Life Coaching

"Among human beings, creativity is a natural, and not an exceptional, trait.
Birds fly, fish swim, humans create."
LAURENCE BOLDT

If you have heard of "The Secret", The Creative Empowerment Program* works with these principles, teaching you the Manifestation Formula, a step-by-step process for translating thoughts into actions, ideas into results, dreams into realities. It is a systematic approach to discovering and actualizing the important visions of your life. In it you'll learn how to take charge of and maximize your creative potential in bringing about the results you seek, and how to apply the laws of attraction to make things happen more quickly!

Career Coaching

"Even as a plant grows toward the light, you will grow
toward the work you love, once you have identified it
and committed yourself to it."
LAURENCE BOLDT

The Career Empowerment Program is specifically designed to guide you through the key steps necessary to finding your true calling and shaping it into a viable career. Working with a career coach helps you determine what career to pursue—one of the most important things you will ever do in your entire life. This decision deserves your own dedication and the support of a career coach to ensure your successful progress. Read more >>

Career Assessments

Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) Personality Type Assessment: Identifying your personality type can be an important step in understanding yourself better. Knowing and understanding about your type can help you more effectively work with yourself to build the life and career that you desire. The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) Instrument is the most widely used personality inventory in the world. It is not a knowledge-based test; rather it is a preference indicator that is used to promote and enhance personal and professional growth in many areas, including personal and career development. This service is offered by Tina Boldt, certified Global Career Development Facilitator and Career Transition Coach.
