Will you be the next success story?

"I can confidently confirm that I am a better manager since starting my Lead Yourself UP learning journey with Katarina and Jean-François. Through mindfulness, emotional regulation, and healthy management of the body and mind, the program has helped me identify habits and behaviors that could derail my ambitions. The concepts learned have enabled me to self-regulate more consciously, which has a major impact on my ability to make better decisions and be more engaged and impactful."

Amilie Allard
Vice-President, People & Culture, Eddyfi Technologies

Before starting the Lead Yourself UP Program, I faced several challenges, including a heavy workload and stress. The program taught me to manage stress more constructively and adopt a more conscious approach to frustrations. Instead of reacting impulsively, I learned to channel my stress which enabled me to "step onto the balcony" and analyze situations from an overall perspective.

I highly recommend this program at all management levels. Often, we focus on knowledge and skills, neglecting the importance of self-awareness and emotional intelligence; an essential competence that is recognized as crucial yet difficult to cultivate.

Tung Tran
Deputy Director General of Mental Health, Santé Québec

"I greatly appreciated the hybrid format of self-paced learning combined with live virtual sessions; it made acquiring knowledge enjoyable, easy, relevant, and iterative. This program is beneficial for everyone, from individual contributors to team leaders and executives, as it provides effective access to a set of tools that make them more resilient and better equipped to face the challenges of professional and personal life, naturally improving performance and leading to a quest for a happier, balanced, and healthier self."

Zied Hammami
Senior Consulting Account Executive, Microsoft

"The course provided me with tools to develop much better listening skills with my colleagues and collaborators, learning to suspend judgment and to be more curious about others. The course enabled me to exercise more authentic leadership, allowing me to be vulnerable with my team. It also made me aware of the importance of managing my energy levels by clearing my very busy schedule. Creating space allows me to be more creative, resilient, and attentive to my teams."

CATHERINE MORNEAU
Co-president, Groupe Morneau

"Thank you both for putting together this superb training program. I did much more than just learn during the course; I integrated the concepts and am now more connected with myself in my role as a manager and father. This training accelerates personal and emotional growth and establishes solid foundations for the future. I recommend this training to any leader wishing to evolve in excellence with care for oneself and others."

PIERRE ROUSSEAU
Vice-President of Sales

"It is an important introspective necessary to get "unstuck". I have been working in a fast-paced environment, adding more and more responsibilities, and forgetting myself in the process. Prior to joining Lead Yourself Up, I had started a new leadership position, in a new organization, including new challenges and many, many changes. I was, at times, overwhelmed, even though I never admitted it. This program re-taught me how to center myself so that I can be better for others and make space for more. Katarina and JF guided me on a journey of self-finding and resourcing, with a big focus on personal accountability. Every session felt like a "safe zone" and an opportunity to be vulnerable in our growth. And I have so much gratitude and respect for Kat and JF's process and culture! Thank you."

Sarah Davidson
Director, Casting & Performance, Feld Entertainment

"Completing the program, I underwent a significant transformation. I gained tangible tools to manage my stress and improve my communication skills. Katarina and Jean-François' teachings allowed me to refocus and become a better version of myself. This evolution had a considerable impact, not only in my work but also in my personal life. I succeeded in better time management, being more effective at work, and allocating more time to what truly matters to me."

Mathieu Caron
Founder and artistic director, Feeling by Mathieu Caron

"On a personal level, the program allowed me to develop new skills and sharpened my mindfulness. Thanks to the reflections and the tools at my disposal, I know better the factors that allow me to be the best version of myself!"

NICOLAS COULOMBE
Chief Security Officer (CSO), Desjardins

"As a results-oriented leader with a bias for action, I had been seeking tools to help me slow down, peek around blind spots and better round out my leadership. There is no doubt that this program has helped me be a better 'corporate athlete', more inclusive leader, and a more present husband and father."

JUSTIN ST-ONGE
Sales Director, Business Markets, Bell Canada

"I am now better able to listen to my needs and my values so that I can respond more effectively and skillfully to the various challenges I face personally and professionally. I am able to better understand the dynamics of others and what motivates them to act in a way different from mine."

MICHEL RIOUX
Project and Production Director, Hangzhou, Cirque du Soleil

"This program shares knowledge on energy management and improving our perspectives on our actions and ways of thinking. I learned to highlight and balance my thought patterns and values. This has helped me align with the things that I am passionate about. I recommend it to everyone who wants to embark on a journey towards a better life, both professionally and personally. I invite you to participate."

I am here to tell you that it is time for you to break free from these patterns that are weighing you down and start crafting the life you genuinely desire.

This program is for you if any of these resonate:

Your days are a blur of meetings and appointments, leaving little time to catch your breath.

Disconnecting from work is difficult, even in your downtime.

Exhaustion has become your weekend companion, robbing you of the energy to enjoy life.

You find yourself constantly prioritizing and reacting to others' needs, neglecting your own in the process.

Self-care feels like a foreign concept, buried beneath a mountain of responsibilities.

Rest seems like a luxury you can't afford, leaving you perpetually drained.

It isn't easy at times to distance yourself emotionally and act from a calm and centered state.

Sleep eludes you, with restless nights and recurring aches and pains.

Afternoon energy crashes and relentless cravings dominate your day.

Productivity takes a hit as external distractions and multi-tasking hijack your focus.

Does this resonate?

It's time for you to regain control over your life, and start Leading Yourself UP.
