“People hire me to
support them and they appreciate me for challenging them.”

Julie A. Schaefer

What Is Coaching?

Coaching is not... Coaching is...
Fixing the past. Inventing a future.
Judging what occurred. Accepting and learning from the issue and moving forward.
Advising what is next from the coach's point of view. Questioning the client in a positive and supportive way so that they can determine their next steps and are motivated to move forward
Being the expert. Partnering with the individual so that they have the support needed to take risks.
Driving the process at the coach's pace and agenda. Focusing on what is the client's reality and readiness. It is about helping them to determine the agenda and how fast to move.

The coach is 100% on your side, champions your progress and helps you feel bolstered when anxious or deflated. Partnering with a coach is about your reality, not the coach’s. The client sets the pace. From being questioned in a supportive and positive way, the client can determine the next steps and is motivated to move forward. Together we create an action plan and accountability.
