What about people who are already doing well in their lives? Why would they need a coach?
You might not need a coach. But it is helpful to find out: Are you doing what you most enjoy? What negative things are you tolerating? Is life easy? Are you going to be financially independent within the next 15 years? Do you have what you most want?
Often, people want and expect more out of their lives no matter how successful they already are. A coach can help in this process.
​
Can I hire a coach just for a short-term, special project?
Yes. Some clients hire a coach to help them accomplish specific goals or projects. However, many times the client decides to keep working with the coach after that because there are even more interesting things that they want to accomplish.
​
How long must I commit if I start working with a coach?
This depends on the goals and changes you want to make in your life. Usually, it would be from three to six months but this can vary.
​
What does it cost to hire a coach?
Only you can decide how much your self-development is worth to you at any given time. However, as a professional, a coach should explain fully the details of their charges and methods of payment.
How do we work together?
One-to-one sessions
​​​
First:
1. We will arrange an exploratory intro call to assess your current situation and understand whether coaching is right for you and which programme would suit you best.
During the coaching process:
2. The program consists of blocks of sessions. The programme will be delivered in weekly or biweekly sessions. These will be assessed and discussed in our initial session. The space between sessions gives you time to do the assigned tasks and adapt to the process.
3. Our first session will last approximately 90 minutes. The subsequent sessions will be 50 minutes each approximately. This will vary depending on the programme.
4. The coaching agreement may last between 3 to 6 months. And you can renew it as needed. We believe this is the minimum time commitment to see real and permanent changes.
5. Once we’ve established what you want to achieve, at the outset of each session, we will review the previous actions and you will set a goal around a topic that you wish to work on.
6. Between sessions, you will complete the agreed actions and I might provide you with additional material or exercises if necessary.
My commitment:
7. My role will be to guide you through a process of exploration, challenge, and support by the end of which you will have formulated and written down an action plan that will move you towards the attainment of this goal.
8. The Coaching service that I provide is 100% confidential and non-judgemental.
How to make payments:
9. Fees are payable in advance via Bank Transfer. Your first six sessions should take place within a two-month period.
10. If you need to cancel or reschedule an appointment, this should be done at least 48 hours in advance, otherwise charges may be incurred.
Remember, for a successful partnership, you’ll need to commit time and effort and be honest and open so we can help you achieve your goals.
