In each of these pictures you'll notice a genuine smile. That's who I love to be - someone who proactively chooses to find joy and happiness in life. I wasn't always like that, but I made a conscious decision to be that way several years ago and it's been an amazing journey to uncover the Magic that was inside me all along.

I love helping people and I'd love to help you start that journey too!

Fun

I was never a fan of organized sports (chubby, clumsy girl in the Florida heat). But I found a love of outdoor sports (hiking, camping, canoeing) when I went to school in the mountains of North Carolina.

I moved back to Florida in 2020 and have discovered the beauty of our outdoors. In my free time you'll find me paddle boarding, kayaking

I moved back to Florida in 2020 and have discovered the beauty of our outdoors. In my free time you'll find me paddle boarding, kayaking, boating, or hiking - anything that allows me to bask in the beauty of nature.

That was the inspiration for my LeadHERship Adventures skill building workshops for women.

What Is Coaching?

Definition

Coaching is a professional relationship that helps people produce extraordinary results in their lives, careers, businesses or organizations, helping them to bridge the gap between where they are now and where they want to be. Coaches partner with their clients to design the life they want, bring out their clients’ own brilliance and resources so that they can achieve excellence and create purposeful, extraordinary lives. By creating clarity, coaching moves the client into action, accelerating their progress by providing greater focus and awareness of all the possibilities which exist to create fulfilling lives.

Coaching brings expertise out of the coachee rather than to the coachee.

According to the International Coach Federation:

Coaches honor the client as the expert in his or her life and work and believe every client is creative, resourceful and whole. Standing on this foundation, the coach's responsibility is to:

Discover, clarify, and align with what the client wants to achieve
Encourage client self-discovery
Elicit client-generated solutions and strategies
Hold the client responsible and accountable

This process helps clients dramatically improve their outlook on work and life, while improving their leadership skills and unlocking their potential.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please contact us if you cannot find an answer to your question.

How does coaching work?

Coaching is an interactive experience where we discover your goals and your passions and use them to help you travel down a path to the life you want. The coach and the coachee will meet regularly (virtual or in-person) for a defined amount of time. The coach will ask the coachee questions to help them achieve insights about their goals and the journey to reach those goals.

Is it confidential?

100%! What happens in our sessions stays in our sessions. I may ask your permission to record a session for educational purposes, but you are always free to say no.

How long does it typically take to see results?

The time that your coaching process will take depends on the complexity of your goals and your commitment and openness to your process. Typical coaching relationships last 3 - 6 months.

What is the philosophy behind coaching?

The underlying philosophy behind coaching is that we humans have immeasurable resources of energy, wisdom, ability and genius waiting to be set in motion. We can create the life we want faster and more easily by partnering with a coach who helps us utilize these resources to facilitate change and realize our potential.

How does coaching differ from therapy and other helping professions?

Professional coaches know the importance of identifying the characteristics and ethical considerations which differentiate coaching from consulting, therapy, mentoring, counseling, or even friendship and support group membership.

While coaching and therapy share some similarities, psychotherapy often focuses on the impact the past has on the present, on healing psychological dysfunction, and on relieving emotional pain. The therapist is considered to be the expert, the one with answers about what is right for the client.

Coaching focuses on the present and future, the client's strengths, life purpose and goals, working with clients to create possibilities to enrich their life. Based on the belief that all individuals are whole, capable individuals, coaching assumes the client is expert, able to determine what is best for their lives and the coach works along with them to maximize their personal and professional potentials, to close the gaps to create extraordinary lives.

What Coaching Is/Is Not

Coaching Is:

· A partnership between coach and coachee.

· A process for the coachee to discover what’s best for him or her.

· A forward-looking, positively focused way to explore options and opportunities.

Coaching Is Not:

· A method to get advice on what to do (that’s Consulting).

· Observing and learning from a seasoned professional (that’s Mentoring).

· A way to apply a quick fix (not very effective).
