Many of us may picture our career, athletic or weight loss goals in our minds’ eyes and imagine what it may be like to achieve them. However, we may not be so inclined to do this kind of work when it comes to love and relationships. Listen to today’s show to learn how functional imagery training can help you in all areas of your life, including your relationships.

In this episode with Joanna Grover we discuss relationship advice topics that include:

  • Understand how imagery shapes our behavior
  • Getting clear on who you are and who you want to be to help achieve your goals
  • Using mental cues to interrupt negative thought patterns
  • The importance of living a live in alignment with your core values
  • How to visualize the changes you want to make in your life so you’re up to 5x more likely to actually make those changes
  • How to tap into your body’s wisdom to help make better decisions
  • And much more!

Joanna Grover, LCSW, is an executive coach with nineteen years of experience as a cognitive behavioral therapist specializing in anxiety. She graduated with a B.A. in communications from Syracuse University and received her Master’s in social work from New York University. She first encountered FIT when it helped her recover from a horse-riding accident. After witnessing first-hand the effectiveness of this strategy in a client’s weight loss journey, she felt even more committed to the work. She subsequently became the first person in the US to be certified in FIT. Since 2019, Jo has used FIT mainly in an individual context, where she’s worked with top leaders at the US Department of Commerce, Olympic athletes, and C-suite executives at corporations such as Citi, IBM, and KPMG. She is a board-certified coach and member of the International Coaching Federation and the Harvard Institute of Coaching. Joanna lives in Miami, FL.
