My Approach
Just like there are different types of clients, there are different types of coaches.
- Some people are most successful when they are able to follow someone else’s plan; a generic blueprint.
- On the other hand, there are those of us who must forge our own paths, in our own way, creating a process that is authentic and aligned with our own perspectives and values. This is the type of client that will benefit from my style of coaching.
- My coaching is focused on your needs. You bring the topics, and together we work through the solutions
- We work at your pace, not on a fixed schedule
- I believe in you, and believe that you will be able to create a life that is fulfilling, successful, and can be lived in balance and harmony.
Together we’ll create a business that is congruent with your life goals, values, and dreams.
I help clients turn their thoughts and ideas into results.
Why Get a Coach?
Doing what you do well and running a successful business don’t always go hand-in-hand.
- What if there was a way for you to fast-forward through the learning curve of growing a business?
- How could a fresh and objective viewpoint help you move forward?
- Could the knowledge of an experienced coach and entrepreneur make achieving your goals easier?
- Having a safe space to process and gain clarity on your business decisions is invaluable
