FEATURED IN:

You’ve Cracked the Code of External Success.

Now It’s Time to Master the Inner Game.

You’re ambitious. Driven. Accomplished.

You've built the career. Grown the business. Collected the accolades. But late at night, a quiet voice asks: Is this it?

* Where’s the joy that lasts?
* Where’s the peace that isn’t shaken by chaos?
* Where’s the meaning behind everything you’re building?

If you’ve achieved conventional success but feel a deeper calling — a desire to grow, expand, and feel more alive and authentic — then Creativity & Personal Mastery is for you.

Jacqueline Fox, CPM Guide

Jacqueline Fox is a coach, facilitator, and program manager with The Rao Institute.  As a result of her own CPM training, and dedication to practicing the techniques she learned, Jacqueline has experienced significant shifts in her life. The most noticeable result is that anxiety and tension have pretty much disappeared, and she now retains a deep sense of inner joy and well-being.

Jacqueline holds a master’s degree in Adult Counseling and a master’s degree in Organization Development, as well as advanced training from the Gestalt Institute of Cleveland focused on working with individuals, groups, and organizations. She has worked as a management trainer, organizational consultant, and coach, primarily utilizing an appreciative inquiry approach to her work. She has experienced different cultures by living and working internationally for extended periods of time. This has enhanced Jacqueline's ability to appreciate and manage differences and rapidly adapt to changing circumstances. She brings this awareness and sensitivity to her work with individuals and groups. Her motto is helping people live empowered, joyful, fulfilled lives.

Jacqueline is a long time Vipassana meditator, a student of several spiritual masters, and an avid reader. She volunteers as a group facilitator with a local peace center and loves to dance with wild abandon in the privacy of her own home.

He is honored to work with individuals through The Rao Institute to as they walk on their path of transformation.
