Every organization\, group\, or individual benefits greatly from professional coaching. Join the growing profession! \n\n\n\nWe are ready to launch our next professional coaching academy this spring\, April 11. We have been in operation since 2021. Students are graduating as highly impactful coaches and are taking the next step with ICF to be certified as either ACC or PCC coaches. \n\n\n\nInformational Sessions Available Upon Request to Introduce a Coaching Pathway and Answer Questions\n\n\n\nGeared toward the working adult \n\n\n\n6-month certification program to prepare you in becoming a professional coach \n\n\n\nTo find out details\, email Dr. Kathy Norwood directly using our contact form and she will follow up via email and provide a zoom informational session. \n\n\n\n\nEmail Dr. Kathy Norwood Your Questions\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClasses Now Forming. Space is Limited.\n\n\n\nInternational Academy of Professional Coaching\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe awaken the genius and passion within—activating the Positive Core that transforms accomplished professionals into extraordinary coaches and leaders. Through a powerful integration of Appreciative Inquiry\, coherence\, and evidence-based practice\, we blend tradition with innovation to cultivate the next generation of change-makers. Our coaches and leaders learn to inspire possibility\, envision bold futures\, navigate complexity with clarity\, and communicate with intention—while generating resilience and coherence within themselves and the systems they serve.\n\n\n\nThe C{R}A Difference: Cross Fertilization of Research\, Theory\, Knowledge\, Practice\n\n\n\nAt Coaches {R}evolution™ Academy\, we honor a definition of “best current knowledge” that extends far beyond Eurocentric ideals. We draw upon diverse ways of knowing—modern research\, timeless theories\, and the wisdom traditions of cultures across the world. By cross-fertilizing research\, practice\, and lived experience\, we believe coaching potential expands—not only within education\, but across every professional and human context. \n\n\n\nAt the center of this journey is personal development. Participants are invited to reflect deeply: Who am I becoming\, and how do I prepare myself to engage in transformational coaching that touches hearts\, expands minds\, and awakens possibility? \n\n\n\nTrue transformation—whether in classrooms\, boardrooms\, communities\, or organizations—requires cultivating the intellectual\, emotional\, behavioral\, spiritual\, and relational capacities that inspire lasting change. This work also calls us to hold equity and inclusion as guiding commitments\, recognizing that profound coaching begins with the courage to embody change within ourselves. \n\n\n\nOur program is designed to be flexible and responsive. Whether your context is early childhood\, higher education\, human resources\, leadership\, executive coaching\, business\, or beyond\, you will be able to customize your learning journey. What unites us is not our title\, but our shared calling to coach with presence\, purpose\, and impact. \n\n\n\nReview Modules 1-5Total 150 Coach Specific Education Hours \n\n\n\nDepending on your goals this program may satisfy the needs of a training program or certification you wish to gain. See International Coaching Federation credentialing requirements BY CLICKING HERE. \n\n\n\nOur Mission at C{R}A\n\n\n\nWe exist to bridge professional coaching into the fabric of personal and professional life\, activating the Positive Core and cultivating coaches and leaders who inspire possibility\, envision new futures\, navigate complexity\, and foster resilience and coherence within individuals and systems. \n\n\n\nOur Vision at C{R}A\n\n\n\nWe envision a world where coaches ignite the genius and passion within every individual—elevating educators and professionals into brilliance and co-creating more equitable\, human-centered\, and inspiring environments for learning and work. \n\n\n\nTeaching Philosophy at C{R}A\n\n\n\nOur educational approach applies adult learning theory for the working adult customized to their context. The program is flexible\, practice-oriented\, competency-based\, and grounded in educator-driven inquiry. We use a proven cohort learning model to create a vibrant\, collaborative learning community built on inclusion and mutual respect. We apply the gradual release of responsibility model—To\, With\, and By—where instructors teach\, model\, walk along-side\, and coach individuals through the differing aspects of the program toward a level of independence. Budding coaches discover their professional identity as coach\, anchor their learning through the compilation of a portfolio that houses the full requirements of the course\, and complete certification with C{R}A. \n\n\n\nEvidence-Based Coaching\n\n\n\nWe use the term evidence-based to refer to an informed approach to coaching\, which\, as Stober and Grant (Evidence Based Coaching Handbook\, 2006) stated\, consists of “the intelligent and conscientious use of best current knowledge integrated with practitioner expertise in making decisions about how to deliver coaching to individual coaching clients” (p. 6). The value of this approach is that it “provides theoretical frameworks\, information\, critical thinking\, and methodological rigor that the practitioner can use to navigate the ever-changing waters of the coaching intervention” (p. 6). \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nJoin us as we lay out a coach training path that can work for you. