Is this you?

Although every coach is a truly unique individual, there are many commonalities among us. See if you recognize yourself in any of the following.

You left your six-figure job (or your very secure, predictable income) to pursue your dream of being a coach and making a contribution to the world. Now you are wondering how long it will really take to replace that income and security. You have jumped into the deep end of the pool, knowing that you could swim, and are now treading water more often than you thought you would.

You know that it's possible to create your business by being totally authentic, yet you are not sure how to do this. As a coach, you understand that you are innately resourceful and have all of your answers. Yet your mind keeps leaning toward taking the advice of others and following proscribed paths for promoting your business. This leaves you going back and forth between the two and feeling confused and maybe even a bit out of integrity.

You wonder if it is really possible to create a successful coaching practice with ease and joy. You have created through hard work and 'type A' actions in the past and have been very successful at that. Now you want to create as successfully through 'flow' instead of 'force.' Only the results are not coming to you in the ways that you know are possible.

You want to focus on what is working and enjoy the journey of developing your practice. Yet the learning curve feels steep and the investments of time and money are high. You know that enjoying the journey will bring you the results you want. Yet it is difficult to enjoy the journey at this point, and it makes you nervous that you may mess up your creation if you don't.

You know that you are in the world to make a large contribution and improve the lives of others. Yet you find yourself struggling to support your business instead of allowing your business to support you. You are spending more time doing the things you don't want to do (promoting your business) and less time doing the work you love (coaching).

If you resonate with any of the above, you have common characteristics of many of my clients and I can help you. Now let's look at another way of discerning ahead of time if coaching with me will really work for you.

It will work, if you have these values-

You are ready to create through spiritual principles. You know that you are a spiritual being having a human experience, and you want to tap into your wisdom in a deeper way.

You are committed to your self-development. You understand that true generosity and service come from your self-care and self-love. You are willing to clear out any limiting beliefs or self-sabotaging behaviors that come up in the coaching process.

You take responsibility for yourself. You truly believe that 'when you serve yourself, you serve the world.' You know that you create your own reality, and you want to learn how to create more deliberately.

You are open to learning. You see each interaction in your life as an opportunity for learning, and welcome new and innovative ways to tap into your creative juices.
