What is a life and business coach?

As a life and business coach, I empower you to set goals and establish accountability for personal and business success. I guide you as you articulate your aspirations, clarify the choices before you and create action plans to achieve your goals. You set the agenda, and I serve as an objective sounding board to help keep you focused and on track. I help you break through old barriers and develop new practices so you can reach your desired goals.

In contrast to consulting, as a coach, I do not give you advice. Instead, I ask powerful questions to draw out the answers that are inherent in you.

Who Comes to Coaching?

My clients come to coaching because they want to change something in their lives or business and they want help along the way. By hiring me as their coach, they are committed to living their lives to the fullest.

What Happens in Coaching?

Before you can go anywhere, you have to know where you are starting. I will send you forms to help you clarify and help me understand what you want and need out of coaching.

Following this, we will start our regular sessions (one to four sessions/month) where I will ask you questions and lead you through exercises related to your goals. By the end of each session, we will develop a homework assignment to give you a clear sense of what to focus on in preparation for our next session. I'm also available for email check-ins in between sessions. If you truly commit to the process, you will find that the real benefits of coaching show up between the sessions.

What is Your Coaching Style?

As a coach, it is my mission to create a safe and respectful environment in which my clients feel both supported and challenged as they work towards their goals.  My coaching style has been described as warm, direct, and fun. I push my clients out of their comfort zones but not beyond their limits.  I am there to celebrate their successes and to support them when they stumble. I also love to laugh and believe that humor is necessary on the road to success.

What Can I Expect From Coaching?

Although the coaching experience is different for everyone, my clients report common outcomes. As a result of coaching, my clients report that they are better able to effect change and accomplish goals. In addition, my clients enjoy increased self-esteem, improved communication skills, enhanced relationships, better work/life balance and less stress. They are better able to make decisions and navigate the daily demands of their jobs and home lives. They have a clearer sense of what is important to them and how they want to live their lives. They feel better physically, more connected spiritually, and are finally moving forward towards definitive goals.

What are your Coaching Fees?

Coaching services can be customized to best support your needs, and the cost varies directly with the amount of time you request.

I am a very well-trained (in the top 10% of coaches worldwide), experienced coach with a history of helping my clients create great results. I guarantee you will find me worth the investment.

One-on-one coaching services start from as little as $400 for a set of 3 phone sessions and $600 for a set of 3 in-person sessions. These packages last the average person 4 to 6 weeks. (I also offer group programs that greatly reduce the monthly costs of working with me. Please see below for upcoming group programs.)

I don't coach with a stop watch. Unlike most coaches, I do not book clients back-to-back, so I don't have to end a coaching call until we are truly finished discussing what is important to you.

I am so confident that you will find value in the coaching, that I provide a money back guarantee and require no contracts. But I suggest clients make a mental commitment, to themselves, for at least 3 months of coaching. Most clients choose to continue in their coaching relationship for between 8 months to 2 years, simply because of the benefits they realize in their lives.

If you work for a company or organization, you may want to check if they reimburse you for executive coaching and if you work for yourself, executive coaching is tax-deductible.
