What is Coaching?
Coaching is a powerful relationship designed to help you make positive,
purposeful changes in your life and work.
It will help you:
- gain more clarity about your values, goals, purpose.
- define and achieve your personal and professional goals and dreams
more quickly and with more ease.
- tap into the most creative and resourceful parts of yourself to
learn new and different ways to accomplish your life's desires.
- overcome blocks, fears, or old patterns that have kept you from
reaching your full
potential.
Why Is Coaching A Vital Investment?
We all crave objectivity. You can turn to friends, but often, regardless
of how well meaning, they sugar coat their opinions - if they even still listen
to you (have you spent so much time hashing and re-hashing the same issue with
them that
they now tune you out??). Often, their goal is to help you feel better in
the short term, not to listen and respond objectively.
You can turn to co-workers or your boss. But, do you feel completely free
to fully express your feelings here? Your boss may not understand or may
have ulterior motives.
You can try to be objective for yourself. But, it is difficult to be objective about our own
lives. You get
so used to looking at a situation with the same lens you are unable to adjust
your view. You question why you are unable to make better choices for
yourself. How much time have you wasted turning the same thoughts
and solutions over in your mind, obsessing, worrying, feeling frustrated?
When you hire me, you get honest, direct feedback and answers
to questions regarding who you are, and why you do the things you do. You are
able to clear out what’s not working, so you can make room for what you
really want. You get a fresh perspective and a new way of thinking. I do
not sugar coat and I hold you accountable for actions that take you towards the changes you desire.
How Does Coaching Work?
Coaching is a partnership between client and coach. It is not counseling.
We will not delve into why you make the choices that you make by
looking backwards. Instead, you will focus on making new choices as you
create your future path powerfully.
We will schedule one
45 minute session per week. Generally, sessions will occur via the phone
so can be conducted from anywhere for your convenience. If you prefer
some in person meetings, we can work out the details together.
You, as the client set the agenda for each week and determine what you would
like to get from each session. Together we work to make it happen.
Did You Know That Your Coaching Fee May Be Tax Deductible?
In the U.S.A., expenses of continuing education undertaken to maintain and
improve business and professional skills may be tax-deductible. (Treas. Reg.
1-162-5. Coughlin vs. Commissioner, 203F 2d 307.) Your tax consultant can
provide you with further information.
