About Positive Intelligence (PQ)
PQ = Positive Intelligence Quotient How high is your PQ?
Positive Psychology | Cognitive Behavioral Therapy | Neuroscience | Performance Science
These together make up Positive Intelligence Quotient (PQ)
Reducing the negative thoughts and voices in our head, stop allowing limiting beliefs and fears control your life... this is whar PQ is all about.
Why This Program is Different
We've all heard great speakers, gone on inspiring retreats and participated in mindset shifting team-building events. We leave ready to change the world... well, at least ready to change our world. Then two weeks later, hell, sometimes it's only two days later, we're over it, why?Because inspiration is only 20% of the equation. We don't continue to feed the excitement. No one is showing us how or helping us change.
Positive Intelligence Quotient (PQ) is the measure of your Mental Fitness
Although we all have the Judge Saboteur inside our brains, we each also have a combination of 9 other Accomplice Saboteurs controlling us. How much control they have and who is controlling each of us is different from person to person. Understanding how the different regions of our brain works and how negativity lives in one region and positivity lives in another helps us acquire and use the tools to gain and master control.
No more being controlled by our thoughts or unable to control how we react to stressors in our lives. This 8-week program will help you change the neural pathways you have relied on for years and develop new ones that will enhance your life.
Mental Fitness is your capacity to respond to life's challenges with a positive rather than negative mindset. Helping you achieve peak performance, peace of mind/wellness, and healthy relationships.

“What you can rely on you've never relied on in your life. What you can't trust you've been trying to trust all your life. What you've been trusting has never been you. What you've been ignoring has always been you. Try to trust what's really you and see what happens.” ~ Ra Uhu Hu
Reach Peak Performance | Improve Wellbeing & Overall Health | Strengthen Personal & Professional Relationships

To help every human build their Mental Fitness so they can fulfill their true potential for happiness, performance, and contribution with ease and flow.
Motivation from the Saboteurs is to be pushed through life while emersed in self-doubt and fear. Motivation from the Sage is to be pulled through life with self-love and ease and flow.
How do I join the next Mental Fitness Bootcamp?
Join my next Mental Fitness Bootcamp or, I can create one specifically for your group. If you have 2-5 people in your family, friend group, colleagues or team who are ready to go, we will create your own Mental Fitness Bootcamp Cohort that can start as soon as next Monday. And don't worry, if you have more than 5 people, we can have multiple cohorts running at the same time.
Why 8 weeks? Because motivation isn't enough, mantras aren't enough. It takes repetition, dedication, and consistency to change the neural pathways you have become dependent on.
Mental Fitness (PQ) is increased when mental muscles are strengthened through positive habits.
Our program focuses on growing three specific mental muscles, which become visible as new neural pathways in MRI imaging with just 6-8 weeks of practice.

Where do the Saboteurs come from and were they ever helpful?
Saboteurs origin story
Saboteurs actually start off as helpful and as protectors. As humans, we used to need to protect ourselves from predators for survival. But that has not been necessary for a very long time.
However, as children, we need to develop coping mechanisms and ways to survive any real and perceived threats to ourselves or our environment. We need to find ways to protect ourselves from the mental, emotional, and physical threats (real or imagined) in our environments.
Once we reach adulthood we should be able to let these protectors go because we are better equipped to see the world and people for what it is who they are and we should have developed better life skills… But for most of us, this is not the case.
Because of neural pathways carved into our brains from all the years of relying on the saboteurs as protectors, flipping the switch in our mind to turn them off does not happen easily. It takes work, it takes awareness and it takes dedication. And in most cases, it takes someone showing you how...
The Lies of the Saboteurs
Although you might have accomplished great things or reached levels of success you are proud of, for most people, your Saboteurs were by your side and in your head the whole time. This makes everything more difficult and potentially makes everything take longer... Not to mention all the negativity and lies they dragged you through along the way.
Think about how much of where you are today is a result of being pushed through all the negative thoughts and messages of the Saboteurs. How much of what you have accomplished was done after struggling and pushing through fear, anxiety, blame, shame, guilt, giving up, not believing in yourself, listening to the bullying and taunting from your own brain?
Where is the Saboteur Region?
- Brainstem
- Limbic System
- Parts of the Left Brain

The Truth of the Sage - A Life of Ease & Flow
What if instead of negativity motivating you, you had a driving force of positivity and encouragement? What if you could retrain your brain to access the positive region and the encouraging mindset each and every time you have a thought or reaction to something?
The Sage, or positive region of your brain access different parts of your brain than the Saboteur region does. But if you don’t normally access that region then it is not easily accessible. You need to train your brain to go there to tap into your five Sage powers.
The five Sage powers are Empathize, Explore, Innovate, Navigate, and Activate.
Where is the Sage Region?
- Middle Prefrontal Cortex
- Empathy Circuitry
- Parts of the Right Brain

Empathize
Use love and compassion for yourself and others as your guides. Always remember, you don’t know what someone is going through or what they have been through.
Explore
Use curiosity and openness when interacting with others and when dealing with something new or unknown to you.
Innovate
Looking for ways to be inclusive and inspirational as we created connections and introduce new concepts for growth for ourselves and others.
Navigate
Move through life in a purposefully and grounded way, free of Saboteur driven motivations.
Activate
To live life as an active participant and present in each moment. Not haunted by the past or in fear of the future.
3 Core Mental Muscles PQ Will Strengthen
Neuroplasticity - the key to shifting from the negative region to the positive!



Saboteur Interceptor Muscle Self-Command Muscle Sage Muscle
- Saboteurs Interceptor Muscle: Your Saboteurs generate all your negative emotions, including stress, anxiety, self-doubt, anger, avoidance, procrastination, insensitivity or discontent. Mental fitness requires the ability to intercept and discredit the Saboteurs.
- Self-Command Muscle: You’re not in full command of your mind. If you were, you would choose to entirely silence the Saboteurs in your head. You would choose to not stress out over what you can’t control, push away self-doubts, recover from disappointments immediately, and spend little time in anger, regret, or blame.
- Sage Muscle: Your Sage is the one in you that handles challenges with a clear and calm mind, and positive emotions. It also has access to your 5 primary powers. All you need to paint any canvas is 3 primary colors. Similarly, through factor analysis research we’ve discovered that there are only 5 primary powers: Empathize, Explore, Innovate, Navigate, and Activate. For peak performance, you learn to boost all 5 powers and know when to use which power.

All About Teams and Organizations

Triple Purpose
Each Team Member is inspired to grow in meaningful and lasting ways, to help teammates do the same, and to positively impact the lives of others.

Earn Trust
The team becomes a safe environment to communicate without judgment. To be authentic and creative. To admit mistakes and still feel supported and encouraged.


Healthy Conflict
Team members see conflict as an opportunity to grow and understand each other. Learning to be upfront and direct to arrive at the best solution helps the whole team grow.

Mutual Accountability
Team members hold each other accountable without judgment for both results and conduct, as opposed to waiting for the team leader to always be the referee.
Why Positive Intelligence 8-Week Bootcamp Creates Lasting Change...

Focus on Habit Formation
Most trainings result in short-lived improvements. For sustained results, we focus on building neural pathways that form lasting new habits. That’s why we call this “mental fitness”.

Treat Root Cause, Not Symptoms
Our factor analysis research has revealed the foundational root-level enablers and disablers of optimal performance and wellbeing. We rewire the brain at the root cause level.

Develop all 3 Core Muscles
Mental fitness requires 3 core muscles. Saboteur Interceptor, Self-Command, and Sage. Meditation only focuses on Self-Command, which is why it is not sustained by most.
