Personal Coaching has three foundational aspects: Know Yourself, Accept Yourself, and Be Yourself. From this, all else follows – work, relationships, and a life that is meaningful and fulfilling.
Know Yourself
Self-awareness is so vital. It is the foundation for living a meaningful and fulfilling life because this knowledge allows you to make conscious decisions that truly serve you. What are you deeply passionate about? What do you value? What are your gifts and how are you called to share them? What is the legacy you want to create?
The answers to these questions are uniquely your own. They create a portrait of your authentic, natural and empowered self.
Accept Yourself
Self-acceptance has two aspects: accepting that we are human and as such are blessed with both good and not-as-good characteristics, and simultaneously accepting the greatness that rests in each of us. The goal of life coaching is to awaken that greatness in you and to support you to genuinely accept all of who you are, both as a human being and also as something much grander. Some aspects of your authentic self may ask you to stretch, change, or perhaps to let go. Are you willing? What do you get from saying, “Yes!” to growth and change? What do you lose by saying, “No”? Are you willing to accept the paradox of being deeply human and also magnificently divine?
Be Yourself
The world is waiting for you to show up in your magnificence. Your purpose, your passion, your gifts and your values all combine to form the unique you. No one else can be who you are and do what you do. There is a reason that you are here. Who do you need to be? What are you here to do? What is your truth? It is important for your own self-satisfaction to express your authentic self in the world. It is also deeply important for the world. Each of us has a unique gift to give, and when we are sharing our gifts, we are naturally fulfilled, and those around us are served. Live your truth!
The intention of coaching is to bring out the best in you without telling you what you need to do, or doing it for you. Coaching starts with the core belief that you are naturally creative, resourceful and whole. You are not broken. You know what is best for you.
As your coach, I will help you look at your life objectively and will engage you in a process that invites you to explore and learn more about yourself. I will help you make conscious choices that best serve you, will hold you accountable for doing what you choose to do, and then will cheer wildly for you regardless of the outcome! I will keep you focused on deepening your learning and self-awareness as you take tangible steps towards the life you choose to live.
