For the best WHY journey experience, we recommend taking all three classes in order: Start with WHY for Veterans → Refine Your WHY → Live Your WHY *

Want to make a change in your community and grow together? Well, we want to help! This course is great for colleagues looking to discover or reinvigorate their sense of purpose.

What is Start with WHY for Veterans?

As you transition from military to civilian life, WHAT you do may change, but your WHY can always remain clear and constant. As you leave your military families behind, you may be forced to reinvent yourself, reinvent WHAT you do. We believe the best way to move forward starts with your WHY.

This interactive workshop is designed to walk you, step-by-step, through the process to find your WHY – your personal purpose, cause or belief – and point you in the direction to live it. It takes a willingness to be open, to share personal stories, and to trust the process. And through it all, we’re there to help.

Key Takeaways

  • Unpack the concept of The Golden Circle from Start with WHY
  • Share tools and the process to discover your individual WHY
  • Connect you with one to two partners so you can work together to write your WHY statement.
  • Conduct live coaching and Q&A to help you improve your WHY statement.
  • Explore ways to bring your WHY to life

Meet Lt. Col. Paul “JQ – Johnny Quest” Mullis, USAF (ret). Paul exists to find and feed the spark in us, so that, together, we can lead our own legacy. He met Simon Sinek in 2010 at the USAF Weapons School. Paul deeply identified with Start With WHY and the fact that the ideas in Simon’s book can be taught. Simon and Paul worked together on several projects, including teaching Leadership Communications and helping the Weapons School find and define its own WHY. Paul spent 25 years in the Air Force culminating in a role leading the U-28 course at the Weapons School. Most of all, Paul is stoked to serve the Veteran Community.

Say Goodbye to Imposter Syndrome

Say Goodbye to Imposter Syndrome

with Tara-Nicholle Kirke, MA, Esq

About This Class

Want to make a change in your workplace and grow together? Well, we want to help! This class is great for teams looking to overcome destructive thought patterns and unlock their true potential. 

In the last month, I’ve heard three different smart, successful people say some version of the following sentence: “I’m worried I won’t reach my full potential before I die.”

They weren’t being dramatic. It sucks to know that you are destined for greatness, but feel like you’re spending your life working on things that aren’t meaningful, fulfilling, or aligned with your values. 

What’s worse is to be painfully aware that your biggest limiting factor is YOU, in the form of the self-doubting, “I’m-a-fraud” thought habits we call Imposter Syndrome.

A guided system is the only effective way to break your negative thought habits, heal your Imposter Syndrome and transcend your upper limits. If the system does not incorporate insights from neuroscience AND psychology AND Universal law, it is incomplete and will not get to the root of the problem. You can’t just “love and light” your way out of these lifelong patterns and negative energies, and you can’t habit-hack your way out of them, either.

In this session, I’ll be sharing a proven, comprehensive roadmap and energizing protocol for transforming self-sabotage and Imposter Syndrome.

Together we will: 

  • Discover when your inner self-sabotage struggle began
  • Learn how to go from an Electric Fence Mindset to a Radical Trust Mindset
  • Understand and take the first steps to recalibrating your addictive, negative thought habits
  • Get clear on why reparenting yourself is the key to actualizing your unique potentials and finding the power to do your dreams
  • Learn a 7-step system for resolving your inner conflicts in order to live a highly-aligned life

Tara-Nicholle Kirke is a globally-recognized author, transformation expert and Master Coach. Tara helps smart, successful people start doing their big dreams by undoing their self-sabotage patterns.

As the Founder and CEO of SoulTour, Tara has taught over 50,000 people how to stop hiding your light and holding yourself back, so your life can finally take off.

A recovering attorney and the former CMO of MyFitnessPal and Ten Percent Happier, Tara wrote the authoritative book on transformational business. It’s called The Transformational Consumer: Fuel a Lifelong Love Affair with Your Customers by Helping Them Get Healthier, Wealthier and Wiser.

Revamp Your Resume in 25 Mins

with our Optimist Instructors

About This Class

Part of the Find A Job You Love Series

We know a blank page can be intimidating. This is especially true when you need to fill it with your own story, your unique abilities, and the things that make you stand out and make employers sit up. But that’s what a resume is: a blank page. To make the most out of that possibility, you need to make the most out of that blank page. We’re here to help you do that by showing you how to write a resume that starts with your WHY.

