THE PROBLEM I SOLVE
You're Not Overloaded. You're Under-Strategized, Mentally.
Most of the women leaders I work with arrive with the same line: "I'm functioning, but I've lost something." They're not burned out. They're losing their discernment.
Here's what I see coming up, over and over:
The 3 Signals That Bring Women Leaders to Me
Decision fatigue.
You make 200 decisions a day. By evening, choosing what's for dinner becomes an effort. You know a good leader shouldn't be drained like this — but you don't know where to draw the line.
The amplified inner critic.
The higher you climb, the louder the voice in your head gets. Imposter syndrome. Perfectionism. The fear of letting your team down. You still perform — but the inner cost keeps climbing.
Losing your
"why."
You deliver. You hold it together. You shine on the surface. But you no longer recognize the woman who started this project. You feel like you're managing your life instead of leading it.
"You can't think your way out by trying harder. The way out is somewhere else — in how you train your mind, not in how much effort you demand of it."
— Lucie Montpetit

WHICH PROGRAM IS RIGHT FOR ME?
Choose in 60 Seconds
If you're still on the fence, here are 3 concrete scenarios to help you choose. There's no wrong answer — only the right starting point.
01
Choose 1:1
Coaching if...
- You're navigating a major transition (a new role, a merger, a departure, a comeback) and you want to move through it with clarity.
- You're carrying things you can't share with anyone — not family, not your team, not the board.
- You want a 100% confidential space, at a pace calibrated to yours.
02
Choose the Corporate Lunch-and-Learn if...
- You're an HR director, executive, or association president and you want to give your teams a performance activator.
- You want to test a short format before a deeper commitment (workshops, manager coaching).
- You're planning a return from vacation, a kick-off, or a recognition event.
03
Choose the Group Intensive Program if...
- You're ready to invest 7 weeks in lasting change — and you value the dynamic between peers.
- You want to build a network of women leaders who truly understand you.
- You need a structured rhythm, with a cohort moving forward together.

Detailed Comparison Table
Compare the 3 Programs at a Glance.
Here's the big picture. If a single criterion already points you clearly in one direction, it's probably the right place to start.
AT PERFORMANCE LUCIDE™
The Shared Method Behind All 3 Programs
The PQ® Program by Positive Intelligence® (Shirzad Chamine, New York Times best-selling author) is a mental training program used as is. Lucie brings her field experience to it through her Performance Lucide™ coaching.
"Like a muscle, the brain gets stronger through repetition — not through willpower. The PQ® Program by Positive Intelligence® (Shirzad Chamine, New York Times best-selling author), used as is, trains three specific components. Lucie brings her field experience to it through her Performance Lucide™ coaching."
Component 1
Identifying the Saboteurs
We identify the automatic reflexes that sabotage your performance (perfectionist, avoider, hyper-rational, hyper-vigilant, etc.). We name them. We understand their positive intent. And most importantly: we neutralize them through training, not through willpower.
Component 2
Self-Mastery Through Daily Mental Fitness
Transformation doesn't come from motivation, but from short training, anchored in your day. Brief sensory practices — the PQ Reps, sometimes just 10 seconds — calm the regions of the brain associated with the Saboteurs and activate those associated with the Sage. That's what lets you choose your response, rather than simply endure it.
Component 3
Activating the Sage
The 5 powers of the Sage — Empathy, Exploration, Innovation, Navigation, Activation — are also developed like a muscle. They're what produce calm, creativity, and discernment under pressure.
"We don't change through willpower. We change because we've trained the right circuit enough times for it to become the default reflex."
— Lucie Montpetit

