About Elle
Hi, I’m Elle Ingalls, one of the world’s top experts on the fight-or-flight stress response. My mission is to help you, your team, or your organization, learn my simple three-step Pressure-Free Method to eliminate the effects of stress on your mind and body. My method is simple, but you are complex. I’ve built the tools you need to unlock your unique full potential, to find the authentic you underneath the stress and overwhelm. Even if you are fairly calm, you are probably still under the influence of stress hormones. You’ll find out why when you experience my free trainings, my book or we have a strategy call together.
I grew up in Concord, New Hampshire, and earned three degrees from the University of Michigan: two music degrees and a Master of Business Administration. I was the first woman admitted to the orchestral conducting program and rowed Varsity Crew for three years. My husband Peter and I raised three boys in Battle Creek, Michigan. My own sons were the ones who asked me to coach their baseball team in mental toughness back in 2010. What boys want their mother in the dugout? Well, they did! Now thousands of people from around the globe have learned the Pressure-Free Method with me.
How did I create Pressure-Free? Well, I’m not a therapist or psychologist, although I frequently coach people in those professions. I’m a performer. For decades I have used simple mental toughness tools to perform at high levels as an executive and musician, and I have taught these tools to musicians and athletes to prevent performance anxiety. In 2010, after thirty years of study and practice, I had a major breakthrough, and began creating my method. This method is a game-changer. It has the potential to change the world. Many of my clients have said exactly that!