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe Envision the creation of a world-wide movement that paves the way for transformational leaders and coaches to become highly qualified for professional coach credentialing with the International Coach Federation. As catalysts of change\, these leaders are visionaries who embrace foundational evidence-based approaches while also transcending convention to achieve individual and systemic transformation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA FEW QUOTES FROM DR. NORWOOD’S COACH TRAINING SESSIONS\n\n\n\nI was incredibly fortunate that Kathy Norwood was my coach and mentor during my coaching training. Kathy is a wise repository of coaching research and practice and she is kind and generous.  Throughout my training she was beside me\, challenging me\, cheering me on\, and providing insights at just the best moments. She helped me find and cultivate my strengths and to coach to the unseen. Kathy is a fabulous coach and mentor. Carrie-Ann Tkaczyk\, PCC\, Instructional and Mentor Coach\, NCSD\n\n\n\nI have benefited from having Kathy\, both as a trainer and as a coach. Having Kathy as a coach who walks with you in the moment is INVALUABLE. It is the gift of space and clarification that we need. In tough situations when I wish she were here\, I then realize I have learned to internalize the process of coaching for myself. As a coach\, I have learned to stop stealing learning opportunities from others–I am providing them wait time and have learned to reframe questions to help them discover answers on their own. The power from that single moment empowers and propels them forward. Melissa Thurman\, CEO\, Educational Excellence\, Oregon\n\n\n\nKathy’s coaching sessions have given me the ability to deepen my leadership skills as a new principal. Being an educational leader is a complex job and oftentimes I found that when I was in a difficult situation Kathy could help me pinpoint my thoughts and assist me in developing an action plan. Besides being an incredible listener and thoughtful person\, she has the innate ability to ask the kinds of questions that allow me to gain insight about myself as a leader. I always leave a coaching session with Kathy feeling grounded\, confident\, and ready to tackle the next challenge.

Our unique blend of tradition and innovation engenders the next generation of leaders and coaches with greater ability to inspire\, envision\, problem-solve\, and communicate while building resilience in themselves and others.\n\n\n\nTraining in leadership\, management\, or technical expertise is no substitute for professional coach training. Coaching is a distinct profession—grounded in its own competencies\, ethics\, and methods of practice. It deserves recognition and respect as its own discipline\, rather than being seen as an extension of another field.\n\n\n\nFor those of you that are educators\, teacher and administrator training is no substitute for coach training. Educational coaching is a distinct profession\, with unique competencies and ethical foundations. It should be recognized and supported as its own discipline\, not treated as an add-on to other roles in education. \n\n\n\nThe profession of coaching has its own skill set that takes years of practice for one to become highly effective. Coaches who lack this foundation are more likely to guess\, stumble\, possibly burn bridges\, and hope that it all works out. Today\, more than ever before\, educators face unique\, high stakes challenges\, and they need well-trained leaders and coaches who have the knowledge\, experience\, and temperament to help them navigate those challenges. \n\n\n\nThe Covid-19 pandemic has engendered collective trauma across our nation. We have endured unprecedented levels of fear\, uncertainty\, grief\, anger\, and helplessness. No one has been more overwhelmed by stress and trauma than our educators\, who have had the daunting challenge of coping with the influence of the pandemic on their own families and friends\, even as they created and operated a virtual learning system from scratch or provided ongoing early childhood services for front line workers.   \n\n\n\nWhen we humans are overwhelmed from stress and trauma\, we pull out the sensitivity from our emotional and physical bodies\, leading to high levels of disembodiment. This massive amount of disembodiment creates fragmentation and separation from ourselves\, from each other\, and from the planet. The symptoms of collective trauma may include epidemics of anxiety\, depression\, and substance addiction. (Amygdala Highjack) Leaders and coaches must be prepared to work with educators or staff in other professions in radically new and creative ways. \n\n\n\nJoin us as we lay out a coach training path that can work for you. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe Envision the creation of a world-wide movement that paves the way for transformational leaders and coaches to become highly qualified for professional coach credentialing with the International Coach Federation.

