See how emotional intelligence training has transformed organizations and individuals

"Participating in Core-EQ with Jon was a truly transformative experience. The program goes beyond leadership theory and challenges you to deeply understand yourself first—because real growth as a leader starts with self-awareness. Being in touch with your emotions, clear on your values, and aware of how you show up under pressure is the foundation of authentic leadership. Jon has created something special with Core-EQ, and I’m genuinely grateful for the insight and growth it sparked in me."

"Core EQ's emotional training course is a thoughtful, grounded way to deepen self‑awareness and improve emotional intelligence. He has a unique ability to create practical, actionable strategies that can be used in the workplace immediately. I walked away with a much deeper understanding of my own emotional needs and better tools for navigating difficult conversations. If you want to level up your team, Jon is the person to see."

"Our senior leadership team had the privilege of working with Core EQ during an executive offsite, and the impact was remarkable. Jon’s mastery of emotional intelligence is evident in every interaction. His guidance throughout the workshop was not only deeply insightful, but also thoughtfully personalized for each participant. We left the workshop not only more attuned to ourselves, but also better equipped to lead with empathy - both within our teams and in our personal lives. "

"What I appreciated most about CoreEQ’s emotional intelligence training was the environment it fostered. The sessions were welcoming, calm, and grounded, which made it easy for people to reflect honestly and have meaningful conversations. The work helped me articulate things I had understood intuitively, and I saw many others on our team find similar clarity. Jon’s approach is thoughtful, practical, and genuinely supportive. The impact lasted long after the training, and I would confidently recommend CoreEQ to anyone who wants to strengthen their emotional intelligence and support healthier team dynamics."
