How I Coach


I partner with my clients in discovery, examination and evolution. With my assistance and support, clients draw on knowledge, wisdom and intuition to answer questions about vision, purpose, direction and goals. Sometimes clients generate their own A–Ha moments, other times, my questions, feedback, advice and challenges help the client move forward. Either way, the focus is on growth and evolution.

Lasting change is achieved by going to the client's core and:
  1. understanding who they are and what is right for them, and;
  2. making the necessary adjustments, changes and shifts that will result in positive and lasting improvements and achievements.
How It Works
  • I will ask many questions.
  • I will listen, carefully and deeply.
  • I will challenge you.
  • I will encourage you.
  • I will support you.
  • I will ask about your values, and help you clarify them if necessary.
  • I will ask if your actions are aligned with your values.
  • I will probe deeper.
  • I will look for the source of frustrations and stuckness.
  • I will ask what is underneath the surface.
  • I will think about your Big Picture and share my thoughts.
  • I will let you vent — if you want to — but only for a couple minutes.
  • I will ask you to take notes and do fieldwork (assignments or experiments to be completed in-between coaching sessions).
  • I might be a bit edgy . . . depending (i.e. direct and to-the-point in a way that is kind and respectful, but maybe not what you are used to).
  • I will refer you to other professionals if your needs are beyond my expertise.
I prefer to enjoy coaching sessions and give my clients an open space to examine and explore. I thrive on focus and client progress. I will hold you accountable for what you say you will do.

Specific Areas I May Ask You About Are:
  • . . . what is your focus?
  • . . . what is your vision; is it pulling you forward; is it effortless?
  • . . . what are you here to do, and contribute?
  • . . . your service and contribution.
  • . . . what you are attracting in your life?
  • . . . what actions you are taking, or not taking?
  • . . . what are your habits, do they serve you?
  • . . . how do you talk to yourself?
  • . . . what you are learning from your successes; your failures?
  • . . . how do you view the world and those around you?
  • . . . what choices are you making; do your choices serve you?
  • . . . where are you taking responsibility, and where you are not?
