What if you could get these results in 8 weeks?
Would you do it?
Because FITNESS for the brain is just as important as physical fitness for your overall well-being, mental health, stress reduction and increased performance.
And like physical fitness, we provide a program for life. The Foundational 8-week PQ® Mental fitness-for-life program is a content-based, app-guided program with evidence-based results that actually changes the neural pathways in your brain as seen under MRI studies. View the science here.
When I weave in this app-guided program into my coaching package, it becomes an “accelerator”—because when you discover what has been getting in your way and apply the PQ tools and habits stacking techniques on a daily basis, you more quickly achieve what brought you to coaching in the first place. Just like physical fitness; mental fitness is a long game.
***As a CERTIFIED PQ COACH™ of POSITIVE INTELLIGENCE® I can offer a special price when you purchase the 8-week PQ® Mental Fitness Accelerator Program (with the app embedded inside) directly from me in the latest 2.0 version. (Only the 1.0 version is available on PQ’s website.) Together, let’s improve your fitness before the end of the year!
Testimonials:
“98% of our program participants experience an ROI.” - PQ®
In less than 2 months working with Karen and using the daily PQ® Mental Fitness app, I have already gained more confidence in myself, experience less daily stress with greater “ease & flow,” making better investment decisions, resulting in a $20k profit! I can’t wait to discover what I’ll create in Month 3!
— confidential Seattle-based client (June 2023)
I’ve achieved increased patience, increased discipline, and increased laser-focus on whatever I’m working on. I plan better. I employ better time-management strategies; overall have more confidence and feel stronger. My team comments that they see me deliver on time, on target, and they say I am better at listening to them, with less talking ‘at them’. I used the PQ® app daily the entire year of my subscription.
— H.L. Finance & Security Leader in the banking industry, Saudi (October 2022)
I reached out to Karen who introduced me to the PQ® program for mental fitness, to shift my mindset from negative to positive, to enhance my happiness and performance, and remove the obstacles in my own path, and prisoner of my own thoughts.
— Finance Leader, Oman, Shell Oman (May 2023)
I've been on a coaching journey with Karen for over a year which was transformational... I was challenged, pushed, cheered on, and held accountable to deliver. The PQ® program was the cherry on the top after a 1-year coaching commitment that pushed me even further to look inward, raise not only my self-awareness, but also my self-compassion... like all meaningful experiences in life, this program was both challenging and rewarding.
— HR Leader, Saudi Aramco (September 2020)
Every coaching session with Karen created a sustainable and powerful inner shift in clarity, confidence, and readiness to take action... the PQ® app kept me charged, engaged in between sessions... and I knew Karen was tracking me, rooting for me, and holding space for my growth.
— VP, Silicon Valley start-up (August 2021)
“Having found this PQ® Mental Fitness program post-retirement, I often reflect on what a game-changer it would have been for our organization if we had all gone through this specific program together. Sure, we achieved amazing mission outcomes, but often at the expense of sleepless nights, heated conflicts, stress, burnout, long hours, missed time with family, guilt, self-doubt, and all-around unhappiness. An initial reaction to change is a normal human response, but there is no need to suffer longer than a few seconds. So, to all my former colleagues, don’t waste another minute suffering from the sabotaging effects of your survival brain — sign up now!”
— Jennifer A.
So ask yourself: what is at the core of what’s stopping you?
fear?
imposter syndrome?
lack of confidence?
lack of leadership skills?
past trauma?
voices in your head that says “you can’t”?
What I have discovered over the decades of coaching is that it’s these fears and and thoughts and voices in our heads that stop us. Stop us from what we truly want. And deserve.
Take a moment to consider, “what’s stopping you?” Chances are it is some level of uncertainty or self-doubt that is not serving you.
And why I approach coaching from a mindset framework, addressing: “getting to the cor* of what stops you...” from taking clear, calm, laser-focused action… from being that great leader—not just good leader—you are capable of being. Of being that individual who doesn’t let her fears stop her from getting what she wants.
As a Certified PQ® Mental Fitness Coach, I lay the foundation for accelerating the development of leaders, and individuals and strengthening teams creating long-term, sustainable results in individuals and organisations by improving:
your capacity to respond to life and work challenges with a positive rather than a negative mindset.
Resulting in mastering your physiology in the ways you respond that increases: focus, confidence, resiliency and decision-making—4 top critical leadership competencies, resulting in a growth mindset.

