“Coaching is a co-creative relationship which allows a client to find their inner power and use their unique strengths to propel them toward their goals.”- Chuck Franks
Coaching can help you reach your goals faster, saving you time, money and energy. Everyone wants more of what works in their life and less of what doesn’t—and life coaches specialize in accelerating this process.
“Coaching has allowed me to walk through a severe change in my life. In the end I know that with time I may have been able to do this on my own but to have my voice heard and to direct my focus has allowed me to reach my goals in a shorter amount of time.” -Ford Kistler
Why Coaching?
I’ve been a coach my entire life. My training as a counselor gave me tools to work with even before I knew that “coaching” was what I was doing.
My first love was reality therapy, which focuses on helping clients face the truth and then do something about it. I get excited when a client has an “A-Ha!” moment, and they suddenly see their world from a different angle. It drives and excites me. From there, I work with my clients to define and plan toward their goals in creating the life they truly want.
Executive Life Coach
I call myself an Executive Life Coach because I believe we are all our own CEOs of our lives. It represents how I view life and how I work with clients.
The question then becomes: Would you fire yourself or give yourself a raise?
If you don’t deserve a raise then it is time to take action. Change needs to happen. That is where working with me comes into play. I resonate and am grounded in the Appreciative Inquiry philosophy, with an emphasis on relationship enhancement.
The truth is we are all in relationship with everyone, your boss, your significant other, your children, your clients, your neighbors, and the environment. By focusing on improving those relationships your level of satisfaction will increase. Who doesn’t want to be happier?
“I wanted to say thank you so much for all of your help. Over the last several months working with you, I have just begun to realize how much I am actually capable of. Since December you have helped me isolate my goals, focus on what was important, and have re-energized me. My business has gone from moderately successful to being one of the top performing departments in my district. The month following our last session, I was promoted to the largest club in the city and one step closer to moving up to a district level position.”-Tom Peterson
