The guest for today’s show is Eileen McDonald. Eileen and her business partner, Pilar Angel, are partners at Axeos Performance Institute, in Dallas, where they work with Executives and Business Leaders to help them to become extraordinary every day, by teaching them to understand how their physiology impacts their behavior.
Eileen has a particularly unique approach to coaching using Biofeedback to help people to relate their behavior to their body’s responses. Her approach is one that all coaches really need to hear about and today she starts out by explaining what brought her into the world of coaching and she also talks a little bit about her business. Listen in to find out more about how Eileen uses Biofeedback devices to help people to create a state of coherence within themselves.
Eileen was a nurse for many years and through her nursing career, she went into a Health and Wellbeing type of coaching position many years before people were officially being referred to as coaches. She worked with several Executives who thought that she could really be of help to their employees and staff, this is how she initially got into working with Executives and Corporations. Listen in now, to find out more about Eileen and her unparalleled approach to coaching.
