Discover Deep Transformational Life Coaching in Glendale, AZ

Living the human experience is a beautiful, complex journey. It's filled with peaks and valleys of pleasure and pain, both physical and emotional. It seems so simple when we're children, but things change as we grow: we begin to form our own opinions, develop romantic relationships, build a career, and work our way through life. With age comes maturity and personal development, but all too often, we grow older without learning how to manage and accept our emotions, thoughts, and relationships. This causes us to get stuck, and for some, they then stay stuck - trapped in a vicious cycle of self-doubt, judgement and negativity.

Sound familiar? If so, ask yourself if you are suffering from any of the following:

Unresolved childhood trauma
Grief, loss, and betrayals in life that you can't get past
Harmful patterns that keep you stuck in a rut, with no hope of moving forward
Anxiety about your personal or work life
Anger, insecurity, and stress that gets the best of you
Codependency and people pleasing-problems that leave you emotionally bankrupt
Family or romantic relationship issues that you can't handle or resolve
Negative thoughts and self-criticizing problems equating to "I'm not good enough" and "I can't succeed."
Overthinking and racing thoughts that distract you during the day and keep you up at night
Lack of motivation or purpose in your life
Low self-worth, self-love, and lack of personal development

If you're struggling because you aren't sure what to do next or how to change your life for the better, know that you aren't alone. Millions of people just like you aren't where they want to be in life. Fortunately, your personal growth life coach in Glendale, AZ, is here to help you reimagine, refocus, and rebuild your life for the better.

We All Suffer at Times. Now, Lets Do Something About It

If you're reading this page, chances are you're not exactly happy with how your life is going. And that's okay. You're in a safe place.

Finding the right person to speak with about the personal growth issues in your life is challenging. Some life coaches in Glendale only see you as a transaction - a means to make money and provide unhelpful, mediocre services. Christy Maxey is the anthesis of uneducated, fly-by-night life coaches. She has worked with thousands of people just like you and has built a reputation of helping people as their life coach in Glendale and throughout Arizona, as well as with clients all over the world.

As a former therapist, Christy uses an effective system of evidenced-based concepts, tools, and exercises like trauma-informed coaching, inner child healing and EMDR to uncover true self-worth. Christy's signature system, the Maxx Method, helps develop emotional intelligence and provides life-long skills that will help guide you in relationships with yourself and others.

Remember: you are not broken YOU ARE NOT BROKEN. There is nothing wrong with you. And, it doesn't have to take years of therapy to get the results you are hoping for

The Maxx Method Difference

Many people use go to therapy but see few results. They've tried reading books, listening to podcasts, and maybe even hired a life coach. But at the end of the day, they're still struggling with root issues that cause stress, anxiety, and feelings of helplessness.

Christy Maxey has developed The Maxx Method, an evidenced-based path to Personal Development, Healing and Emotional Intelligence. When you work with Christy Maxey as your life coach, you will spend your time together getting to the root cause of your problems. You'll answer questions like:

How are you holding yourself back?
What limiting beliefs do you have?
What are you resisting?
How are self-doubt and judgment keeping you stuck?
How is your past STILL affecting you now?
Where is your anxiety coming from?

Often, we don't know the answers to these questions without help. Unfortunately, many therapists and life coaches in Glendale, AZ lack focus. They encourage you to talk about your day, week, and month. They get a general sense of what is bothering you, but before any real work is done, your therapy session is over. In the end, you see few results and you're left reeling with more anxiety and stress than before.

Clients choose Christy Maxey as their personal development life coach because she gets right to the issues without wasting your time. She pulls on her vast experience to heal men and women of all ages, using traditional techniques from psychology and psychotherapy combined with results-oriented coaching. Christy always emphasizes honesty, compassion, and accountability, so you get real benefits and real efficiency with her coaching.

If you're ready to be re-introduced to your authentic self, your journey starts here.

Men's Personal Development Growth Coaching in Glendale, AZ

Men in today's society often fight against strong feelings of stress, anger, and self-defeating patterns that keep them stuck in a rut. Unfortunately, many men are socialized to ignore their feelings and inner experiences. As a men's therapist and life coach for more than 20 years, Christy Maxey has the techniques and experience to break down the barriers keeping men from living the life they want.

Men deserve compassion, but they also deserve high expectations and positive confrontation when necessary. Unlike some life coaches in Glendale, Christy's approach doesn't allow men to hide behind insecurity and grandiosity. Male clients choose Christy because she pushes them to live to their true potential without wasting time.

