Transition Coaching

Are you ready to consider the benefit of self-improvement techniques and life coaching tools to ignite your power again?

Many of us feel “hostage” to the frenetic routine that is our lives and some are stalled in the career course. Without being conscious of it, we are often misaligned with our current direction and our passion and purpose in life. We sort of unconsciously carry out our daily routine and obligations in a self-created “comfort zone”. I remember a pivotal moment in the drama that was my life where I said “enough! I deserve to be happy”. EVERYONE deserves to be happy, following their life purpose and at peace! If you are reading this now you are ready  to commit to change! Congratulations!

Wikipedia tells us:

The English term “coach” is derived from a medium of transport that traces its origins to the Hungarian word, “kocsi” meaning carriage and was named after the village where it was first made. The first use of the term coaching to mean an instructor or trainer arose around 1830 in Oxford University slang for a tutor who “carries” a student through an exam. The first use of the term in sports came in 1861. Coaching is currently used in language to describe the process used to transport people from where they are, to where they want to be.

Coaching is NOT therapy! The coach is a guide who is there for support, encouragement and accountability as the client achieves their stated goal. Coaching can be done individually or as a small group. Pre-requisites on the part of the client are integrity, commitment, focus and belief in a successful outcome. The Coach must protect the client’s confidentiality and honor the client’s decisions for the direction of the coaching plan.

Overview of the focused coaching process (Each of the first 3 Sessions are approximately 1.5 hours each and are done by phone or Skype):

1. Session 1 – Joint dialogue between the Coach and client(s) to assess the priority areas in a person’s life experience that they want to address, creating a mutual, manageable and affirmative plan for change, regular contact and most important, accountability. Once the assessment has been done and the area of focus has been determined, an affirmative vision statement is created by the coach for the client.
2. Session 2 – Once the vision plan is completed and reviewed with the Coach, the Client(s) commits to read the affirmative statement for 31 days as part of the execution of the coaching plan.
3. Session 3 – The Coach assists the Client in the creation of a potential plan of action and works to identify any barriers that need to be overcome. This plan is custom designed for each particular client(s) and once agreed upon, is signed by the client(s). The plan is subject to modification and improvement once it is implemented, but only through joint decision.
4. Session 4 and thereafter – Normally the Coach and Client agree to a schedule of 30-45 minute calls weekly to discuss the progress of the plan and any adjustments. This is the opportunity for the Coach to hold the Client accountable for their vision of the coaching outcome and to encourage and celebrate the client(s) successes.

NOTE:  A successful coaching process usually takes 4 to 5 months for a client to experience and maintain stable, consistent change and feel confident that the coaching process achieved the stated goal. The plan for the number of sessions is done jointly on a case by case basis.
