What to Expect

We begin with a discovery call to get to know each other - and I learn about your overarching goals and challenges. 

We agree on our process and relationship. We set number of sessions and you choose the topics and the desired outcome for each  session. The topics may not always seem to relate directly to the overarching goal, but breakthroughs that lead to awareness, growth and change in one area of life inevitably lead to improvement in other targeted and untargeted areas. We regularly check in on the overarching goals. You make progress while enhancing your sense of wellbeing, increased awareness, freedom and play. As an experienced consultant, I may take off my coach hat (with prior mutual agreement only) and make recommendations.

I facilitate your discovery process through inquiry and observation. I interrupt sometimes to get clarity, reflect my observations and perceptions back to you, or to invite you to explore with curiosity. I see with a wide lens of curiosity and possibility – making no assumptions. I am intuitive. 

As your partner, I am interested in your concerns, desires, dreams, challenges, creative urges, and perspectives, in all areas of your life. I “hold space" with my full presence, creating a safe space for you to explore out loud. I reflect back to you the fruits of my deep listening which may shine light for you to see what you have not previously seen, or understand something more deeply. Before we end each session, you share your takeaway insights and create and commit to actions to move you in the direction of your goals.

In business scenarios we may work with an assessment as a valuable tool for initiating the process. While we tailor a framework to the specific goals and challenges at play, individual team members would engage in the coaching process with confidentiality in place -- having agreed in advance on the types of information that will be shared for the greater good of the business goals. Similarly, for companies that offer coaching to their employees as a differentiating perk, advance confidentiality parameters are agreed upon in advance.
