How Coaching Works

Coaching is done over the phone -- from anywhere. We work together for either half an hour or one hour each week -- a small time investment that can turn your idea into reality.

Our services are offered exclusively over the phone. This is not only more convenient for you, but actually can be more effective than working in-person.

From the Mother of a Teen

It is strange to think that someone who has helped my son so much is a person we have never met, who lives halfway across the country and has only communicated with us by telephone. You have a special gift and I am so grateful for all you have done for us.

We offer our services over the phone because of the unique nature of what we have to offer. Coaching works better over the phone because you will find that it actually enhances your level of focus. Our clients enjoy the ability to connect and communicate without feeling pressure to make eye contact or communicate non-verbally. It enables you to not have to worry about the visual impression you are making while working with us.

The distance between us also helps you open up and feel comfortable taking an honest look at yourself and what skills you will need to develop in order to achieve your goals.

Working over the phone also enables us to work with clients who would not otherwise be able to benefit from our services. We can work with you no matter where you are. We have clients across the US as well as Canada and the UK. If long distance phone costs are an issue, please let us know and we can call you. If you are unsure about whether working over the phone will work for you, go ahead and give it a try.

What Happens on the Call

When we are coaching together, our objective is to deepen your learning and further your action toward your goal. What does that mean? We work at a level deeper than problem solving. We try on different perspectives and note how that impacts your assumptions. We hold the big picture when the bumps in the road seem insurmountable. From your new clarity we then design actions to implement your plans for the upcoming week.

What Happens During the Following Week

Your alliance with me is not limited to the insights you gain during our call. All week long your attention will be focused on what matters most to you. No longer will weeks go by with those vital but non-emergency ideas sitting cold on the back burner.

How Is That Done?

Sometimes I give my clients an inquiry. That is a general question to consider during the week, designed to continue your learning and encourage further insight.

Some of my clients like accountability to the actions they are taking to make their goals. In that case, we can design intuitive and imaginative structures to help you accomplish your weekly actions. We will also get your planner out and schedule the time in for your true priorities.

And sometimes just knowing you will be calling and celebrating with me is all that it takes!
