Coaching
I believe coaching is a relationship more than a methodology.
And like all good relationships, it is one based on mutual trust. It’s placing trust in others and the amazing inner resources we all naturally possess, just waiting to be discovered.
My role as a coach is that of creating a safe and non-judgemental space where you can be yourself, completely. In this new and comfortable environment, you will be free to express your feelings, doubts, concerns and frustrations, but also challenge old, limiting beliefs and replace them with new and better ones that will help shape your dreams and aspirations.
In this unique and empowering relationship, I will be at your complete disposal as though I were an extension of your thoughts and intentions. We will dig deep. I will challenge you and ask questions that may at times make you uncomfortable but will catalyse genuine change within and around you.
I will hold you accountable towards the commitment you’ve made to yourself. I’ll be there to help you break down any obstacles and resistances you may encounter so that you can step closer to the future you truly want.
From Values to Goals
But before you begin chasing your vision and start your transformational journey, I cannot emphasise enough the importance of establishing your values. This is where the whole process begins, a process of which you’ll have complete ownership. Just as a tree needs healthy roots that nourish its strong trunk to finally produce its fruit, we need deep, healthy, and clearly defined values on which to build on.
Our values ground our actions, our decisions, our movements and give us the constancy with which to pursue our goals. But most importantly they nourish our innate qualities and talents upon which we build the skills we need to carve out the life we desire.
A Collective Mindset
There is an overwhelming wealth of research, from anthropology, evolutionary biology to neuroscience as well as marketing theory, that points to the evolutionary importance of a collective mindset - the integration of a whole. Where competition may have been a necessary drive in evolution, it is not enough to sustain high performance and broader notions of success.
For individuals, this means honouring our natural differences so that we can connect and interact with the world effectively and participate as a force of positive change and growth. This is where coaching comes in; finding that balance between being and doing where you become a living extension of your own true values and allow your unique qualities to pave your path to success.
Organisations as Organisms
I have worked extensively with individuals and corporations alike. Both are made up of human beings and therefore abide to the same rules and principles. Organisations operate as organisms, the micro is interchangeable with the macro. The dynamics remain the same. In both cases however, the goal is to flourish. To maintain a steady, unshakeable drive towards becoming the best possible version of itself.
All Starts From Within
I help my clients by starting this process from within - sometimes using meditation as an option and other supporting techniques - to regain a deeper connection with themselves, in their relationships, what they understand as the spirit, or what is “sacred” in their lives. The next step is a more pragmatic one, which is to put all this into action and start flourishing in a life filled with opportunity and fulfilment.
See me as a resource, one which is best used by those who are resolute and ready to commit to an expansive and far-reaching project. I’m here for those determined to go beyond single objectives and strive towards sustainable, long-lasting progress and growth.
