Hello!  I am Maria T. Finch.  I am an Intuitive Strategy Guide for high achievers who seek greater fulfillment in one or many aspects of life.

Why do I talk about mindcluck?  (Yes, “mindcluck” means what you think it means. 😉)

In my experience, mindcluck is a daily battle for everyone.  Mindcluck can make even the best moments harder and who needs that?

When you silence your mindcluck, you can more readily tune into your intuition (gut sense, inner intelligence, whatever you want to call it).

When you operate from your intuition, you will be able to more easily approach life from a place of calm confidence.

Have you wondered if you’re in the wrong job, wrong relationship, wrong situation, etc.? 

Are you unsatified and also unsure about how exactly you got to this point and what to do next?

When mindcluck rules your mind, it’s easy to repeat patterns that make life suck.

Silence mindcluck, listen to your own wisdom, and BAM…

It becomes much easier to:

• Figure out what you really want in any situation,
• Set and achieve the goals that matter to you the most,
• Create new patterns that make you thrive and become the queen or king of your life.

For those who love to read, here is more info about me…

•  I am both highly intuitive and creative, and logical and strategic.
• I have lived in 6 US states and in Europe, Africa and Asia.
• I have a BA from Vassar College (major: biology) and a Master’s Degree in International Affairs from Columbia University School of International and Public Affairs (I created my own concentration: international economic development and entrepreneurial business).
• I was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Togo, West Africa and an Associate Peace Corps Director in Lesotho, Southern Africa.
• I have worked in a variety of interesting for profit and not for profit organizations.
• I am an entrepreneur.  In addition to Silence the Mindcluck, I have created 2 other businesses.  I created a cultural travel company, which unfortunately, got wiped out by 9/11, and a mosquito net business, Tedderfield, LLC, which just celebrated its 7 year anniversary.
• I have guided and coached people in multiple ways throughout my 30+ year career–it has always been a natural role for me.

Despite having a lot of success in societal terms, before I dedicated myself to silencing my own mindcluck and operating from my intuition as much of the time as possible, I spent too much time feeling unfulfilled in many ways.

I faced many big life challenges and often found myself getting overwhelmed by the accompanying rollercoasters of emotions, which made getting through these tough times harder.

As I got better at shutting down my own mindcluck and operating from my intuition:

• I started approaching life with calm confidence much more of the time;
• I began to inherently know the best option when facing decisions;
• It became easier to recognize, appreciate and use my strengths and to develop new ones;
• I became better able to express and release the emotions that get churned up in times of stress;
• I dramatically increased my overall senses of satisfaction and fulfillment; and
• I began to feel like I am the queen of my own existence–a truly wonderful feeling!

As an Intuitive Strategy Guide, my goal is to guide people who are successful but feel unsatisfied with one or many aspects of their lives to quiet their minds and to more easily access and operate from their intuition so that true satisfaction and fulfillment go hand in hand with success.

From having lived and worked in multiple international cultures and in a variety of microcultures within the US, I have developed unique and dynamic perspectives on life, work, relationships, and more.

I have a special ability to see more options and possibilities in any situation than might be immediately apparent.

I am a natural strategic thinker…I love guiding people to figure out the best path forward no matter what obstacles may be present.

And to all that I do, I bring very deep empathy.
