How can you be an effective change agent? With "Guiding Mindful Change" founder, Billie Frances

Billie Frances, founder of Employee Wellness Coaching and Guiding Mindful Change, joins us to share how to be an effective change agent in your personal and professional life. Billie’s journey…Grounded in her experience as a licensed therapist, certified coach and a spiritual counselor, Billie’s vision was to create a network of Mindful Change Coaches who would positively impact the lives of thousands. That vision is realized with nearly 350 certified coaches nationwide. Billie is especially proud of the caliber of professionals who have completed the program and that evidence-based research has confirmed its value. Coaches establish private coaching practices or they employ mindful coaching skills professionally to enrich their connections with colleagues and teams. Since 2004, Employee Wellness Coaches have supported organizations from Fortune 100 companies to schools systems. On topics ranging from personal wellness to family engagement, coaches empower and encourage participants to discover their options, chart a course of action, receive accountability and enjoy results. Guiding Mindful Change and Employee Wellness Coaching maintain global headquarters in San Diego, California. Billie believes in sharing and giving-back and has served on professional boards, community fund-raising projects and spiritual outreach. Recently, Billie became a Certified Laughter Yoga Leader and conducts free community-based Laughter Yoga groups – nothing like a good belly laugh to promote well-being! On this show, Billie will share her valuable insights on: - How improving your ability to be self-aware empowers change for others - Ways to design a values-based life that fulfills you and serves others - How to elicit your client’s best ideas (and refrain from sharing yours) - How to be a coach and leader in the same conversation - Simple mindfulness exercises you can practice daily
