We Discover What Makes You Tick

Most individuals who retain a coach aren't necessarily seeking to find out what makes them tick but addressing this provides the key to a successful and rewarding coaching experience. Few people take the time to explore this and as a result they often wind up pushing in a direction that is incongruent with where their strengths and passions lie. They let the outside world determine how their path should look, rather than letting their inner compass guide them.

Together we unearth WHAT you truly want
In the coaching relationship we look for gaps between where you are today and where you want to be. For many, it's often difficult to articulate where they want to be or what they want to do. We will work together to unearth your ideal situation and create a strong, clear and concise action plan that will propel you forward. Most importantly, we will work to be certain that WHAT you truly want is congruent with WHO you really are to ensure that you aren't chasing after things that will ultimately feel empty and unrewarding.

 
 
Once you identify what you want, we strategize on HOW to get it.
When we begin to determine what you really want and it is in alignment with who you really are, we work together to brainstorm and strategize ways to get you there. I coach you to identify and acquire resources you need along they way. We will work together to overcome the challenges and obstacles you may encounter along the way.

WHAT MAKES THIS WORK

  • I ask powerful questions that make you think about things you never thought about and no one else ever asked.
  • I hold a genuine belief in YOU.
  • There is no agenda on my part except to fully support YOU.
  • With my gift of a keen perception, I'm able to "hear between the lines" of what is being said or not being said. I hear the important things you may not even be aware that you are saying, and bring this to your attention.
  • I offer a constant mirroring of what you are saying back to you so you can see yourself from the 'outside in'.
  • I challenge you to stretch beyond what you would normally ask of yourself.
  • I strategize with you to get "un-stuck" and work through challenges, fears and problems.
  • I help you identify potentially limiting beliefs that might be keeping you from moving forward.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

  • That we will have fun and look for ways to make your progress effortless and joyful - not add to your load.
  • That our coaching relationship and what we talk about will be completely confidential and held in the strictest confidence.
  • That you will have a completely safe place for you to be yourself - however that looks on any given day.
  • That I will be completely honest and forthright in what I say to you and how I am with you.
  • That we will always be looking for ways to "clear the decks" in your life, work and relationships by simplifying and getting rid of the things that are taking up your energy and space -- the same energy and space you will need in order to have all your goals and desires to show up
  • That our coaching time is YOURS, not mine. This is all about YOU. I will work with you on how to best use me as a powerful instrument for moving forward and having what you want in life.

How We Work Together
My coaching is done by phone. My clients call me on the same day and time each week for the first three weeks of every month (4th week of the month we are off). The calls are up to 45 minutes long and I do allow for unlimited short calls and emails in between our scheduled calls.

During our weekly calls we will review the things that went well for you in the previous week, the challenges you came up against and finally, we will end the call strategizing the actions you would like to take in the upcoming week. All the while we will continually be working to help you clarify the things you want for yourself and articulating who you truly are to be certain we are keeping you on course.

The thing to remember is that coaching is a process. The calls and our continued connection are structured to keep you in that process. While results are important, they are not the sole focus of our coaching. It is more about your evolution than the hard results. The results are a bi-product of your personal evolution within the process.
