How Peaceful Path Coaching Works
 
  
Decide If Coaching Is Right For You

Answer the following statement. Give yourself 1 point for every statement you agree with.
  • I am ready now to accept coaching in my life and I recognize the benefits it can create for 
        me.
  • Coaching works in small, incremental steps over time. I feel comfortable knowing that it
        may take at least three months before I see significant results.
  • I understand that in coaching, the client does the work, not the coach.
  • I am ready and willing to stretch and grow into the possibilities that are there for me.
  • I am willing to take responsibility for my own actions.
  • I am willing to be honest and speak the truth with my coach so that I get what I want from
        coaching.
  • I am flexible and willing to try new ways of doing things and a new way of being.
  • I am willing to let go of thoughts and behaviors that are not working for me and replace

        them with ones that do.
  • I am prepared to invest time in myself outside of my coaching calls by completing any
        goals I set for myself.
  •  
    I have the financial resources to invest in myself and my future by starting coaching now. 
     

8-10 Points      Individual coaching is right for you now!

5-7 Points        Coaching may be uncomfortable for you at this time. You will benefit from the 
                        coaching relationship to the extent that you are willing to grow and change, even
                        when it may be inconvenient or painful.

1-4 Points        Individual coaching is not right for you at this time. Try taking a group coaching
                        workshop or teleclass, seek professional help with some of the challenges you are
                        facing, or visit us when your circumstances are more conducive to you benefiting
                        from coaching.
 
 

Determine If You Exhibit These Characteristics

Clients who are serious about their success share these characteristics:

 

  • They recognize the importance of the Inner Work. My clients understand that what
        shows up in their life is the direct result of their thoughts and beliefs. They are ready to
        explore the beliefs that are holding them back and are open to changing those beliefs to
        help them create the life they want.
  • They commit to completing the Outer Work they create for themselves. I expect
        my clients to hold themselves accountable for moving closer to their vision. This forward  
        movement encourages more of the same, and clients benefit most when they are diligent
        about following through and completing their assignments.
  • They honor themselves by investing in their self-care. My clients are all
        magnificent, and I encourage them to really believe this. A key way of expressing this self-
        respect is by practicing extreme self-care. If you are able to adequately nourish your mind,
        body, emotions and Spirit, you will find it easier to function in other areas of your life.
  • They honor their commitments. My clients walk their talk. They come to our coaching
        sessions prepared and on time. They keep their promises to others and most importantly,
        they keep their promises to themselves.
     

 

Complimentary Discovery Session

The way to decide whether coaching with me is right for you is to experience a 30-45 minute Discovery Session. During our time together you have the opportunity to feel what coaching is like and learn more about the way I coach. The only cost to you for the Discovery Session will be long distance phone charges you incur. Should you decide my services would be of value to you, your next step will be to:

  1. Decide how you would like to be coached, and
  2. Schedule your Foundation Session
     

 

How Do You Want To Be Coached?

Peaceful Path Coaching offers three levels of services:

 
It is possible to customize a package that includes multiple levels of services.

 

 

The Foundation Session

The Foundation Session is the first paid session we will have together, and it is the only session that is based on my agenda. Prior to the session, you will receive a Welcome Packet via email with an intake form and some worksheets to complete. During our Foundation Session I want to learn more about your dreams, values, limiting beliefs, and learning styles. I will go over my policies and expectations in more detail and answer any questions you have about the overall process. It is here that we will create a foundation for our coaching relationship. For those coaching by phone, this initial session will be about 90 minutes. Those who choose to coach by email will complete and return their packet, and our first exchange will be about the information in the packet. 
 
 

Coaching Sessions

All levels of coaching occur weekly during the first three weeks of each month.The last week of the month gives you some time to reflect and celebrate your successess and to regroup and renew your commitment to the coming month's work.
