Launching a Practice...

The practice of Life Coaching that is! 

It's been nearly a year since completing a Life Coaching course, and one year of study with Argosy University towards a Bachelors degree in Psychology. I gained a passion for working with people during my time as a Sales and Business Development manager where simple practices of setting goals, working plans and writing out goals and dreams were foundational to lives changing for the better both personally and business wise.

During the last years of employment I had the honor of mentorship by a very wise manager who being immersed in Stephen Covey's "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" guided me into a realm of self actualization. The focus on was coaching others to realize the same seven principles by practice and education and all without judgement. He clued me into all the puzzle pieces of unlocking other peoples potential in ways that were meaningful to them. It was not normal management using methods of telling but of asking. Lots of questions. Asking questions at levels which brought about insight and revelation to the one giving answers.

All those experiences opened my eyes to a new calling and ultimately gave cause to leave the corporate world of sales into this new vocation of Life Coaching. My aim is to become an Art Therapist when I finally finish my Master's but in the meantime, it's a goal to practice the art of Life Coaching - a life ANew!
