What is Life Coaching?
Simply put, a Life Coach is a person who is dedicated to helping you live your life ON-PURPOSE. A Life Coach transforms hoping and wishing into action steps and results. A Life Coach helps transform the experience of life happening to you into the experience of you creating a life you love. This can be in the areas of your own person wellness, your business, your relationships - or in all areas of your life. A Life Coach inspires you to live with intention.
In-person Life CoachingIn-person Life Coaching can take place in my office in Bend, Oregon, or outside in one of the beautiful nature locations in our lovely city. I am an outdoor enthusiast, and I believe that nature has it's own power of healing, rejuvenation and guidance. Sessions can take place sitting in the park or walking on a trail.

Online Life Coaching
90% of my client sessions take place over the phone or via video chat. This is mainly because I coach clients all around the world. Sometimes, however, even my local clients find it more convenient to coach from the comfort of their home. Sessions held in-person, over the phone or via video chat are equally effective.

What to expect: The Coaching Relationship
I am deeply committed to helping you create and achieve your vision for your personal life, marriage, business or career. During our sessions, we will explore what you want and what your natural and most powerful way of achieving that is. Sessions can be purchased one at a time at full price, or as a package at a discounted rate. For the duration of our coaching relationship, all emails, text messages and between session communications are included in the cost of your sessions.
Coaching with me includes three main aspects. The first aspect is doing what I call the “inner work”. This includes exploring & identifying the core beliefs and habits currently creating your life experiences. We might discover that some of these belief systems need to be updated to help you create what you desire. Well investigate and discover just what makes you, you, and you will become aware of your unique recipe for fulfillment. We'll also work on identifying your values and aligning your thoughts and actions with them. Developing this level of self awareness will allow you clearly identify your needs & tap into your unlimited creativity to meet these needs in any given moment (meaning you no longer have to wait for someone or something to be different so that you can be happy).
The second is the "outer" work. This includes learning new "tools" to put in your EI (emotional intelligence) tool-belt. As you learn new skills, you will begin to show-up differently in your life and relationships. Trying on a new way of being can be challenging and requires intention & commitment - which are are two skills that you will master while working with me. This is also the aspect where you will make action-driven goals, and you'll be able to rely on me to hold you accountable for taking those actions. Often this will require that you move through fear and discomfort to do things you haven't done before. That's great! I will be there to support you through the entire process.
The third aspect is creating ever-growing levels of presence. This allows you to begin attracting everything you want to design a future you love. You are the greatest expert on your own life. I will help you to get in touch with that expert, your own inner coach. This is the part of you knows exactly what you want and gives you clues every day about what to do next. Working with your vision of what you want your life to look like, we will use these clues to take actions that lead to extraordinary results. By learning to pay attention to these clues, your attention will be drawn to people, things and situations. As we develop your intuition and trust in yourself, you will notice a dramatic improvement in your decision-making, timing, and results. Your work and your life will become an enjoyable and continuous treasure hunt with unlimited treasures. This results in you accelerating your ability for success and having more of what you want in your life.
