A note from Phyllis...
"In the past 100 years, over 50 Nobel prizes have been awarded for breakthroughs in neuroscience. One important insight from this research is the older brain is a better brain. Put some of this theory into practice to improve your brain at any age and achieve your goals. It has worked for me, and it can work for you!"

Once tapped, you will be amazed at how you can enrich your brain power and utilize it for winning new sales, new clients, a new position and so much more!
Brain Basics for Winning at Work
Your brain has a Chief Operating Officer--the default network, in charge of the integration and intrinsic motivation behind peak performance without exhaustion. In this session, you will learn STEPP, the five basic plays your brain's COO needs from you to deliver on even your stretch goals.
The Positive Brain at Work
Recent scientific findings indicate emotions run the brain, for better or for worse. This program reviews the best brain exercises to build new connections in the left prefrontal cortex, the only brain area powerful enough to overcome negative emotions. This technique builds a positive outlook for improved communication and productivity.

Testimonials
“Phyllis was my Field Director when I first started with Northwestern Mutual and she continues to be a mentor and coach today. I have participated in her program in the past and I would highly recommend it! I think it is important to take time out of our busy professional lives to not only work on our businesses, but also work on ourselves.”
“You know how sometimes when we take a class or workshop we can feel that there's been a shift? Well, I felt that way. I got so much out of the sessions and I certainly feel like I'm moving in a new and different direction. Or perhaps I'm just moving again, when I had been stagnant for a while, and it feels really good.”
"That is great news that I can learn anything. This is exciting, I can do more...YAY!"
"The program made me realize that I'm truly resistant to change...I need to become FEARLESS!"
