Life coaching is a tool successful people use to achieve and create their ideal life.
Most people understand that a sports coach helps an athlete:

• Set and reach goals
• Stay focused
• Attain their personal best
• Accomplish more through support and training

In a similar vein, as your life coach I will:

• Encourage you to set and achieve goals important to you
   (even goals you may have thought unattainable)
• Focus you to produce better and faster results
• Encourage you to do more than you would do on your own to attain
   your p.b. (personal best)
• Provide you with support, tools and structure to accomplish more

How do I, as your coach, accomplish this?

We will arrange a day and time to suit your schedule as a standing appointment. I will call you at our agreed time

Through phone coaching sessions I will focus on you and work with you to identify what is important to you in your personal or professional life. You will gain the ability to recognise, eliminate and replace obstacles or roadblocks that hold you back from the success you deserve. As your coach I enable you to find your own "answers" by:

• Asking questions
• Making specific requests
• Actively listening
• Expecting your best
• Being direct and honest
• Assigning homework
• Giving feedback/reflecting
• Being there for you

What coaching is not

Coaching is not therapy, counselling 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 client's 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.
