I thought coaching was going to be a version of cheerleading; an amassing of self-help knowledge, and an accountability framework that held my feet to the fire. It can be that, if that\u2019s what you want, but that\u2019s not the essence of it.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Your coach does the heavy lifting at first, helping to spot what lies beneath the surface, teaching you the tools, cleaning up what has blocked you in the past. As you become more practiced, then you can coach yourself. I’m there to help you navigate new thorny things and blocks that keep getting in the way.\u00a0<\/p>

We can’t always see ourselves and that holds us back. A coach is in your corner, without an agenda, without advice. We believe the answers are in you, and we are trained, with specific tools, to help you find those answers.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

One of the reasons I became a life coach is because coaching rattled my brain and made me think of life in a completely different way — a way that saved me, from me \u2013 if that makes any sense.<\/p>

\u00a0Like many people, I get anxious. Sometimes it’s overwhelming.\u00a0On my own, my way of managing my feelings was by doing things like walking, affirmations, and meditation, but those things only got me so far.\u00a0 I knew I needed to change, but I didn’t know how.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Enter Martha Beck, my mentor. I\u2019ve never been coached personally by Martha herself, but I have been coached by Martha Beck Master Coaches, Life Coaches, and coaches in training. It blew my mind. Literally. I needed it to get blown because I needed a new way to be in the world.<\/p>

The core of it is that it changes you a very profound way. It makes you see yourself, your self-induced barriers, and the world in a different way. It shows you how to be different, do stuff differently so you\u2019ll get different results.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

There was a time when, if you said you were a life coach, people automatically asked for what sport. Since then, life coaches have been searching for a new handle that made more sense. But there doesn’t seem to be an optimal name for what we do. So while some continue to search for a better moniker, the rest of us are embracing the term Life Coach. Life coaches focus on different things. I focus on careers and entrepreneurship.<\/p>

I\u2019ll leave you with one last thought, and it\u2019s a big one — while pain can be part of life, suffering is optional. It\u2019s likely that the world is going to deal you blows, hand you a crap-sandwich, send you into some sort of trough. There are ways to minimize the suffering. Coaching is one of them. Maybe with me. Maybe with someone else. Or maybe there\u2019s another solution. The important thing to know is that there\u2019s a way – a way to get unstuck and move forward in life. And you don’t have to do it alone.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
