Sometimes they hit like a hurricane and flip everything upside down. Change can be challenging, scary, and even terrifying. We tend to only accept change when we feel like we have to or are pushed into it.
Yet, we can choose to handle change in a different way. Instead of making things difficult because that’ s what we do, we can simplify how we work with change by becoming consciously aware of our thoughts, feelings, and actions.
Change is not the same as shifting. Shifting is making a choice instead of just going along with what happens. We get to choose what’ s next: the thoughts, feelings, and actions. We have the power to select what’ s best for us, instead of what other people think is best for us. This gives us the freedom to live life on our terms.
Leaders use the SHIFTology ® process to help them work with purpose, intuition, and energy that makes a difference for themselves and their teams. It transforms how you resist change into a method that effectively and effortlessly helps you achieve your objectives and ambitions. It gives you power over your life. You may even learn to embrace change, as it is a constant companion. You cannot escape it.

How Does SHIFTology ® Work?

SHIFTology ® is a way to get your life and leadership back in line with your principles. It is based on three things:
Intentional Shifts: Choosing to act instead of just responding without thinking.
Intuitive Shifts: Listening to your inner voice, which tells you what is best for you.
Impactful Shifts: Making changes that have a big effect on happiness, health, and wealth.
When you accept and use SHIFTology ®, you go beyond easy fixes and short-term solutions. You learn to live in the present and change your thoughts, focus, and actions so that they work together instead of against each other.

A Story: The CEO Who Lost It

Sarah was a successful businesswoman who seemed happy on the surface but felt empty on the inside.
She had a stellar career. She led a big staff, did better than she ever thought she could, and enjoyed the praise that comes with running a successful firm. But every morning, she woke up with a knot in her gut and a new ache or pain. Every day was a whirlwind of meetings and deadlines that wore her out. Relationships were tense at home. She couldn’ t recall the last time she was really happy.
