Question: Who is the intended audience?
Answer: The book is written exclusively for moms.

Q: What is the book about?
A: After almost 20 years of working exclusively with moms, I noticed that their challenges fell within one of six categories (nutrition, fitness, emotional, stress control, relationships, spirituality). Those categories gave birth to the Lifestyle Fitness Program where each mom works on a specific plan designed to overcome her unique challenges in the areas of nutrition, fitness or wellness. When mom works on areas where her greatest obstacles are, she can slowly chip away at what’s preventing her from feeling, looking and living her best. She becomes empowered and inspired as confidence and self esteem grows.

Studies found that moms need certain criteria for success; small, manageable goals, support from other moms and a positive role model they can relate to. The book is designed to give mom everything to ensure success. The mom chooses which program to work on depending on her unique obstacles (whether it’s in the areas of fitness, nutrition, stress control, etc.). She reads a short chapter within that program on a topic she feels needs work. She then enters one of six message boards corresponding with the book to find support/camaraderie with moms working on the same obstacles. After a week of incorporating her new mini goal into her lifestyle along with getting the necessary support from other moms, she emails me for accountability, validation and acknowledgment. It’s what makes private coaching so successful and now any mom can enjoy that same luxury.

Q: Why are you the best person to write this book?
A: I’m a Registered Dietitian with a Masters in Nutrition and have specialty recognition in areas of weight loss and weight maintenance. I’m a certified Personal Trainer and hold two certifications in pre/post natal fitness and nutrition. I’m a Whole Health Coach-a life coach with a health background, trained to understand how your lifestyle creates health and wellness or illness and disease. Besides my credentials and experience in working with moms for nearly 20 years, I’m a mom of 4 who’s managed to find the balance between motherhood and womanhood. I’ve also been branded “The Mojo Coach” because once moms began working on their lifestyle issues (emotions, stress control, relationships and spirituality) in addition to their fitness and nutrition, moms began to feel fit, healthy and happy in all areas of their life. They began to “get their mojo back” and started calling me “The Mojo Coach”.

Q: How is this book different from other books on this topic?
A: There are many books which give great ideas, advice and suggestions. This book assumes that mom is the expert, not the author. I may have information but mom knows where her greatest obstacles are. That’s why she doesn’t start from beginning to end, following along with a plan I construct. The book is designed to be as unique and individual as she is. Some moms need to start with nutrition, others with emotions, others with fitness, etc. It’s a way for mom to take back the controls and prevents her from handing over her power to yet another “expert” which keeps her powerless and filled with self doubt.

There also is no other book which encourages such interaction from reader to reader and with the author herself. If the mom is willing to do the work, I’m willing to encourage, reward and validate her efforts along the way as a way to keep her motivated and on track.

Q: Is there anything else we should know about this book?
A: Two other parts of the book make it unique. One is my charity program and one is a Pay it Forward Program. Each month, 50% of any profit I make goes to charity. I choose a “Mom of the Month” or “M.O.M” who’s made the most significant lifestyle changes (for her). Besides recognition in my monthly newsletter, the M.O.M. has an additional reward of deciding to which charity my monthly profits go. All moms reading the book and using the message boards are eligible for the monthly reward. The charity program is a useful tool showing mom the global impact of her efforts along with being a great way to show her children the positive role model she’s becoming.

The Pay it Forward Program is at the end of the book. Once mom has completed the program, she feels happier, more satisfied, more enriched, empowered, confident and strong. She’s ready to “pay it forward” because she’s so much more complete and has so much more to give. She’s feeling the effects of her growth and willingly wants to share that feeling with others. She also realizes that through her own growth and development she can have a positive reaction and impact on those she chooses to touch.

We’ve given workshops, seminars, sessions, and one-on-one programs to people in every facet of life, from educational leadership to men and women entering new career pathways. The term “coach” might be new to some, but we’ve been studying and testing various coaching styles and techniques for more than 30 cumulative years around the world. Coaching is a set of tools that we’ve used and trained thousands of people to help them accomplish their goals. People often find that the tools provided can be applied to their lives at home with their families, communities and on the soccer field. Our myriad of experience and the case histories that we provide in the book put the meat and potatoes to the concept called coaching.

The humor is appreciated by all audiences because the published cartoons were selected the best by people from all walks of life from hundreds of cartoons.

Q: What is the book about?
A: This first series of its kind, this bestselling series contains riotous, original cartoons “goosing” the world’s fastest growing new industry: Coaching. Each 40-page book displays numerous coaching principles with corresponding entertaining cartoons. These hilarious books are written and illustrated by Germaine Porché & Jed Niederer, co-authors of Coach Anyone About Anything: How to Help People Succeed in Business & Life, listed among Amazon’s Best 100 Business Books of 2003. This valuable new book series is funny, wise, tough and loving — all at the same time.

Q: Why are you the best person to write this book?
A: Germaine Porché and Jed Niederer, management consultants for 19 and 25 years, share a long history of coaching executives, managers, entrepreneurs and teams to accelerate business performance. Despite their serious work, they can’t help but see the lighter side of the coaching industry. The cartoons were all inspired by actual events. “I sketched many of them as they happened”, explains Niederer, the “wrist” or artist of the cartooning duo. Germaine recalls, “One project team actually voted 5 to 4 on whether to send an injured team member a ‘get well’ card! Occurrences like that are just too funny not to capture and share.”

Q: How is this book different from other books on this topic?
A: Coaching Soup for the Cartoon Soul is the only book of its kind, combining valuable information with the humorous side of coaching, to help readers grasp important principles faster and retain them longer. There are no other cartoon humor books available today about business and life coaching other than Coaching Soup for the Cartoon Soul.

