The Confidence Toolkit helps me to practice the five mantras for myself, rather than just passively listening to them. Thinking, writing about, and reflecting on the mantras throughout the week is like having a coach by my side helping me to do my daily reps. It's a quick read, and easy to implement. I'm only partway through my week of exercises, and I've already had several aha moments!

The Five Mantras of Highly Confident Professionals was a tremendous resource for me. In fact, it continues to be a powerful guide. There are easy steps to follow, but the direction is concrete & transformative. I highly recommend the Five Mantras in addition to any Highest Good content.

Five simple, practical and duplicable tools that face the challenges head on. Philip is incredibly generous with his vulnerability and authenticity and shares from a place of experience and a desire to improve situations for others. His content is so important in the current environment where toxicity in the workplace is rampant and finally being exposed for what it is.

The 5 Mantras Workshop surprised me as to the depth of real time valuable information that could be used in my day to day life. I'm so glad that Mr. Holmes' bad work experience has provided real help for those suffering from their PTSD jobs to move on--with confidence, with intention, and with authenticity. Thank you!

I attended the Five Mantras workshop from Galway, Ireland, and it was absolutely brilliant. Every part of it hit home. His five mantras, especially ‘Progress over Perfection,’ really stayed with me. I also loved his reminder to reframe mistakes and setbacks as things to be analyzed, not verdicts on my self-worth. Just the best. The three reflection questions and box breathing exercise were so practical and grounding. I left feeling focused, lighter, and more self-aware.

As a professional over the age of 50, I have been forced to quit a toxic environment 3 times in the last 5 years. I believe that this has been a symptom of evolution in business for the worse. Philips' advice on Instagram has been a beacon of positivity in dark moments. I know I am not alone and that I am not imagining things. I recently purchased his guide to navigate my new job search. I'm so glad I did. It helped identify the flags I would have probably convinced myself to ignore without it. I highly recommend this resource! Thank you, Philip, for speaking for all of us!

As a master's student looking for jobs right now, I was worried that I would end up in a toxic job that would suck my soul out of me. I asked a few people much older than I am about how to avoid a toxic workplace but none gave me helpful tips nor a useful framework to do so. This book offered a lot of signs to look for and clearly explained the underlying warnings behind each of these signs. The interview questions intended to gauge if the company is toxic or not were cleverly designed and easy to ask during an interview. I feel so safe and grounded after reading this book. It is such a relief! I highly recommend this book to all jobseekers out there!

I wish I had this resource years ago. Incredibly clear and helpful!

Philip has put together the perfect guide to help you take the next step in your career. When leaving a toxic place, it's important to learn from the experience and choose wisely for the next one. The problem is that we're trying to make that decision without enough guidance. This guide is the best resource to help you make the next decision with clarity and purpose. I couldn't recommend this more!

I faced a toxic job situation awhile back, left, and fell into an equally toxic setting! These tools are so helpful in shaping how I approach potentially difficult people and situations in my work life. A resource like this gives support and frameworks for the mindset and steps I can take to improve my own abilities and protect myself from the potential challenges of a toxic workspace.

As a Pastor in a growing church, the organization was moving at a rate where I needed an outside voice to bring clarity in how to lead an ever changing landscape. Phillip's coaching helped me understand more of who I am as a leader, how I thrive, and how to change the culture of an institution. Phillip's insight and compassion, vision, and care for his clients is a key reason why I look forward to our sessions. Easily the best investment I've made in growing in my leadership.

I’ve been working with Phillip for only a month, yet in that short time I’ve already learned practical tools and mindset shifts to improve my communication skills at work. I started working with Phillip because I identified patterns that have repeated throughout my career and I wanted to understand what I was doing to create these and how I could do things differently. Working with Phillip has brought a complete mindset shift that is enlightening , empowering, and exciting. Phillip’s coaching style is supportive and empathetic. He asks great questions that guide me to the answers I need but had been unable to find on my own.

My biggest challenge before I started working with Phillip was understanding the differences between a toxic environment and a dysfunctional work environment. I think many of us use the word "toxic" without realizing it is "just" dysfunction. Neither environment is healthy, but understanding your role through the Johari Window model and the five working geniuses that Phillip so expertly guides you through with utter compassion and kindness, helped me significantly take back my power, boost my confidence, and heal my work soul. Thank you Phillip, your servant leadership is unmatched.

I contacted Phillip at a time when my confidence & self-esteem had dropped significantly, and I felt this was impacting on my ability to communicate effectively in the workplace. Phillip's approach to coaching helped me to explore some "home truths", to acknowledge certain challenges I'd been subconsciously avoiding, and to flip my view of the workplace ghosts that I believed were "out to get me". Since meeting with Phillip on a weekly basis I've been able to make changes in both my written and verbal communication style, leading to an unexpected and enlightening meeting with my client, that I simply wouldn't have thought possible a few short weeks ago! Phillip's coaching style suits me very well... the sessions are relaxed, friendly and positive - even when he's encouraging me to "speak my truth" and acknowledge my own flaws. His guidance and direction during each meeting have felt conversational rather than instructional, and any "homework" suggestions have felt like a natural way to progress following each session... they're things I'm curious to try out and eager to build into my skill set. I'm very happy with my decision to sign-up with Phillip and I have no hesitation in recommending his services.
