Darcy is absolutely amazing! I’ve had the pleasure of working closely with Darcy and her team for the past four years to do corporate training with her Thoughtfully Fit program. It was a hit!

Employees enjoyed the four-part series which helped them increase emotional intelligence, improve workplace communication, raise self-awareness (and system/team awareness), and deal with conflict in a healthy way. The tools she teaches throughout the program can be used immediately in the work setting!

I’ve learned valuable tools to become emotionally intelligent! The critical Thoughtfully Fit core of Pause/Think/Act has changed the way I interact with colleagues and family which has made a significant impact on the conversation.

In addition, understanding how to have a balanced conversation is critical in choosing how to interact in a positive way that promotes healthy relationships.
