Why Coaching?

It is all too easy to get swept along in the demands of life without a conscious decision to slow down, reflect, discuss, and get really clear on what is truly important.

Every coaching relationship is different and tailored to the individual, but we tend to work in these areas repeatedly:

Vision

Together we work to create a rich, compelling picture of your vision for yourself. This clarifying action helps you move forward in all other areas we work on. What are your personal values, and how do you live by them (and where might you be falling short)? What do you want?

 

Planning and Focus

Together we clarify what goals and tasks are important, and continually create and refine a plan for accomplishing those things. What are next steps, what are the roadblocks and opportunities, and how do you decide between all of those things? We also create structures to keep you accountable to the person who matters the most — you.

 

Soft Skills

Increasing the quality of your relationships with everyone in your orbit is one of the best ways to increase happiness, gain leverage in the world, and is a balm for loneliness. We role-play, experiment, and try different approaches to get you comfortable with how to move forth powerfully.

 

Meta-Thinking

It's difficult to see the entire field when you're always in the middle of it playing the game — you never have a chance to observe it from outside. The key difference is perspective. Working together, we’ll uncover how you think, what leads you to act (or drag your feet), and how to optimize for the things you want. This is something that is particularly hard to do alone — the reflection a skilled coach provides can get you through resistance and confusion much faster than you can do it yourself.

 

Whole Person

Together we zoom out and take inventory of your entire life — physical health, mental health, fitness, recreation, friends, family, money, career, personal development. And decide where we want to focus our energy on changes and improvements so you have a strong foundation to leap forward from.
