Frequently Asked Questions
Many people don’t fully understand or appreciate the value of consulting a certified, professional coach. Misconceptions surround coaching, and the true essence of why it is such an incredibly potent tool is not always immediately apparent.
As a skilled and passionate Co-active Coach, I always aim to be clear and concise about what I do, how I do it, why I do it and how it will ultimately benefit, enrich and empower my clients. This builds trust and rapport.
Coaching is a process that empowers and inspires people to grow and thrive personally and professionally. Coaching facilitates enhanced collaboration and communication, clearer and wiser decision making, resilience and self-reliance, self-belief, and increased motivation.
Coaching can give you the skills and tools to create a quiet, calm, and safe space where you can use this extraordinarily beneficial “gift” of time and clarity of thought to forge a new way of thinking, doing and being. These shifts, whether significant or subtle, can help you find purpose, joy and fulfillment in both your personal and professional lives.
Coaching is a partnership to help people make the changes they want in their life, whatever that may look like for the client. We are in an equal partnership and as a coach I will encourage you to take the considered and carefully thought through actions you wish to take. I am here to support you to enhance your life.
The difference between coaching and other modalities is that the coach assumes the person is whole and capable of making the right decisions themselves.
I approach coaching with honesty and empathy, providing my clients with a non-judgemental ally to support them in becoming the best version of themselves they want to be.
At the start of every 1h session we’ll gain clarity, clear the mind, and establish a calm and safe space to think. We’ll reflect on and evaluate what was revealed in our previous session, what has happened in your life in the interim and how we can utilise this information going forward. Each new session is a chance for you to introduce a new topic which you’re seeking guidance with. I’ll prompt you with questions and assist you in thinking things through in a logical, balanced, and peaceful, yet focused way.
At the start of our coaching journey, we’ll decide on a way forward based on an individualised coaching plan targeting your specific needs and goals. My intention is to assist you with a clear, and achievable way out of the fog. Although each person’s journey is unique, in most instances we’ll work at least two to three months together.
I will use my skills, expertise, and experience as a certified Transformational and Co-Active Coach (for both personal and business coaching NZ based but servicing clients worldwide) to hold you accountable, support you in your journey towards change and transformation and ultimately be the architect of your own success. Assisting you to continuously learn new skills, move forward and find true joy will help you achieve the success you’ve always dreamed of. Think of me as your compass in your pursuit of self-actualisation.
