What is Coaching?
In the area of Life and Results Coaching, Coaching might
be defined loosely as helping you to determine what area of your life is currently not producing the results you want, and
then determining how to get you those results. Our job as coaches is to support clients to cultivate, maximize and make use
of their existing skills, talents, capabilities and creativity. Individuals and businesses are then able to produce more rewarding
results in any life area. Life areas include: Family Relationships, Career, Health, Fitness,
Friends, Money, Main Relationship, Recreation /Fun, Personal Growth, Spiritual Growth, Home.
In plain English what does this mean?
Keep reading, I have the answer for you….
Are you happy? Is your life the way
you'd love for it to be? Are you happy with your income? Are you happy with your career? Do you have your dream relationship?
Are you happy with your health and fitness? Do you do fun things for recreation? If your answer to any of these is no, we
help you find what isn't working the way you'd like in that area of your life. Then we work with you to decide how you DO
want it, and help you to create the BEST life you can dream of. We hold your hand, we support you, we help you to believe
in yourself.
For many people, this means that for the first time in their lives there’s someone cheering
them on. However innocently, many of us have been taught to doubt ourselves, to doubt our ability to shine, to succeed, to
even do anything well. If you’re one of these folks, I really get it. I get how much it means to have someone
to dream with, to plan with, and to cheer you on. To hold you up when you don’t think you can make it.
Coaching benefits our clients by showing them how to get
clear about what they want. It helps you to set better goals. It assists you to make more timely and effective actions
and make better decisions. And it aids and encourages you to develop and make better use of your natural strengths.
After identifying what your goals are, and the steps you'll
need to take to get there, we support you through the victories, as well as through the obstacles, to reach your goal. Many
(coachless) people stop short. Often the reason people stop short is based on their not *really* believing they can; or not
*really* thinking they "deserve" it. If YOU reach the point where it "feels" like you can't go on, we'll still be believing
in you, we'll still be on your side, encouraging you on. How much further in your life, how much closer would you be NOW to
reaching your goals if only you'd had someone who believed in you, who would hold your hand through your fears, until you
got to the other side?
Life Coaching basically
looks at any one area of a client’s life, and what’s missing, and what you would LIKE this area to be
like, and supports you to chart a course that will bring these changes about. Then we're with you every step of the way, offering
our experience, our support, our help, to make these changes and create the best life you can have. We believe in you until
YOU can believe in yourself.
Results Coaching, as its name implies, has as its goal getting
YOU the results you want. We are BOTH life and results coaches.
Often, Results Coaching is a shorter length of time, as your goal is ONE result.
As opposed to Life Coaching, which is aiming to make specific changes in one AREA of one's life.
We help you to easily identify and remove the blocks and beliefs that get in your way, remove the old voices that
say "you can't do that" or "who do you think YOU are?" or "you don't deserve it". We
use the most effective tools available. Those include NLP, Guided Imagery, Hypnosis, and other participatory learning exercises and techniques to help you help yourself.