Our approach blends tradition and innovation to prepare leaders and coaches who can inspire\, communicate with clarity\, solve complex challenges\, and build resilience in themselves and others. \n\n\n\nCoaching is a distinct profession—grounded in its own competencies\, ethics\, and methods of practice. Training in leadership\, management\, education\, or technical expertise may enrich coaching\, but it is no substitute for professional coach training. Across industries\, many well-intentioned professionals are asked to coach without the depth of preparation required to do so skillfully and responsibly. \n\n\n\nEffective coaching develops over time through rigorous training\, reflective practice\, and embodied presence. Without this foundation\, coaches are more likely to rely on guessing\, advising\, or problem-solving prematurely—often eroding trust and limiting impact. In today’s high-stakes environments\, professionals need coaches and leaders with the knowledge\, discernment\, and emotional capacity to navigate complexity with care. \n\n\n\nThe long arc of COVID\, combined with ongoing pressures such as rapid change\, uncertainty\, and burnout\, has reshaped professional life across every field. Many individuals and teams are still carrying the residue of chronic stress while being asked to adapt\, lead\, and perform at ever-higher levels. \n\n\n\nWhen stress accumulates without restoration\, people disconnect—from their bodies\, their relationships\, and their sense of purpose. This disconnection shows up as reactivity\, exhaustion\, anxiety\, and loss of meaning at work. \n\n\n\nCoaching grounded in coherence and Appreciative Inquiry offers a different way forward. By supporting nervous system regulation\, strengthening presence\, and engaging the Positive Core\, this approach helps professionals across all sectors move from survival to resilience\, clarity\, and possibility. In complex times\, well-trained coaches are not a luxury—they are catalysts for coherence\, hope\, and human-centered leadership. \n\n\n\nJoin us as we lay out a coach training path that can work for you. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe Envision the creation of a world-wide movement that paves the way for transformational leaders and coaches to become highly qualified for professional coach credentialing with the International Coach Federation.

Space is Limited.\n\n\n\nInternational Academy of Professional Coaching\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe Aim to Awaken the genius and passion that transforms great educators into brilliant ones. Our unique blend of tradition and innovation engenders the next generation of leaders and coaches with greater ability to inspire\, envision\, problem-solve\, and communicate while building resilience in themselves and others.\n\n\n\nTeacher and administrator training is no substitute for coach training. We believe that educational coaching is a distinct profession and\, should be treated as such.\n\n\n\nThe profession of coaching has its own skill set that takes years of practice for one to become highly effective. Coaches who lack this foundation are more likely to guess\, stumble\, possibly burn bridges\, and hope that it all works out. Today\, more than ever before\, educators face unique\, high stakes challenges\, and they need well-trained leaders and coaches who have the knowledge\, experience\, and temperament to help them navigate those challenges. \n\n\n\nThe Covid-19 pandemic has engendered collective trauma across our nation. We have endured unprecedented levels of fear\, uncertainty\, grief\, anger\, and helplessness. No one has been more overwhelmed by stress and trauma than our educators\, who have had the daunting challenge of coping with the influence of the pandemic on their own families and friends\, even as they created and operated a virtual learning system from scratch or provided ongoing early childhood services for front line workers.   \n\n\n\nWhen we humans are overwhelmed from stress and trauma\, we pull out the sensitivity from our emotional and physical bodies\, leading to high levels of disembodiment. This massive amount of disembodiment creates fragmentation and separation from ourselves\, from each other\, and from the planet. The symptoms of collective trauma may include epidemics of anxiety\, depression\, and substance addiction. (Amygdala Highjack) Leaders and coaches must be prepared to work with educators or staff in other professions in radically new and creative ways. \n\n\n\nJoin us as we lay out a coach training path that can work for you. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe Envision the creation of a world-wide movement that paves the way for transformational leaders and coaches to become highly qualified for professional coach credentialing with the International Coach Federation. As catalysts of change\, these leaders are visionaries who embrace foundational evidence-based approaches while also transcending convention to achieve individual and systemic transformation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA FEW QUOTES FROM DR. NORWOOD’S COACH TRAINING SESSIONS\n\n\n\nI was incredibly fortunate that Kathy Norwood was my coach and mentor during my coaching training. Kathy is a wise repository of coaching research and practice and she is kind and generous.  Throughout my training she was beside me\, challenging me\, cheering me on\, and providing insights at just the best moments. She helped me find and cultivate my strengths and to coach to the unseen. Kathy is a fabulous coach and mentor.

