Alec Borenstein Quick Facts
Coach Alec has always had a way of understanding other people’s dilemmas, empathizing with them, and crafting workable solutions to ensure successful outcomes. From a very young age, Alec’s friends came to him to explore their most personal issues as he was able to listen and get to the root of their issues almost immediately. Many of his friends still come to him for counsel.
In college, Alec won the Columbia University Public Speaking award in both his junior and senior years for his lectures on divorce and the Quarterlife Crisis. After working in the publishing industry for a couple of years, Alec thought his future was in law and he moved from New York to Los Angeles to attend Loyola Law School. Alec eventually became the Chief Articles Editor for the Loyola Law Review and managed over 20 professors and 50 law students while they produced the Law Review’s 40th Volume.
While in Los Angeles, Alec was lucky enough to meet his wonderful wife Lea. After passing the New York and New Jersey bar exams, Alec brought Lea back to New York to be closer to family.
Like so many of his clients, Alec realized the path that led him to law was not of his choosing. Alec knew that he had a gift for helping others achieve their own dreams, and it was for that reaso Alec enrolled in a life-coaching program at iPEC Coaching.
In March of 2009, Alec gained his certification from iPEC, and founded his Coaching Practice. As of November 1, 2011, Alec has been working full time as a development coach and motivational speaker.
Alec has always felt that his greatness lies in helping others in similar circumstances achieve their greatness. To that end, Alec’s mission is to help his clients clear the self-chatter that can prevent success and then forge a path that serves them.

You Can Enjoy That Holiday Party!
It’s that time of year again. Time for the barrage of holiday parties. There are the nice, small intimate gatherings. We like those, right? And then there are the large, “I don’t know anyone here” parties that make us nervous. We check our phones to look like we are doing something, to hide the fact that we wish we could be anywhere but here. Social anxiety. Unless you’re the president of the United States, you have it. Some of us seem to be great at handling it but most of us have it in one way or another.

A New Definition of Happiness
THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS Happiness. It’s a word we hear about all the time. It’s something that we work for, that we work to achieve. Yet day by day we seem no closer to attaining it. Happiness eludes us. Yes, we’ve had moments when we felt happy. Perhaps it was a wedding. Or a birth of a child. Or it was that other night, when we were hanging out with friends, or spending time with family. In those moments, we felt happy, truly, deeply happy. Transcendent almost. And then it fades. Darkness ensues. The happiness is gone. In its place will often be a vacuum.
