I recently participated in the Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program. My endeavor in the program was guided by my goal to become more focused and efficient. I realised that to achieve this, I first needed to shed some of my prior habits. Working with my coach, Michael Gidlewski, I was able to turn these aspirations into tangible progress swiftly. This has imbued me with a better sense of focus on creating long-term value and instilled in me the realization that every decision I make and every action I take has value. Along with this newfound understanding, I’ve also learnt to broaden my perspective and leverage my resources better. The program’s well-designed worksheets have been excellent helpers in this transformative journey. They serve not only as great reminders but also effective tools to build good habits. This program merits my highest recommendation. Anyone and everyone can greatly benefit from it, particularly those who may be struggling to find value in their daily lives. Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program is truly an irreplaceable journey of growth and development.

Re: Board of Directors’ Retreat Facilitation…
The Valuegenics science [neuro-axiology] and approach is outstanding. It set the stage for a Board meeting where we went deeper into Purpose and trusting teamwork than I ever thought possible. People brought their “A” game to the table and we are poised to execute with passion!

Starting with One Light Ahead, I felt lost. My business required a direct sales approach, and the struggle with the developing relationships required within this model was real. Building relationships that communicated care to clients was difficult for me. In the initial meeting, it was apparent Coach April could uncover the secrets I was looking for. My initial experience was enlightening. Being able to uncover habits that were holding me back was empowering. Through my coaching sessions, I was...
Starting with One Light Ahead, I felt lost. My business required a direct sales approach, and the struggle with the developing relationships required within this model was real. Building relationships that communicated care to clients was difficult for me. In the initial meeting, it was apparent Coach April could uncover the secrets I was looking for. My initial experience was enlightening. Being able to uncover habits that were holding me back was empowering. Through my coaching sessions, I was able to learn how to take corrective action that replaced my unproductive habits with efficient ones. I have seen a major shift in my focus away from a life that I found to be very stressful. As I accepted my past and the experiences I lived through. I am now experiencing a life that is more fulfilling and complete.

Going into this program, in order to achieve my goal of staying connected to the “why” behind what I do at work, remaining grateful for the impact my team and I can have on the lives of children and their families, and appreciating the opportunity I have been given to influence both the growth of our team members and the care we provide to our patients, I discovered that I needed to become less impulsive, reactive, and absent.

Going into this program, in order to achieve my goal of staying connected to the “why” behind what I do at work, remaining grateful for the impact my team and I can have on the lives of children and their families, and appreciating the opportunity I have been given to influence both the growth of our team members and the care we provide to our patients, I discovered that I needed to become less impulsive, reactive, and absent. Working with my coach, Jordan White, I was quickly able to become more deliberate, proactive, and present. As a result, recognizing my biases and my assets and learning how and when each show up was huge. It allows me to leverage my assets and minimize the impact of my biases. My favorite thing about the program is how the exercises really help put the principles into action. If I were to sum up my experience in this program, it would be “eye-opening, empowering, practical. I highly recommend this program for anyone who seems stuck and is ready to take their life to the next level. Jordan was a great coach and really helped me work with the material in this program.

The science of neuro-axiology, and the practice of Valuegenic Self-Leadership, could be a game-changer for OD practice on numerous levels. The neuro-axiological process goes beyond self-awareness, self-understanding, presencing, and radical acceptance, driving a proactive, purposive, and measurable personal transformation.

The Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program was a deeply transformative and personal experience. The small group of cohort participants created an environment that was both open and supportive, empowering me to be honest and fully engaged in my learning journey. This was a rare opportunity in my professional experience. Going into the program, my goal was to define a non-grading role in the DODC Cohort Program, focusing on performance and impact. I knew I needed to become more direct and confident, rather than self-effacing. Working with my coach, Peter Demarest, the program’s Central Question became integral to my practice, helping me avoid unproductive patterns. Embracing my biases and realizing that caring about and empowering others is a powerful strength significantly boosted my confidence and authenticity. Participating in this unique, diverse group led by Peter will be a memorable experience. I highly recommend this program to anyone curious about personal growth and supporting others in their development journey. The tools provided are invaluable, offering just a taste of life’s work that inspires a desire for more. Peter’s rare combination of expertise and humility makes this program exceptional. My aspiration is to further develop my axiology skills and actively contribute to this growing community.

