Ensure your lifecoach is
experienced. I have been mentoring and coaching
people as a career since 2001. At this time I would describe myself (and my
clients would say!) that I am a very experienced life coach who has worked
with many people in many situations. I
also coach Life Coaches! Allow my experience to
help you make changes to your life situation, today!
How do I find a life coach?
How do I know which life coach to work with? In
a word resonance. Listen for to your body telling you that "I could work
with this person" or "this person gives me the creeps"... and
make your choice accordingly! You may find the following information will
tell you that you are in safe hands! I
am not a conventional life coach offering readymade classroom solutions. Take
a look at My Background, where I have shared some peak achievements and underpinning
attitudes. I am not a Doctor, do you need a doctor? If you have explored my
website this far, then you are probably very interested in the opportunity of
engaging with a life coach. You may well be trying to ascertain if I am
the right coach for you, and rightly, you would be considering my background, life experience
and coaching experiences to make that decision. You may also be interested in what
other clients have had to say. Hopefully, you now have enough resonance
with the information published on this website to make an initial contact! I have found that what
really matters is an initial face-to-face discussion about
your needs (no surprise really) . Only then can you really ascertain if I am the right coach,
and only then can I start to ascertain if I can help you on your journey. Let's
meet to discuss! Some
more
background and my very unique aptitude for life coaching I have led a very eclectic life, travelled widely,
lived in several countries, achieved a great deal, lost a great deal, learned a
great deal, loved a great deal, been exposed to an extraordinary
number of professional disciplines at some depth. I have interviewed (with a view to
employing them) thousands of people; gaining a great deal of insight into what
makes people tick. As
a life coach I use many tools, exercises and disciplines to help my clients
learn who they really are. I too have used these methods to chart
my own life of success, fulfilment and balance. One interesting personal analysis that I
would like to share that relates to coaching, I have ascertained that my
fortified signature strengths are as
follows:
-
Perspective
(wisdom) - My friends value my perspective on matters and turn to
me for advice. I have a way of
looking at the world that makes sense to others and to myself.
-
Creativity,
ingenuity, and originality - Thinking
of new ways to do things is a crucial part of who I am. I am never
content with doing something the conventional way if a better way is
possible.
-
Curiosity
and interest in the world - I
am curious about everything. I am always asking questions, and I find
all subjects and topics fascinating. I like exploration and discovery.
-
Capacity
to love and be loved - I value
close relations with others, in particular those in which sharing and caring
are reciprocated. The people to whom I feel most close are the same people
who feel most close to me.
-
Humour
and playfulness - I
like to laugh and tease. Bringing smiles to other people is important to me.
I try to see the light side of all situations.
Why am I a Life
Coach?
I have done the money-centric successful
entrepreneur path and it was time to get people focussed. I love people. I was drawn to life coaching
initially because friends told me that I was already doing it! .. and that
I was good at it. Helping others with insightful, warm and intelligent
words. Delving deeper I realised that my coaching talents
evolved from the confluence of two life journeys, being both a
dynamic entrepreneur as well as a highly attuned Intuitive. I draw
on both of these sources when working with my coaching clients and people tell me that I am highly effective.
Helping other people is my gift to the world, and I enjoy my work. If I
can influence one person to change their outlook on life for the better -- I
know they too will influence their loved ones, families, work mates, friends and
people in the street. A cascade approach to making life worth living! I am
also a qualified yoga instructor.
Life coach
accreditation
So far I have not sought
accreditation from an outside coaching organisation. My ego does not need
a certificate on the wall. There is no official
professional body for life coaching. Those that purport to be, are in fact
great money making businesses! -- performing the function of training people up
to be a coaches and bandying around logos so that people feel better about
themselves. I believe that the ability to coach people on the subject of
life-skills is an innate ability, not a taught one. In your search for a
lifecoach, you will have noticed many organisations offering to train you
to become a life coach. You pay them money, and a few weeks later you are a
accredited life-coach! Buyer beware!
At this time I prefer to
listen to my clients for accreditation... only they can really tell me if I am
doing a great job. I would be interested in hearing from you if you would have
considered working with me if I was accredited by one of the many accreditation
businesses, let
me know your thoughts!
Premium Life
Coaching?
My Life coaching capabilities are
utterly unique. My coaching style is not tempered by an out-of-the-box,
one-size-fits-all hobby-farmer approach. I design custom programs for each
of my clients. I am experienced and have worked with many people with
many different life-challenges. My work is very effective. I coach face-to-face. I
coach you at a location of your choice. I am very flexible. No
demanding binding contracts. I blend entrepreneurship, yoga-philosophies,
meditation, empowerment techniques, laughter, listening, a razor sharp mind and
love in my work. If you are serious about changing your life for the better... why
give yourself anything less?
