The Heart of My Mission: Empowering Those Who Empower Others
Tricia Parido
Founder of Turning Leaves Recovery | Licensed Instructor at TAA | Empowering Coaches in Emotional Intelligence, Recovery, and Mental Health | Expert in Professional Growth and Business Development
I didn’t get into this work for the titles, the certifications, or the accolades. I stepped into this space because I know what it feels like to struggle, to feel like you’re drowning in your own battles, and to wonder if there’s a way out. My life has been shaped by moments of uncertainty, pain, and loss, but more importantly—by the choices I made to rise above it all. And that’s what I want to share with you.
Every choice we make is a step toward or away from our best selves. I’ve made the tough ones—the ones that seemed impossible at the time but ended up shifting everything. The truth is, one decision can change the entire trajectory of your life, and it’s that truth that fuels everything I do today.
I’m not here to offer some quick fix or surface-level solutions. I’m here to help people who help people—the coaches, clinicians, mentors, and practitioners who dedicate their lives to serving others, often without taking a moment to care for themselves. You are the ones I serve, because when you thrive, the world thrives. And that’s where Evolve and the Ultimate EQ Academy? come in.
The Evolution of Evolve: Breaking Free from What Holds You Back
There’s a point where you get tired of the same cycles. You’ve been battling with addiction, stress, and this constant tug-of-war with your own body. You’re ready for better, but something keeps holding you in place. I’ve been there. I’ve lived it. And I built Evolve to help people break free from that loop.
This isn’t another band-aid solution. Evolve is about true transformation—it’s about breaking free from the things that hold you back and becoming the person you’re meant to be. It’s a program that meets you where you are and gives you the tools to rebuild your life with purpose, clarity, and real, lasting change.
When I talk about breaking free, I’m not just talking about recovery from addiction. I’m talking about recovering your sense of self. Reclaiming your power. Whether it’s overcoming limiting beliefs or creating a healthier relationship with your body, Evolve is your way out of the fog. I designed this program to offer more than just help—it’s about complete evolution.
The Choice That Shifted Everything: My Mission to Help You Help Others
People often ask me why I spend so much time mentoring other coaches, clinicians, and practitioners. The truth? You matter. You’re out there on the frontlines, helping others heal, and I know how hard that can be. My mission is to make sure you are taken care of—mentally, emotionally, and professionally—so that you can continue to make an impact in the lives of others.
For more than a decade, I’ve seen the ripple effect of my work. The programs I’ve developed have helped people recover, find mental clarity, and build better relationships with their physical bodies. But I can’t reach everyone on my own. That’s where you come in. When I help you—when I teach you how to serve better, how to build your practice, and how to elevate your emotional intelligence—we multiply the number of people who get the support they need.
I’m not interested in throwing tools and techniques your way and wishing you good luck. I’m here to equip you with everything you need to build an empire—a practice that thrives, that serves, and that truly changes lives. That’s what the Ultimate EQ Academy? is all about.
Unlocking Personal Excellence: Real Tools for Real Transformation
We’ve all been to those summits where you leave inspired but lost. I wanted to create something different. Something real. The Unlocking Personal Excellence Summit is designed to give you practical, actionable tools that you can use immediately. This isn’t about feeling good for a few days and then forgetting what you learned. This is about deep reflection, personal growth, and actual transformation.
We’re not just talking about 11 presentations over 5 days. We’re talking about giving you the tools and teaching you how to apply them in your life right away. Each day is designed to build on the last, with daily reflection tools that help you absorb the lessons and start making changes in real time.
I’ve seen firsthand how powerful emotional intelligence can be, not just in relationships, but in leadership, mental health, and personal well-being. This summit is for the person who’s tired of surface-level solutions and ready for real change. Whether you’re a coach, clinician, or just someone looking to better yourself, this is your moment.
Building Your Coaching Empire: The Ultimate EQ Academy?
If you’re a coach or clinician, you didn’t get into this field just to get by. You want to build something meaningful—something that lasts. That’s where the Ultimate EQ Academy? comes in. This isn’t about stacking up certifications or checking boxes. It’s about learning how to build a coaching empire .
I built this academy with one purpose in mind: to equip people like you with the tools, support, and strategies to not only serve others but to thrive while doing it. From emotional intelligence mastery to business setup and branding, the Ultimate EQ Academy? is designed to help you create a practice that not only impacts lives but leaves a legacy.
Each phase of the program is tailored to where you are in your journey. We start with the foundations—advanced emotional intelligence and personal excellence—and build up to defining your professional identity, finding your ideal client, and setting up a fully operational practice. Whether you want to take it slow over 6 months or fast-track your success in 3 months, you’ll walk away with everything you need to create a business that works for you.
My mission is simple: to help people who help people. Whether it’s through recovery, mental health, or personal growth, when you’re equipped with the right tools, you can change lives. And I’m here to make sure you have those tools.
It All Comes Down to This
At the end of the day, this is about more than just programs and certifications. This is about human kindness. It’s about helping you become the best version of yourself so that you can go out into the world and help others do the same. It’s about building a ripple effect of positive change that starts with one person, one decision, one choice.
That’s why I do what I do. Because when you help people who help people, you don’t just impact one life—you impact countless lives. And together, we can create a world where everyone has the tools, the support, and the knowledge they need to thrive.
If you’re ready to take that step—whether it’s through Evolve, the Ultimate EQ Academy?, or the Unlocking Personal Excellence Summit—I’m ready to help you make it happen. Let’s rise together.