A resume that starts with WHY will ask the hiring organization to consider you as, well, you. Not just as ‘Employment History’ or ‘Work Experience’, but as a real person equipped with the desires and beliefs to contribute and succeed. Our Optimist Instructor will show you how to establish self-awareness and your relationship to your work, providing you with examples of techniques and strategies that will strengthen your resume. The goal is to land not just a job you can do, but a job you love.

Together we will: 

  • Discover the importance of putting your WHY into your resume.
  • Learn what relevant information should be included in the resume.
  • Gather tips and tricks to test your resume’s readiness.

Unlock Creativity and Collaboration at Work

Unlock Creativity and Collaboration at Work

with Hima Batavia

About This Class

Play can help us reimagine the workplace.

The global pandemic revealed that our workplaces need to push the reset button and reimagine how we relate to each other – if we want to continue to retain and attract visionary and engaged leaders and team members.

Play is a powerful tool, and doorway to shaping workplace cultures that embody trust, connection, equity, and creativity. Yet, play has been minimized in adulthood as meaningless and not serious for success and in the workplace as foosball tables and monthly team building events, rather than a foundational pillar of a fulfilling life and culture. The research consistently shows that playing in adulthood is not only a matter of health and well-being but is the very thing that energizes us and opens us to new possibilities.

Most employees desire a playful culture where they can connect with their colleagues, experiment with new ideas, and destress when required, but are unsure how to play, when to play, and what the consequences might be, because of gaps in communication and modeling behavior.

Join Hima Batavia in an experience that will not only convince you of the power of play but show you how to design and nurture a playful culture – one that is sensitive to our diverse needs to feel safe and acknowledges the complexity of playing the workplace.

Investing in a long-term vision toward a playful culture can transform your workplace into a place where productivity and well-being can co-exist and nurture healthier, more engaged, and effective teams.

In this class you will:

  • Expand your perception of the power of play as a cultural and creative tool
  • Identify organizational barriers that need to change to integrate play as a cultural value
  • Learn how to design an intentional ‘sandbox’ to play in and a framework to embed play within your organization’s culture
  • Apply play as a tool for examining safety and access needs, creative desires, while being transparent about privilege and power dynamics
  • Brainstorm, roleplay and share with peers ways in which your organization can play more

Hima Batavia is a multi-disciplinary artist and designer who crafts experiences and spaces that shape the culture of how we co-exist. She is the co-founder of Reset, a non-profit organization that designs IRL experiences for adults to just play, as an act of resistance, wellness and collective joy. Currently, she sits on the board of the organization.

Over the years, she has collaborated with organizations including Artscape, Luminato, Myseum, Toronto Prisoners Rights Project, Staples Studio, Centre for Social Innovation, Hyman Digital, and Woodgreen Community Services to design, produce and facilitate strategies, experiences, festivals and public artworks centered in principles of play, community, connection, personal transformation, systems change, futures-thinking and well-being.

Want to make a change in your workplace and grow together? Well, we want to help!
This class is great for teams looking to prioritize mental well-being and build emotional resilience. 

The physical and social contexts of how we work have rapidly been disrupted over the last two years, causing relentless uncertainty and volatility. With continued changes in the workplace environment, it is imperative as a manager or leader that you supercharge your resilience level and increase your ability to bounce back from adversity with ease. By adapting to change, you can avoid burnout and model this advantageous behavior for your employees too. Building your emotional and mental resilience can mean managing the emotions that you yourself experience or that of those around you. When you build stronger emotional resilience and gain the ability to minimize stress and anxiety, it enables you to increase productivity, improve morale, enhance relationships with your team and boost company culture to retain top talent.

Together we will: 

  • Recognize stress and anxiety—the science, impact, types, symptoms, and causes
  • Explore the importance of emotional resilience at work for yourself and others
  • Identify the unique stories you tell yourself about your stress and anxiety and the effect they have on your work and life
  • Discover how you can reframe your anxiety and use Samantha’s framework to develop your own personal resilience and stress management strategies
  • Build your confidence to deal with challenges both now and in the future

A spark is something quite small and, by itself, not very powerful. But a spark has the ability to ignite. An idea is like a spark; alone it is just a set of words, but it too can ignite. A great idea can inspire others to dream bigger. Let us all work together to ignite something greater than ourselves.

Let us all be a Spark of Optimism.
