WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
"A Powerful Framework"
Alexa provided a powerful framework for understanding how I interact with others and more importantly, how I understand myself. Her coaching was critical to the ability to implement PQ in my work and personal life. No exaggeration, the PQ Program helps you form new neural pathways. It will literally change your brain for the better. I highly recommend the program and her coaching.

"Is Incalculable to Me."
My major shift was postural. I feel more calm and unafraid in my advocacy work; I feel more deeply enchanted by and open to my visual art project. The value of this shift—and what I already see these new postures producing in my work—is incalculable to me.
Lisa Beth Anderson
EDITORIAL PHOTOGRAPHER, VISUAL STORYTELLER
The PQ Program helped me understand the simple power of words and gave me the confidence to do more. I still meet with my cohort.
We go deep. We have the ability to have serious conversations from a place of trust, love and connection. I’m going to be friends with these guys the rest of my life!

"The Shift Was Quite Radical"
I’m astonished to find that a daily practice of brief, grounding exercises can rewire your brain in a way that centers joy and curiosity. As a professional creative, the shift for me was quite radical—and began to show up in my work and in my collaborations immediately.

Clarity and Actionable Strategies
Alexa’s deep understanding of human behavior, combined with her compassionate yet direct approach, helped me gain clarity and develop actionable strategies. The tools she introduced allowed me to shift my mindset and approach conflicts with a new perspective, which had a profound impact on my leadership.

TRANSFORMATION
“A 2018 meta analysis of 25,000 people published in the Journal of Applied Psychology, found no relationship between actual performance and the perfectionism typical of overachievers. Constantly striving to be the best performer doesn’t make you the best performer.” Wall Street Journal
Most attempts at positive change fail because we stop at insight. Build sustained change and creative power by rewiring the brain.

About Alexa
LET'S WORK TOGETHER.
I believe great things are worth the risk. Being an entrepreneur will take you on the most courageous (and painful) journey. It doesn’t need to be done alone and it doesn't have to be so painful. I founded Collaboration Works because over the years of launching, growing and finding an exit for my own startup, I’ve learned a few important things and met so many talented people who are willing to go into the trenches. Now they’re your people, too. Join me.