ABOUT LUCIE (MINI-BIO)
The Woman Behind the Method
My name is Lucie Montpetit. Over my 35-year career in functional rehabilitation, many professional women — leaders, physicians, and entrepreneurs who were carrying too much — came to see me. It's a thread I've followed since 2021 under the name Performance Lucide™. I add to it 40 years of martial arts and Qi Gong practice, and my PQ Coach™ training in Positive Intelligence®. I got here by going through two defining passages — my father's serious diagnosis, which I witnessed very early on, and two years of a disabling illness — that taught me perseverance in the face of adversity. What I take from it: real performance isn't found in strength, it's found in clarity.
That passage taught me what I teach today: real performance isn't found in force. It's found in clarity.
5 Reasons to Choose Performance Lucide™
Why Performance Lucide™ — and Not Another Coaching Program
There are a lot of coaches in Quebec. Here's what makes this work different.
01
40 years, not 4
I didn't get a certification in 6 months and set up shop. I've been coaching since 1986. That depth changes what I notice from the very first session.
02
A scientifically grounded, proprietary method
"My method rests on the same scientific foundations as the PQ® Program by Positive Intelligence®: neuroscience, behavioural science, and the science of human performance. Depending on your needs, I use the PQ® Program as is, then my own tools (the 3Rs, cognitive availability) — separately or in combination — in 1:1 coaching, in a group, or for a one-off situation."
03
Demanding, out of respect
I name what matters, respectfully and without detours — even when it's not what you want to hear. It's what my clients keep coming back for.
04
A somatic experience, not just a mental one
40 years of internal martial arts and Qi Gong taught me one thing: you don't change the mind by staying in your head. This work integrates the somatic dimension — that's what makes it durable.
05
Three formats — one standard
Whether you choose 1:1, the keynote, or the group, you get the same method, the same rigour, the same Lucie. The format changes. The standard never does.
PROGRAM FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions About the Programs
What programs does Lucie Montpetit offer?
Lucie Montpetit offers three complementary programs built on her Performance Lucide™ method: (1) a 3-month 1:1 coaching program for leaders ($2,500 CAD), (2) a 90-minute corporate lunch-and-learn to activate teams, and (3) a 7-week group intensive program in a closed cohort for women leaders.
Which program is right for me if I'm a solo leader?
If you're navigating a transition, a sensitive issue, or a moment of personal questioning, 1:1 coaching is designed for you. It's the most confidential and the deepest space — calibrated entirely to your pace. The free 40-minute discovery session confirms it's the right starting point.
Are the programs offered in French or English?
All programs are offered in French. 1:1 coaching and the corporate lunch-and-learn are also available in English on request. Lucie works with clients in Quebec, elsewhere in Canada, and internationally (by videoconference).
How much do the programs cost?
1:1 coaching: $2,500 CAD for 3 months (12 sessions). The corporate lunch-and-learn: custom quote. The group intensive program: $1,500 CAD. The initial discovery session is free, with no commitment.
Is there a guarantee or a refund policy?
The 40-minute discovery session is free and commitment-free, and exists specifically to confirm fit before any investment. For 1:1 coaching, a check-in is possible, if needed, after the first 3 sessions; if the work isn't the right fit for you, the remaining sessions are refunded on a pro-rated basis.
How long before I see results?
The first breakthroughs come as early as the first sessions — often a fresh clarity about an issue or a relationship. More lasting transformations (a new mental reflex under pressure) generally take hold by the end of the core program. These results depend directly on training: without daily practice between sessions, progress remains limited. In situations of extreme stress, early results are often more fragile — it's by continuing the training that the new reflex becomes reliable, even under heavy pressure. A bit like learning the piano: until a mistake is properly corrected through repetition, it tends to come back.
Is Lucie Montpetit a psychotherapist?
No. Lucie is a human performance expert and a certified Positive Intelligence® coach. Her work is neither psychotherapy nor medical treatment. If a client presents mental health concerns, Lucie refers her to an appropriate healthcare professional — it's a matter of professional ethics.
Can the programs be paid for by my company?
Yes. For 1:1 coaching and the group intensive program, many clients have their organization fund the program (continuing education, leadership development, HR budget). Lucie provides a detailed invoice and, on request, a description of the content for internal records. The corporate lunch-and-learn is by nature billed to the organization.
How does the free discovery session work?
A 40-minute meeting by videoconference (Teams). Together, we clarify your current situation, what brings you here, and which program fits. No commitment at the end. If you want to go further, we plan what comes next; if not, you leave with a clear read on your situation — which is already a lot.
What's the difference from a traditional executive coach?
Traditional executive coaching works mainly on skills and behaviours (communication, strategy, decision-making). The Performance Lucide™ method works further upstream: on the mental patterns that produce those behaviours. That's what makes the change lasting rather than situational.
Can I switch programs partway through?
Yes. Some clients start with the lunch-and-learn (a spark within their organization), then move into 1:1 coaching or join the group program to benefit from longer-term training and the support of Lucie and/or the group. Sequencing is discussed during the discovery session.
Where is Lucie Montpetit based?
Lucie is based in Quebec, in the Laurentians. All 1:1 and group programs take place by videoconference, which allows her to work with clients anywhere in Quebec, across Canada, and internationally. Corporate lunch-and-learns take place in person on-site in Greater Montreal and the Laurentians, or virtually, depending on the need.

- A 40-minute meeting by videoconference.
- No commitment, no sales pressure.
- You leave with a clear read on your situation — whatever comes next.
