What Is PQ Mental Fitness

Your Brain Has a
Saboteur Problem.
PQ Fixes It.

Positive Intelligence (PQ) is a neuroscience-backed mental fitness program developed by Shirzad Chamine, Stanford lecturer and bestselling author. It is not therapy. It is not meditation. It is a measurable, trackable shift in how your brain responds under pressure.

PQ training identifies the mental saboteurs , the Judge, the Controller, the Avoider , that hijack your thinking and undermine your leadership, your relationships, and your performance. Then it builds the mental muscles to intercept those patterns and respond from a place of clarity, calm, and purpose.

15 minutes a day. 6 weeks. Measurable results. The program is app-guided, self-paced, and designed to fit inside the life of a leader who has no time to spare.

"I am now able to separate my Saboteurs from myself. My judgment of a circumstance or person may be influenced by my Saboteurs and I can intercept them before they cause damage."

How It Works

Six Weeks.
Three Shifts.

01

Saboteur Assessment

Identify your specific mental saboteurs , the inner critics that undermine your performance without you realizing it.

02

Daily PQ Reps

15 minutes per day of app-guided practice that builds new neural pathways. Like physical fitness but for your mind.

03

Sage Activation

Develop the part of your brain that responds to challenges with curiosity and calm instead of judgment and anxiety.

04

Self-Command

Intercept saboteur patterns in real time , in the meeting, in the conflict, in the high-pressure moment.

05

Navigate Conflict

Apply PQ tools to real friction points in your leadership , difficult conversations, team misalignment, performance challenges.

06

Sustain the Growth

By Week 6 the new patterns are becoming automatic. App access continues for 6 months so transformation keeps compounding.

Who PQ Coaching Serves
