Finding Passion and Purpose --- Eliminating Anxiety, Fears and Self-Sabotaging Beliefs --- Stress and Conflict Management --- Career and Midlife Changes --- Retirement --- Improving Health and Wellness

Have you decided it's time to make changes in your life but you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed or afraid? Are you exhausted chasing from one responsibility to another and wishing there were a better way? Have you been successful but feel like there's something missing? Are you confused from not knowing which direction to go in?

My role is to support your efforts to CLARIFY YOUR VISION (help you define your strengths and create a clear picture of your successful future and healthy lifestyle); ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS (help you translate your vision into focused goals, strategies, action steps and options) and BALANCE YOUR LIFE (help you discover what gives you, or robs you of, the energy for living).Most importantly, I will help you focus on what is possible and changeable in a better and faster way.

During my coaching program I'll:

• Help you design a Personal Strategic Life Plan (PSLP). This is a blueprint for understanding your 3 Commitments (Inner Self, External Self, Relationships) and getting more of what you want from each of them. Even more importantly, it's about knowing WHAT you want and being absolutely CLEAR on what it looks like.
• Teach you proven tools for eliminating negative beliefs that are the roadblocks keeping you from being successful.
• Support you and provide feedback to keep you on track.

How do you benefit from choosing me?

• I have a variety of effective tools and in-depth knowledge of the field. I've spent the last two decades working with people in transition – job change, retirement, life changes – in executive recruiting, human resources, career counseling, life balance and stress management counseling. I am a member of the National Speakers' Association and a Certified Facilitator of the Conflict Dynamics Profile® and The Passion Test™. My clients have included government agencies, law firms, non-profit organizations and associations.

• I stay on top of the latest research. I constantly read and keep up on the latest findings in my field. I am passionate about education. I make a conscious attempt to learn at every moment and share that knowledge with my clients. This, in turn, has led me to a richer, deeper understanding of how to facilitate successful outcomes.

I'm the author of numerous articles for publications such as NASA's Work/Life Navigator, Washington Woman, The Medical News, The Energy Club's monthly newsletter and the newsletter of Australians in Washington Association.

• I am following my passion. I find it extremely gratifying and fulfilling to assist individuals and groups who wish to explore how change affects them and develop ways to cope and work creatively with change.
• My strength is an intuitive sense of the core issue. My clients often say something like “those were the perfect words, how did you know?”
• I provide ongoing support. Even after our session, I am available by email, or phone if necessary, to answer questions and act as your personal sounding board.

I really enjoyed this session. It was a fun way to sit down and really think about what I want out of my life and what drives me. Evelin was a great leader through this process --- Marielena I 8/16/08

As a Certified Passion Test Facilitator, I guide you through The Passion Test™, a simple but profound tool that helps you understand the key success elements for YOU to live a happy, fulfilled life; to experience those things that are truly important to you. Once you create your own “Personal Strategic Life Plan” you can then focus your attention on the actions required to live your ideal life.

• How to clarify what's really important in your life, not just what seems to be important
• How to create your personal strategic plan to re-engage with your inner life
• Seven principles for living a life on purpose
• How to reduce the stress that occurs when you try to live "off-balance"
• The secret to taking the agony out of decision-making

The Passion Test™ can be targeted to focus on your IDEAL JOB, YOUR IDEAL RETIREMENT OR YOUR IDEAL MATE/RELATIONSHIP.

EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques): Release the Limiting Beliefs that Lead to Stress and Physical Challenges

New discoveries now allow rapid freedom from the emotional pain of anger, stress, fears, cravings, anxiety, trauma and other emotional issues – sometimes in a matter of minutes. While the process is not perfect, it often works where everything else fails. EFT is the doorway to this refreshing new approach. In essence, it is a psychological version of acupuncture except that needles aren't necessary. Instead, you “tune in” to your emotional issue while stimulating stress relief points by tapping on them with your fingertips. This provides a “balancing effect” that replaces emotional distress with a form of peace.

Benefits:

• Reduce stress, anxiety and associated physical symptoms
• Improve your self image
• Become more relaxed and think more clearly
• Increase your energy and productivity
• Improve your sleep
• Control cravings
• Clear old self-sabotaging patterns and achieve your goals

Health and Wellness

As an N.D. my approach is a holistic one. Living a fulfilled and happy life is a mind/body issue. A healthy body is therefore a key aspect of reaching the next level in your life.

I can help you:

• Choose healthier foods that are more aligned with your metabolic profile
• Gain more energy
• Break free from cravings
• Control weight issues
• Sift through all the health-related information available today and determine what makes sense for you
