Personal Coaching
What is Coaching?
Coaching is a collaborative, pragmatic, and inspired approach to creating a fuller, more satisfying life. You, the client, come with a goal or a desire — to perform at your potential, to live more healthfully, to chart a new career path, to get un-stuck. As your coach, I will bring simple but powerful tools, targeted inquiry, reflection, focus, and strategies to help make choices and act on them to transform your life. You have the answers, and I will help you find them. I will invite, challenge, and hold you accountable in achieving your goals.
Is Coaching for You?
You are ready for coaching if you are seeking more from your career, relationship, health, or life. The strategies you have relied on aren’t working out for you. You want more. You know you could do more, be more. You have the capacity for joy but are not fully experiencing the joy of your life. You may feel stuck and can’t get started. You are ready to take action to claim the life you want for yourself.
Choices
Maybe you feel like you are always reacting to what life throws at you rather than actively choosing the life you want. As your coach, I will help you identify your core values and will invite, challenge, and support you in making choices that bring your life into alignment with those values.
Perspective
Can’t see the forest for the trees? Do you rush from one thing to another, working on a never-ending to-do list, without time to consider the Big Picture? Let me be your guide on a journey of inquiry and reflection to identify your goals and help you navigate a path toward greater fulfillment.
Joy
Feel stuck in a job that is wearing you out, a relationship that has lost its fizz, a lifestyle that is unhealthy? Use coaching to help you get back in touch with your joy and bring new energy and enthusiasm to your life.
Self
Do you spend so much time caring for others that you have gotten lost in the process? Perhaps it’s gotten to the point that you don’t even know what you want anymore. Take this opportunity to bring yourself back into focus, recognize your own needs and wants, and create your own agenda for change.
Fears
In coaching, our focus is on what is possible, on positive change. But when we dare to challenge the status quo, your fears, demons, or saboteur may rear its head. As your coach, I will help you recognize and deal with the voices that say you can’t or you’re not good enough.
Balance
We talk a lot about life balance – as if it were a static thing to achieve and then we’re done. The reality is that our priorities change over time, our goals may come into conflict, and our needs and the needs of our career or relationships vary. Through coaching, we will try to keep you moving toward the balance that feels right at a given time. We do this one piece at a time, always guided by your values, inspired by your dreams, and rooted in pragmatism.
