Well, this is exciting! The Managing Editor at Businessweek.com asked the Handel Group to be career coaches for their website! As I prepare to film some short clips on topics such as "How Do You Turn Your Weaknesses Into Strengths?," I thought I'd share the collective insights of the Handel coaches on this topic, with you, my faithful readers!

"What's Haunting You?"
President HGPCD

Thank you all for reading my blog. I love that you do. And, as thrilling as it is to be the center of attention, I also want to share the limelight as much as possible with people who are demonstrating the power of using the Handel Method and getting the most out of coaching.

"Manifesting 101"
President HGPCD

Everyone has been asking me about manifesting lately. Maybe it's because I am obsessed with it. Maybe it is because the upcoming One Day Urban Retreat has that as its theme. Regardless, I have been purposely musing and synthesizing on the subject for your benefit.

President of HG Private Coaching Division

"My Thoughts on the Current Economic Climate"

What does the "economic crisis" have to do with life coaching? Here's a little secret, HG coaches like it when chickens come home to roost. Major life changes and tragedies have a way of waking people up and making them deal.

We are highlighting February, or “Love month,” coming up and I thought this email thread below would fit perfectly. It was sent to me by a participant in the Sex, Intimacy and Staying in Love tele-seminar and I think it is inspiring as well as being the very best kind of commercial for what we do here at the Handel Group every day.

Valentine's Day is almost upon us - what a great opportunity to design life. Did you know you have the right to say how Valentine's Day will be for you, whether or not you are in a relationship? You can make sure that you are going to have a great and loving day. I know it's hokey, but this cliché is true: love is a verb. While I'm at it: it's better to give than receive.

It turns out this blog is kind of a confessional for me. I think that works for you and me, doesn’t it? Lying never pays. As an HG life coach, this is something we always try to teach.

I lied, and now I am going to share the fascinating results with you.

When I read Diane’s story in the June blog, Living in A Sea of Beliefs, I got totally inspired to share my story as well. Hi, it’s me, Laurie Gerber, President of the Private Coaching Division. Those of you who know me now or for the past 4 years since I had my second child know me as a petite size 4 who is almost entirely consistent at staying between 116.5 and 118.5lbs on my scale.

So, of course, since the Sex, Intimacy and Staying in Love (SIS) just started, I had to have a juicy fight with my darling husband last night. Please promise me you’ll at least try not to judge me too harshly if I tell you the truth about how I really am. The Handel Method is all about how the truth sets you free, and it always does! So, I guess I’ll confess for my own good.