Coaching Men with Relationship Issues

Relationships don't always come easily and we are not taught how to have healthy, secure relationships. Challenges can be hard to overcome without help. If any of the following problems sound familiar, life coaching with Christy Maxey could be the solution:

Difficult Relating to Partner
Repeating Negative Patterns in Relationships
Feelings of Loneliness
Feeling Misunderstood

Coaching Men with Stress

Stress is the leading root cause of disease. Although men are taught to "just deal with it," that's not the best answer. With Christy Maxey as your life coach, you can address issues with:

No Appreciation for Hard Work
Pleasing Everyone Except Yourself
Exhaustion without Physical Activity
Feelings of Unhappiness and Lack of Motivation

Coaching Men with Anger

It's no wonder that men suffer from aggression and anger when we tell them to turn off their emotions. Life coaching can help you overcome:

Aggressive Behavior
Outbursts of Anger
Career Issues
Relationship Issues
Verbal Aggression and Abuse

If you're a man open to working through your problems to better yourself, there's good news. Christy Maxey's proven, efficient life coaching system can help you be the father, husband, friend, and self that you truly want to be. With the right tools and guidance, you can live life with less anger and stress. And with the right tools, you can focus on finding your voice without resorting to aggression.

Women's Personal Development Growth Coaching in Glendale, AZ

Women are beautiful, unique individuals. But many seem to suffer from the same universal theme - an inner critic that hinders true growth and sabotages them from a fulfilling, happy life.

As a therapist, Christy Maxey spent much of her time working directly with women just like you. Christy combines an incredible depth of knowledge and guidance with life coaching energy, uncovering your true potential as a woman, free of dysfunction.

Unfortunately, no matter what women do as mothers and employees, many believe that they're never good enough. They feel like they're not worthy, not lovable, and not strong.

If you feel like you're unworthy of success and happiness, it's time for a change. It's time to look in the mirror and take care of yourself, not someone else.

If you're ready to reclaim the life you deserve, your journey to success starts with women's life coaching in Glendale. Here are just a few areas that Christy Maxey helps women break free of the chains that keep them down:

Coaching Women Suffering from Pleasing & Codependency

Many women today do everything for everybody else but don't take time to heal or explore personal development. Personal development growth coaching from Christy Maxey can help you address these common issues:

Self-Medicating to Cover Up Feelings of Inadequacy
Feeling like You've Lost Yourself
People Taking Advantage of Your Kindness
Over-Providing for Others

Coaching Women with Unpleasant Emotions

Many women are unsure of how to untangle the mess of emotions they go through. Life coaching in Glendale can help you manage your emotions and find the clarity and love you need in your life. Does this sound like you?

Feelings of Shame and Guilt
Issues with Your Career or Job
Unhappiness with Others' Behaviors
Bouts of Sobbing That Lead to Anxiety and Depression

Coaching Women with Self-Confidence Issues

Though every life is valuable, society triggers many women to de-value themselves as they grow older. One of the core components of Christy's life coaching is to help women value who they are. Self-confidence can help by:

Highlighting Positive Attributes Over Shortcomings
Finding Solutions to Confidence Issues
Teaching You How to Love Yourself, Flaws and All
Giving You the Tools to Assert Yourself Without Guilt

If you're a woman and you're ready for change, we've got great news. Women's coaching with Christy is all about change and focus. It's active and experiential coaching that will keep you engaged and accountable to yourself. The result? A life bursting with happiness, fulfillment, and joy.

EMDR Coaching in Glendale, AZ

EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing, is a powerful technique used to heal people from distressing and disturbing life experiences. EMDR Coaching with Christy Maxey allows the mind to heal from psychological trauma much quicker than traditional therapy methods.

When we go through traumatic experiences, we often associate those events with negative beliefs and emotions like feelings of shame, anger, and inadequacy. EMDR helps the mind reprocess the life-changing event, allowing the client to heal and live a life they love.

Is EMDR Right for You?

Many people are reluctant to try EMDR because of poor results from previous attempts. Christy Maxey's EMDR Coaching includes guided visualization and inner child healing for a more robust approach. This tactic is part of Christy's Maxx Method - a life-changing framework for personal development.

What is the Maxx Method?

You may have received help from a therapist or life coach in Glendale, AZ, in the past, only to fall back into bad habits and self-destruction. If that sounds like you, chances are you never addressed the underlying cause of your problems. You cut the weed but never removed the root.

The Maxx Method is a six-part holistic system of evidenced-based tools, exercises, and concepts, developed to help you achieve maximized personal development.

EMDR and the Maxx Method are not only used for extreme traumas. They can be very helpful for common memories and events that foster feelings of low self-esteem and powerlessness, too. These methods were developed to help manage unpleasant emotions, show you how to find deep love, and heal old wounds that keep you stuck.

