Personal Transformation
An immersion in core purpose and values.
Music lends itself to transparent personal sharing like no other activity. And no other art form can impact and connect us as quickly. The many styles elevate and frame our longings and fears, our joys and our passions. Given it’s rich, evocative nature, our innermost thoughts and feelings are welcomed and ennobled.
In this program for seasoned professionals we cultivate profound trust and courage where each of us can risk finding the hidden beauty and authentic leadership that lies beneath our personality constructs, emotional armor, and self-limiting beliefs. In a safe and uplifting environment, we give voice to the inner narratives that free the soul.
“Claude expresses subtle skills of coaching, helping each participant stretch without breaking and turning each individual coaching session into group learning. He has tremendous empathy and respect. This is about daring to be vulnerable in order to lead more powerfully.”
-Joanna Barsh

Persuasive Advocacy
Be the Voice for Justice that everyone listens to.
In voir dire, openings, cross, or closings, our training corrects poor vocal habits and eliminate the false, scripted presentational style that so many attorneys fall into. To improve client outcomes we learn to connect in an agile, organic “flow” state with an unspoken subtext of justice and common values. It is this awakening of our core inner narratives that informs our vocal nuances and conveys trust and empathy. This alignment with our most authentic intentions – to the exclusion of fear-based stylizing – evokes an empowered sense of right and wrong in jurors and lifts our calling to the highest level.
