YOUR VISION. OUR JOURNEY.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. —Lao Tzu

What’s Your Journey?

Do you want to change, but can’t get started? Do you harbor a dream, but don’t pursue it? Are you navigating a life-altering transition?  Or scanning a fresh horizon, but not sure which path to follow?

No matter your goal. No matter your age. No matter your current role or circumstance, you can embark on a glad journey toward change.

It begins with growth coaching.

Growth coaching forms a partnership between you and a professional coach, focusing on your agenda. Together, you identify your personal or professional goals; the barriers toward reaching them; the pathways to transformation; and a map for your unique change journey.

As you step forward, the growth coach guides, motivates, and applauds your progress. Through flat and steep terrains, hesitations and stalls, confident jumps and lurches forward, the coach travels with you. You reach the prized destination together. Your new life begins.

You and Your Growth Coach

Are you hungry for change? Ready to start the journey toward life-altering goals? Consider the nature of a growth-coach partnership.

·      A coaching partnership builds on a relationship of equals. You and your coach respect each other.

·      Overall coaching centers on your heartfelt needs and agenda.

·      Your coach asks questions to encourage awareness about choices, responses, and resourcefulness in handling your goals and challenges.

·      Coaching speaks to the “whole person.” If needed, sessions address difficulties touching your work and private life.

·      Your coach does not give advice. You discover your own answers.

·      You leave each session with an action plan for your current objective, a step toward the final destination.

·      Your coach keeps sessions, plans, and everything else confidential.

·      Growth occurs outside and in between sessions.

·      Your coach delights in your incremental progress!

It Begins with Your Questions

Growth coaching begins with asking yourself questions. Answering and sharing them with your coach builds a foundation for this exciting journey. These questions include:

1.     Where, who, and what are you now? This includes your life, work, skills, and relationships.

2.     Ideally, where, who, and what would you like to be?

3.     Given these answers, what goals do you set?

4.     How can you achieve and sustain those goals?
