About Rande Howell

Rande Howell is a performance psychology coach (and former likened therapist) with over 30 years of experience guiding high-achieving professionals to cultivate emotional self-mastery.

His approach integrates emotional intelligence, mindfulness, and a rigorous understanding of how biology shapes thought, empowering clients to break free from fear-based, self-limiting patterns and operate from a resilient, empowered state of mind. Rather than managing outcomes, Howell trains professionals to manage the mind they bring to high-stress, measurable situations—delivering lasting results through a systematic pathway of change.

At the heart of his method lies a step-by-step process rooted in emotional regulation—from breath and muscle tension awareness to taking apart the historical narrative of the self—combined with mindfulness practices that separate identity from reactive thoughts and beliefs.

This foundation supports the emergence of an Empowered Mind, aligned with the core virtues of discipline, courage, compassion, and impartiality, enabling professionals to respond to challenges with clarity and strength. These emotional programs are consistent with the archetypes of Ruler, Warrior, Caregiver, and Sage found in Carl Young's work.

He is also a student of his own work. Growing up in in a chaotic family environment where both parents were severely alcoholic and deeply mentally ill, he learned how to heal his traumatic past and transform his into the human being he is today. Out of that experience, he began to teach others how he had, against all odds, created an empowered life. This freedom, this peace beyond all understanding, is within the grasp of everyone.

He is the author of four books and lives in the beautiful North Carolina countryside with his wife, Delores, and his pets. He is the father of two amazing grown children and three beloved grandchildren.

Unlocking Your Empowered Mind: A Pathway to Self-Mastery and High Performance

The Problem with Traditional Self-Development. Most personal development programs lean heavily on intellectual frameworks and habit-building through repetition. While they may feel effective initially, these approaches often collapse under real stress—when you most need them—because they fail to integrate at a deeper, biological level.

Your Mind at the Moment Matters. The critical question is: What mind are you bringing to each moment? High-stakes situations demand mental and emotional systems designed not just to survive—but to thrive.

Who This Is For? This is for people who are seeking a new level to their personal growth. And sense that there is more they can learn. That includes high-performing professionals facing measurable challenges—not abstract goals. Whether it’s executing under pressure, leading through change, or delivering consistently under uncertainty, you need real-world mental tools that are dependable when it counts.

A Systematic Path to Resilience and Purpose

Over the years, this structured, step-by-step framework has been created—one that supports both high-stress resilience and discovery of deeper purpose.

Emotional Regulation

Learn to consciously modulate emotional intensity before it hijacks your thinking. This isn't about suppression—it’s about mastering the biological mechanisms of fear and reactivity to create mental clarity. Self-mastery starts with emotional regulation of your body with your breath.

Mindfulness

Mindfulness opens the door of the mind, enabling you to step back out of limiting thoughts and beliefs. As a tool, it empowers you to distinguish your true Self from habitual mental narratives, supporting intentional choice—not reaction. It is an essential tool for the construction of an empowered Self.

Inherent Worth

Everything you do stems from a place of belonging and value. Rediscover and reclaim your inherent worth—the core ground from which you can genuinely lead and serve. It is essential to reconnect to the core of your being. It is here you find Unbroken Wholeness.

Historical Dialogue

Emotionally based Life Patterns and habits created in the past shape how you react today. This module sheds light on those survival-based habits. By shining awareness into these patterns, you begin to see they’re not you—and you can choose a new way to respond.

Empowered Mind

Rooted in the pillars of discipline, courage, compassion, and impartiality, this work cultivates your heroic potential - what you were born to be. It also explores forgiveness—a powerful act of reclaiming what you have unconsciously surrendered to others.

Engaging Internal Struggle Differently

With an empowered mind, life’s inevitable struggles become opportunities—not triggers. You learn to meet challenges from a place of agency rather than fear. Once these six foundational stages are established, optional advanced branches are available to deepen your inner work—tailored to those who are committed to sustained growth.