“I am a 34-year-old software engineer in the public sector and an aspiring entrepreneur. I’ve played a key role in delivering highly impactful projects and have been recognized as a top achiever. But despite these accolades, my work left me feeling unfulfilled, stuck, and as though my career was plateauing. I craved a sense of purpose and a path to reach my true potential. This is where Jordan White, a friend turned coach, stepped in.
He introduced me to the Axiogenics program, promising a new perspective on how I approach myself, my choices, and my life. I was intrigued by his own transformation through the program, and I was ready for a change. My main objectives were to escape the rut I found myself in professionally & personally, gain more confidence, and explore the possibility of entrepreneurship.
The program pushed me to introspect, challenging me to think about how I was thinking, and dared me to step out of my comfort zone. The focus was not just on overcoming my biases but also on building a foundation of self-belief and self-love by using assets I already had.
Working closely with Jordan, I began to shift from being stuck in my head to becoming action-oriented. I started to recognize my negative thought patterns that were keeping me stuck. Through the program’s worksheets, I was able to delve deeper into my goals and how I was keeping myself from them, then how to start seeing a clearer path to achieving them.
My experience with the program has been enlightening. It has given me the tools to help me break free from my plateau and set me on a path toward a more fulfilling and engaging career with newfound potential. It’s been a journey of self-improvement. I would highly recommend this program to anyone who feels lost or stuck in their life or work and believes they can achieve more; you’ll learn that it’s within your reach.”

I discovered that I have real assets within me
This program taught me the power of asking the right questions — not just to myself, but with my team. We live in a world shaped by the stories we tell ourselves. They influence how we see reality, how we relate to others, and where we’re going. Through this program, I discovered that I have real assets within me — and that when we shift our mindset and rewrite our story, anything is possible.

My favorite part of the journey was working with Michael. He’s truly a man of God, and he has a rare gift for seeing the best in people — even when they can’t see it themselves.
I highly recommend this program to anyone who feels stuck or plateaued in life and is ready to grow, break through, and create something they never thought possible.

“…like going through metamorphosis.”
The Axiogenics Self-Leadership Process has helped me rewire my brain and begin forming valuegenic responses flowing from who I truly am at my core instead of living life in reactionary mode. As I took responsibility to move towards positive responses coming from my assets versus reacting from liabilities it had a major impact on my relationships, especially with my husband and children.

“…like going through metamorphosis.”
The Axiogenics Self-Leadership Process has helped me rewire my brain and begin forming valuegenic responses flowing from who I truly am at my core instead of living life in reactionary mode. As I took responsibility to move towards positive responses coming from my assets versus reacting from liabilities it had a major impact on my relationships, especially with my husband and children. Truly life changing! A lot like going through metamorphosis. Deep places in my soul began to heal as I realized I am truly a remarkable woman with so many positive assets I never knew I had! I absolutely loved the support of the program! Having Dr. Melodye help me understand things and how to apply the wisdom I was gathering throughout the course was incredibly helpful. The clarity and new perspectives I gained through the coaching part of the program continue to be invaluable. I love how simple and ongoing the shift is as I continue to show up for myself, learning, applying and growing through asking myself The Central Question.
I am the gal who has done all the programs under the sun. This program is so unique and set apart. I highly recommend it for anyone who is struggling to get past hang ups, triggers, and relationship issues. If you are ready to take 100% responsibility for yourself and your reactions and learn how to uncover and engage the assets that have always been a part of who you are but got buried under life happenings and circumstances this course is for you! I am so grateful I made this investment for myself, my family and other relationships! Learning to live life from the core of who I was designed to be will be a lifelong journey. The Axiogenics process has given me the tools I need to make it a good one! Not just for myself, but for all those around me.
