My name is Laura Woody. I’m a certified life coach and organizational consultant. At Connections Coaching and Consulting, my approach is grounded in my beliefs that every individual possesses inherent strength, beauty, and potential and that connection can lead to healing and growth.
As a trained and licensed social worker, I fully embrace the values of the social work profession.
service
social justice
dignity and worth of the person
importance of human relationships
integrity
competence
As a Certified Co-Active Coach (CPCC), I embrace and practice the 4 cornerstones of the model. It starts with the belief that people are naturally resourceful, creative, and whole. With this core belief held, our role as coaches is to dance in this moment with our clients, focus on the whole person, and work alongside our clients (or Co-Actively) to evoke transformation. What I love so much about the Co-Active model is the way we are trained to co-create a relationship and rhythm with our clients (and really everyone), There isn't room for hierarchy here - we walk alongside one another on the journey.
My approach is built on trust, empathy, humor (let's be honest, people are funny), and genuine connection. I create a non-judgmental space (as a coach, supervisor, trainer, and consultant) where you can freely explore your thoughts, emotions, and aspirations. Together, we will identify your strengths and ways you may be holding yourself back, explore your dreams or your vision, clarify your goals, and ultimately move toward where you want to be - as an individual, team, or organization.
I'm deeply committed to your growth and success (this is why I do this work!), and I will support you every step of the way. Let's embark on this transformative journey together, uncover your true potential, and create a life that reflects your authentic self and values or a team or organization that makes a lasting impact.
