Applying emotional intelligence
to achieve peak performance in all we do.
When we increase our EQ, everyone wins.
Not only do we become more physically and psychologically sustainable, but we do so as we live out the best version of ourselves. And one of the most loving things we can do for those depending on us is to offer them the best version of ourselves. We become better leaders, better teammates, better colleagues, better spouses, better parents, better neighbors. We live from a place of power, a place of love (for ourselves and one another), and a place of effective decision-making.
We’ve helped hundreds of organizations and thousands of people over the past 5 years through speaking, in-person workshops, online resources, and one-on-one coaching. We remain dedicated to equipping as many educators and business leaders as we can.
And we can help you and your people. It’s time to take action: let’s shift ourselves and empower the people in the rooms we lead. It’s time to get EQuipped!

Author of the Award-Winning Book “The EQ Intervention”
Emotional intelligence in the classroom matters more now than ever. The EQ Intervention is the product of years of research and experience by licensed psychologist, substitute teacher, coach, and school district consultant Adam L. Saenz, who has worked for years within schools nationwide to improve the emotional health of both faculty and students. Here, he presents an accessible, deep-dive exploration into the critical value of practicing Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) skills in the classroom—for both students and faculty—to decrease student violence and aggression and to increase student academic performance and positive relational engagement.
Within these pages, Dr. Sáenz explores how he and his clinical and research teams developed the research-based assessment called the Educator Assessment of Social and Emotional Learning (EASEL). The EASEL provides valuable information about your personality style, your own SEL skills, and your vulnerability to stress. This tool is the backbone of Dr. Saenz’s work to increase emotionally intelligent leadership in districts, on campuses, and in classrooms.
