Every change can be exciting, but it can also be scary and often lonely. The very nature of change means we are in new territory. We are out of our comfort zone, risking failure, exerting conscious energy to learn and grow, and often trying to hide our struggles from people around us. Coaching gives you the safety net and the ability to be vulnerable while navigating change with a coach whose only agenda is to support you in achieving your goals.

For some of us, managing our emotions seems impossible. Sometimes we reach a point where resentment, anger, or perhaps fear has cropped up, and we find ourselves not just having emotions but BEING our emotions! ​ Coaching supports you on the journey towards being response-able for your behaviours in alignment with your goals, rather than being reactive to and driven by your emotions.

Our deepest need is to be seen, heard, and to feel valuable. Yet being seen requires the courage to be vulnerable, to make yourself known, and to risk rejection. Some of the most competent professionals hit a ceiling when they play small because it's safer than risking rejection.​ Coaching is a way to help you become visible, to make yourself prominent, and to become your own Eminence Project (c) by getting clear on what you want to be known for and taking consistent actions outside your comfort zone that build your brand and position your expertise.

That overwhelming exhaustion, mental and emotional fatigue, and loss of purpose - and maybe even a loss of sense of self - can be debilitating when there was a time that your work excited and energised you and gave you a clear sense of purpose! So often we get to this point after years of prioritising everything and everyone over our own needs. If you struggle with boundaries, self-care, and prioritising your needs, you may well be on your way to burnout or already be in it, or you may be struggling to recover from it. This may be your reason for starting your coaching journey.

There's a pivotal moment in life where many of us begin our search for meaning and our journey of becoming our most authentic selves. The process of getting curious, of choosing to discard destructive coping mechanisms and adopting the behaviours of the person you want to be, requires courage, creativity, and no shortage of self-compassion. As you seek guidance to embrace this significant period, remember that your future self is counting on you to make impactful changes today. If this speaks to you, coaching can be an invaluable resource for gaining clarity on your priorities, values, passions, and the person you want to become.
