The Power Isn't in Assigning Blame. It's in Claiming Responsibility.

Most high-performing leaders are emotionally misaligned and don't even know it. They're exhausted, resentful, disconnected, and stuck in toxic team dynamics. Despite their intellect and ambition, they have no real framework for understanding themselves, managing their reactivity, or taking true accountability. Their emotional blind spots are silently sabotaging their leadership, their relationships, and their health.

​

As an Executive coach and emotional intelligence expert with over 25 years of experience, Teresa Quinlan created "Find Your Fault" to name what  no one else was saying: your biggest leadership problem is your unexamined emotional self.

​

Her story is not just theory, it's a mirror. She's been exactly where her clients are: triggered, blaming others, and spinning in analysis. Her framework was built through that fire, and now helps leaders everywhere transform theirs.

I didn't learn emotional intelligence from a textbook. I lived it.

Starting as a child growing up in an emotionally volatile home, my earliest instinct was self-blame. Then I shifted to blaming others. But neither brought me peace.

​

It wasn't until early adulthood, after years of emotional analysis, that I realized my power wasn't in assigning blame, but in claiming responsibility.

​

That realization became the foundation of my life's work.

​

My mission is to ignite emotionally intelligent leadership by guiding high-level executives to take radical personal responsibility for how they think, feel, and behave, transforming themselves and their teams from the inside out.

Approach

Teresa's work is:

​

  • Direct. Grounded. Unflinching. Compassionately confrontational.

  • Rooted in lived experience rather than corporate platitudes.

  • Emotionally intelligent and emotionally honest.

  • Practical, not performative.

  • Grounded in psychology, but accessible.
