WI, USShift your INTERNAL experience and create a bigger EXTERNAL impact. Now, everything gets easier—teamwork, leadership, productivity, and life itself.
Tina Hallis, Ph.D., is a thought shifter, speaker, and founder of The Positive Edge. She is certified in Positive Psychology through the WholeBeing Institute, trained in Positive Intelligence, experienced with Internal Family Systems, an Authorized Partner for Everything DiSC®, and author of Sharpen Your Positive Edge: Shifting Your Thoughts for More Positivity & Success.
For almost 20 years, Tina worked as a scientist in biotech—until discovering positive psychology in 2011. This science of thriving transformed her life, and she began studying, teaching, and living its principles.
Life then brought a new chapter. Working with cancer patients using a metabolic healing approach, Tina saw how deeply our thoughts and emotions influence our health and outcomes. Positive psychology was powerful—but sometimes, it wasn’t enough.
She explored several modalities—until she found a game-changer: Internal Family Systems (IFS). This framework offered a whole new lens to understand our inner world, reactions, and patterns, unlocking profound self-awareness and transformation.
Today, Tina takes her talks on resilience, collaboration, and workplace culture to the next level by weaving in the deep insights from IFS. With impactful stories, interactive reflections, and actionable tools, she helps audiences shift their internal experience to create a bigger external impact. Now, everything gets easier—teamwork, leadership, productivity, and life itself.
