What is life coaching?
Great question! After all, life goes on each day, with or without help from a coach. But what a coach can do is help you shape the life that is given to you.
Life coaching is the most powerful and efficient way I’ve found to create lasting, meaningful change and live an authentic life.
Life coaching can help you bring your vision to life.
A life of integrity
My definition of integrity is that what I say, do, and believe are consistent. For example, if I say I value time with my friends but never actually make time for them, I am out of integrity. Being out of integrity can show up in many ways such as anxiety, sadness, irritability, poor health, a sense of unease or restlessness, or feeling stuck. My approach to coaching is about creating a life of integrity – one full of mindfulness, peace, intention, joy.
What happens during life coaching?
The first step is a free consultation so you can ask questions and get answers. If we choose to work together, you’ll begin coaching. Coaching takes place by phone so there are no geographical limitations, and clients enjoy the time-saving and green benefits of not having to drive, park, etc. for appointments. We will work together to come up with a schedule and frequency that is right for you.
Coaching involves these general areas of focus, and often they happen simultaneously:
Discovery – I have tools to share that will help you complete a whole-life assessment, choose outcomes, decide on our focus.
Action – I support you in setting direction for each session, taking steps in between sessions, and making changes that have immediate and meaningful impact in your life.
Reflection – Through the use of powerful questions, you’ll have the opportunity to become more conscious of what you value and believe, where your passions want to lead you, and becoming more mindful in your day to day life. A coach’s job is to gently ask the hard questions.
Inspiration - How often are you truly, deeply listened to in the course of your day? Offered unbiased and unconditional support, honesty, and encouragement? Held accountable for following through?A coach is a powerful ally as you start living your vision.
If my approach to coaching sounds like something you’ve been seeking, please call or email today for your free consultation. There’s no obligation, and confidentiality is guaranteed.
