Lisa Manzo Relaunches The Phoenix Mind to Deliver Emotional Intelligence and Trauma-Informed Coaching
Lisa Manzo, Founder of The Phoenix Mind The Phoenix Mind, founded by Emotional Intelligence expert Lisa Manzo, has relaunched to provide trauma-informed coaching and emotional intelligence training for corporate, healthcare, and educational leaders. With research highlighting emotional intelligence as a critical leadership competency, The Phoenix Mind delivers practical, science-backed training designed to help professionals develop self-awareness, regulate emotional triggers, and foster resilient teams. Las Vegas, NV - March 17th, 2025 - Emotional intelligence (EI) is no longer a soft skill—it's a critical leadership competency driving team performance, organizational health, and employee retention. Recognizing this urgent need, Lisa Manzo, a Licensed Practical Nurse, educator with a Master's Degree in Education, and certified NLP Master Practitioner, has officially relaunched The Phoenix Mind. This specialized coaching and training platform helps leaders, educators, healthcare professionals, and high-performers develop emotional intelligence using a science-backed, trauma-informed approach designed for real-world leadership challenges. Emotional Intelligence: A Critical Leadership Skill Research from Harvard Business School Online confirms that 71% of employers now prioritize emotional intelligence over IQ when evaluating candidates. Leaders who understand their own emotions—and those of their teams—make better decisions, foster healthier cultures, and reduce costly turnover. In healthcare, the impact of EI is even clearer. A systematic review published in PubMed Central found that emotionally intelligent healthcare leaders experience higher job satisfaction, reduced burnout, and improved teamwork—essential in high-pressure medical environments. The link between EI and employee retention also stands out. A study from Initiative One found that employees are 400% less likely to leave jobs when they work under leaders with strong emotional intelligence. When leaders practice self-awareness, regulate emotional triggers, and communicate with empathy, team loyalty and performance improve significantly. Further evidence from PubMed Central confirms that emotionally intelligent leaders consistently outperform peers in both behavior and business outcomes across sectors. And crucially, emotional intelligence isn't innate—it can be developed through proper training. Research published by Frontiers in Public Health shows that targeted EI training programs enhance leadership qualities and stress management skills, particularly in demanding fields like healthcare. The Phoenix Mind: Combining Emotional Intelligence and Trauma-Informed Coaching What makes The Phoenix Mind different is its deep understanding of trauma—how it shapes communication, decision-making, and leadership behaviors. Lisa Manzo's multi-disciplinary background in healthcare, education, and neuroscience-based mindset coaching allows her to address the subconscious patterns and emotional blind spots that most leadership programs overlook. Leaders are often unaware of how unresolved personal experiences and emotional triggers influence their workplace communication and decisions. The Phoenix Mind helps leaders recognize those patterns, regulate their responses, and build healthier, high-performing teams through a combination of emotional intelligence development, practical coaching, and NLP-based mindset work. As Jack Welch, former CEO of General Electric, famously said: 'No doubt emotional intelligence is rarer than book smarts, but my experience says it is actually more important in the making of a leader. You just can't ignore it.' That truth is at the core of Lisa's work at The Phoenix Mind, empowering leaders to master their emotions, foster resilience, and create psychologically safe cultures where innovation, collaboration, and authentic leadership thrive. About Lisa Manzo & The Phoenix Mind Lisa Manzo is a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), educator with a Master's Degree in Education, and certified NLP Master Practitioner with decades of experience helping individuals and organizations build emotionally intelligent leadership. Her work spans healthcare, education, corporate training, and personal development, giving her a 360-degree view of the challenges today's professionals face.

3 Ways Your Wealth Is Being Stolen, According to Robert Kiyosaki and Jared Teach
You probably expect your investments to be put to work — for you. However, that might not always be the case. Explore More: Read Next: During a January episode of the 'Rich Dad Radio Show' titled 'Your Wealth is Being Stolen — Here's How,' Robert Kiyosaki and Jared Teach explained why they believe your investments might not be as lucrative as you imagine. Being informed is the best way to protect your assets, so you might be interested in what they have to say. Here are three ways Kiyosaki and Teach believe your wealth is being stolen. When you invest your money with a company, you may think your best interests are prioritized, but Kiyosaki and Teach said that isn't always the case. Teach explained the concepts of shareholder and stakeholder capitalism. He said a corporation's job is to return as much capital as possible to its shareholders, but it also has to consider everyone who touches the company as a stakeholder). He noted the U.S. has fiduciary laws that require companies to return as much money as possible to shareholders and do what's best for them, since they are its legal owners. In total, companies have four fiduciary duties to investors, according to Harvard Business School Online. This includes the duty of obedience, duty of information, duty of loyalty and duty of care. Currently, Teach doesn't believe shareholders' interests are being put first. He told Kiyosaki that there needs to be a return to shareholder capitalistic values, which would require a push away from environmental, social and governance standards (ESG) and diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. 'Everyone wants equality, everyone wants a better earth for their children,' Teach said. But at the same time, it has been hijacked as a Trojan horse for a lot of social political events that are harming companies. Kiyosaki agreed with this sentiment. Robert Kiyosaki: 'It's like if I'm an investor in a company, I'm being ripped off by the fund managers and things I don't [know] is beyond me,' Teach said. He said that asset managers are taking shareholders' retirement money and pushing their agendas in the boardroom, he explained, explaining that SEC changes made after the Enron scandal in 2001 require people who invest with an asset manager to forfeit their proxy vote to the asset manager. It's worth noting that some investors who work with an asset manager do have the ability to cast their own proxy votes, according to the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association. A decade ago, Teach said less than 1% of C-suite executives and board members had a portion of their compensation tied to goals relating to ESG, DEI and social political agendas. However, he said 75% of these executives are now required to meet goals of this nature to collect their bonuses. 'They went woke on us,' Kiyosaki said. 'And as they say, you go woke, you go broke.' He then concluded that woke capitalism has taken over America.
