What do romance novels and personal development have in common?

“We’ll call you an enlightened man because you’re taking the time to know and love yourself.”

So I have a secret, well perhaps it’s not really a secret, but as much as I love to read almost anything and everything, my truly guilty pleasure is reading romance novels.

Now I know right here by admitting it out loud, in writing, I’ve lost a few of you 🤣

But hear me out!  I’m not a writer, but I do know from some of my writing friends that good romance novels follow a formula, and the really good writers get you into the hearts and minds of the characters; so you truly feel what they feel and think as they think, as they traverse the complex web of human relationships.

The way I see it, is for a really good writer to do this, s/he must have as good an understanding of human psychology as the majority of personal development gurus out there!

So, what do romance novels and personal development have in common?  A deep understanding of the human psyche.

Something that has and continues to fascinate me each and every day.

In my coaching business, I spend a good amount of time with people either one-on-one or in small groups delving into all areas of their career, health, relationships and overall lives, with a particular focus on the levers that we know move the needle in terms of performance i.e. Clarity, Energy, Courage, Productivity, Influence.

And each journey is always different!  Because each individual (and team) have their particular perspective which allows me to help them tailor what works for them to take their career, health, relationships, and overall life to the next level that they are uniquely looking for.

Whether it’s a new job, a better relationship, or a stronger level of confidence, my greatest feeling of joy and satisfaction is seeing others really achieve their goals.  And I am blessed with yet a deeper understanding of the human psyche.