It’s a “bootcamp in an app” which integrates whole brain experiential learning, building and sustaining new habit formations. A foundational mental fitness program that accelerates your ability to stop the negative self-talk in its tracks and give you the all the tools you need on a daily basis (simple and easy-to-do) “brain activation” techniques throughout your day that actually shifts the neural pathways in your brain with evidence-based results. Creating more laser focus action in areas of your life where you previously procrastinated. Or usually feel stress. Or burned out. Resulting in improved decision-making and an expanded capacity to generate more creative solutions to whatever problem you’re tackling— and doing it feeling more calm. (And another bonus: better sleep!)
Actual grey matter shifts under MRI scans with regular practice. Scientific evidence using the latest technology in neuroscience.

dashboard tracking your progress
May I give you a demo? Chat to see what you discover when your saboteurs are revealed?
First, schedule a complimentary debrief your saboteur session here: https://schedulewithcoachkaren.as.me/schedule/d53bd9a3/appointment/46838496/calendar/5225480
Then, calculate your “PQ Score” = Positive Intelligence Quotient to reveal your mental fitness level. What’s the current strength of your positive mental muscles versus the negative? A PQ Score of 75 is the tipping point.
Next, take the Saboteur Assessment to discover what gets in your way. Which saboteurs cause you the greatest stress? Saboteurs are the voices in your head that generate negative emotions as you handle life’s everyday challenges. They represent the automatic patterns in your mind for how to think, feel, and respond. Your Saboteurs cause all of your stress, anxiety, self-doubt, frustration, restlessness, and unhappiness. They sabotage your performance, wellbeing, and relationships.
“Becoming aware of your thought processes and limited beliefs is the first step to examining, gaining awareness, and changing behaviours that no longer serve you.” - Shirzad Chamine, CEO and Founder of POSITIVE INTELLIGENCE®
By taking this assessment, you join over 2,000,000 people from more than 120 countries who have completed this assessment as the first step in making dramatic improvements in their performance, well-being, and relationships.
I first discovered this program in May 2020 while was working overseas in Oman—during lockdown. Yes, 4 years ago! I still use it everyday. The progress my brain has made — new mental muscles —- over these 4+ years is captured on the dashboard inside the app.
Since then, I’ve been facilitating small pods (“support & accountability groups”) and weaving it into a 6-month Mental Fitness Journey that combines coaching, mental fitness content, and support to turbo-charge your brain, build your EQ leadership muscles, operationalize your growth mindset, and sustain those new neural pathways that are well-documented in the neuroscience research to achieve new and lasting results in your personal and professional life. To go beyond insight, and actually build new mental muscles. Creating neuroplasticity inside your brain. To achieve lasting change: less stress, improved performance (in both work and life), and improved self-confidence. As well as sustain the results in the above-mentioned percentages and testimonials at the top of this page.

“I had been in a coaching journey with Karen for over a year which was transformational in and of itself. I was challenged, pushed, cheered on, and held accountable to deliver. This PQ® Mental Fitness Program was the cherry on top after a one-year coaching commitment that pushed me even further to look inwards, raise not only my self awareness but also my self compassion. Like all meaningful experiences in life, this program was both challenging & rewarding. The (coaching) app is built in a way to “disrupt” your daily routine with quick & simple challenges that have big impact on your relationship with yourself, loved ones & the world. The pod was particularly helpful to connect with others, learn how they are struggling & thriving, and better understand the mental fitness content.
Coaching with Karen has been one of the best investments I’ve made. If you are unsure or waiting for a sign, JUST DO IT!”
