WHAT IS COACHING?
So, what actually is coaching?
The philosophy underpinning coaching is that everyone is full of energy, wisdom, ability, and genius. And this absolutely includes you! Sometimes we humans struggle to access ourselves, and whilst trying to thrive in this life, we form thought connections, attitudes, and behaviors that take us away from our true selves and values. This can leave us feeling a bit stuck or with a blind spot limiting us on our search for happiness and deeper meaning in our lives.
Partnering with the right coach means you have a supportive space to help you uncover your wisdom. The coach is not there to give you the answers, but to partner with you so you can achieve clarity on your goals and how to achieve them.
Coaching is ultimately about creating shifts in perspective, thinking, and behaviour. It is a process that enables you to flex your brain muscle to become more aware and adaptable no matter what comes your way in life.
What happens in a coaching session with me?
In a coaching session, we will focus on change through increased self-awareness and exploring various avenues of choice. You will be supported to work on solutions to current challenges and take action toward your desired future. Each session will be directed by you. You are the creator and artist of your life, and such is also true in the session. You can discuss any topic you would like; work, personal, emotional, practical, spiritual. We will begin at your current point, go on your unique journey of discovery, and arrive at an action-based plan that steers you toward your goal(s).
In each session, we will discuss a singular topic. This ensures we give space to each valued topic bubbling in your thoughts. Each session can be a unique exploration, or we can explore a singular topic across a series of sessions. It might be that you are unsure which topic to bring to a session. This is perfectly understandable and OK. We can discuss this together and discover the best place for us to start.
What is my role as the coach?
I will use my education and coaching resources so you can realise your potential. My role is to open doors for your deeper discovery to enable you to take control of your life. My main aim throughout our relationship will be to generate shifts, supporting you to move forward and create change as is best for you.
The focus of coaching is moving forward.
The past can be a helpful growth tool, but it does not define, dictate, or predict your future. In coaching, we may touch on the past, but only with how it affects your present and how referencing it can impact your present and future.
