Mental Fitness voor Global Nomads

Inhoud

A very effective 12 weeks’ Mental Fitness program, easy to work with and to implement in your busy life.

The core of this program is designed by Shirzad Charmine, a C-suite coach, Stanford professor and Ted talk speaker. He combined years of research with hours and hours of coaching and client experiences.

One of the pillars of the program is the accountability set up in the form of small pods, which is a small support group who meet up weekly (videocalls) during the program. These groups are randomly formed yet you can also join as a group of your own should you wish. As team or family.

Programma outline

This 12 weeks program consist of two parts,

In the first 6-weeks you learn the operating system:

15 minutes of daily practice (supported by an app; so easy to apply);
a one-hour weekly video to watch (so 6 in total, divided in short parts fitting your schedule);
listening / reading 8 chapters of an audio book;
weekly support group calls with me as your personal coach during these 6 weeks.

After the first 6 weeks of weekly videocalls you have learned the operating system of mental fitness, the next 6 weeks will be about deepening the learning, repeating what was missed, adjusting what needs to be adjusted and most of all practice ourselves in creating the habits of ongoing mental fitness.

The program starts on a Saturday when the weekly videos become available in your app. You can watch these over the weekend, on Monday the support call is scheduled. Since this program is run through an app, you can listen and watch the videos at your convenience.
