Coaching is a supportive, collaborative, and transformative relationship that supports individuals in making changes, reaching goals, breaking patterns, and finding greater fulfillment and meaning in life.

Coaching might address a specific area: career, parenting, education, or navigating a life change. It might also address a less specific need such as finding more meaning in life, making sense of experiences, managing stress, or having accountability and support.

Coaching is forward-looking and focuses on expanding awareness and creating action in order to help individuals move towards greater fulfillment and purpose in life.

Coaching does not give advice, but instead creates a container for transformation by building authentic connection and relying on five core beliefs about life:

Wholeness: People are whole and simultaneously moving toward a fuller experience of their wholeness.
Diversity: Honoring the full diversity of experience deepens awareness.
Resourcefulness: People are inherently resourceful and wise.
Freedom: People have the freedom to choose how they respond.
Possibility: Much more is possible than any of us can imagine.

In addition, building cultural competency and tackling issues of privilege and power are an important focus of the program.

Coaching is different from other forms of one-on-one support like consulting, mentoring, counseling, or psychotherapy. Mentoring and consulting often focus on problem-solving or advice-giving while counseling and psychotherapy often focus on healing the past and treating specific psychological issues or traumas.

My coaching training is conducted through Leadership that Works, which holds the core values of Heart Connection, Social Change, Integrity, Collaboration, and Innovation. The training is international and led by a cohort of instructors based in the U.S. and India.
