About Elizabeth Diane

Founder of Heart’s Mind™ Coaching | Developer of the Theory of Unconscious Response™

Hello — I’m Elizabeth Diane.

My work lives at the intersection of science, intuition, and human growth. I’m the developer of the Theory of Unconscious Response™, author of The Heart’s Mind, and the creator of a 12-phase model that maps how we naturally recover autonomy, reorient around meaning, and begin to grow again — especially when life doesn’t go according to plan.

But this work didn’t begin in a lab.
It began with life.

A Personal Turn Toward Meaning

Years ago, in the middle of personal and professional upheaval, I started to notice something consistent in myself and others:
Whenever life disrupted us — emotionally, physically, or spiritually — something in us still moved forward. Even before we understood it, our inner lives responded in ways that seemed purposeful.

I became curious. What was this deeper intelligence we weren’t taught to trust?

That question turned into over two decades of research, reflection, and field testing — and eventually into the 12 Phases™ of Unconscious Response, a model I discovered, documented, and now teach.

A Theory Rooted in Reality

The Theory of Unconscious Response™ is not a motivational pep talk or a personality framework.
It’s a developmental pattern — an intrinsic, organism-level system we all experience whether we realize it or not. These phases show how we:

• Reclaim our sense of self after disruption

• Realign with what matters

• And organically generate new direction

This theory isn’t something I invented. It’s something I witnessed, organized, and tested across time, roles, and people. I’ve seen it in client transformations, life transitions, and even the quiet, private moments when people find themselves again after feeling lost.

Coaching That Respects Your Process

When I coach, I don’t lead with answers. I listen for the phases — the subtle yet reliable signals that show where growth is already unfolding.

Heart’s Mind™ Coaching invites you to work with your own process, not against it. You don’t need to force transformation. It’s already underway. My role is to help you recognize it, follow it, and apply it where it matters — in your life, work, leadership, or relationships.

We begin with mutual discovery. Not everyone is a fit for this work, and that’s okay. If you’re drawn to it, I trust you’ll know.

Where We Begin

Our first step isn’t a call to action.
It’s a call to attention — to your own sense of meaning, timing, and readiness.
If something in you is stirring, I invite you to begin here:

Start with the heart. Lead with your life.
