Part 2: Close Up Radio to Welcome Back Donna Zajonc of The Power of TED

SEATTLE, WA - When faced with challenges, many of us slip into familiar reactive roles: the helpless victim, the blaming persecutor, or the heroic rescuer. These roles form the Dreaded Drama Triangle, a destructive cycle first identified by Dr. Stephen Karpman in the 1960s. Today, Donna Zajonc champions a powerful alternative: TED* (*The Empowerment Dynamic)®, a framework developed by her business partner, David Emerald, Together, David and Donna co-founded the Center for The Empowerment Dynamic, where they continue to share this transformative work.

With almost 25 years of professional coaching experience -- and sometimes called “a coach’s coach” -- Donna leads courses designed to teach coaches, HR professionals, and leaders how to break free from the drama cycle and embrace TED*.   Instead of falling into reactive roles, TED* empowers individuals to shift into the more empowering TED* roles of Creator, Challenger, and Coach—offering a more constructive way to navigate both personal and professional challenges.

Donna explains, “The shift to TED* is a not a quick 'one and done', rather it is a journey. It requires self-awareness and an ongoing commitment to make more empowering choices.” Her work, rooted in her book Who Do You Want to Be on the Way to What You Want, empowers coaches to help others transform their lives by embracing TED* roles.
