For example, you\u2019re struggling with your (mental) health, having a conflict with someone, or feeling dissatisfied with your work over a long period. You\u2019ve tried to find your way out of the rabbit\u2019s warren, but it seems like you\u2019re only getting more lost and stuck where you are. Uncertainty hits: can you find the right path to escape misery?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span>My experience shows that there are, honestly, many possibilities to turn destructiveness into constructiveness. However, in a tricky situation, getting from A to B requires a learning or change process. This process involves mastering behavioral changes and attitude shifts that help you get out of the predicament with as little damage as possible. It should truly lead to improvement. You can\u2019t just do something randomly. You\u2019ve probably already tried every quick fix, and they didn\u2019t help. You&#8217;re too much in misery. Therefore, a more refined and in-depth alignment is necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Why use emotional intelligence?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My name is Wendy van Mieghem. As a psychologist and sociologist, I have gained extensive experience and knowledge over the past decades on how to guide yourself (and if desired, others) through a change process in a sustainable and effective way. Especially when you seek optimal results, it is necessary to understand your humanity better and connect with it. Without doing so, that same humanity may hinder you from achieving your desired outcomes. That\u2019s why it is worth investing your time, attention, and energy into understanding yourself better. Who are you, and what do you need to feel satisfied in life with peace and balance? Your humanity guides you once you learn to work with it constructively. It\u2019s also important to know that pressure, haste, or coercion are completely counterproductive\u2014both in your behavior change and your interactions with others.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That said, there\u2019s a lot you can do yourself. You don\u2019t have to do it alone, either. Make use of my clear explanations, effective tools, and an experiential, proven strategy that guides you sustainably and effectively through the change. Change requires focused attention, time, and practice on your part. Once you&#8217;re willing to invest it regularly, it becomes possible to achieve the behavioral change you desire.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>How?

You have already developed various patterns in it, both consciously and unconsciously. The challenge lies in discovering what patterns you&#8217;ve developed up to now in dealing with emotions, thoughts, and actions, and whether they are destructive or constructive. The patterns that are constructive can stay, while the patterns that are destructive or lead to unwanted outcomes are the ones that invite you to develop healthier and more effective ways towards sustainable behavior change. It is crucial to eliminate the root causes of old destructive patterns and to care for them lovingly to facilitate recovery. This process occurs from the inside out. By doing so, you work towards lasting and constructive change that is both enduring and effective.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is very possible to alter your behavior sustainably, up to a certain degree. The hard part is that it requires focused attention and practice. If you don&#8217;t practice regularly, you will find that you make little or no progress on the bottlenecks, and sometimes the situation may worsen further.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;18px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;justified&#8221; text_font_size_tablet=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_font_size_phone=&#8221;14px&#8221; text_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; text_line_height_tablet=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; text_line_height_phone=&#8221;1.7em&#8221; text_line_height_last_edited=&#8221;off|phone&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Experience is the deepest way of learning and healing<\/h3>\n<p>The step-by-step plan I provide below, offers guidance and helps you navigate pitfalls, blind spots, and confusing moments.

It makes it easier to change your behavior and aim for sustainable results. The more trust you develop, the easier it becomes to offer a natural counterbalance to destructive patterns and habits in yourself and others. This allows you to make increasingly deliberate choices at every moment, prioritizing long-term well-being over short-term avoidance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you want to learn how to develop leadership skills in a healthy way, it is essential to start by building your inner balance. I created the online training <em>Inner Balance<\/em> specifically for this purpose. Without inner balance, it is unsafe to load yourself increasingly with the emotional burden that comes along with good leadership. The <em>Inner Balance<\/em> training has been used since 2012 and has gone through extensive testing and refinement. Every person who has completed the online training as intended has experienced deeper peace and balance within a few weeks!<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/wendyvanmieghem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Inner-balance-online-training-1.jpeg&#8221; alt=&#8221;Inner balance online training &#8211; Wendyvanmieghem.com&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Inner balance online training 1&#8243; url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;30%&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;18px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;justified&#8221; text_font_size_tablet=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_font_size_phone=&#8221;14px&#8221; text_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; text_line_height_tablet=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; text_line_height_phone=&#8221;1.7em&#8221; text_line_height_last_edited=&#8221;off|phone&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>Learning by doing<\/h3>\n<p>Participate in a 14-week online learning program called <em>Inner Balance<\/em>.
