About The Adult Chair
The Adult Chair® operates as my compass, as it guides my everyday life from sunup until sundown.
It helps me to understand which Chair I am seated in throughout the day.
The Adult Chair
Am I sitting in my Adolescent Chair, where I am navigating the world with the emotional intelligence of a 12-year-old? Or am I seated in my Adult Chair, where I am living in my healthiest, most authentic self?
The Adult Chair model guides me to check in with myself and helps me feel grounded so I can show up as my best version of myself by rising up and not being afraid to be bold.
At the time that I came across The Adult Chair podcast, my internal life was falling apart. After listening to the first three podcasts, I was hooked. I then became part of the monthly membership and learned even more. Two years later, I decided to become a Certified Adult Chair® Coach and make a difference in the lives of women who want to feel empowered, gain greater self-awareness, and live a healthy life with joy, passion, and purpose.
Through The Adult Chair model, I empower you by teaching you skills to help you understand how to transform your behaviors and start living the AMAZING life that you are destined to live and enjoy!
The Adult Chair Model
The Adult Chair is a manual for your life. It’s a tool that helps you feel empowered, confident, and equipped with a clear roadmap to your healthiest, most authentic self. Through The Adult Chair, you will understand how your life experiences have shaped you, give a voice to the different parts of who you are, gain greater self-awareness, and respond to life in a healthy way.
The Child Chair
Your inner child forms between ages zero and seven, and it is the foundation of your true feelings and needs. The inner child is deeply vulnerable, which makes it the source of deep, connected relationships. It is also where early wounding can occur, which shapes our view of the world as we grow up. When seated in the Child Chair, we find creativity, passion, spontaneity, trust, and intimacy.
The Adolescent Chair
In adolescence, you begin to develop your own identity and realize that you are separate and unique from the world around you. As the ego forms, so does the desire to protect yourself, whether the daggers are real or imagined. When seated in the Adolescent Chair, we become perfectionist, judgmental, and controlling, and we develop a mask to hide our authentic selves from a world that seems cold and rejecting. Most of us live from this place until we awake and decide we are ready to change.
The Adult Chair
The Adult Chair represents your highest self: living in the present moment, dealing with facts and truth over stories and assumptions, and being able to set boundaries from a place of patience and compassion. While seated in the Adult Chair, we can deeply connect with our inner child’s needs and feelings and objectively observe our adolescent’s behaviors. It is here, and only here, that we can become aware of—and overcome—the emotional triggers and negative patterns that hold us back.
