Elaine Froese hates it when people say “she must be busy.” As a certified coach from the Hudson Institute of Santa Barbara, Elaine has amazing strategies for mapping out a great way to live intentionally and make conscious choices.
She removed “all hurriedness from her life” after a serious bout of post-partum depression. Her empathy for mental health is widely appreciated by her audiences as she confronts the true challenge of self care which is not selfish. As a depression survivor, she places a high priority on staying healthy.
Elaine has been writing and speaking about balanced living in a complex world since 1987. She knows it is never a quick fix project, but an ongoing process of choosing what is most important to you in the present season of your life.
Your method of presentation was very well done as visual aids are always so much easier to follow. Your request to write down our own questions and answers challenged us to do some deeper thinking. We found your uniqueness was represented in the fact that you were able to share situations about yourself that proved that you were coming from a place that lots of us have been. Your “humanness” shone through and we could associate with you not being just a guest speaker, but one of us as well.
