How It All Works:
Lisa's Career and Life Coaching FAQs
What is coaching? My coaching is a rewarding way to get the most out of your life and career. Often clients begin working with me while in career transition.
How does it work? The base coaching is three or four 40-60 minute sessions per month. This is supplemented by email coaching at no extra charge, plus the occasional "power coaching call" (5 minutes) as required. You take on as much homework/homeplay as you choose, and most of the learning/growth/action/results happen between the calls.
I'm not interested in replacing what you would do on your own. I want to add to what you would do on your own.
Do you have any specialties? I specialize in career changes, major life transitions, retirement design and planning, and moving new business ideas into action, but also enjoy working with people to design their ideal lives.
What would we talk about in a session? Sessions may include topics such as:
- Career discovery and development
- Clarifying your personal and professional goals
- Getting clear on your "true loves", values, interests and favorite skills
- Brainstorming solutions
- Creating action plans
- Identifying and removing any roadblocks stopping your progress
- Maintaining a healthy lifestyle during this transitional time
- Enjoying the process of creating your exceptional life
- Work and Life balance

I'm thinking of changing careers. Can you help with job search? For career "transitioners" we may also focus on matters such as:
- Resume and cover letter writing
- Job interview skills
- Labor market research
- Salary negotiations
- Advancement or promotion
Along the way we will set short and long term goals to keep you moving towards your exceptional life.

"I spent a lot of time asking myself what I really wanted to do with the rest of my life. After all, I hadn't thought about those kinds of big issues since college, a decade earlier.
This was the first area where Lisa really helped me. I had taken "What Color Is Your Parachute"-type tests before and alway felt frustrated by the results. I'd be left with a list of potential jobs, but I had no idea whether they were really right for me. Lisa helped me draft a description of my ideal job. It's amazing how closely my new job resembles that description. . . I don't think I'll ever undertake another job search without Lisa by my side". |
How long would we work together? Some people are done in 3 months, and others are looking for 1-2 year partnerships. I've worked with one client for over three years. We'll normally start with a 3-6 month time frame. I simply suggest my clients stay with me as long as they love the coaching, and the results!
What if I feel done before then? If at some point during the coaching you're not getting value, we'll both know it. You may cease coaching at the end of any four week cycle, and get a full refund for the unused portion. You would then be charged at the normal monthly rate for the coaching you have used , rather than the discounted rate.

Do we meet by phone or in person? It depends. . If you live the Eugene, Oregon area you are welcome to work with me in person or by phone. If you are out of the area we meet by phone. Working by phone really works! I do pick up on subtle nuances in your voice. We both tend to be more focused without visual distractions. You spend less time traveling. We optimize our time together.
Is it confidential? All of our communications will remain strictly confidential unless I have your express consent. The exception being that I may share a situation from your coaching as an analogy with other life coaching professionals, in another client’s session, in a newsletter or seminar. Rest assured that I will not use your name nor provide identifying information.
What's your cancellation policy? You may choose to schedule either a regular time that is the same each week, or you may choose to schedule your next session at the end of each coaching call. Either way, once each week is scheduled it may be difficult to find an open time slot. If you need to reschedule, I need at least 24 hours notice otherwise that session will be deducted from your monthly total. In case of an emergency, we will do our best to make up the call by email, fax and brief phone support.
Since coaching is a monthly value rather than a “per session” value, missed sessions for which we cannot find a make-up time do not accumulate into the next month.
What's the next step to working with you? If you're ready to make some big, exciting changes to your life or business, and are interested in working with me, then contact me for a coaching consult.
