Fred Horowitz Quick Facts
Main Areas: Midlife coping strategiesCareer Focus: Executive coach
With my partner, Dr. Frank Bonkowski, we have developed an information products-based website that offers a new paradigm of aging based on what's referred to as the Rising Energy model that includes revitalization, regeneration, rebirth and renewal. We particularly address midlife coping strategies and resilience as they relate to the issues of aging, retirement, meaning, purpose, elderhood, accomplishment, death, happiness and peace.
As an executive coach, I work with Third Age (45 to 75 years of age) business owners, who aren't clear what direction to take with their business and personal life. They are dealing with seperating themselves from their business so that it runs systematically and independently. What keeps them stuck is the fear of the unknown, the fear of nothingness and fear of losing their identity.
My background includes practicing dentistry for 10 years and retiring from the profession because of corneal transplants. I've gone through 5 career transitions- career consultant; created a business, The Wellness Project, which supported individuals and organizations on integrating a wellness lifestyle; on staff for 3 years with Werner Erhard and Associates (the predecessor of Landmark Education); regional vice-president with Primerica Financial Services: with 2 partners developed a business, Ayurvedic Technologies and developed a strategic alliance with Deepak Chopra; while I have been coaching for over 25 years, I graduated from Coach University in 1997.
In 1996, I introduced BNI (Business Network International) to the Montreal community and shortly after became a director.
I'm passionate about running and have a strong interest in personal development using a transformational, integral and ontological framework. I practice Buddhist meditation, yoga and the Alexander Technique.
