How long have you been doing what you do and how did you get to be The Peak Performance Coach for Successful Men?
In 2002 I exited the corporate world to launch my coaching and consulting business. Initially, since I had been an executive for +20 years, my early clients were corporate leaders who wanted support on initiating the vision, mission and strategy of their business. I also worked with their teams on communication skills and implementation of the company’s goals.
As I worked with my growing client base, the dynamics changed. The emphasis shifted to Peak Performance, Executive Coaching — where I created a Speed to Advancement™ system that strategically positions clients successfully in their lives in the areas of focus, time management and advancement. This powerful brand of coaching allows me to run a deeply satisfying practice and affect the lives of my clients in profound ways.
In addition to launching my business, I joined Robbins Research International, an Anthony Robbins Company, as an Elite Coach in 2003, where I was given the opportunity to coach hundreds of successful clients across the globe. I consistently worked with a client base of 50-60 clients per month, so I have learned to be the expert on what people are ‘made of’, and I have decided to focus on a more niche client base of successful businessmen.
In 2007 I kept asking myself the question of ‘what’s next’. I knew it was time to step up my game and was in the question, or the inquiry of this for a year. By 2008 I became clear that it was about growing my business with a specific niche client base through online marketing.
That’s one thing about coaching; my clients keep showing up, matching what’s going on in my life. And the majority of my clients were either online marketers or I was supporting them in learning the process. So I took their lead and changed the direction of my business to fit that format. There were many learning lessons along the way, isn’t that usually the way it goes when you’re playing a bigger game? And yes, I hired a coach to support me and to guide me in this journey. And I am thrilled to be out here, for you to have found me, for us to have the opportunity to do some very powerful, fun, gutsy, successful, transformational work together. Now while this journey may not be the easiest, there is absolutely nothing more fulfilling, I can guarantee you that.
My career is my passion; I truly don’t know the difference between work and play. I feel very blessed and honored to have the opportunity to work with so many amazing clients across the globe with a total net worth of over two billion dollars. Men are such great role models; you have an important ‘job’ in becoming an even more successful and contributing role model in your life and in the lives of those around you.
And what about women? Yes, I work with women too, and I know many women are the guiding influence for the men in their lives so I want women to know what I’m up to as well. I’ve had many of my women clients refer the men in their lives to coaching – bosses, colleagues, significant others, friends… And I’ve coached many women and supported them in shining brighter as they balance their life even more and learn the difference between ‘self-ish’ and ‘self-love’.
I have never ever looked back, wondering if I made the right decision in the work that I do. I know that I am working with a core client base that I am most passionate about and can see a hugely positive influence in their world because of who they are willing to become.
It’s more about transforming lives than it is about earning an income. I know and trust and believe that when I’m truly on purpose, the money will follow, and that has occurred for me every single time.
So you are important to me, who you are in the world is important to me; I want you to see and live into the potential I see for you. And I never work harder than my client. You have to really want this, you must come ready to play full out and together we will create a stronger partnership in how we work together than you may have ever thought possible.
As your coach, I am an objective person in your life, one who truly has unconditional love and compassion for what it takes to walk this transformational journey. Believe me, I will not ask you to do anything I haven’t already had the courage to do and change in my own life. Not that you will follow my specific path, and you will be inspired by your coach who absolutely ‘walks her talk’.
I love hearing my clients’ stories about how their lives change. They are more present, loving and giving. They receive more because they give so much more. It’s a life that you might have only dreamed of having in the past. Life is so abundant, there are endless possibilities, and I will show you how to experience all of that and more.
Again, was this an easy process for me, in coming up with another transition in my business? Not really. I’m human too, and when I do shift and come from lack I can go to huge fear. ‘But this is such a big financial and time and energy investment’, or ‘I’m already working so hard’, or ‘I need to continue to support myself financially’, blah blah blah. Once I really worked through those issues and refocused on my big dream, my mindset changed, allowing for very little scarcity, and a whole lot of abundance. And joy, and passion, and fun, and of course…lots of gratitude…
So yes, I do love supporting successful men in making their dreams come true. That’s how the Peak Performance, Executive Coach for Successful Men was born!
Who are your clients exactly?
I work with men, just like you, who have the external successes in their lives and now it’s time to create even more laser focus, advance to the top floor of the skyscraper of their career, and eliminate 2-3 steps on their ladder to even more wealth and success building. My clients have an insatiable thirst for making a difference in their family, for others and impact the world — enabling them to leave a legacy and become an even more powerful role model.
This works well for me and for you because I am passionate about this type of work and about you as my client. I support, inspire, coach, teach, push, question, mentor and more…with exclusive, proven systems and technologies.
How are you different from other “coaches”?
I’m different from other “coaches” in several ways. First of all, I do have all the business acumen to support my clients. I began my career in finance and was promoted along the way to executive management positions. So yes, I do have the expertise to support you in your career, from creating business plans, to developing your vision/mission/strategy, to supporting you in being a great leader, managing great teams and much, much more.
