Coaching is a co-creative process between a coach and a client where the coach offers their client a way to create more of what they desire – a different or new experience.

In my 1:1 coaching, I primarily coach in a conventional sense. I coach online via conversations with my clients and through written coaching.

I hold space for my client, which means I create a safe space without judgement to invite my client to share their truth and show up authentically. And via this experience, I offer my clients 4 fundamental things to give them the ability to create more of what they want:

• Self-knowing
• Empowerment
• New possibilities
• Integration and Actualisation 

Self-knowing is when I shine a light on my clients past, present, and future. Who they were, what they have created, who they are, what they truly desire and who they want to become. I help them see what patterns, thoughts, feelings, and actions enable or prevent them from creating what they truly desire.

Empowerment is uncovering where my client has power. So often we don’t realise we are blocking ourselves because of our beliefs, because of our fear, because of our self-judgement or because of our unwillingness to feel discomfort. When we can see how truly powerful, we are, the empowerment comes from that knowledge, that we can choose what we think, what we do and who we are in the world, which facilitates healing and growth.

New possibilities are when I open my clients’ mind to the myriad of other possibilities they have not considered and help them to step into those new possibilities. I facilitate my clients believing new thoughts, creating new energy, and understanding the process of transformation through teaching and in practice.

Integration and Actualisation is the part that the client does with guidance and support. There are many ways that a coach can help facilitate this process.

The relation between a coach and their client is a special one. When you have a coach who can “hold space” for you without judgement and bring their belief in you to the relationship, it’s a beautiful foundation for growth, expansion and healing. A 1:1 coach is able to meet you where you are, help you explore uncomfortable truths and show you things that you may not be able to see yourself.

Individual coaching is so powerful because you build an intimate relationship with someone who gets to know you on a deep level. They are able to show you the lens you see the world through and invite you to decide on purpose, if that’s the lens you want to keep.

Uncovering your truth can be uncomfortable so having someone to witness you and who is an experience guide can help facilitate safe, personal transformation.

As a coach, I think hiring an individual coach is an important rite of passage. When you invest in what you sell, you will be in integrity. You get to experience coaching from the other side, which will inform how you coach. You also get to experience the beautiful unique way someone else runs their coaching practice.

I highly recommend the experience of having a coach.  

Coaches are not able to diagnose any illness and therefore we meet all our clients as whole and functioning humans. A coach is able to empower you with your own authority to choose how you want to think, feel and act. A coach does not have the intent of fixing you. Instead they bring love, belief and trust in you to the coaching relationship. Whilst coaching is a future focused modality, there will be times when we explore the past, present and future.

There are times when the scope of what you need may be outside the capacity of a coach. On these occasions a coach may suggest you speak a qualified professional. They might end the coaching relationship with you, to be continued at a later date, or they might continue their relationship with you, whilst you participate in therapy or counselling.

Coaching is an incredible process and a beautiful relationship. It’s a significant investment in your input, energy, time and money. If you have a big commitment to a particular goal, or a desire for personal growth and you are willing to invest in yourself, then you are ready. Now it’s just a matter of finding the right coach.

There are lots of coaches out there. When you are looking for a coach make sure you consume some of their content. If their approach and vibe aligns with you that’s great. If you are already experiencing transformation before you work with them that’s also a good sign.

I suggest that before working with any coach you make sure you experience being coached by them. Meet them, have a conversation, make sure you feel comfortable with them. Notice how you feel when you speak to them. Do you trust them? Do you like them? Did they offer you something that is valuable on the call? Were you able to share your truth with them?

My individual coaching program is a high touch, personalised program that responds to the needs of my clients. I am able to spend time and offer coaching and mentorship specifically in the areas that my clients desire. My clients have direct access to me via email throughout the entire program. I get to know my clients on a deep. Level so that the work we do together can be profound. AND the clients who do the individual coaching program also get access to my group program.

The group program is a beautiful community experience where you have access to be coached by me, get coaching feedback and ask me questions on live calls or in the Facebook group. But the access is limited. I have capped the course so there is availability for everyone to be coached/get live coaching feedback at least once during the course, but the amount of 1:1 contact with me is limited.
