"Excellence is attained by those who care more than others think is wise, who risk more than others think is safe, who dream more than others think is practical."

"The most important question that you probably have NOT asked yourself is 'How do you want to feel?' The answer will change your life and Powered by Feel helps you craft a response that busts through the cluttered Maginot line of arguments we use to defend our maladaptive habits in life. You will pass it along to family, friends and co-workers -- I did."

Mehmet Oz

Powered by Feel shows we've been leading our lives and our organizations backwards. Through compelling examples and heartwrenching stories, find a fresh approach to motivation and accountability that feels right, plays well, moves us forward, and works. This book should be at the top of everyone's reading list. Wow."

Welcome

Does how you feel affect how you perform? How you live and love and laugh?

Thousands of people have answered these questions with a resounding yes! But when those same people were asked what they did to feel the way they wanted to feel each day, to feel the way they needed to feel, they shook their heads and whispered "Nothing."

I created Powered by Feel as a safe place for you to discover how you want to feel and to share that with others who are doing the same... in the same place, at the same time. My belief is this will help you feel the way you want or need to feel at the moment it matters most.

Why Feel?

In my work with world class performers, I came to understand that the difference between doing work well and just "working" was all about feel, all about how skilled we are with feel. Yet it is neglected and feared as selfish or touchy feelie. I heard over and over again how feel matters, how feel is a skill that each of us can develop. I heard how feel is the most personal skill of all and it is this ownership that makes it exclusively ours.

Discover feel for yourself in this safe place through the courses, coaching, and experiences we are offering. Do the work alone, one on one with us or a friend, or share your quest with others in our communities. Have questions or disagreements let us know. We want to learn from you as well. Want to know more? Drop me an email.

Stay and Play. Do your work. Play your game.
