  • Amazing Interviewer!

    Doug is an amazing interviewer. He has a great capacity to create psychological safety for his interviewee. As a result, he helps them share more important information in more human, interesting ways that would normally be the case. I imagine he does the same for his coaching clients. The topics and guests that Doug selects provide information that all leaders can use. Listening to his pod casts on a regular basis is like taking a high level MBA class, but without the tuition and tests!

Your Body on Stress

Resilience is about optimal adaptability and the ability to bounce forward, which includes agility and thriving as interconnected aspects; it's not just bouncing back but using growth, learning, and healing to move through change.

The nine pillars form a holistic model that starts with the relationship with yourself, then others, and something greater, followed by organismic balance in physical, mental, and emotional domains, and finally engagement with the world through presence, flexibility, and power.