We experience a deep connection—a symphony\, if you will—an energetic musical communication between our internal systems and our beingness. There is harmony between our cardiovascular\, nervous\, hormonal\, and immune systems. Learning to activate the qualities of the heart such as appreciation\, kindness and care increases and helps to sustain heart coherence\, which facilitates physiological coherence\, which in turn supports emotional coherence\, ultimately assisting cognitive coherence. The coherent power of the heart communicates with the brain\, impacting decision making\, creativity\, and self-regulation. When in coherence\, we can maintain power and poise\, build our resilience\, and operate from our best selves. We speak with more grace\, listen more deeply\, and conduct our lives with a brain that is operating at its optimum—less mental and emotional pressure—better decision making—wiser choices—clearer communication—deeper connections—and the ability to access our inner wisdom whenever needed. We are calm\, balanced\, and feel in control of our emotional world. This sounds wonderful but how do we learn to live in this state of Beingness?

Our unique blend of tradition and innovation engenders the next generation of leaders and coaches with greater ability to inspire\, envision\, problem-solve\, and communicate while building resilience in themselves and others.\n\n\n\nTeacher and administrator training is no substitute for coach training. We believe that educational coaching is a distinct profession and\, should be treated as such.\n\n\n\nThe profession of coaching has its own skill set that takes years of practice for one to become highly effective. Coaches who lack this foundation are more likely to guess\, stumble\, possibly burn bridges\, and hope that it all works out. Today\, more than ever before\, educators face unique\, high stakes challenges\, and they need well-trained leaders and coaches who have the knowledge\, experience\, and temperament to help them navigate those challenges. \n\n\n\nThe Covid-19 pandemic has engendered collective trauma across our nation. We have endured unprecedented levels of fear\, uncertainty\, grief\, anger\, and helplessness. No one has been more overwhelmed by stress and trauma than our educators\, who have had the daunting challenge of coping with the influence of the pandemic on their own families and friends\, even as they created and operated a virtual learning system from scratch or provided ongoing early childhood services for front line workers.   \n\n\n\nWhen we humans are overwhelmed from stress and trauma\, we pull out the sensitivity from our emotional and physical bodies\, leading to high levels of disembodiment. This massive amount of disembodiment creates fragmentation and separation from ourselves\, from each other\, and from the planet. The symptoms of collective trauma may include epidemics of anxiety\, depression\, and substance addiction. (Amygdala Highjack) Leaders and coaches must be prepared to work with educators in radically new and creative ways. \n\n\n\nJoin us as we lay out a coach training path that can work for you. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe Envision the creation of a world-wide movement that paves the way for transformational leaders and coaches to become highly qualified for professional coach credentialing with the International Coach Federation. As catalysts of change\, these leaders are visionaries who embrace foundational evidence-based approaches while also transcending convention to achieve individual and systemic transformation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA FEW QUOTES FROM DR. NORWOOD’S COACH TRAINING SESSIONS\n\n\n\nI was incredibly fortunate that Kathy Norwood was my coach and mentor during my coaching training. Kathy is a wise repository of coaching research and practice and she is kind and generous.  