EMDR and the Maxx Method could be right for you if you have experienced:

Social Anxiety
Loss, Betrayal, and Grief
Negative Core Beliefs
Hurt, Anger, and Sadness
Overthinking
Low Self-Esteem
Lack of Confidence

Break Out of Your Comfort Zone and Be Proud of Your True Self

The world is changing. People are finally learning how to manage their own human experiences. But we can't do it alone. Christy Maxey is here to guide you on the path to a positive, guilt-free life. If you're ready to look inward, find peace, and develop the skills to love your true self, you're in the right place. After all, you've been suffering long enough.

Mixed-use project near State Farm Stadium dubbed ‘District at Sportsman’s Park, Glendale’

PHOENIX – A planned mixed-used development in the shadow of State Farm Stadium will be known as “District at Sportsman’s Park, Glendale,” the West Valley suburb announced Wednesday.

The city of Glendale, the Arizona Cardinals and developer Plaza Companies are collaborating on the project at the southeast corner of 95th Avenue and Cardinals Way, just south of the stadium.

The chosen moniker extends the existing brand of several venues on the stadium grounds: the Great Lawn at Sportsman’s Park, Heritage at Sportsman’s Park and South Lawn at Sportsman’s Park.

“The connection between District at Sportsman’s Park, Glendale and State Farm Stadium — and its adjacent Great Lawn — brings a unique opportunity for an enhanced guest and user experience year-round as we continue to add amenities such as Heritage at Sportsman’s Park and the BetMGM Sportsbook,” Cardinals owner Michael Bidwill said in a press release.

“We look forward to collaborating with Plaza Companies and the city of Glendale to create a distinctive mixed-use business center that attracts companies, creates jobs and enhances our exceptional regional amenities.”

The District at Sportsman’s Park, Glendale is one of several major projects in the works near State Farm Stadium. The BetMGM Sportsbook is being built on the north side of the Great Lawn, while the massive VAI Resort beach-themed hotel and the Mattel Adventure Park are under construction just west of the mixed-use development site.

The Glendale City Council green-lighted the District in August 2021. Plans call for office space, restaurants, retail stores and multi-family residential units along with parking that can be used by stadium and resort visitors.

“This project will create new employment opportunities for the community, attract business and commerce to the area and will provide additional enhancements for this critically important area of Glendale,” City Manager Kevin Phelps said in the release.

“We look forward to continuing to work with Plaza Companies and the Arizona Cardinals on this project as we create a new economic engine for the community and a dynamic live, work experience in Glendale that is unrivaled in the region.”

Massive 200-acre mixed-use project proposed near Valley entertainment district

The city of Glendale is looking to transform a massive property next to its sports and entertainment district into a master-planned development with office, retail, hotel, commercial and high-density housing.Dubbed Vision 2, the development could be built on about 200 acres between Glendale Avenue and Ball park Boulevard just west of the Loop 101, according to documents submitted to the city.On May 26, Glendale's planning commission is holding a public hearing for an application to rezone about 160 acres of the property to a pl...

Dubbed Vision 2, the development could be built on about 200 acres between Glendale Avenue and Ball park Boulevard just west of the Loop 101, according to documents submitted to the city.

On May 26, Glendale's planning commission is holding a public hearing for an application to rezone about 160 acres of the property to a planned area development to allow for the mix of uses like class A office, medical services, research and development, hotels, regional shopping, restaurants and theaters, among others.

The application request was submitted by the city of Glendale on behalf of Emrland LLP, an entity connected to Ron Rovey, and Ferrantino Enterprises AZ LLC, an entity connected to Michael Ferrantino, the documents said.

It's unclear who the developer of the project will be, but the project narrative said the development partners of Vision 2 will work with stakeholders and community members throughout the development process.

"Utilizing input from all stakeholders as well as the guidelines established by this document, Vision 2 will be a model for future large-scale development project," according to the documents.

In addition, documents said a project of this scope and magnitude may develop out over a long period of time. The planned area development will guide various phases as they occur and the infrastructure will create the backbone framework for the master plan uses, the project narrative said.

The planned area development will provide opportunities for various land uses including employment and office space for various types of tenants with an emphasis on attracting corporate headquarters, documents submitted to the city said.

"The overall project concept is to create a high-energy urban-style mixed-use development revolving around a broad spectrum of employment and service opportunities," documents said. "Virtually all of the contemplated components of the proposed project are currently under-served in this western area of the city."

Overall, the PAD will provide a foundation for high intensity, pedestrian active, mixed-use and urban developments located in close proximity to Glendale's sports and entertainment district.

It's envisioned as a place for residents to visit, work, shop and live with large scale office or residential developments, spaces for small businesses and a pedestrian and bicycle-friendly environment.

