JC Hanson ~ Founder
My Quiet Connection

After spending over 20 years as a Financial Advisor, my personal battle with Professional Burnout and Addiction inspired me to embark on a new career path. I sought training, credentials, and licenses that aligned with my own experiences so I could begin helping those facing Burnout and Addiction. During my extensive coursework and practicum in the Master of Behavioral Health / Addiction program at Eastern Washington University, I had a revelation. Although immense resources are allocated to profitable treatment options following a crisis or rock-bottom moment, very little effort is directed toward early intervention and prevention.

​

Now, through My Quiet Connection, we focus on providing relevant Professional Development solutions that not only sharpen your specific job skills, but also have the added benefit of integrated Mindfulness and Meditation strategies.  Our team has found that adding Burnout Prevention Training to traditional professional development improves overall job satisfaction and lowers stress. Specifically, we promote activities that target the Six Categories of Job Stress.

​

Mindfulness and meditation are teachable skills that have been used for thousands of years to lower stress and anxiety while improving focus and performance. I am active in my own mindfulness and meditation practice which began in 2014 and currently teach a vetted Mindfulness and Meditation evidenced based curriculum at My Quiet Connection. The Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Training and Curriculum I use are Certified Instructor Sean Fargo’s through his company Mindfulness Exercises www.mindfulnessexercises.com. Sean is a former Buddhist Monk and instructor for the mindfulness program developed at Google, Mindfulness Teacher for the E.P.A., Kaiser Permanente, Tesla, Facebook, Ernst & Young, Solano Prison, & Spirit Rock Family Program.
