- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
When you are ready to make positive change in your life, partnering with a life coach can not only help you get unstuck, but also make your dreams become reality. When choosing a coach, it is important to have a consultation to find out if the coach is the right one for you. Ask about what coaching is and how the coach works with you. See how the coach questions you. Look for International Coach Federation Certified coaches. They must adhere to the highest coaching standards. The coach with a learned "tool belt" can be most effective. Coaching is an alliance. Just like a sports coach, she/he will help you find the best in you and cheer you on. This needs to be someone who understands your challenges. If you follow these guidelines, you will select the best partner for your journey.
- What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
As a teen, I remember that I loved to reinvent myself. I would travel on weekend conclavettes with my youth group and meet new people. I figured, they don't know me, I can be who I want to be and try it out. Adulthood sometimes made me forget that thought. I always enjoyed the theater, so for 11 years I performed and did stage managing with a community theater. Not liking to do things without my 3 kids, at least one was in almost every show I did. Theater made me feel alive. I loved being a triple threat. The cast and crew camaraderie was such a blast. One of the funniest times was when we found a rubber chicken backstage. The bouncy bird led to some slapstick comedic moments! It's simply great to step outside of my comfort box and pursue my passions. One of the biggest steps I took was to pursue my coaching certification. With 500 hours of training ahead, there was many an opportunity to be stretched; giving presentations, volunteering for leadership roles and coaching my peers. The president of the coaching school, Bruce Schneider, asked us what was the most important factor holding us back. I learned it was fear. Of course, but what was I afraid of? The daughter who was different? Presenting my true who to others? How was I to cope with the challenges in my life? Becoming a coach truly changed my life. I stopped always being stuck in the worry. My lifelong practice of yoga became enhanced by really understanding what it means to live in the moment. Striving to live in the moment and empowering others to do the same is a big part of a coachs work. What does that mean? Simply being present. Experience what is going on right now. Letting go of the doing and just being. Do you wish you felt present? Does living with ADHD make you feel restless? How can you get your thoughts to turn into actions that become results? I can help. My journey has led me to be passionate about helping you make your best journey. It is possible for you to create a life that is joyful and fulfilling no matter what the roadblocks seem to be. By learning to shift limiting perceptions, you open the door to endless possibility. Together, we fashion the life you long to lead.