Throughout my training she was beside me\, challenging me\, cheering me on\, and providing insights at just the best moments. She helped me find and cultivate my strengths and to coach to the unseen. Kathy is a fabulous coach and mentor. Carrie-Ann Tkaczyk\, PCC\, Instructional and Mentor Coach\, NCSD\n\n\n\nI have benefited from having Kathy\, both as a trainer and as a coach. Having Kathy as a coach who walks with you in the moment is INVALUABLE. It is the gift of space and clarification that we need. In tough situations when I wish she were here\, I then realize I have learned to internalize the process of coaching for myself. As a coach\, I have learned to stop stealing learning opportunities from others–I am providing them wait time and have learned to reframe questions to help them discover answers on their own. The power from that single moment empowers and propels them forward. Melissa Thurman\, CEO\, Educational Excellence\, Oregon\n\n\n\nKathy’s coaching sessions have given me the ability to deepen my leadership skills as a new principal. Being an educational leader is a complex job and oftentimes I found that when I was in a difficult situation Kathy could help me pinpoint my thoughts and assist me in developing an action plan. Besides being an incredible listener and thoughtful person\, she has the innate ability to ask the kinds of questions that allow me to gain insight about myself as a leader. I always leave a coaching session with Kathy feeling grounded\, confident\, and ready to tackle the next challenge. Andrea Sande\, Former Principal; State Consultant for Educational Excellence\, Oregon\n\n\n\n\nWe must learn how to work with and guide adult learners toward new levels of competence\, problem- solving capabilities\, creativity\, and higher levels of achievement\, while honoring and respecting their humanity and capacity to find their own answers.   \n(Norwood\, 2007)\n\n\n\n\nSEE CALENDAR OF EVENTS URL:https://coachesevolve.com/event/professional-coach-training-informational-session-2/ LOCATION:Nevada CATEGORIES:Virtual Classes ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://coachesevolve.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/IACP-Informational-QandA-2024.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240410T123000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240412T153000 DTSTAMP:20260421T060937 CREATED:20240214T205422Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240409T152307Z UID:3491-1712752200-1712935800@coachesevolve.com SUMMARY:Oregon 2024 - Early Learning Conference DESCRIPTION:The goal of the conference is to serve PreK-2 programs in Oregon with presentations on cutting-edge research and best practices from educators throughout the state.

We speak with more grace\, listen more deeply\, and conduct our lives with a brain that is operating at its optimum—less mental and emotional pressure—better decision making—wiser choices—clearer communication—deeper connections—and the ability to access our inner wisdom whenever needed. We are calm\, balanced\, and feel in control of our emotional world. This sounds wonderful but how do we learn to live in this state of Beingness? Join our Coherent Coach Series to find out and experience for yourselves.  \n\n\n\nClasses Starting February 12thLearn More & Register URL:https://coachesevolve.com/event/registration-open-for-coherence-advantage-program/ LOCATION:Nevada CATEGORIES:Virtual Classes ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://coachesevolve.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/IP_4_blue-men-not-text_-300-1.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20231120T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20231204T150000 DTSTAMP:20260421T060938 CREATED:20231107T215255Z LAST-MODIFIED:20231107T225645Z UID:3169-1700474400-1701702000@coachesevolve.com SUMMARY:Professional Coach Training Informational Session (Mid November to December) DESCRIPTION:Informational Question & Answer Sessions (Choose From the 13 Virtual Sessions Listed Below.

