About the Speaker: Ellen Goodwin

For 20 years, I ran my own creative business. I loved it at first. Yet, with mastery came complacency. I’d reached my peak and was slowly slipping down the other side of the hill. Many days while waiting for the muse to strike, I would become engrossed in the online world of endless clicks, sucked into a rabbit hole of distractions.

I almost got myself fired.

Bored and unfulfilled, I became addicted to my current situation rather than taking the steps towards my own evolution. Like many people, my catalyst for change came when I hit bottom, nearly fired from a long-term contract because of my inability to stop procrastinating. It was my wake-up call.

So I asked myself:  why?

Powerless and frustrated, I began to ask why.

Why couldn’t I stay on task or finish on time? I began to study procrastination, and the answers came like lightening: my brain. Neuroscience holds not only the answer as to why we stay stuck, but the formula for what we should do instead. By working with our natural human habits rather than fighting against them, we can create a game plan to squash procrastination and step out of our own way.

My understanding can help YOU.

Understanding my own experience allowed me to create a new result. As your Action Instigator and Accountability Partner, I will do the same for you.

Cracking the Stress Code: Achieve Work/Life Balance and Stop Stress from Taking Over

Dr. Terry Lyles

We live in world of high stress. From intense workloads, to looming deadlines, to personal difficulties- stress takes on many forms that adversely affect productivity, performance, and health.

Stress is a real problem that affects the bottom line of work and life. When we try to manage stress instead of using it to our advantage it makes us feel:

  • Fatigued
  • Depressed
  • Unproductive
  • Unmotivated to achieve and succeed

When we embrace the power of stress utilization we realize that we are in charge of our inspiration and energy levels and we become:

  • High performers
  • Energized
  • Healthy
  • Driven to conquer obstacles and succeed

Based on in-depth scientific research of how the human brain and body processes stress, working directly with hundreds of clients from some of the most intense environments imaginable, and challenging personal experiences, Dr. Terry Lyles has pioneered the field of stress utilization. Stress is not something that can be managed; but something that can be used and controlled for maximized output and success.

This insightful and eye-opening presentation will teach you: (Learning Objectives)

  • Why stress utilization is key and stress management is ineffective.
  • How to navigate stress and pressure in the workplace and your personal life.
  • The ways that you respond to stressful situations will define your future efforts and endeavors.
  • Simple ways to recharge and recover for maximized energy throughout the day.
  • How to align your mind and body in order to maximize productivity.

Most of all, Terry shows you that when you take hold of stress you become a better more productive leader, manager, employee, and person in every area of your life.

He also has served as a caretaker for his own adult son—diagnosed with Quadriplegic Cerebral Palsy, he wakes up every day facing an uphill battle against his physical limitations. Despite being given dismal odds, his son emotes joy and powers through the day with immense motivation. His son’s example made Terry ask an impactful question, “What is my excuse?” and then “What is your excuse?”

No one should live as a slave to his or her stress. Terry knows without a doubt that his time- tested, scientifically-measured approach to stress utilization fosters creativity, cultivates motivation, and increases productivity.
