Life Coaching
What is Life Coaching?
Coaching is a partnership between you and the coach to work together to help you create change in your life. This change can be to achieve specific goals, grow in certain areas of your life, or increase capacity.
Can you create these changes without a coach? You definitely can!
Will you be as focused, make consistent progress, and achieve it as fast and effectively without a coach? Probably not...
The reason top athletes appoint coaches are not because they are ignorant, or incapable of performing on their own; they appoint a coach to help them focus, train and create more consistent progress in faster time.
The same applies to your life: Relationships, career planning and every other area you want to improve.
The information is out there. You can find it, and use it on your own. But lets be honest; even the latest & greatest information rarely helps us bring the change and growth we want. This is where coaching can help you start and sustain progress.
Why do coaches get clients to start and sustain progress ?
Coaches have a unbiased outside perspective that can help you see from a different perspective.
Coaches are trained to help people develop.
Bottom line: The goal of the coach is to get the client to succeed.
Are you ready for Coaching ?
You are the captain of your own ship. Master of your destiny. Like the athlete you stay responsible for your own training and success. You compete and get the medal when you win, not the coach.
When are you coaching ready?
When YOU want the change or growth. We unconsciously avoid and resist things we "have to" do, and run towards things we "want to" do. Firstly you need to determine if you really want to grow & change.
When you are open to honest feedback, and willing to do intentional self reflection.
When you are ready to commit and take the necessary action to make it happen. It does not need to be large leaps at a time. Consistency is the key.
What are the options?
When deciding to embark on a coaching journey with me, you have the following options:
1.) Open Reflective Coaching
The first session is guided by skilled questioning from the coach and then reflection form the client. This environment of questioning and reflection leads to discoveries, and the setting of priorities and goals. The rest of the coaching process is defined based on the client's individual needs and outcomes. A minimum of 6 sessions are recommended for this approach.
2.) Assessment, followed by coaching
There are quality assessments available that will give you valuable insight. Each assessment is specialized to help you discover specific elements of how you think and act. You can do the assessment with the feedback, and then follow up with coaching to help integrate the discoveries in your life. Information on a report does not bring change, application does. Coaching will help you put information into action. The assessments are great starting points for a coaching journey, but can also be done on it own, or added to a current coaching process.
3.) Workshop
A workshop is a single event interaction focused on a specific topic / theme. Workshops will focus not only on theoretical information, but also on practical application. At the end of the workshop you should have both theory, and practical application options to use the knowledge you have learned. Any workshop can be supplemented with follow-up individual or group coaching sessions.
