how it works
I honour you as the expert in your own life. Our coaching framework values and respects your choices, humanity, experiences, values and beliefs.
I believe you have all the knowledge, abilities, and resources you need to make decisions that are best for you and achieve the changes you would like to see in your life. Using a positive, humanistic coaching approach, we work with you to help you clearly define your goals, identify and overcome obstacles, and take action that leads you on the path to greater fulfilment at work and in life.
Through compassion, honesty and humour we build a strong connection that enables us to work through difficult issues, challenge any self-limiting assumptions, and focus on what you really want to achieve right now and how you will get there.
Our coaching sessions will involve rich and potentially challenging conversations including:
Listening non-judgementally to your hopes, dreams and fears
Asking questions to inspire you to greater understanding of your current situation
Helping you to create a clear map of where you want to go, and the steps to get there
Motivating you to act on what you decide to do
Celebrating your successes, and helping you to reflect on things that do not go as planned
