Hi, I'm Cynthia!

I know the feeling of being exhausted by interactions and constantly feeling like you're saying the wrong thing and then getting stuck in your head for days about it. 

See, I used to be extremely passive aggressive, I'd shut down at any sign of confrontation or difficult conversation. I had a hard time expressing myself so that others could hear me and it felt like anytime I did get the courage to say something, I said it in the wrong way, that would lead to an argument and nothing would get resolved. Then weeks later the same conversation would come around leading to the same cycle and pattern. 

There was a lot of self evaluation and judgment that kept me comparing myself to others and gave way to a lot of doubt and insecurity and anxiety in my most important relationships.

All of this was how I lived day-in-day-out for 30+ years until my whole world changed with one phone call. 

The whole narrative of my life shifted when Mauricio (Mau) my first love, my best friend, the person who knew me the best in the world passed away unexpectedly in 2011.

The minute it happened, my life changed forever.

I was a blank canvas, empty.

In March 2011, I sat on the floor of my apartment in New York City, fumbling for my tissues. For months all I could do was lay or sit on my floor, cry, and blow out the pain into tissues or (most of the time) toilet paper. There I was, on my floor, when I realized nobody could come and take this suffering away. If I was going to find a way to enjoy being in the world, it was up to me to make it happen.

Out of my loss came this need, desire, to feel good, to feel cared for. But no matter how much other people tried to nurture me, they couldn’t.

Little-by-little, I realized that the only person who could take care of me, make me a priority, make me feel good, was me. I had to undo alot of what I had been taught and if I wanted to change the way I lived in the world I was going to have to change the way I interacted with it. This meant shifting the way I interacted with myself, others, and in turn the world.

If I wanted to feel more ease and peace within my relationships, it was up to me to figure out how to make that happen.

And I did. And this is what I want to share with you. 

For the last six years I've used a proprietary process called the Kane Intentional Communication Practice^TM that helps high achieving individuals speak their truth, better control their emotions, and have clear decision making. 

I started sharing this practice to help others suffer less. I've been where you are and I know what it's like to struggle with expressing yourself, being passive aggressive, judgmental, constantly reacting and exaggerating - beating yourself up and wanting more peace and ease. I spent thirty years not asking for what I needed, constantly feeling like what I had to say wasn't valuable or necessary and that the other person's opinion and voice mattered more than my own. It took me a long time to figure this all out and I don't want you to do it alone. 

What I also get to do with this work is keep Mau's memory alive. Every person I reach or teach gets to know him somehow, meaning they know his name, what he meant to me, and so he lives on and in a way, it gives his death purpose. He was funny, honest, direct, caring and thoughtful - and he didn't care so much about what other people thought. He expressed himself without fear and enjoyed life. 

This way of communicating that I created after Mau died is what's allowed me to love again and be in a healthy and thriving marriage, do what I love, and have calm and relaxed interactions with myself, my family, and my kids. 

Now, what I want to do is give you the same opportunity. I want to help you learn how to express yourself in a non-judgmental way, become confident, improve your relationships, control your emotions, create ease in relationships, release shame and guilt, empower you in decision making, and help heal generational wounds.

It's time.

 You are a high achieving individual looking to experience more peace so that you can show up authentically in your most important relationships

You want to heal generational trauma

There have been conversations you know you need to have with your partner, children or at work and haven’t

You talk yourself out of saying things at home and at work, labeling them as not important so you don’t rock the boat

You’re noticing that you’re lashing out more with those you love, getting passive aggressive or just shutting down altogether

Your relationship with your partner and children feel more distant and disconnected than ever before

You're having the same arguments and fights again and again with your family without anything getting resolved

Others at work have commented on how you're difficult to connect with and talk to

Everything feels like a chore and you’re on autopilot most days and when you’re not, you’re dreaming about leaving or moving or being anywhere other than where you are

 You get panic attacks before speaking to large groups of people

When you bring things up in meetings, you feel ignored, or that other people’s opinions matter more than yours

 You want to express yourself clearly and concisely

You want to feel confident in decision making

You are ready to be more honest and in control of your emotions

YOU HAVE A CHOICE TO MAKE

DO IT YOURSELF AND CONTINUE TO BE

Frustrated by the way you're interacting with those you love and those you don't even know. And frustrated that you can't change this negative communication loop

Struggling to keep your emotions in check with your children and at work, unable to not take things personally, get defensive, lash out, shut down, or get passive aggressive

Feeling numb. Things your partner says or does doesn't bother you anymore, because you've chosen to ignore them, not feel them, and move on

Disconnected from your partner, friends, colleagues, but also yourself. Wondering where you've gone all these years and if it's possible to find your voice again

Anxious and fearful to have conversations with your partner, kids, sister, brother, and general worry about life. The world doesn't feel like such a friendly place

A lot of negative loops in your mind. Self judgment and judging others over where you are in life, career, relationships

Feel unappreciated at home, misunderstood at work, invisible in your interactions with family. Very indecisive in most situations- where the needs of your colleagues, partner, friends come before your own

Avoid conflict with your partner, children, colleagues at all costs. Scared to have difficult conversations
