| What Is Coaching? |
“Don’t ask yourself what the world needs.
Ask yourself what makes you come alive, and then go and
do that. Because what the world needs is people who have
come alive.”
Harold

Coaching is a powerful interactive process that produces
exceptional results
in your:
- Career
- Business
- Life
- Finances
- Health
- Relationships
- Personal and Spiritual Development
- Organizations
As your coach I will be your non-judgmental
confidant and your ally
in transition. With our mutual commitment toward each
other, and the on-going accountability, I will help you
keep your goals uppermost in mind, rather than lost in
the busyness of life.
Coaching accelerates your progress by providing greater
focus and awareness of choice. As a result
of coaching, you can:
- Set better goals
- Take bigger, better and smarter actions
- Make better decisions
- Increase productivity
- Create a more balanced, rich and fulfilling
life
- Increase income
- Improve personal and professional relationships
- More fully use your natural strengths
- Have more sustainable energy
My job
is to
- Be completely curious about you, your dreams,
passion and values
- Help you clarify choices, create action
plans and monitor results
- Hold you accountable and keep you moving
towards your goals and dreams
- Provide sound career advice
- Be a sounding board for new ideas
- Listen without judgment, accept without
analyzing
- To tell the truth about your strengths
and where you sell yourself short
- Help you break free of the self-limiting
conversations you’ve had for years
- Challenge your thinking process and make
bold new decisions
- See your fullest potential hold & that
for you even when you doubt yourself
- Celebrate your victories and help you learn
from your setbacks
- To see you as whole, naturally creative
and resourceful!
"If you don't know where
you're going, anywhere will do. . . Choose your destinations
carefully, set your sails, find your crew, use your compass,
and venture forth to make your best future happen."
--Frederic M. Hudson |
How is Coaching Different From Therapy?
|
| Coaching is not therapy, which goes into depth about
various issues, usually dealing with the past and processing
related feelings. Coaching does not focus directly on
relieving psychological pain or treating cognitive or
emotional disorders.
Tony Grant from Sydney University has said: “Therapy
is like helping someone with a broken leg to walk again.
Coaching is helping them to run the four minute mile”.
Coaching is more action oriented and focuses primarily
on the present and future. As your coach I enable you
to determine your own “answers” through
the work done in our coaching partnership.
“Your past cannot
be changed, but you can change tomorrow by your actions
today.” --David

Personal/Life Coaching:
Take Your Personal or Professional Life to the
Next Level
|
- Life design and planning
- Relationships (couples, families, friends, co-workers,
etc.)
- Health and Self Care
- Personal and Spiritual Development
- Fun and Recreation
- Work and Career
- Financial Freedom
- Retirement/mid-life Design and Planning
Life coaching begins with an inventory of the whole, creative
and resourceful human being you have within you. Clients
also usually have roadblocks in places they no longer
even see, and we work together to identify and effectively resolvef them.
The most successful coaching is always holistic, working
with the whole person. Good coaching aims for balance
among the “parts” of one’s life, so
successful coaching cannot ignore any critical aspect
of a client’s life. For example, clients who come
for career coaching may also need direction and strategies
for enlisting the support from their loved ones to reach
their career goals, or some personal accountability
toward improving their health and self-care.

“When you are
inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project,
all your thoughts break their bounds:
Your mind transcends
limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction
and you find yourself in a new, great and wonderful world.
Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive, and
you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than
you ever dreamed yourself to be.”
-- Pantanjali
