GET INTO ACTION: Understanding & Conquering Procrastination, Overthinking, Bad Habits & Imposter Syndrome +

In the fast-paced business world, stressors like imposter syndrome, overthinking, bad habits and procrastination can severely hinder productivity and job satisfaction.

“Studies reveal that 85% of people suffer from a lack of self-confidence, while 70% admit to experiencing imposter syndrome at work. “

Imposter syndrome, marked by feelings of fraudulence and inadequacy, undermines confidence and stifles initiative, leading to missed opportunities and career stagnation. Overthinking traps individuals in analysis paralysis, delaying decision-making and compromising quality, while procrastination and bad habits breeds rushed work, missed deadlines, and heightened stress levels.

“Research demonstrate that we lose in average 2.5 hours per day in this kind of emotional drama.”

For an organization of 100 employees, at an average of $30 per hour, this translates to a $1,800,000 loss per year. People know what they want or need to do, and yet, sometimes, they do the reverse or do nothing at all, sending the ball over to someone else, wasting valuable time and energy.

GET INTO ACTION explores the reasons behind overthinking, bad habits, imposter syndrome and procrastination. You will acquire a better understanding of how to break free from these toxic cycles and take action towards achieving your goals. You will leave with practical strategies to implement immediately that will contribute to cultivate environments conducive to innovation, productivity, and well-being.

LIGHT UP YOUR INNER FIRE: Confidence to Ignite Performance, Thrive through Change & Unlock Full Potential +

On the surface, most people are reasonably confident. But the challenge is: there has never been a time when things were happening faster than today. Juggling with multiple challenges at once is common. With the layers of stress people are already buried under, high-stakes decisions are sometimes clouded by emotional drama or limiting beliefs, instead of being made based on skills and experience.

Studies reveal that 85% of people suffer from a lack of self-confidence in at least one area of their lives.

“It’s never going to work! I will never reach my target numbers! No way I can apply for this leadership position!”

Negative self-talk adds an extra layer of self-doubt which creates procrastination, resistance to change, stress, anxiety, and burnout. These feelings of powerlessness, frustration, and insecurity lead to low overall performance. Bottom line: whether on a personal or professional level, most people admit to not working—or living—at their full potential.

If you don’t learn to control your thoughts & emotions, they will control you!”

Nathalie's keynote LIGHT UP YOUR INNER FIRE is engaging, fun and provides mind blowing neuroscience in layman’s terms on how people use their brain wrong and proven strategies to make it work for you. Explore the impact of negative self-talk on your goals and gain practical strategies to overcome self-sabotage and transform your inner dialogue to unlock your full potential!

  • Brain Basics: Neuroscience and facts about the power of the brain to get you into a resourceful state when you are not at your best.
  • Logical vs unconscious mind: What part of the brain is responsible for people to sometimes do the reverse of what they should be doing.
  • How people use their brain wrong: Learn how the brain can work against you and keep you stuck.
  • What to do to make your brain work for you to reach your goals and be more performant.
  • A two-step technique to transform negative self-talk & limiting beliefs and start the process of rewiring your brain to get rid of what may be holding you back.
  • Start loving your life and your work again and get fired up, not despite of change but because of it. --

TURN OFF THE PANIC BUTTON: Strategies to Transform Stress, Overwhelm, Self-Sabotage & Negative Self-Talk to Thrive Under Pressure & Change +

In today's fast-paced business world, professionals face a multitude of challenges, making quick, high-stakes decisions. Change is constant. Highly experienced professionals that could do their job with their eyes closed are finding themselves in overwhelm mode. Struggling with uncertainty impacts their ability to learn new skills or adapt to change.

“This is so uncomfortable. I’ve never done that before. It’s never going to work.”

Stress and panic can impair performance and productivity, leading to disengagement, absenteeism and may even result in burnout, affecting both individuals and the company's bottom line. It’s not really people’s fault. The brain loves repetition and generalization. It is hardwired to resist change.

“The brain perceives change as a threat and generates pain comparable to when receiving a punch in the face.”

TURN OFF THE PANIC BUTTON provides insights into stress management, identifying avoidable worries, understanding stress's brain mechanisms, and employing coping strategies. Equipped with specific tools and strategies to focus thoughts and control emotional loops, the change experience is far less stressful. This new gained confidence allows to turn off the panic button and thrive under pressure.

  • How are emotions and stress created in your brain?
  • Learn how most of what we worry about can be avoided.
  • Discover four brain functions that can play tricks on you.
  • What is the purpose of powerful emotions?
  • How long should be an emotional loop and how to exit the loop when you get stuck?
  • Concrete strategies to create positive bio-chemical reactions in your brain.
