Why EQ Wize®?

As a Change Management Expert and Emotional Intelligence Coach, Monique witnessed a recurring problem-bright, capable young professionals struggling to secure entry-level positions. Even her own son faced this challenge.

Despite strong academic backgrounds, most entry-level candidates present similar résumés. Without meaningful differentiators like unique experiences, top-tier internships, or real-world exposure, it’s difficult to stand out in today’s competitive job market.

This realization inspired the creation of EQ Wize®,  a comprehensive program designed to help young professionals develop the emotional intelligence, self-leadership, and career readiness skills that make them truly “hire-ready.”

Elevate Your Skills and Rise Above the Competition

These skills are at the heart of success in both personal and professional life.

Monique’s innovative coaching approach is grounded in Brain Science, Emotional Intelligence, the Science of Well-Being, and the Psychology of Happiness, blending scientific insight with practical tools for real-world transformation.

Meet Coach Monique

Throughout her career, she has worked extensively with young adults ages 18–30 through Launch and Failure-to-Launch programs, helping them navigate one of the most challenging transitions of life — moving from education to independence and career success.

Get Started

After over two decades of coaching, Monique consistently identified recurring challenges among young adults around Emotional Intelligence (EQ). Many young adults struggle, not because they lack talent or ambition, but because they aren't yet equipped with the tools required to strengthen their communication, resilience, confidence, problem-solving, and critical thinking, and other crucial soft skills.
