Life Coaching Goes To Work

Tess is bringing life coaching’s myriad intangible benefits – increased energy, engagement and focus; emphasis on personal responsibility/accountability; greater productivity and job satisfaction; innovative, out-of-the-box and solution-focused thinking; better communications and ease in relationships, as well as decreased stress, illness, conflict, overwhelm and frustration - into the workplace.  Benefits that have been shown in study after study to improve the bottom line as well.  Life, executive and OMD coaching can give busy individuals in today’s rapidly changing, stressful, competitive, demanding, uncertain workplace many tools to help them shine at work as well as at home, in complete health, happiness and harmony.  Coaching in companies also allows Tess to reach a greater number and broader spectrum of individuals, whose influence extends well beyond their immediate sphere, the movers and shakers who shape our culture, economy and the international community.  A win-win for employer, employee, and well beyond.

Tess is pleased to begin partnering with renowned NYC plastic surgeon Dr. Robert Tornambe, author of "The Beauty Quotient" (http://thebeautyquotient.com/) and frequent contributor to Oprah.com and The Huffington Post, on a joint mission to help individuals better appreciate their appearance, boost their confidence, enhance their looks, and live their best life.


Dr. Bob and Tess are designing holistic beauty and wellness packages, including empowerment coaching, nutritional counseling, fitness training, wardrobe consulting, and hair and make-up advice intended to help people look and feel their best, both inside and out.

Ageless Beauty, Timeless Power


Theresa and Darlene Troiano are currently developing an exciting and original seminar series for women "d'un certain age".  Together we

  • explore the many reasons why we don't feel confident and beautiful, especially after a certain age
  • tear down the pervasive thinking about a woman's worth, and how aging affects that already-reductive mindset
  • write a truer, more timely (and timeless) definition of beauty, based on our uniqueness rather than our ability to conform
  • meet with our nagging inner critics and “frienemies”, then recruit them to work with rather than against us
  • toss out age-old archetypes and language that hold us prisoner in archaic thinking, and create our own new heroines
  • find a newer, truer, more meaningful focus for our energies and attention, based on our deeply-held values and talents

Energy Leadership

Are you leading the life you want to live?  Or is life leading you?

Are you attracting the things you want into your life?  Or is something getting in the way?

Where are you focusing your attention and your energy?  How might it be working for or against you?


Every one of us is a leader.  Despite our tendency to shift blame to someone or something outside of ourselves, beyond our control, every one of us is ultimately responsible for his or her choices, the life he or she co-designs, and the impact he or she makes in the world.  How we view things and respond to life's challenges largely determine not only our own health and happiness, it ripples out into the community, affecting our family, our work, everything and everyone with whom we come in contact.  That's how powerful we are.


The Energy Leadership Index, a cutting-edge attitudinal assessment, enables us to hold up a mirror to our perceptions, beliefs, thoughts, attitudes and behaviors, and see how they may be helping or hindering us in creating the life we’d like to live.  The 70-question assessment shows quantitatively:


  • the way in which you perceive and approach life, and how your thoughts produce emotional and behavioral reactions to different circumstances and experiences.

  • how different energies - both positive/constructive (anabolic) and negative/destructive (catabolic) - generated by core beliefs, thoughts, perceptions and values, show up in your professional and personal life, and how it may be working for or against you.

  • where and how your thinking and/or your choices might be creating stress, resistance and blocks, and getting in the way of success and happiness.

  • your level of engagement, or how emotionally and mentally involved you are in what you’re doing and who you’re with.  (For example:  Do you take action because you want to?  Or do you feel you need to, or have to?  Or do you tend to take no action at all?

  • your level of self-awareness, or consciousness of who you truly are, as opposed to who you think and act like you are, as evidenced by your “default tendencies” – unresourceful thoughts, limiting beliefs, reactions and behavior patterns  - and the true core values and belief systems driving your decisions and actions.

  • your “vibe,” or the impression you make on others, and the kind of people/situations you tend to attract/repel as a result.

    An illuminating, eye-opening tool for anyone seeking greater self-awareness, more energy, engagement and passion, a higher level of self-mastery, and more ease, happiness and satisfaction in life.  Call for information about special coaching packages utilizing this powerful and unique assessment.
