🔥IF YOU HAVE WILDLY AMBITIOUS GOALS, I'm the Game Changing, Results Driven Force to be Reckoned With that You've Been Looking For, Dynamic High Performance Coach, Energized Trainer, Forbes Contributor, Lover of Life🔥

UNDER PRESSURE, YOU DON'T RISE. YOU REVERT TO THE LEVEL OF YOUR TRAINING.
MAKE SURE YOUR TRAINING IS EXCEPTIONAL.

Hi, I'm Julie Hruska. I'm a high performance executive coach and RTT® Therapist. I work with founders, family offices, and C suite executives to develop their executive edge, create high performance cultures, through mergers and acquisitions, IPO preparation, leadership transitions, and rapid scale. 

Combining personal trainings from Brendon Burchard, Marisa Peer, Baron Baptiste, and other world class mentors, I developed a style that merges mindset mastery with elite skillset execution, so clients excel under pressure with clarity, control, and consistency.

When pressure rises, most leaders don't lose skill. They lose signal. Clarity fractures. Execution turns into motion without alignment. Culture starts bleeding time, trust, and momentum.

This is the reset. I raise standards, create alignment, and install an execution rhythm that stops the chaos, restores control, and makes results consistent, measurable, and repeatable.

WHAT WE BUILD TOGETHER
• Emotional regulation and improved decision quality under pressure
• Strategic clarity that reduces second guessing 
• Executive presence and effective communication that steadies the room
• Influence, persuasion, and high stakes negotiation skills
• Conflict resolution that protects relationships and leads to results
• High performance culture built on standards, rhythm, and accountability
• Legacy alignment for long term impact

CLIENT IMPACT
Results look different by industry, but the pattern is consistent: clarity rises, accountability strengthens, execution accelerates, and business gains follow in profitability, retention, and revenue. Some examples include a 32% rise in EPS year over year, revenue scaling from 1.68B to 3.2B while sustaining margins near 41%, construction growth from about 22M to nearly 100M, and asset growth from 500M to 1B.

NOTABLE CLIENTS
JLL, Kimberly Clark, Edward Jones, MLB, Steve Madden, NCAA, Pregis, BNI, Van Andel Institute, Attivo Capital, Lorval Capital, Landry French Construction, MH Williams Construction, Las Brisas Property Management, Vitrum Glass, Apex Aluminum, and more plus additional confidential family offices

You don’t need MORE money. 💰

You need more CONTROL over what you already have.

I just had Mike Michalowicz back on Young and Profiting, and he told me about something that blew my mind 🤯

(If you want to listen to the full episode, comment MIKE and I’ll share the link 🔗)

It's called Parkinson's Law 👇🏼

"Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion."

⏰ The more time you're given, the longer things take.
👗 The bigger your closet, the more clothing fills it.
💸 The more money you have, the more you spend.

So Mike's fix? Stop trying to change your habits. CHANNEL them instead.

Most of us check our bank account, see one number, and spend based on that.

But that number includes rent, groceries, bills… everything.

So when you see "enough" for new furniture, you buy it.

Then panic when rent is due. 😬

The solution is simple:

Set up separate accounts at your bank for each purpose:
✅ Rent
✅ Groceries  
✅ Savings
✅ Fun money

Now when you check your balance, you see what's ACTUALLY available.

No willpower needed or extra budgeting apps. Just your existing bank account working smarter.

But this is just ONE of the strategies Mike shared… 👀

Make sure to comment MIKE if you want to watch the FULL episode 😉

What's your biggest money struggle right now?

In 60 seconds, I'll teach you a secret approach to close more sales 💰

(Save this for later 👇🏼)

Most people think they chase opportunity.

But that’s hardly true.

They run from LOSS ‼️

It’s called the Loss Aversion Theory.

👉🏻 We are more stressed about missing the flight than excited about the trip.
👉🏻 We are more afraid of losing $100 than thrilled to gain it.
👉🏻 We'll work harder to keep what we have than to get something new.

This is how the brain works. And the best salespeople use it.

Most people sell the dream:
"You'll 10x your revenue."
"Imagine the freedom."
"Think of the possibilities."

Sounds good… But it doesn't close 🤷🏼‍♀️

Here's what actually closes: 

Instead of: "This will 10x your revenue."
Say: "Every month you wait is costing you $10K."

One inspires. The other creates urgency.

Urgency closes deals.

The best pitch I ever made wasn't about what they'd gain.

It was about what they were already losing by staying stuck.

Stop selling the destination.

Start selling the price of standing still.

What's one thing you've been putting off that's quietly costing you?
