About
Hi! We're Poppy and Geoff!
We want to share a decades-long discovery with you. Most relationships fail when there’s a breakdown in communication.
It happened to us a long time ago.
Many years ago, we abruptly ended our first-love relationship for only one reason.
"We did not have the right words or skills to communicate with one another in a productive way."
We’re Licensed Specialty-Certified New Life Story Wellness Coaches®.
What does this mean? It means we help you write your new life story.
We teach you step-by-step to write and edit a new narrative with yourself so that ALL of your relationships, whether it’s with a partner, a family member, a friend, a co-worker, can be heart-healthy.
With our professional accreditation and neuroscience background, we teach people how to be aware of—and diffuse—conflict and the negative messaging that they often unconsciously absorb.
Whether those undesired messages are internal, verbal, non-verbal, intoned, or inferred through micro-expressions or body language, we help people to override the thoughts, feelings and behavior that no longer make up the story of who they are.
Here’s where we come in to serve as “editors" who guide you to edit out the fear that is the foundation of your conflict story.
In writing their new story with us, people have learned how to not only break down the complexities of communication styles, they’ve mastered the “right” language to communicate respectfully, empathically, and productively, in their interpersonal relationships.
“Our expertise is simple: we get people talking. As one of the nation’s top relationship experts, we guide people with our patented Emotional Clock® to get them to the next best thought or feeling.”
