What is a Personal Coach?
It’s just that, “personal” and involves change(s) leading toward personal growth.

The Journey
What do you mean by “Spot the elephant in the room?”
Many of us have become experts at avoiding the real issues blocking our success. Coaching questions often get to the heart of the matter quickly. As a coach, I’m trained to ask those break-through questions that let A frequently asked question is how long does the coaching last?
What if I’m not clear on my goals?
Great question! Many clients have found themselves knowing they need to make changes, yet not clear on where to start. Coaching addresses this.
How long does the coaching last?
This depends on your goal(s) and how quickly you choose to work through them. Most assignments last about 3 months. At that point, the client typically takes off completing her goals. She often returns for the next phase on her journey and repeats the process.
Very targeted assignments may only take one month. e.g. One client wanted help preparing her presentation for a major client. Her goal was to alter her presentation style so that it covered the variety of personalities and interests of her audience. She was ready in 4 weeks!
Some clients just need help brainstorming a project, a major life decision, etc. This might take one or two sessions.
