Leadership development, career performance and proactive mental wellness coaching

Recent Gallup Polls show that the average full-time employee works nearly 50 hours per week and often complains of having difficulty balancing work with the rest of their life. Almost 20 percent of the U.S. population suffers from anxiety and we generally rank low on global Happiness Indexes.

In the past decade, major discoveries have been made in the field of neuroscience revealing a person’s lifelong capacity to rewire old patterns, develop new habits and literally change the structure of the brain by forming new neural pathways and increasing the density of gray matter in areas associated with self-awareness and introspection. This has huge implications in how we integrate work and life, personal well-being, optimal performance at work, healthy relationships, a life that’s in alignment with one’s values, and an overall sense of happiness. Whether you would like to enhance productivity, increase your ability to focus, deepen your interpersonal skills, reduce stress, discover your purpose, or find a sense of fulfillment and contentment, all of these goals are within your grasp at any stage of your life.

Coaching is an effective and rewarding approach to re-patterning habits and designing the life you want to live. Over the course of your coaching, you can expect…

  • Support and encouragement defining professional and personal goals

  • Guidance for identifying and implementing strategies to meet your goals

  • Someone to hold you accountable to the goals you set

  • Reflection of your thought processes so you can identify positive and negative constructs, recurring themes, and other patterns, which will help you get out of your rut and create a narrative that serves both you and those around you

  • Examination of strengths and competencies as well as reactive tendencies.

  • Guidance as you learn to redirect habitual responses away from anxiety producing thoughts into energy producing ideas and behaviors

  • Direction through an individualized process that will help you attain clarity, understanding, and a returned feeling of aliveness

  • A sense of empowerment so that you can fully trust yourself as you discover your own inner guidance during this process of identifying meaning, purpose and creativity

An important piece of coaching is the time you will spend evaluating your values, core assumptions, obstacles, and struggles that you have been facing in your life. Many highly motivated professionals can sabotage their engagement at work and in relationships through “negativity bias,” which explains how negative thoughts, emotions, or social interactions are more compelling than positive ones. But research shows that we can rewire neuropathways, regulate our thoughts, emotions and reactions, and cultivate happiness, compassion, and joy instead of remaining in the rut of anxiety, fear and overwhelm.

Coaching is a powerful tool for leveraging the research of neuroscience with the practicality of defining and implementing personal and professional goals that allow you to reach your full potential and live a fulfilling life.
