    Create a Life You’re Passionate About - A life makeover workbook!

    Creating a life that you are passionate about is a step-by-step process. It involves changing (making-over) what you don’t like in your life.

    This workbook aims to take you through those steps so you come to understand the blocks in your life, what motivates you, what makes you happy and what goals to set.

    You’ll also learn why and how goal setting works. Then choose action steps to achieve your goals while you plan ways to avoid any obstacles. It’s a life coach in a book!

    The material and reading is kept to a minimum as the power is in the doing and the writing when using the workbook. The power is in the seeing what needs the makeover.

    This book and what you write in it will become a powerful visual aid to pull you towards a life you’d love to live.

    A life you’re passionate about!

COACHING F.A.Q.

Who works with a coach?

People of all ages and walks of life find coaching beneficial. Professionals, business owners, parents, youth, men, women, entrepreneurs and people who desire change are some of the people who work with a coach. I typically work with busy women who are tired, stressed and overwhelmed with all they must get done in their personal or professional life. Coaching enables these women to gain balance, fulfilment, happiness and the success they deserve. Regardless of their profession or personal circumstances all my clients are successful, resourceful and intelligent individuals that are aiming to get more out of life. I coach globally and accept English-speaking clients from any country.

Is coaching the same as therapy or mentoring?

Coaching is not therapy, counseling or psychology, which deal with past events and how they relate to your thoughts and feelings in the present. Coaching focuses on the present and future and is oriented towards the client setting goals so as to move forward. Coaching is not consulting or mentoring in that the coach is not an expert or specialist in the clients life and therefore does not give the client recommendations or solutions for problems but rather works with the client in drawing on their own knowledge and wisdom to find the solutions that work for them. The coach does not have the answers but has the questions that allow the client to find their own answers.

I do mentor new coaches who require that service.

What benefits might I experience working with a coach?

Anything is possible in a coaching relationship and some people experience: A more fulfilled, happier life. More time and productivity. More balance and less stress. Reaching goals faster. What factors are needed for coaching to be successful? Factors needed for coaching to be successful are that: The client realizes that a gap exists between where they are in life and where they want to be. The client is prepared to learn, grow and take action to help close the gap. If you recognize those two factors in yourself then you are ready to work with a coach who will help you develop the right strategies and plan of action to achieve your goals.

Can I try before I buy?

I offer a free no obligation 30 minute coaching chat session for you to further understand coaching, how it works, its benefits and if it is for you. Please contact me to arrange your free session.

How do I get the most from my coaching?

Come to each coaching session prepared. (I will provide you with a Coaching Preparation Form for your use before each session). Be clear on what you want. (Coaching works best when you know what you want and have clear goals. Sometimes we know we want change but are not sure of the goals. Coaching can help and there are many techniques and tools we can use to work out your ideas, goals and values). Be prepared to learn and grow. Be willing and committed. (Your personal growth will be a result of how much you are prepared to try new things and how far you are prepared to reach). At each session you will decide on the action you will take for the coming week. I will hold you accountable for the commitments you make at previous sessions and expect you to live up to your commitments.

How is coaching delivered?

I coach via the telephone, which my clients love, because it saves them time and money, as they don’t have to travel to an appointment. Clients tell me they feel more relaxed as they are in the comfort of their own home or office and being free of distractions are better able to focus on their sessions.

How do I make sure my coaching experience is a satisfactory one?

Please help me to make you a satisfied client. Let me know if I ever say or do something that upsets you or makes you feel uncomfortable. We can then resolve the issue and return to our coaching session.

Do you follow a code of ethics?

I follow the International Association of Coaches (IAC) and the International Coach Federation (ICF) codes of ethics. Please refer to their Web sites for further details or contact me for a hard copy. www.certifiedcoach.org (IAC) www.internationalcoachfederation.org (ICF)

Will you keep our conversations confidential?

Successful coaching requires us to have a trusting partnership. It is unethical to discuss a client’s business with anyone. Our conversations will remain as confidential as is legally possible.
