Transformational Conversations
Personal growth and dream fulfillment are within your grasp!
“For years I have been and done what others suggested or felt I should be or do, with no inward satisfaction. Coaching has confirmed my true identity and purpose. It is bringing about transformation in me; so kudos to my coach. You are a life-restorer.” — A Satisfied Client
What is Coaching?
Donna Astern Lifeforming Leadership Coach
A Coach is a Personal Change Expert.
Coaches help people like you grow faster, perform at higher levels, understand themselves more deeply, and live with greater purpose and fulfillment. In the same way that a personal trainer helps a pro athlete maximize performance, a personal coach can help you get the most out of life.
Coaching helps you be honest with yourself about what part of you is holding you back from living your best life. It’s facing the responsibility to live your own life without blaming others or giving into internal weaknesses. It’s setting you up for personal growth and fulfilling your dreams.
What Happens in a Coaching Appointment?
Coaching appointments take place by telephone and begin with a change for you to report on your progress and end with a clear set of action steps you choose to take in the week ahead.
But what is that essential spark between you and your coach that makes the relationship so transformational? Read on to discover four facets in coaching that lead to a fruitful outcome.
1. Coaching is a Transformational Conversation.
The biggest surprise for first-time clients is realizing that the coach isn’t there to give advice. Instead, powerful, incisive coaching questions stimulate you to examine the things in life that matter most from new angles. A coaching conversation can transform the way you look at life.
2. Coaching is a Transparent Relationship.
A coach is a friend and confidant, your greatest supporter, and someone who knows you well enough to call out the best in you. A transparent relationship with your coach frees you to go to places you’ve never gone before.
3. Coaching is a Support System for Change.
With support, encouragement, and accountability from someone who believes in us, we can do far more than we’d ever accomplish alone. A coach helps you stay on track, overcome obstacles, and convert your “want-to’s” into concrete steps that are put into your schedule.
4. Coaching is Continuous Leadership Development.
Coaches don’t give solutions; they help you solve your own problems. Coaching is helping you learn instead of telling you what to do. By leveraging every situation to build your capacity as a leader and a person, coaching prepares you to conquer much bigger challenges in the future.
What Can I Work On With a Coach?
The answer is, “Just about anything!” Increased performance, discovering your destiny, getting organized, regular exercise, slowing down, turning a dream into a reality — you only need to answer the question, “What do I want to accomplish?’
So if you want more from life — more growth, greater purpose, maximum performance — look into what a personal coach has to offer.
How does it work?
- Sessions are scheduled for 55 minutes at least twice per month and are conducted over the phone or video conference.
- A successful coaching relationship involves a minimum commitment of six months.
- A focused attitude about pursuing your own growth and your willingness to do the work will greatly enhance your results.
- Payment is handled via PayPal and sessions are paid one session in advance. Sessions are $147 each. The contract can be canceled if you reach your goals earlier than anticipated or if you are unhappy with the process.
