What Does It Mean to Get Coaching?

This Tuesday marks the three month anniversary of when I first put myself out there as a life transformation coach. The shift has been nothing short of transformational for me too.

I’ve long felt that I had the tools, talent, knowledge and desire to helps lots of people, but it was always a struggle to engage the way I wanted too in between all the other stuff I had to do for money. But now I can focus all my energy here!

For those who are interested, I want to share a little more about what working with me as a coach could entail.

A lot of us have problems we’re trying to work through in life. This could be a bigger goal or vision for our lives that we want to attain, digging ourselves out from a frustrating place, or even just getting to a place of satisfaction with where we currently are.

But we’re held back, both by the standard needs and expectations that come with life (I.e. going to work, paying bills, addressing the needs of others around us), and our own willingness or belief that the alternatives are possible.

Much of what happens in coaching is conversations to uncover these subconscious beliefs. We’ve spent so long just assuming they're true that thinking otherwise can be tricky.

It can take some digging and thoughtful questions to get to the heart of it, but uncovering the nature and origins of our subconscious beliefs can be incredibly illuminating.

Once we catch what these subconscious beliefs are, then we can make an action plan to challenge them, bit-by-bit.

Much of what happens in this stage of coaching is sharing my own experience and expertise to develop a plan together and then help you keep on track with the plan, both to challenge your comfort zone and also to acknowledge your gains (because they can be too easy to forget!)

If you’re interested in starting coaching, I’ve got two more spots available right now. I’m going to raise my rates in the New Year but if you at least sign up before then, I’m happy to offer you my 2021 rate. If you’d like to know more or want to set up a free introductory appointment, I would love to talk to you! You can schedule it here.

I’m also hosting a mini workshop / discussion on Fixed vs Growth Mindset via Zoom on Thursday, December 16, at 1 p.m. PST. I’d love to have you join! The link to sign up is here.
