Understanding the Coaching Partnership

Entering a coaching partnership is a significant decision. It’s a space to consider the different aspects of yourself, to explore the tensions and sometimes even conflicting parts that arise within you. This partnership invites you to see yourself - and your goals - from new perspectives, opening up possibilities for meaningful growth and conscious development.

Working with What Matters Most

Together, we’ll focus on what’s most significant for you - those goals that feel especially important yet challenging to sustain progress in. My approach is a collaborative one; we’ll co-design a plan that helps you build the capabilities needed to relate to your objectives in new, impactful ways, enabling you to make progress that feels both refreshing and grounded.

An Invitation to Bring Your Whole Self

As we work together, you are welcome to bring all parts of yourself - personal and professional - as we explore your goals. We’ll create a coaching program that meets you right where you are, in what matters most to you. Each step will be in partnership, with shared insights and strategies to help you cultivate new possibilities.

In between our conversations, you’ll be invited to engage in exercises and practices uniquely tailored to your development path. I’ll support you in exploring these “different” approaches, encouraging reflection and experimentation.

To determine if we’re the right fit, I offer a complimentary exploratory session. If you're interested in embarking on this partnership, here are some ways we can do that:

A. Foundational Depth Session

If you’d like an introductory experience with coaching, consider a one-part conversation:

Discovery Session (90 minutes): In this conversation, we’ll explore your goals, your relationship with them, and the steps you’ve already taken. Together, we’ll identify impactful next steps and resources to support you in moving forward.

Follow-up: You’ll receive a written summary of your objectives and 1-2 tailored practices and/or resources to support you to continue independently.

B. Three-Part Depth Exploration

If you are interested in a slightly longer engagement to deepen your insights, this three-part experience offers a structured partnership over 6 weeks:

Discovery or Exploration Session (90 minutes): We’ll delve into your goals, explore the layers of meaning they hold for you, and identify what shifts are most needed.

Co-Creation Session (90 minutes, 2-3 weeks later): We’ll come together to co-create a framework for progress. This includes fresh perspectives on your approach, intentional actions, and practices and resources that will support you in making meaningful strides.

Reflection Session (1 hour, 1 month later): In this follow-up, we’ll reflect on what you’ve learned from the practices, consider any needed adjustments, and outline next steps as you continue your path independently.

C. In Depth Coaching Program

If you're seeking a deeper, more expansive approach to meaningful growth and change, this program offers support and partnership to explore underlying patterns and themes and create lasting impact in the areas that matter most to you.

Discovery Session (2 x 75-minute sessions): In this conversation, we’ll explore your goals, your relationship with them and the layers of meaning they hold for you, the steps you’ve already taken, and the shifts that are most needed for you to make progress in your goals. Together, we’ll begin to identify impactful next steps and resources to support you in moving forward.

Pathway Design Session (75 minutes): We’ll craft a personalized coaching plan, bringing in new perspectives, purposeful steps, reflections, and practices to support you to take meaningful action towards your goals.

Please note that the discovery and design sessions flow organically and are not as separate or sequential as they may appear here.

Coaching Conversation Sessions (75 minutes every 2-3 weeks): Through regular sessions, you’ll receive support and guidance as you navigate the tensions and insights that accompany change and growth. These cycles allow you to build awareness and gain insight into new ways of being that serve your objectives.

Completion Session (1 x 75-minutes): Our final session provides an opportunity to reflect on where we’ve been, to celebrate your progress, and to consider what’s next and what’s needed on your path forward.

Typically, an In-Depth Coaching Program lasts from 4-12 months, allowing for deep and meaningful exploration at your pace. The number of sessions is agreed on between coach and client.

Each of these formats is designed to help you fully engage with what’s most important to you, creating space for thoughtful self-reflection and conscious development. If you’re ready to explore coaching, I look forward to partnering with you.
