My Values & Beliefs
Honesty
Honesty should be the bedrock of your foundation, as it will define who you are before you even allow others to know more about you. If you always deal in the truth, you’ll live a life with far less worry. Honest intentions in speech and action gain the attention and respect of others. Honesty promotes openness, empowers us and enables us to develop consistency in how we present the facts. Honesty sharpens our perception and allows us to observe everything around us with clarity.
Confidence
A major component of confidence is the value you place on yourself. Confidence is about the faith you have in your abilities, the person you are, and how you view your most important relationship — the one with yourself. Confidence tells the story of who we truly are in the most authentic way possible. It is our representation of the way we want to be seen and how we want to see ourselves. Be confident in everything you do, and you will never be denied.
Perserverance
We need to understand that everyone fails at one point or another. Sometimes, the way we get knocked down is completely out of our control. But we have to respond, and we have to rise to the occasion. You’ll find persistence and perseverance are ingredients that any happy and successful person put into practice.
My Approach
While my coaching style may vary from client to client, I will say at my core I am transformational coach. Working with clients currently experiencing transitions in life it is important for me to help them see these transitions as not just an shift of who they are now but also as a shift of who they will become. This style of coaching works best in one-on-one and small group settings where a trusting coach-client alliance can be built. Once that alliance is built the coaching goals and processes can be selected and agreed upon by both parties. As a transformational coach I like to work collaboratively with my clients while offering authentic support along with candid feedback. After all it is your life, you should have all the say in it.
Transformational coaching is made up of the following dimensions: Inspirational motivation, idealized influence, intellectual stimulation, and individual consideration. This coaching style encourages the following client skills and qualities:
- cognitive development
- collaborative skills
- intrinsic motivation
- self-discovery
- purpose
- accountability
- ability to problem-solve
