Ready to Keep Your Cool with Family and Friends? 

ENROLL NOW

It’s been a week, months, or years since you’ve been struggling to become less reactive with your family and friends and able to express yourself in a calm, clear and loving way.

You're starting to doubt yourself and question what you're modeling for your kids.

You're stressed and overwhelmed and the constant drama and fighting has you up during the night with anxiety and worry.

You can't stop defending yourself or over-explaining or bringing up the past to make a point. 

You get stuck not feeling worthy or confident to communicate your needs and instead lash out and explode.

You also have started shutting down around certain family members or friends because you don't want an argument and so the frustration builds and comes out in different ways.

When you do share and express yourself you feel that people aren't listening to you. They ignore or dismiss what you've said and nothing changes. 

And when others share with you, it's hard to not get defensive or react in a way that you don't regret or feel bad about later. 

You're exhausted.   

Well… that’s where me and my team come in.

The Intentional Communication Training Program is a group coaching program for those who are ready to become less reactive with their family and friends and who want to feel a sense of peace and freedom in their closest relationships.

We've helped thousands of our students go from exploding, getting defensive, shutting down, and becoming passive aggressive with their family and friends to becoming more responsive. 

The Intentional Communication Training Program is a group coaching program for those who are ready to get the respect they deserve at work and who want to feel a sense of community and collaboration during the working day.

We've helped thousands of our students who feel stuck or helpless in their career change their reality and start being seen and heard and appreciated. 

Now, it's your turn.

 

Now, it's your turn.

 

 

starYou wish you could enjoy your time with your family, so that it doesn't always end up in a fight over some misunderstanding, but you don't know where to start

starstar Stressed and exhausted, you feel so misunderstood  that it's making you doubt your abilities

starYou avoid having conversations with your partner, kids, parents, siblings, and friends because you know how it's going to go and it never ends well

star You don't feel like you can be yourself or say what you want to so you bottle it all up inside and then bring your frustration and anger out on those you love

You really just want someone to take you by the hand and share with you how to stop yelling, defending  explaining, getting passive aggressive,  or shutting down with those closest to you. How to instead speak in a calm, clear and helpful way. One that is kind and collaborative and heard. You want to know how to stop interrupting and have difficult conversations without getting emotional. You want to know how to let go of the doubt and worry and fear that has you stressed, anxious, and overwhelmed. 

ENROLL NOW

Oh, hi ... that's me! I'm Cynthia, and my team and I are here to help you become less reactive with your family and friends and express yourself calmly, clearly and easily.

 

Our work is specifically dedicated to communication and a practice that teaches you how to be responsive and express yourself in a way that you’re seen, heard, and respected.

I know it may be hard to imagine now having your child yell at you and you're able to stand their calmly and listen and then respond without anger or to be at the dinner table with your whole family and not get pulled into the drama so that you're no longer taking on everyone else's problems, but … it is possible.

Imagine what you’re going to feel like once you have control of what's coming out of your mouth and how you're interacting? When you can express your wants and needs consciously, clearly, and concisely instead of reacting.

Imagine how it will feel to ask your partner, kids, parents, siblings or friends for what you need without worrying about their reaction. 

What would your day-to-day look like if you weren't filled with an uneasy feeling of dread?

What could communicating intentionally do for your family and friendships? 

starFreedom: Being able to feel fun and joy and laughter again. No longer stuck and trapped in the same cycle of dissatisfaction

starTime: No more constant ruminating and thinking about what you've said or didn't say and what you should've said. No more beating yourself up for absolutely everything all the time

starConfidence: Expressing yourself clearly and concisely knowing you believe what you're saying is valuable and necessary

starConnection: Having more meaningful conversations that create more connection and intimacy

starClarity: Knowing what the issue is and why it's upsetting you and then sharing it in a way your kids, partner, parents, siblings, or friends can hear

starNo regrets: No longer holding back or letting fear dictate your choices

Without a training like this you're bound to react, worry about what you said or didn't say, spend most of your time complaining or arguing and ruminating, keep inside what you really want to say because you're afraid it's silly, and hold back so much of what's true for you that regrets start piling up. 

ENROLL NOW

The Intentional Communication Training Program is like no other program you've experienced before.

Many of the students we work with say to us, "why did I wait so long to do this?"

We've had multiple students not commit for one reason or another and then come back months, years later on the verge of divorce, their children now deciding to move out or they've stopped talking altogether. They've lost close friendships and have started speaking with their parents and siblings less and less.

