Feddi Donner Profile
Freddi had a very successful career (about 20 years) as a corporate marketing professional and business owner, and then, starting in 2004, as an executive coach, specializing in communication coaching. Communication styles can create and remove stress in the workplace. She teaches clients how to improve connections, and decrease misunderstanding by the way they talk. Through her coaching, health and wellness remains a constant theme with the understanding that one can not serve others well, if one can not care for self. So she invested in additional training and became a wellness coach, helping others discover the resources they have in themselves to live healthier lives through small daily choices.
Her interest in serving leaders and managers in high stress positions is no accident. Freddi herself had this responsibility and began to experience health problems related to the stress. As she began to explore solutions for mysterious pains, she discovered it was all related to stress; no other underlying causes existed. In her research around stress she found that most stress is self induced. Therefore, it can be mitigated with making different more deliberate choices. And through training, executives can reduce their own stress once they have new strategies to assist them.
Coaching gives a dignified, safe and convenient outlet for these professionals to learn how to best manage their only true resource: their body and mind. By serving executives and managers inhigh stress positions Freddi can help hundreds of highly specialized professionals to function better, reduce stress, perform more effectively and ultimately to retain their positions.