Our unique blend of tradition and innovation engenders the next generation of leaders and coaches with greater ability to inspire\, envision\, problem-solve\, and communicate while building resilience in themselves and others.\n\n\n\nTeacher and administrator training is no substitute for coach training. We believe that educational coaching is a distinct profession and\, should be treated as such.\n\n\n\nThe profession of coaching has its own skill set that takes years of practice for one to become highly effective. Coaches who lack this foundation are more likely to guess\, stumble\, possibly burn bridges\, and hope that it all works out. Today\, more than ever before\, educators face unique\, high stakes challenges\, and they need well-trained leaders and coaches who have the knowledge\, experience\, and temperament to help them navigate those challenges. \n\n\n\nThe Covid-19 pandemic has engendered collective trauma across our nation. We have endured unprecedented levels of fear\, uncertainty\, grief\, anger\, and helplessness. No one has been more overwhelmed by stress and trauma than our educators\, who have had the daunting challenge of coping with the influence of the pandemic on their own families and friends\, even as they created and operated a virtual learning system from scratch or provided ongoing early childhood services for front line workers.   \n\n\n\nWhen we humans are overwhelmed from stress and trauma\, we pull out the sensitivity from our emotional and physical bodies\, leading to high levels of disembodiment. This massive amount of disembodiment creates fragmentation and separation from ourselves\, from each other\, and from the planet. The symptoms of collective trauma may include epidemics of anxiety\, depression\, and substance addiction. (Amygdala Highjack) Leaders and coaches must be prepared to work with educators in radically new and creative ways. \n\n\n\nJoin us as we lay out a coach training path that can work for you. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe Envision the creation of a world-wide movement that paves the way for transformational leaders and coaches to become highly qualified for professional coach credentialing with the International Coach Federation. As catalysts of change\, these leaders are visionaries who embrace foundational evidence-based approaches while also transcending convention to achieve individual and systemic transformation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA FEW QUOTES FROM DR. NORWOOD’S COACH TRAINING SESSIONS \n\n\n\n\nI was incredibly fortunate that Kathy Norwood was my coach and mentor during my coaching training. Kathy is a wise repository of coaching research and practice and she is kind and generous.  Throughout my training she was beside me\, challenging me\, cheering me on\, and providing insights at just the best moments. She helped me find and cultivate my strengths and to coach to the unseen. Kathy is a fabulous coach and mentor.CARRIE-ANN TKACZYK\, PCC\, INSTRUCTIONAL AND MENTOR COACH\, NCSD \n\n\n\n\n\nI have benefited from having Kathy\, both as a trainer and as a coach. Having Kathy as a coach who walks with you in the moment is INVALUABLE. It is the gift of space and clarification that we need. In tough situations when I wish she were here\, I then realize I have learned to internalize the process of coaching for myself. As a coach\, I have learned to stop stealing learning opportunities from others–I am providing them wait time and have learned to reframe questions to help them discover answers on their own. The power from that single moment empowers and propels them forward.MELISSA THURMAN\, CEO\, EDUCATIONAL EXCELLENCE\, OREGON \n\n\n\n\n\nKathy’s coaching sessions have given me the ability to deepen my leadership skills as a new principal. Being an educational leader is a complex job and oftentimes I found that when I was in a difficult situation Kathy could help me pinpoint my thoughts and assist me in developing an action plan. Besides being an incredible listener and thoughtful person\, she has the innate ability to ask the kinds of questions that allow me to gain insight about myself as a leader. I always leave a coaching session with Kathy feeling grounded\, confident\, and ready to tackle the next challenge.ANDREA SANDE\, FORMER PRINCIPAL; STATE CONSULTANT FOR EDUCATIONAL EXCELLENCE\, OREGON \n\n\n\n\nWe must learn how to work with and guide adult learners toward new levels of competence\, problem- solving capabilities\, creativity\, and higher levels of achievement\, while honoring and respecting their humanity and capacity to find their own answers.  (Norwood\, 2007) URL:https://coachesevolve.com/event/professional-coach-training-informational-session-mid-november-to-december/ LOCATION:ZOOM CATEGORIES:Virtual Classes ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://coachesevolve.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/IACP.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230624T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230717T180000 DTSTAMP:20260421T060938 CREATED:20230620T143617Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230620T143619Z UID:2296-1687622400-1689616800@coachesevolve.com SUMMARY:The Coherence Advantage™ Program DESCRIPTION:Resilience skills for clear choices\, optimal function\, innovative action \n\n\n\nLeaders\, Coaches\, Teachers\, Staff\n\n\n\nCoherence Advantage™: Maximizing Power and Poise\n\n\n\n\nCease trying to work everything out with your minds.