If they would have listened to their intuition and joined the training when they first found it, they could have worked through these difficulties and learned practices to help them through these moments.

Your life before the Intentional Communication Training Program

Upset by the way you're reacting to those you love and that you can't change this negative communication loop

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

Feeling misunderstood. The way you're communicating doesn't reflect your true intentions

Anxious and fearful to have difficult conversations with your family and friends for fear of the reaction 

Knowing you're struggling but unable to ask for help and instead you take on more 

 

Your life after the Intentional Communication Training Program

Calm and relaxed conversations with your family and friends. No longer worried about what to say and how to say it

Confident in expressing your wants and needs clearly and concisely so those you love can hear it

No longer gripped by the fear of expressing yourself and your needs, you know how to fix what's not working

You know what to do when you say something and those around you react negatively or harshly

You know how to stand up for yourself and ask for what you want and stop walking on eggshells trying to make everything right all the time

You know how to stop arguments before they begin and de-escalate them once they've started

You can go to bed feeling fulfilled and sleep through the night

More self-compassion and less self- evaluation and judgment. Less doubt and mental chatter that paralyzes you with fear and worry

Able to have difficult conversations that you've been too scared to have

Capable of getting your needs met and setting and sticking to boundaries

You have two choices ...

 

STAY STUCK

You can stay on the struggle bus, trying to figure everything out on your own with no guidance, training or support. Hoping and praying that it will work.

REACH YOUR GOALS

You can just get the proven step by step system that myself and THOUSANDS of others before you have used to become less reactive  and  express themselves and be heard by their family and friends. Where you let go of the self-judgement and anxiety and overwhelm.

Think about where you want your relationship with your family and friends to be six months from now. Heck, think of where you want to be three weeks from now. Do you have a step-by-step plan on how to get there?

Without a plan your day-to-day  will continue to feel strained and on the verge of falling apart; your reactions will fuel the cycle and the fear of expressing yourself will continue and keep you feeling stuck, undervalued and unappreciated.

If you’re ready to stop struggling, then the Intentional Communication Training Program is going to be the online training that changes everything for you.

Your chance to let go of the reactivity and express yourself calmly and be heard starts now.

 

YOU MIGHT BE THINKING

 

"I don’t have enough time"

Having time to commit to this training is definitely important. What if you substituted time for why you’re ready for the training? You’re saying then that you don’t have enough time to improve your marriage, your relationship with your children, your parents or siblings, friends. All that is required to make this easy is for you to make your relationships with your family and friends your priority for the next 14 weeks.

"I don’t think I can do it."

I know what it’s like to think you can’t do it. And that thought of, "what if it works for everyone else and doesn’t work for me?" But I’m telling you right now, we won’t let that happen! Throughout this training you’re going to build your confidence and we’re with you every step of the way. You aren’t alone in this training.

I've worked with thousands of people to help them become more intimate with their partner, be taken seriously, heard and respected.

Those listed here are just a handful of them. Please remember, they all worked very hard to become successful and your results will vary depending on your commitment to the work.

Sadiqa 

" just in the five weeks that we've been working together, I have found that my life has changed. It's made my relationships much richer all relationships, but especially my intimate relationship with my husband specifically. And it really has been amazing. Even in just five weeks, I can see a tangible difference in my life. And this is the difference that there were times when I thought I could never and would never see. So I certainly recommend the training.”

 

 

Michelle

"I am more confident in my interactions. I swear less. I have less judgment if any at all. I am more present in my conversations. I am more patient and tolerant of others. I think more before I speak. I am more silent in conversations and allow others to finish speaking before I talk. I am in a better mood when I speak to people."

 

Danielle

"This training has been life changing. I learned how to listen to my inner voice and identify the emotions that I was experiencing that I never before could identify. Now there may be difficult conversations but I am able to negotiate through them much better and am not left with that horrible feeling inside that used to linger on and on."

Hi, I'm Cynthia!

I help people enhance their lives and relationships by teaching them how to speak to themselves, others, and their environment in a kind, honest, and helpful way.

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.

I had to learn how to communicate differently to lead a more empowered life.

Now, what I want to do is give all of you the same opportunity. I want to help you learn how to take care of who you are by paying attention to how you speak in your career, relationships, life! Because you my friend deserve it.

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. So if you're ready to start having the types of interactions you desire, you're in the right place.
