Drawing from the fields of Positive Psychology, Lifestyle as Medicine, and Organizational Behavior it is our mission to optimize potential and enhance well-being for individuals, couples, and organizations. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61117f697b1e2e7b75517a6a/4664cde6-f367-4bdc-aedb-38b14fa89c32/Headshot.jpg About - Our Founder Kate’s journey to find answers for her own stress, constant busyness, and depression led her to seek out the tools that have been built into Ardea Insights. She is passionate about sharing evidence-based interventions to help others to live their best lives, filled with joy, energy, and excellence. Kate’s eclectic background began with a bachelor’s degree in Psychology followed by a master’s degree in International Development. She spent three years coordinating graduate-level courses for NGO leaders in the US and in Uganda and then returned to work as a research advisor and Social Return on Investment Analyst, helping charities, NGOs, and social enterprises to better understand, quantify, and improve their impact. Ultimately, she found her way back to psychology, obtaining a second master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with specific coursework in the biological basis of behavior. With a primary interest in understanding what it takes for humans to thrive, she has completed coursework in Positive Psychology through Harvard University and is a certified Emotional Intelligence practitioner. Prior to launching Ardea Insights, Kate spent five years as an associate and then partner at a prominent organizational behavior firm in Pennsylvania, coaching, speaking, and teaching in the areas of workplace well-being and emotional intelligence. Kate has taught both organizational behavior and psychology at the collegiate level and currently serves as an adjunct professor for Eastern Mennonite University. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61117f697b1e2e7b75517a6a/1628556297631-9F8OCR0E45MDCQU9GU31/colby-winfield-Mwe4CtIk--k-unsplash.jpg About - Ardea The word “ardea” is Latin for heron. Not only do we love the quiet strength of the heron, but the word carries symbolism of stability, wisdom, and the ability to evolve and progress. In the North American Native tradition it is said that the long thin legs of the heron reflect that we do not need massive pillars to remain stable, but that we have the strength within to stand on our own. https://www.ardeainsights.com/home daily 1.0 2022-04-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61117f697b1e2e7b75517a6a/1628638330221-BB7Z1QAL6M8P24JJQFH6/nick-morrison-FHnnjk1Yj7Y-unsplash.jpg Home Our Approach Drawing from the fields of Positive Psychology, Lifestyle as Medicine, and Organizational Behavior, we utilize online learning, targeted assessments, group facilitation, one-on-one coaching, and virtual retreats to guide clients toward greater well-being that sticks. We want to help you to build a lifestyle that lasts well beyond your work with us. https://www.ardeainsights.com/contact daily 0.75 2022-04-03 https://www.ardeainsights.com/weekend-retreat-1 daily 0.75 2021-12-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847903854-US92D97SPXSFKLOB824X/image-asset.jpeg Weekend Retreat - Why? After years of delivering this material to individuals and companies through one-on-one coaching, counseling, and workshops we realized that perhaps the best way to teach others the benefits of these evidence-based well-being practices is just to show you. This program is not about stepping away for a break and then returning to normal. It is about teaching you how to pause in a way that is truly rejuvenating so that you return to your day-to-day with a renewed sense of energy, passion, and balance. How It Works: When you sign up for Weekend Retreat you will receive a package in the mail which includes a fully designed 2 ½ day retreat schedule, journal with prompts, workbook, and prep guide. The prep guide will help you to prepare yourself and your space for the Weekend Retreat. On Friday evening you will log in from your chosen location and join other retreat attendees for a Welcome Session. For the remainder of the weekend, you will tune in to what your body and brain need, move your body in a way that feels good and energizing, fuel yourself with delicious and nutritious meals, engage in life-giving activities, and spend time resting and reflecting on what is most important to you. We will also meet daily as a group to share a meal and check in on our progress. On the last day you will complete an individualized well-being plan to carry your chosen practices forward. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61117f697b1e2e7b75517a6a/1628616941585-45YSRRL8YVGDFMQ3EXJO/nick-morrison-FHnnjk1Yj7Y-unsplash.jpg Weekend Retreat - To Join: The next Weekend Retreat is scheduled for February 25-27th with a deposit due by February 19th. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694583486-2PQT0LQ193RL7MCB6DX4/20140228_Trade+151_0046.jpg Weekend Retreat https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694644871-IC85FNH781UNZSZEGHDR/Aro+Ha_0428.jpg Weekend Retreat https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618497259178-6XJGK9GR6YAVBQL5L519/20140301_Trade-151_012-2.jpg Weekend Retreat https://www.ardeainsights.com/the-power-couple daily 0.75 2022-08-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618497259178-6XJGK9GR6YAVBQL5L519/20140301_Trade-151_012-2.jpg The Power Couple https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694644871-IC85FNH781UNZSZEGHDR/Aro+Ha_0428.jpg The Power Couple https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694583486-2PQT0LQ193RL7MCB6DX4/20140228_Trade+151_0046.jpg The Power Couple https://www.ardeainsights.com/wb-101 daily 0.75 2022-08-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61117f697b1e2e7b75517a6a/1628618301574-QNQ2QMJPEJQX5V8KVXB4/danielle-macinnes-IuLgi9PWETU-unsplash.jpg WB 101 - How It Works: Well-Being 101 is a six-week asynchronous program based in positive psychology and lifestyle as medicine.
