What to expect
What you can expect from me:
- I will always listen for your greatness, not your smallness. I will listen to you as a hero, not as a victim. I will always be committed to your success.
- I won’t get enrolled in your story and will always look for ‘what’s missing’ rather than ‘what’s wrong’. I will be your biggest advocate and your staunchest ally.
- I won’t step over anything. I won’t push or demand, but I will invite you to look at and deal with the things that confront you and that ordinarily you might prefer to ignore or bury. I will be your toughest taskmaster.
- I will be straight and honest. I may not always say what you want to hear, but I will always be coming from a place of love and ruthless compassion. I will never ever sit in judgment.
- I may not have all the answers but I will ask the questions that will help you to find your own answers, and I may challenge you to think differently about yourself.
- Even if things occasionally get serious, or even painful, there will also be a great deal of laughter!
- I will respond promptly if you email me between sessions (which you are welcome to do) and I will always try to be available if you want or need a brief call between sessions.
What I will expect from you:
- You will be straight and honest with me and not hold back in sharing your victories, defeats, breakdowns, breakthroughs, upsets and dreams.
- You will use me as a resource and as an utterly trustworthy and dependable ally, but not lean on me as a crutch.
- You will do your ‘homework’ (whether it is taking actions, having conversations, making shifts or getting things complete). If there’s too much - or too little - homework, just tell me.
- You will come to coaching sessions with an idea of what you want to work on and the areas you want to focus on.
- If you feel you aren’t getting what you need or expect from our relationship, you will share this as soon as you sense it and ask for what you want.
- You will be willing to venture out of your comfort zone and into you ‘adventure’ zone, trying on new concepts and different ways of doing things and giving up sabotaging and self-defeating behaviours.
- You will be coachable and willing to engage in conversations that will empower you and transform what’s possible in your life.
- You will be punctual and arrive/call me for our scheduled sessions at the time we agree on. If either of us needs to reschedule a call or a face-to-face meeting, we will let each other know at least 24 hours in advance.
Confidentiality: Be assured that everything that is said in our sessions is, and always will be, completely confidential.
