The Five Emotions That Stop Success in Coaches, Clients, and Creatives

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"I've had the pleasure to witness Rahti explore 'meaning' in her life both professionally and personally. This book will share her experiences and inspire other 'creatives' to discover how to avoid their own emotional roadblocks and free themselves towards creative growth and success."

JoAnna Beckson, acting/director/coach and former adjunct professor at NYU Tisch Graduate Film School

"With wisdom, verve, and humor, Rahti shows us how we get stuck -- and how we can use this knowledge to free ourselves. Filled with relatable case studies and a wide range of references -- from experts in the field to Brene Brown, Jung, Pema Chodron, and Oscar Wilde, to name just a few -- the book is as fascinating as it is helpful. Gorfien knows what she's talking about, and with a firm and loving grip she leads us out of overwhelm and into more productive lives."

Sharon Guskin, author of The Forgetting Time

"In The Five Emotions that Stop Success in Coaches, Clients, and Creatives, Rahti Gorfien offers sage guidance in overcoming five emotional obstacles that can impede our creative efforts. She expertly applies psychodynamic theories to coaching practices for clients and coaches alike to find new ways to move forward when the going gets tough. She also offers strategic advice on how to become a 'creative activist' to overcome the social and cultural forces that can keep us down. This book is a must read for anyone wanting to find or strengthen their productive creativity."

Arthur Pomponio, psychoanalyst

"What a refreshing book - insightful, illuminating and fun to read. The five emotions allowed me to see where I was blocked and move forward so much faster. This is mandatory reading."
