Why people seek out life coaching
Writing the next chapter often includes getting outside support, and exploring something that may feel very new to you.
And the interesting thing, is the next chapter can involve various types of happening , from positive to negative and everything in-between.
Some interesting reasons people decide to work with me.
Something remarkable has happened.
Change, even when it appears favourable, can be both exhilarating and disorienting.
Every decision in life sends ripples through various domains, impacting our health, relationships, and even how we spend our precious free time.
Transitions force us to reassess our self-perception and the capabilities we once took for granted. It can be agonizing to let go of the familiar, especially if we expect to be deliriously happy but fall short.
Coaching can help us examine the constructs and inner worlds we've built in the past.
Something terrible has happened.
Whether we've faced a career setback, business failure, empty nest syndrome, or the challenging throes of menopause, most of us instinctively shun grief, opting to bulldoze through these difficult moments.
However, this approach often results in prolonged resentment and depression.
Taking the time to grieve traumatic changes can reduce the duration of our despair. Mindfulness coaching offers a compassionate and safe space for us to mourn and heal.
If we find ourselves dismantling the structures of home, marriage, or career, an outside voice becomes a valuable ally in helping us glean wisdom from our struggles and propel us forward.
Absolutely nothing is happening
Perhaps you've tirelessly strived to improve your circumstances, only to feel stuck in a maddening loop of unfulfilled aspirations.
Achieving the desired results often necessitates changing our attitudes and underlying beliefs.
Perhaps you need the opportunity to make a fresh start. Even with something you think is a failure.
Fear of failure stands as the greatest nemesis to our plans and ideas.
More than a lack of knowledge, skill, or even a clear strategy, the paralysis induced by fear poses the most substantial obstacle to progress. Few dare to confront failure willingly.
Yet, failing in any endeavour, even the failure to act, presents a rich learning opportunity.
When trapped in self-limiting patterns and beliefs, we may need extra support to help us break free, challenge self-defeating assumptions, and reframe the competing forces that shackle our potential.
I have a burning desire to make something happen
There comes a time when we yearn to bring our deepest desires to fruition, but the enormity and implications of change leave us paralyzed.
We find ourselves teetering on the edge of a metaphorical cliff, unsure whether to hold on or take the plunge. It is precisely during these moments when self-limiting behaviour rears its head, sabotaging our courage to take risks for the sake of transformation.
A coach becomes our steadfast companion, supporting us in staying on track and overcoming the self-sabotaging actions that threaten our dreams, plans, and our desired future.
Overcoming stagnation: Unleashing the happening of progress
"You may see yourself as blocked, at a crossroads, or out of options. You may feel defeated, resigned, or confused, and your point of view is often the main contributing factor to the blocked, stuck, or stalled way you're feeling."
When we perceive ourselves as blocked or stagnant, it can be challenging to see a way forward. We may feel defeated, resigned, or overwhelmed by confusion. However, our point of view often plays a significant role in perpetuating these feelings.
Learning to identify and dissolve painful beliefs that lurk in the background can propel us out of helplessness and confusion and clarify what fulfillment truly means to us.
In the grand tapestry of life, fulfillment is about living a valued, purposeful, and alive existence. Finding balance means actively choosing a life aligned with a compelling vision.
Discovering the next chapter: Unleashing new beginnings
Perhaps you've just walked out on the wrong job or ended a bad relationship. Congratulations. You may not have figured out what's next, but letting go of empty bragging rights and defining what you don't want is the first step.
Sometimes, we find ourselves walking away from situations that no longer serve us—a job that drains our energy or a toxic relationship. It's an act of courage to let go, even if we haven't yet determined what lies ahead.
My process guides you through the process of discovery, supporting you as we prepare for a new chapter in our lives.
With a coach by our side, we become more willing to explore the dark corners of our existence and embrace challenges that once seemed intimidating.
In the pursuit of growth and transformation, coaching provides the catalyst for remarkable happenings in our lives.
It empowers us to navigate change, overcome obstacles, and embark on new adventures with confidence and clarity.