The planned area development will also establish development and design standards to "foster high-quality development and maximize potential for both private and public sectors," the project narrative said.

The property itself has regional access or is in close proximity to the Loop 101 and the future Northern Parkway alignment. It's also at the hub of a regional transportation network with major arterial streets and freeways and potential future light rail lines, according to the documents.

Not far from the property, VAI Resort is currently under construction and is slated to bring more than 1,200 luxury hotel suites and rooms, a 360-degree concert stage, 13 fine dining restaurants, white sand beaches and Caribbean-blue water.

Last year, the city of Glendale also approved an agreement with Peoria-based Plaza Cos. to collaborate on a new office anchored mixed-use development. It could potentially see about 600,000 square feet of new class A office space, 60,000 square feet of retail, restaurant and entertainment space, new hotels and about 230 apartment units on 62 acres near State Farm Stadium.

ARIZONA, USA — Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray weighed in Friday on the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.

“No one should be able to force their beliefs on anyone’s body, that is not right. Sending love to our women,” Murray tweeted to his followers.

The Supreme Court decision ends nearly 50 years of federally guaranteed access to abortion and will have long-term consequences for reproductive health.

The consequences for women in Arizona now that Roe v. Wade has been overturned will undoubtedly limit their healthcare options in the state.

One analysis by the data journalism site Stacker concludes Arizona will be impacted more than any other state because of its political climate, its affected population and the average distance to an abortion clinic out-of-state, which would be 247 miles.

Arizona's quarterback still doesn't have the long-term contract extension he's seeking, but was a full-go for one of the Cardinals' final mandatory offseason workouts earlier this month.

The No. 1 overall pick of the 2019 draft, Murray has been one of the NFL's most dynamic quarterbacks in two seasons in the desert. He's already a two-time Pro Bowler and last season led the Cardinals to the playoffs for the first time since 2015.

Murray is set to earn $5.5 million this season and $29.7 million next year after his fifth-year option was picked up.

Gorman and Company is the first to receive the state housing tax credit, and plans to build more than 350 affordable units near Glendale and 67th Ave.

GLENDALE, Ariz. — The demand for affordable housing is ramping up in the Valley. State experts say Arizona is short hundreds of thousands of units and the struggle is intensifying.

One year ago, Arizona housing director Tom Simplot, said Arizona was 250,000 units short of the needs across the state.

“We now know with the influx of new residents and the escalating number grown to 270,000 units that we need across Arizona,” Simplot said. Most of the demand is in Maricopa County.

The new state housing tax credit program is being used to support developers in financing part of their project costs. It was signed into law by Gov. Doug Ducey in 2021. The legislation opens up $4 million every year for four years, which could be used to leverage up to $160 million to build affordable homes.

Gorman and Company is the first developer to receive state housing tax credits from the Arizona department of housing. They’re using it to turn an empty 13-acre lot near 67th Ave. and Glendale, into hundreds of new affordable housing units, said company president & CEO, Brian Swanton.

“It’s going to be a very high quality affordable housing development here in Glendale," Swanton said. The development will be called Centerline on Glendale, and will house more than 350 affordable units. Total development will cost more than $90 million. The company received $2 million state housing tax credit dollars for part of the project.

“It incentives private corporations who have tax liability in the state to reinvest their tax liability into affordable housing production," Swanton said. "It’s a great way to get private activity involved in solving a very complex issue which is the lack of affordable housing.”

This new workforce housing will be open to households earning at or below 60-percent of the county-wide median income. Swanton said it will target families earning less than $50,000 per year.

Swanton estimates it'll take about two years for the project to be finished because of labor and supply chain shortages. It also includes plans for a special commercial kitchen on site for up to 100 entrepreneurs and aspiring chefs to prepare and serve food out in the community.

A Mattel theme park opening in Glendale in 2023 will now include Barbie and Masters of the Universe attractions.

Planned alongside what is expected to be Arizona's largest hotel at 1,200 rooms, VAI Resort in Glendale, the Mattel Adventure Park previously announced it would include a Hot Wheels roller coaster and Thomas the Tank Engine indoor themed park.

The venue on Thursday unveiled additional plans such as a handful of Barbie attractions and other games.

What to expect

The attractions include:

The Mattel park and VAI Resort, previously called Crystal Lagoons, were originally set to open ahead of the 2023 Super Bowl at State Farm Stadium but will now open in spring 2023.

The resort announced an ownership change last month, along with plans to nearly double the number of hotel rooms it planned to initially offer.

Epic Resort Destination President Mark Cornell said he was excited to add more attractions and rides to the development.

"We have spared no expense to bring these iconic brands to life in ways that will delight visitors of all ages for years to come,” said Cornell.
