FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My coaching fees will vary depending on how often we meet and if the sessions are group or private. I will meet with a typical client three times a month. Some clients will want one, two or possibly four times a month depending on where they are in the coaching process, what their goals are and their own personality and finances. I also offer a limited number of partial scholarships.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Yes, continuing education is a requirement to keep my certifications. I enjoy it because I love to learn and I am passionate about what I do.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
You might say that it chose me. I had very physical careers, teaching/coaching gymnastics, physical education and health. I was coaching and directing my own gymnastic school when a serious injury forced me into early retirement. After years of searching for a new career and not finding a fit, I enrolled in a life coach training program. I opened the required text book and read the introduction. "That's it! This is me! This is what I have to do!" I excitedly said aloud to no one in particular. I hadn't even read into the rest of the book yet, but I knew that life coaching had to be my next career. A couple years later, I enrolled into a wellness coaching training program and added that to my credentials. Additional courses in life coaching, group coaching, small business coaching, etc. have rounded out my training.
