Mental Fitness & Resilience Experience
Have you ever...
→ Felt overwhelmed with balancing your career & personal life?
→ Tried to make everything just right and perfect before beginning?
→ Avoided difficult conversations for fear of creating chaos?
→ Judged yourself for past mistakes?
→ Doubted your capacity to overcome challenges?
→ Procrastinated on important tasks?
→ Overworked to prove your worth?
Perhaps you’re thinking, “That’s just how it is. I am who I am."
And you resign yourself to the stress, doubt, guilt, worry and all other negative emotions as you face these challenges.
I get it, I used to think this as well. And... it doesn’t have to be that way.
“The path of ease & flow is the path of the Sage, not the path of the Saboteurs.”

Introducing the
PQ® Mental Fitness & Resilience Experience!
An innovative method I’m authorized and trained to guide my clients through alongside Positive Intelligence® founder, Shirzad Chamine.
Hi, I'm Cynthia Gene, your Coach and Guide on this exciting transformational experience!
I have seen the ripple effect of this work's positive impacts in my own personal and professional life. Utilizing this program myself, I have conquered obstacles with courage and determination and have developed a deep commitment for overcoming negative self-talk. I am uniquely suited as your guide and thrilled to share these techniques with you! I want to help you find your strengths, empower you with self-confidence and equip you with simple, accessible tools to use when faced with daily challenges, both big and small. Together, we'll take you through the transformation that will bring fulfillment and open the door to new possibilities in your work, personal relationships, and your health and wellness.
How Do You Self-Sabotage?
What My Clients Say ...
Before I began Mental Fitness, I was experiencing bitterness, anger, burnout, lack of motivation, and shut down. I was struggling with relationship conflicts, self-worth and overwhelm. With Cynthia's encouragement and listening ear, I realized enough was enough! I had nothing to lose so I signed up for the program. I gained some very useful tools - explanation of the saboteurs and how they hijack, the powers of the sage to combat them along with the notion that perceived negative experiences do not have to have negative outcomes.
As a result, I am learning to slow down to weigh my thoughts and feelings when I feel an emotional reply quickly coming so my responses are balanced and non-judgmental.
I feel more peaceful about my relationships because I have tools to navigate uncomfortable encounters.
I feel less worried about making decisions because I can find a gift or opportunity within them, even though they did not turn out as originally planned.
Gloria N. — Washington, USA
There I was ... somewhere I never imagined I would be -- in the middle of a divorce with financial difficulties. I was feeling all kinds of stress, anxiety, mental fatigue, emotional swings, and was eating my worries.
Cynthia had shared with me her PQ journey over the past year so when she launched her first program I was the first to sign up! I really felt supported by the group coaching aspect along with the App Guidance.
Prior to PQ, if a financial situation arose it would have sent me reeling for days. Now I respond differently. I recognize the triggers & the emotions, do PQ gym time, talk back to my Judge to call out his lies, and pull myself back together in a few hours rather than several days.
It is great to see a big-time application of this system to be so tangible, productive and helpful.

What is Mental Fitness® & PQ®?
Mental Fitness is your capacity to respond to life’s challenges with a positive rather than a negative mindset –
and your ability to shift quickly & deeply from one to the other.
PQ® (Positive Intelligence Quotient) measures the relative strength of your positive mental muscles (Sage)
versus the negative mental muscles (Saboteur).
PQ® is the most widely used measure of mental fitness.
Independent researchers have validated this measure to be the greatest predictor of how happy you are,
and how well you perform against your potential.

Whatever it is, the way you tell your own story can make all the difference.
More than ever it's crucial to look after our mental fitness®.
Our habitual ways of thinking, feeling & reacting are ingrained in us. They start off as our guardians to help us survive the real and imagined threats to our physical and emotional survival in childhood. By the time we are adults, we no longer need them but they have become invisible habitants of our mind.
Our Saboteurs (aka negative inner dialogue) are soft-coded in our brain through neural pathways. When these neural pathways are triggered, we are "hijacked" by our Saboteurs and feel, think and act using their patterns.
If you’re intrigued and want to talk things over first, let’s chat!

FAQ
This is the right program for you if you are:
- ready to break free from self-imposed limitations that you are stuck in,
- willing to put in the initial effort to rewire years of mental habits that don't serve you,
- committed to improving your happiness, performance and effectiveness dramatically while reducing stress,
- looking for a science-based and trusted system to make it stick and last.
On the contrary! On vacation or in less busy/challenging times, you won’t see or learn to handle stress, urgencies and challenges in your life. Now is the perfect time to train your mental muscles.
Some people believe that negative emotions are helpful. For example, they think stress gives them their performance edge, or beating themselves or others up is helpful for continual improvement.
Feeling pain for a split second when your hand touches a hot stove is indeed useful, delivering an important alert. But your Saboteurs keep your hand on the hot stove, continuing to feel negative emotions which harm both performance and happiness.
In this program we learn to use negative emotions as a helpful alert, and then quickly shift to the positive region of the brain that has the calm, clarity, objectivity, and creativity to handle the challenge most effectively.
Meditation and mindfulness are specialized forms of doing PQ Reps. PQ Reps are innovative 10-sec exercises that are simple, accessible, can be done anywhere, anytime, with eyes open, and which you bring into any moment of your day.
You would never learn to ride a bicycle by reading a book about it, would you? You will be asked to read the first 8 chapters of the book while participating in the program. The book provides the research foundation and introduces the tools. The video session guides you through experiential exercises that help you personalize the tools to your own personality and needs. And the app coaches you to practice one tool at a time in the context of your own daily work and life challenges. The group coaching sessions help you unpack your weekly learnings to amplify your results.
You would be committing to:
- Weekly 1-hour Video Session viewed within the Positive Intelligence App, designed exclusively for this program
- Doing a combined total of 15 min. Daily Practice guided by the Positive Intelligence App
- Attending a Weekly 60 min. Coach-Led Group Session (via Zoom)
This may sound like a lot of time.
In fact, cumulatively, it constitutes about 2% of your awake time for the duration of the program.
Consider that your Saboteurs are costing you far more than 2% of your time, effort, energy, and productivity.
Consider how much more than 2% of time and productivity this twelve-week investment will save you for years to come!
