The first step is always the hardest - committing to changing our lives. In order to make a meaningful change we have to really understand what we’re looking for. This is where we often start. This stage may include:

• Engaging in Self-Reflection: Identify your core values and passions. This involves asking yourself what truly motivates you, what brings you joy, and what you stand for.

• Evaluating Your Current Skills/Strengths: Conduct a thorough assessment of the strengths, skills, and talents that you already have.

• Identifying What’s Holding You Back. Each of us has something that is challenging us, preventing us from taking the next steps. For some these challenges are thrust upon us and for some they come from within. We’ll work together to name them, understand them better, and begin defining strategies for success.

It is always most productive to have clear goals and objectives in the beginning of any coaching process. during this stage we will create concrete goals for our work together.

That’s it, we arrived at execution time. During this phase, we will create a personalized and relevant action plan that will allow you to leverage your strengths, remove barriers, and achieve your career goals. To make this happen we may:

• Continue Identifying your Strengths. We all have talents, skills, and strengths that we use everyday even if we don’t notice. These are the skills that will allow you to meet your goals and the ability to communicate them is crucial.

• Avoiding or Accepting Barriers. We don’t have to let the challenges in our lives dictate how we live. With some intentional work, we will work together to overcome your challenegs, avoid common pitfalls, and even accept the things we don’t have control over.

• Set Clear and Timely Objectives. Ok, this is where the work really begins. We will work together to develop tasks and deliverables so you can start meeting your goals and track the progress you are making

• Continuos Assessment. Periodically, we will take time to see how things are going, make revisions, and alter our approach if needed.