I have all that. And I’ve also devoted my ongoing learning journey to going much deeper than that. I have a listening for what really creates the patterns people get ‘stuck’ in, I listen for the unconscious beliefs and rules you have that get in your way or cause the conflict in achieving what you truly want. Who are you, really, when you’re not your ‘story’? I work with you on the unconscious level; clearing out the deep blocks so they no longer get in the way of what you know is possible. The healthier you are in mind/body/spirit, the less you rely on addictions to relax you or to make you happy. You’ll learn how to be in a great emotional state no matter what’s going on around you.
And I’ve decided on men as my niche market, because I am an expert in supporting men on eliminating 2-3 stairs on their staircase to success, and I know this to be true…there is absolutely nothing more fulfilling then learning and growing and contributing in your life, I guarantee you that! And I feel very blessed that I live in it every day! So I, as your coach, am very aligned and congruent with how I am supporting you. I’ve been there; I know the courage it takes to transform, the confusion that can sometimes occur right before you have a breakthrough. And I know how to support you in whatever the process is that you’re in, I will guide you and support you in ‘seeing’ what’s possible and true for you. I will push you to go that extra 2mm to have it all. And the rewards? Oh my, the rewards are grander than you might have imagined experiencing in this lifetime.
Does everyone get these rewards? Only those who are- willing to play full out and want it more than you’ve ever wanted anything else.
- honoring the commitments and continue to play full out between our sessions,
- focusing on what is possible and let go of what hasn’t supported you in the past.
I also focus on what makes each client UNIQUE. I help you tap into and see your CORE ESSENCE. It is from this place long-term success is born.
There’s one more thing that makes me different from other business coaches and that’s my absolute commitment to continually working on my own inner growth and mindset.
You could also say I come to this path quite naturally. I’ve always wanted to support others in making them great, and bring huge enthusiasm and fun to everything I do. My parents did an excellent job in raising me and my 4 sisters and 2 brothers. I’ve always had a passion for business even while raising my three incredible children. So yes, I come to this path of passion naturally but if you don’t, that’s OK, that’s what I’m here for!
What type of client do you work best with?
The clients I work with MUST be willing to do what it takes to live the life they’ve only imagined possible, as well as listen to and consider my carefully offered coaching.
I don’t work well with excuse-makers or storytellers or anyone that’s not willing to take 100% responsibility for their life. I ask a lot of my clients because I SEE A LOT in them. I wouldn’t serve myself or my clients by holding back or playing small. I don’t work with clients that will hold back or play small either.
I’m known for giving my clients lots of unconditional love, compassion and encouragement. I’m also known for my calmness, intuitive listening abilities AND drill sergeant style when needed! I‘m also very generous with my clients, and am always passing useful information and resources their way. I’m a filter for my clients and only share with them what WORKS, therefore saving my clients LOTS of time and energy!
For what type of client is this program NOT going to work?
Please know I’m very selective in who I work with and I cherry-pick my clients, choosing to (gently) turn away people who aren’t suited for my programs and won’t get the results for which you would have signed up for. (It wouldn’t be fair to you.)
I won’t work with (without exception) the chronic skeptic, as well as individuals who consistently make excuses for not getting their commitments done or challenging every aspect of the program. If you are one of these people, I gently and respectfully ask that you not call and I hope you understand why. We’ll probably just not work well together and I wouldn’t want you to waste your time or money. Is that fair?
Can I contact some of your former clients to see what it’s like to work with you?
Yes, I encourage you to! Please go to the Client Testimonials page and read all of them. See which ones you feel drawn to; perhaps because the person has gotten the results you want to get too. Then feel free to email or call them and ask what they got from working with me and my programs.
What can I expect from working with you Joy?
My exclusive systems and technologies give you something greater than what you’re doing. There is pain in moving backward in your life. Please go to the Programs page - not only will these programs assist you in achieving the personal and professional growth and change you seek, they will help you do it faster.
If You’re About Peak Performance, It Doesn’t Come In A Box.
You need to be close to the source of momentum. Reading books, attending seminars and listening to audios does not create the change you’re looking for. Going back to school to get an MBA for $250k will not get you what you want.
These Peak Performance Coaching programs are a MUST if you want a customized approach to integrating what you’ve already learned from the ‘school of hard knocks’ and are now ready to make the changes necessary for your maximum success. You will eliminate 2-3 steps to Wealth and Success building with my systems and technologies.
I am one of few women who support highly successful men. Real success happens in Peak Performance Coaching and it’s fundamentally who I am and what I’m about. Anyone who is a high performance player KNOWS the importance of coaching.
Will I recover my investment?
Without a doubt, absolutely! By investing in my programs you’re not only investing in MORE resources, you’re investing in more clarity, more advancement, more time, more fulfillment, and more success.
My programs will give you everything you need and nothing you don’t. Certainly in the short-term you’ll immediately notice changes in how you think about your life and your results will improve, and what these programs will do for you in the long-term is extraordinary. You see, creating your next journey takes time but when you’re armed with the specific resources you’ll be able to build so much faster. You won’t have to spend time putting all the pieces together and “figuring it out” (the hard way).
OK, I know which program I want. How do we get started?
Great! You probably know that one of the most prominent characteristics of successful people is that they take action! They take educated risks, are decisive, and they move forward towards success faster as a direct result of this. It’s a well-known fact these people make decisions based on their gut instinct. So, that being said, since this feels right for you, then go for it.
