PROFESSOR OF EDUCATION, UNIVERSITY OF CENTRAL OKLAHOMA

I’m not the same person I was a year ago or even six months ago, not even close, everything has changed, both personally and professionally. It’s hard to put into words. It has completely changed my students’ lives too. I'm no longer overwhelmed with work and life; it is a joy to teach again.

EXECUTIVE COACH

I've taken many wonderful coaching courses, but Dr. Peet's Foundational Generative Body Course is a steak dinner and everything else is merely a small snack...The most transformative learning experience of my entire life.

COMMUNITY LEADER

She's helped me bring hidden resources to my role as a leader, and supported ways to reclaim the energy I've lost from trauma and oppression and wield it as a creative force. The impact of Dr. Peet's work is seismic.  It changes everything.

We help people discover and build upon their vast hidden sources of strength, intelligence, passion and purpose. 

Generative = Resources Creating

Since the processes of learning, change and regeneration happen within us unconsciously and automatically, most people don't know what they know, and have no idea the incredible resources they possess to successfully facilitate change. As a result, many people feel lost, confused and fragmented, not knowing where to go next. We help people discover and build upon the vast hidden reservoir of intelligence, strength, capacity and purposefulness they already have, but don’t know how to access.  It is truly a life changing experience.

What they say...

"Generative methods are the most potent tool for learning and transformation I’ve ever encountered. They do what nothing else can do - they help people transform their unconscious limiting beliefs by identifying their hidden purpose and superpowers through the use of evidence - hard core data - derived from their own life experiences. It is an extraordinary thing to witness, and an even better thing to experience first hand. We used these methods to increase retention by 40% in a first-generation students, something never even dreamed of before..."