Q: Is there anything else we should know about this book?
A: If you desire to create or promote a culture of coaching inside your firm, you will want to take advantage of this unique book to spread the word in a delightful and non-threatening way. Coaching Soup for the Cartoon Soul is an information rich and intentionally quirky ‘inside look’ at the coaching profession. The coaching profession is one of the “hottest” new professions in the world today. Coaching is facilitating a person in their own commitment and enthusiasm to accomplish their objectives. The kinds of people interested in being coached are people committed to accelerating their performance in everything imaginable from business results to personal goals and achievements. Clients of coaches will love seeing a lighter side of their coach’s world. And certainly everyone can benefit from learning the principles of effective coaching. Opportunities for coaching others lay all around you – friends, colleagues, family members, and business associates – just to name a few.

Question: Who is the intended audience?
Answer: I wrote this book with a focus on the following audiences:

Those who are doing well and want more from life.

Those who have heard about NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) and want to learn more.

Parents, coaches, members of the helping professions or managers who are looking for new ways and techniques to feel good about themselves, accomplish what they desire and to assist others to do so as well.

Those who are about to take an NLP seminar and would like to have a solid grounding before beginning.

Those who have studied NLP and are looking for a basic NLP reference book.

Q: What is the book about?
A: The core of the book is an introduction to NLP, but it is much more than that. In the book, I speak to you from different perspectives as the situation warrants:

As a coach to assist you to open up your thinking about yourself and the world around you.
As a guide to assist you in getting a sense of what NLP is and isn’t.
As a trainer to assist you in understanding and using NLP techniques.
As a source of knowledge so that you have access to a broad range of NLP tips and techniques.
As a friend who has and continues to benefit from using NLP.

Throughout the book, I share my life experiences with you and ask questions of you so that you too can explore new possibilities in your life or in assisting others. You are provided with sufficient information and questions for you to explore the question “What if I used this in my life or in interactions with others?”

Q: Why are you the best person to write this book?
A: My original background – Undergraduate degrees in the pure sciences, PhD (Statistics), Informatics Professional, Certified Management Consultant – at first glance does not make me an obvious candidate to write this book. However, I have been on a personal journey of discovery of ‘who am I’ for over 20 years. During this period I have studied many different personal development methodologies, have transformed my own life and have helped many others to do so as well. I have been a certified NLP trainer and coach since 1996.

Q: How is this book different from other books on this topic?
A: I start with the comments of a book reviewer at Amazon.com (I have never had any contact with this person):

“Ellerton is Brilliant, Concise, Precise, Lucid, and Comprehensive. This is an in-depth explanation of, journey through, and discovery of NLP in its most clear and most comprehensively engaging representation. By far the most comprehensive and thorough and easy-to-understand book on NLP. I’m still reading it (plan to read it cover to cover) and will constantly use it for reference.”

For the most part, the material is presented as if you were in a training session with me. That is, I address the four major learning styles: Why? (discussion), What? (teaching), How? (coaching) and What if? (self-discovery). For those who learn best by discussing the reasons why you would use NLP, I often present the material in a discussion format and ask questions of you to stimulate your thinking. Each aspect of NLP and the tips and techniques are presented in enough detail to satisfy those who prefer to explore the question “What is NLP?” The basic concepts and techniques of NLP are described in sufficient detail for you know how to apply them in your own life or with others.

Q: Is there anything else we should know about this book?
A: Live Your Dreams Let Reality Catch Up is available from all online stores such as Amazon.com and chapters.ca. If it is not on the shelf of your favorite bookstore, it can easily be ordered by them.

Question: Who is the intended audience?
Answer: Coaches, trainers, leaders, mental health practitioners and spirtiual/religious gurus–anyone interested in changing human behavior sustainably in some “enlightened” or evolved way.

Q: What is the book about?
A: It is a self-help book about the self-help industry—how to navigate through the half-truths of change and success that riddle this industry and leave people not knowing the difference between what makes sense and what is true. Nowhere before in human history has knowing the difference between what is seemingly important and essential been so crucial.

Q: Why are you the best person to write this book?
A: I am a Renaissance man—neuropsychologist, performance coach, systems thinker, philosopher of science—and have studied how we know what we know and how critical the “meta” level of understanding and the brain is on any game plan for success. No Tony Robbins coach or motivational speaker does this…

Q: How is this book different from other books on this topic?
A: It is not about the “goals”, plans, visions, etc for success…it is about the unlearnings of our illusions that make us FEEL as if we know how to get there…there is too much information for the sake of information being given and no concentration on reality.

Q: Is there anything else we should know about this book?
A: It features a Foreword by NY Times bestselling author Tom Morris (If Aristotle Ran General Motors) and has received much praise and endorsements by bestselling authors and gurus:

Answer:
- Business Leaders (Manager to Executive Level)
- Human Resources Professionals
- Professional Leadership Coaches

Q: What is the book about?
A: Coaching has been shown to be an effective way to grow organizations, maximize resources and outputs, and build a vibrant, engaged workforce.

Unleashed! presents readers with a straight forward coaching model which is based the techniques used by professional executive coaches, and provides and effective means of incorporating high performance coaching into your organization’s culture.

Q: Why are you the best person to write this book?
A: I have extensive experience as both an internal HR professional and an external leadership coach. This has given me valuable insight into the practices of professional coaches, and how organizations can deploy these internally to develop a culture of high performance.

Q: How is this book different from other books on this topic?
A: Unlike so many coaching books on the market today, Unleashed! does not provide you with a step by step guide to “doing” coaching. Rather, it outlines the best processes and practices of professional executive coaches in a simple, straight forward model which can easily be implemented in your organization.
