“…a path to greater personal and professional fulfillment”
What is Coaching?
We all have goals we want to reach, challenges we’re striving to overcome and times when we feel stuck. Partnering with a coach can change your life, setting you on a path to greater personal and professional fulfillment.
“ICF defines coaching as partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential. The process of coaching often unlocks previously untapped sources of imagination, productivity and leadership.”
Working with a coach is like having a thought partner to bounce all of your ideas off of. Our minds can get cluttered, with big dreams and sometimes even bigger blind spots, it can be hard at times to see what’s right under your nose. And that in a way is what guides the coaching relationship, the idea that YOU know more about your own life than your coach does. A coach is not a mentor or consultant, (and definitely not a therapist!) but rather, a partner who knows how to listen, and ask the right questions at the right times to help you find your own answers.
How does it work?
After having your initial Chemistry Call, you and your Coach will set an overarching agreement for the relationship. This agreement covers, but is in no way limited to:
Specific goals you’ll be Coaching around throughout the course of the partnership
Timeframe (for the length of Coaching, as well as for your individual goals)
Possible factors in your life to discuss, whether internal or external, that you think may be standing in the way of accomplishing your goals

Is Coaching right for me?
Well, the simple answer is ‘yes.’ Anyone and everyone can benefit from a strong Coaching relationship. Asking if Coaching is right for you is like asking if exercise is right for you. We’ll all get better if we workout a few times a week instead of sitting on the couch scrolling through Netflix.
But just as our physical health needs vary from person to person, our needs for Coaching do as well. Sessions range from 30 to 90 minutes on average, and can be as often as 2-3 times per week, once a week, or once a month. It all depends on where you are, what you’re working on, and how much you need to discuss. Just like the Coachee guides the relationship, you’re also in charge of the frequency of your sessions!
