What helped us SURVIVE the real and imagined physical and emotional threats as children, by the time we are adults, might no longer be needed. These patterns of thinking, feeling, and reacting are coded in our brain’s neural pathways. When triggered, we get “hijacked” by our Saboteurs and feel, think, and act using their patterns.

These patterns are not us. They do take an enormous amount of energy to sustain. What helped us survive is an obstacle to thriving.

In this program you will learn how to work on your patterns to free up energy to be more you. You can invest this newly gained energy into what ever you want. Being more you means also you have a healthy navigational system. This means decision making is easy and you truly know what you want in life and have energy to get it.

Gain awareness to free yourself of your habitual self sabotaging and instead see opportunity in anything life throws at you. It can help with your career, your relationships and your sense of peace and wellbeing in the world.

What we do in this program is:

  1. Identify the habitual source of negative thoughts and emotions. 

  2. Intercept this neuro-pathway using mindfulness aided by the PQ APP. 

  3. Explore how all that happens to us can be turned into a gift or opportunity. 

  4. Access our internal wise sage who responds to our circumstances in productive ways.

  5. Map out where in our life we want to bring authenticity to.

  6. Design your unique authenticity protocol.

  7. We address the obstacles and connect to resources.

  8. Regain your healthy navigational system.

  9. Stop wasting energy on protections and use it to fuel our life.

  10. Meet once a week to support and encourage each other. 

This program uses POSITIVE INTELLIGENCE app (PQ), a comprehensive program for developing mental fitness. Mental fitness transforms your self sabotaging ways and has you well on the way to self mastery. What you grow is your capacity to respond to life’s challenges with positive rather than negative mindset.

“Adrian came to me to help him deal with his avoider. Adrian’s life looked very exemplary on the surface: nice house, great relationship and a business. He was sick of himself though. He was not being present at home, escaping at the first sign of any conflict. Adrian didn’t need hookers & blow to escape his life, he instead used his work. The harder things got at home, the more life required of him, the more he would loose himself in the self importance of providing, making money and doing the responsible thing. Work became an addiction, a way of avoiding life. In his mind he made himself immune to conflict, how can you someone for being too responsible? Luckily for Adrian his own life became unbearable - he found enough reason to face his avoider. In our work together we discovered all the lies that the avoider was telling him. That nothing good comes out of conflict and that nobody needed to hear about his feelings. Doing daily PQ reps helped Adrian to catch himself anytime he was avoiding being present in his life and helped him to build new neuro-pathways. Adrian slowly started meeting things head on and when he noticed an urge to escape to work, he would gently remind himself not to, and face his discomfort. ”

Testimonials:

Taking part in this course has been a major turning point in my life. The tools really work – they give me an answer, to why I am feeling/thinking the way I am or have been: the Saboteurs. My PQ score went from below 10 to above 60.

Marta creates a very supportive group in which I felt safe and supported. Best yet I feel like it truly helped me take personal responsibility for my thoughts and emotions by doing the daily PQ reps and weekly sessions. That’s a big change from formerly being largely influenced by my victim saboteur.

What more can a person want in life to be able to grow with compassion and empathy? Sage grows stronger in me everyday.

I already sent my husband and my best friend over to Marta so that they can also reap the benefits of this program. 

– Samantha Turner, physical therapist 

Victim Saboteur

I was skeptical of the process, not believing that some daily mindfulness would begin to retrain my brain. With the guidance, support and coaching shared by Marta and our pod I have been stunned by the awareness shifting in me as I begin to train my brain to work for me rather than against me.

I can already see how this will, in turn, positively impact my workplace and my relationships moving forward!

– Brooke Edwards, heli ski guide

This program really helped me change my life because it took concepts and turned them into practical things I could do every day in order to improve my life and mindset. That is so much more valuable than anything else I’ve done to improve myself & my life.

Alice Hafer, professional rock climber  

This program gave me very practical tools to manage my stress, my emotions, and my reactions. I am so grateful for the relationships I built with my group - we are still meeting on our own outside the program!

Renée Almatierra, educator

The program has a lofty goal and it achieves it. Thoroughly and elegantly designed... no stone is left unturned. Biggest insight is the knowledge that ANY negative situation can be transformed into an opportunity for meaning and growth if I only take full responsibility for my felt experiences. The behavioral shifts are now imprinted in my psyche in a way that I know they will not be forgotten.
