Personal Development and Confidence

Do you ever feel a little nervous or self conscious? Have you ever felt that you weren't competant to cope with the challenges that life has handed you? If you have, rest assured that you are not alone. The truth is that over 97% of people feel shy, nervous and unsure a lot of the time. Life is not easy, and it can sometimes give us a difficult path. Fortunately, we each have the choice to overcome these feelings and reach our true potential.

Life Fulfillment and Planning

Do you have plans that never seem to get off the ground? Are you in the habit of saying 'one day' when it comes to your ambitions? It seems that most of us have visions of the ways our lives could be better, but few of our ideas make the transition to reality. The main reason the majority of people don't get anywhere with their dreams is because they lack plans, goals and action steps. Once you have a plan, you are able to begin making your dreams a reality.

So what do you want from your life? Perhaps you struggle with the question. Does the idea of planning for the future make you draw a blank? Often it is a case of not being objective about yourself and your prospects. You have much more potential than you realise!

Our coaching programs can help you create a definite life plan that is based on your values, not just loose ideas. Once this process is started it can become more meaningful and rewarding than you ever imagined. We can help you to:

Identify Your Values
Uncover your true passions
Develop your possible career paths
Begin new things you've always wanted to do
Discover your own advice
Develop strategies for entering a new career
Develop action plans for making changes
Overcome procrastination and inertia
Stay motivated and in action on your new path

Self Knowledge and Life Purpose

Have you ever had a time when you started to question everything? What is my life about? What have I really achieved? How do I want to be remembered? These types of questions can plague us and make us unsure about our daily actions. To become a person who feels centred and on-purpose, we must go through the process of searching for our true values. We have to clarfiy what is really important and make decisions about those big, scary questions.

Through working with us, our clients have developed a whole new perspective about their lives and how they truly want to live. This process is a deeply enriching experience full of suprise turns and amazing revelations. We have helped people to bring their passion out and start to really live each day of their lives.

If you feel that you are searching for 'something deeper', then working with a coach may be a great way to get clear on your values, life purpose and real priorities. Through working together we can:

Develop a deeper understanding of yourself
Give you the opportunity to move past the superficial 'stuff'
Uncover your true 'agendas' - and begin pursuing them!

What is life coaching?

As I see it, life coaching aims to help you achieve clarity and confidence to work through issues that are holding you back from enjoying a challenging and harmonious life. Life coaching is not about making simplistic judgments about someone's life and telling them how they ought to live it. The majority of coaches set out to fix what is wrong with people. I don't believe in that approach at all.

Personal experience and social research have shown that people are the sum of their genes, their cumulative experiences and the circumstances in which they live their lives. I believe, therefore, that successful coaching has to be based on an understanding of all these factors and not just focus on superficial behaviours. For me, then, effective, authentic coaching is based on the following five principles:

i) a shared feeling of trust and empathy between client and coach;
ii) a relationship of equality between client and coach;
iii) a desire on the client's part to focus on the future, while acknowledging the effects of the past;
iv) a willingness by the client to work through challenging issues towards empowerment, self-confidence and a happier, more productive life; and
v) a belief in people's ability to accept themselves and yet make changes that will improve their lives.
