Biography

From a very young age, Senka Holzer was fascinated by the biochemical connection between our minds and bodies. Youthful curiosity quickly turned into a career, leading Senka to her specialty—heart physiology.

After earning a PhD in Molecular Medicine, Senka received the Austrian Science Fund’s most prestigious fellowship for female scientists, which took her to the University of California, Davis. While living in California, she completed coach-training programs at UC Davis and UC Berkeley.

Senka left those programs wondering if disconnection from our values can impact our hearts. She organized a team of coaches and scientists and in 2015, her study won McLean Hospital and Harvard Medical School’s research award.

To turn her data into coaching tools, Senka started Science2Wellbeing. While training coaches around the globe, Senka discovered remarkable patterns about how top leaders think, act, and communicate about their values, further supporting her experimental findings.

Senka leads a research unit on heart signaling at the Department of Cardiology of the Medical University of Graz and enjoys sharing her work on values with her students, friends, professional coaches, leaders and total strangers sitting next to her on a plane.

Senka lives in Austria with her husband and two cutie-pie kids.

Regardless of our stage of human development, culture, or environmental circumstances, we all share the same 3 basic psychological needs: autonomy, competence, and relatedness. When these needs are met, we thrive. When they’re in short supply, we struggle.

This session will establish the science-backed framework for coaching to ensure your clients create the optimal ‘need-values-behavior’ relationship needed to foster social and emotional wellbeing. You’ll also examine how to break basic needs into smaller core values.

  1. You will receive a strong background in the latest well-being research, as well as how you can use it as a framework for coaching.
  2. You will learn about the interplay between psychological needs, core values, and behavior, a key lesson for fostering social and emotional wellbeing.
  3. You will understand how disbalance in the needs-values-behavior relationship can undermine one’s wellbeing and what coaches can do to restore it.
