I don't tell you what to do. I ask questions that bring out the best of what you know and really make you think.

I will inquire, encourage, advise, challenge, make requests, and listen for your truth so that you remain aligned with who you are, your goals, your values, and your vision.

I am your biggest fan. I believe passionately in your potential. My focus is completely on you and what you want in life; I stand for you first and foremost, not just your goals.

As Your Coach I help you

Gain clarity to set goals that you truly want Focus better in order to produce results more quickly Get motivated to stay in action Become more self directed Achieve a life you love and want Celebrate your success

 “Tell me and I'll forget; show me and I may remember; involve me and I'll understand.” – Chinese Proverb

I Expect Your Best
We should only be working together if you are ready to do and be your best. If you are not doing your best, I will ask you to do so. If you cannot be your best at the moment, I will understand and do what I can so that you can be heard, loved, and back on your path.

I Make Specific Requests
From time to time, I will make a direct request, such as "Will you accomplish X by next week?” You may accept the request, counter-offer (e.g.: “I can’t do X, but I can do Y”) or decline (rare). I will always support you, whichever way you respond.

I Give Advice
If I am sure of the situation, and you are open to it, I will make specific suggestions on how to handle a problem or go for an opportunity. If I am not sure, I will say so. Regardless, use the best of what I say and use your own judgment.

I Am Direct
When I hear a funny tone in your voice or hear something different, I will ask you about it. Often, it is these small moments that offer us the chance to resolve something bothering you-“an issue, a fear, an uncertainty. However, I will not confront you; I will merely invite you to take a closer look.

I Give Homework
I typically ask you to determine two or three goals or actions to focus on between our calls. If I push you too much or you want to be pushed harder, just say so.

I’m Here for You
I want to hear it all. If you have a personal problem, are upset with something (even me or the coaching), are just starting to realize something big, or can't wait to share a breakthrough, you can call or e-mail me — anytime.

I Focus On You
Coaching works best when you have clear goals that are based on your true values. First, I encourage you to deeply consider what you want your life to look like. Then, identify the gaps between the way things are now and how you would like them to be. Many people struggle with this, so if you are unsure about what it is you really want to achieve, coaching is an excellent tool that can provide you with greater clarity.

I Help You Grow
Working with a sensitive and empathic coach is a healthy way to grow. Most clients hire a coach to work on specific goals, and much of the time focus on these objectives. Yet, with coaching, many clients discover new parts of themselves. Accelerated personal and professional growth is the hallmark of coaching.

I Keep You Motivated
Part of working with me as your coach is that I will ask a lot of you. Not too much, but perhaps more than you may have been asked recently. I request that you be willing to experiment with fresh approaches. I invite you to tell the absolute truth, raise your personal standards, and set higher goals. Ultimately, you need to decide what is best for you; however, the more willing you are to grow, the greater the benefits from coaching.

Come Prepared To Each Coaching Call
To get the most value out of the coaching session, come ready to think and focus to each of our calls. Be sure you are in a quiet, comfortable, favorite place where you will not be interrupted. Have your notes and worksheets with you. Taking 10-20 minutes to prep prior to the call will have a huge impact on our session.

Do Your Homework
Each week you will decide on the actions or goals you want to focus. I expect you to keep the commitments you make. I will work with you to make sure you are setting worthwhile, realistic and achievable objectives. If you know that a busy week is ahead, your homework might be as simple as thinking about a new perspective. If you have more time, you might decide to handle a big task.

Regardless, I will hold you accountable and encourage you to do your best. If you cannot keep your commitments, it is your responsibility to notify me as soon as you become aware of it.
