Marshall Goldsmith, long recognized as the World’s #1 Executive Coach, said:
“If you want to develop a growth mindset and you’re ready to use your own life as a laboratory, Mindset Mondays with DTK and the REWIRE Framework are your guide.”
Resisting the inertia of day-to-day life is a challenge for all of us. What I want for you is to take what you learn & discover, be it through my book or any other area of learning in your life, and use is to create change in your life. And that is exactly what the REWIRE Framework is designed to help you do!
REWIRE is an acronym for Reflect | Experiment | Write | Investigate | Revise | Expand. This framework is a structured yet playful approach enabling you to integrate and reinforce ANY new way of thinking, being, or doing — all in service of increasing cognitive flexibility and creating meaningful, lasting change.
Though it was originally designed to be used with my best-selling book, you can use the REWIRE Framework to deepen your connection with any material you’re exploring and to make that learning stick!
David Taylor-Klaus (DTK) is a speaker, author, and Master Certified Coach (MCC) whose mission is to guide successful entrepreneurs and senior executives as they unearth and unleash the power of the heart. THAT is their path to mastery … professionally and personally.
Since 2008, DTK has empowered his international tribe to take an active, intentional, and dynamic role in their development and create the kind of life-work integration that enables them to build & lead profitable businesses, raise thriving families, and live wildly fulfilling lives … and not in that order!
Prior to launching his coaching practice in 2008, David was co-founder and CEO of Digital Positions, an Internet Strategy and Web Development firm. As strategist at DP, he worked closely with C-level executives, senior management teams, and boards of directors coaching them through broader perspectives around how interactive initiatives support the corporate vision and values for positive growth.
DTK lives in Atlanta with his wife Elaine – a coach and international parenting expert – in their up-until-the-pandemic empty nest with an ever-shifting selection of their three children and two overwhelmed dogs.
Laurie Shiers is a writer and creative development coach who helps artists and entrepreneurs transform their best ideas into meaningful action. Once such example is this book: Mindset Mondays with DTK.
A Certified Professional Co-active™ Coach with a degree in human development, Laurie harbors a not-so-secret and nerdy passion for the creative process and all its quirks (see breakthroughblocks.co). Prior to launching her coaching practice, Laurie spent years as a copywriter in the advertising space where she honed her brainstorming superpowers — a skill she loves using with her coaching clients to spark unexpected ideas and inspire possibilities. Her collaborative approach draws on mindfulness, playfulness, and neuroscience to help people create with passion and purpose, to change their lives and the world.
Bex Taylor-Klaus
Something, something else, even more …
Bex is the eldest spawn of the author, and non-binary personality as seen on TV and various other screen options (imdb.me/bex). They don’t take themselves too seriously, and suggest you don’t either. Their advocacy, however, should definitely is taken very seriously. Bex uses social platforms and visibility to advocate for fundamental human rights, human decency, and human respect — oh, and mental health and animals. Bex and fellow artist Alicia are married as of Fall 2020, and have teamed up to create an Etsy account (etsy.com/shop/BAceCamp) to share their combined arts.
Bex loves to doodle and would do anything for family. So, here we are. Yay, nepotism!
Alicia Sixtos
Creator, Artist, Recovering Actor
Latinx, LA-based artist, Alicia has been an actor all of her adult life. Now she wants to scrap that career and find what truly makes her creativity dance. She’s been reflecting back on her childhood to find the things she loved before her creativity got tainted by adulthood. Visual art was always something she was naturally drawn to. Though she is still finding it difficult to fully reach a non-self-judgmental and free state of creativity, Alicia has amazing humans in her life who see her potential and encourage her to unleash the wildly creative beast raging insider her.
Also, she is the author’s daughter-in-law, as of Fall 2020 … Yay, nepotism v2!
