'
I think what I
found most useful was Karen's ability to listen to my moans and groans
about the struggle of daily, family life for long enough to feel heard,
but then still manage to pull me back to focus on my self awareness and
goals that were attainable, it's a true talent she has.'

The Benefits of Coaching
Coaching can benefit anyone who wants to move forward with their
life and
is willing to take some action to advance to where they want to go.
Athletes,
musicians, entrepreneurs and others have embraced the coaching concept not through
need but because they know that a supportive coach will help them
get where they want to go more quickly and effectively. The same
applies to those who use the services of a personal life coach - it
gets you where you want to go and gives you an edge you wouldn't
have on your own.
What coaching can offer you....
-
Time and space to really think about what you want to do
Limbo is
an uncomfortable place to linger….and having acknowledged the
need for change, you may feel the urge to jump headlong toward
some new status quo. Quick fix solutions are rarely lasting
solutions. Coaching is about the exploration of your
needs, motivations, desires, skills and thoughts to help you
make real, lasting change.
-
Focus
Coaching
is
about providing opportunities to look at things from a fresh perspective to help
you breakout
of the 'analysis paralysis' or 'fuzzy overwhelm' and become crystal clear
about what it is you really want; decisions that have balance
with your mind, heart and gut instincts.
-
Motivation to achieve personal life goals
To
achieve your goals you need to find your own
inner drive that spurs you into taking action. Coaching
helps connect you to your sense of purpose, creating the
motivation to feed
and sustain your energy and determination. It's about
defining a compelling vision of your future in line with your
personal values.
-
Support
The
coaching relationship is a unique collaboration, designed
exclusively to accelerate your growth and personal development. Through dialogue, questioning and listening, you will define self generated solutions and strategies for
change. It is a supportive partnership which may at times be
gently challenging but never judgemental. Your coach acts as
catalyst, support, sounding board, brainstorming partner as well
as chief cheerleader. On your side.
-
Encourage your self discovery
 Whatever
makes you happy today is unlikely to be the same as when you
were in your 20’s or 30’s. Coaching encourages you to take a look at who you are
and what
you are doing - the real you, not who everyone else wants you to
be. The realignment
of your beliefs and values ensures that the decisions and
choices you make now are in harmony with what feels right
inside, resulting
in congruent change.
-
Overcome obstacles and free yourself from limiting beliefs
Some of our biggest obstacles are of our own making. These are
the
fears, insecurities and self doubts that tell you ...‘It’s too
late’...‘You’re too old’... ‘It’s too risky’... 'I’m not good
enough’... 'I don’t deserve it’ and so on. Coaching can help you
recognise and confront your internal gremlins, free you from
such undermining patterns and develop new strategies for
thinking and acting.
-
Strategies to attain your goals by taking planned, purposeful
actions
No amount of workshops, courses or self help books will work
unless you act on what you learn. Positive intentions are not
enough either
- you have to take action.. and this is where
coaching really makes a difference.... by transforming your
insights into life changing decisions and life enhancing action.
