Life Coaching

We all come to points in our lives when we feel that we are stuck or that we’d like to make a change, but don’t know how.  Whether you’re looking for greater life wellness, considering a job or career change, or feeling alone in some important decision-making, I will objectively support you while being fully engaged in your goals.  I help my clients illuminate a path that works for them, while supporting, stretching and encouraging them along the way.  ‘Illuminate’ is an important word, because it means the answers are within you, they just need to be discovered.  Contact me to Illuminate You!

See what my clients are saying about coaching!

What is Coaching?
Coaching is a newer profession and it can be a confusing word because most of us think of coaches as having specific expertise in a particular field (or sport).  A professionally trained Coach has expertise in the ‘process’ of coaching, which evokes from the client information that becomes the stepping stones of the path being discovered.  As a result, Coaches don’t need expertise in any one area, just the expertise in how to best draw information from the client so they can work together to create a path that works for the client.

How does Coaching differ from other relationships:
Unlike teaching, we’ll collaborate and learn from each other
Unlike counseling, you’ll look ahead towards the possibilities for you
Unlike friendships, objective facilitation will challenge you towards your goals
Unlike mentoring, your experience is the foundation for progress
Unlike consulting, you’ll establish your own desired actions

Who can benefit from Coaching?
All kinds of people will benefit
:                        Who are in a multitude of situations:

* Business Owners                                            * Business growth
* Spouses/Partners                                           * Life planning
* Managers                                                       * Productivity/Morale improvement
* New Graduates                                              * Workplace integration
* Salespersons                                                  * Interpersonal skill development
* Employees in transition/Students                   * Career-pathing
* Professionals                                                 * Work/Life balance
* Entrepreneurs                                                * Business launch
* Executives                                                     * Career development
* Employees                                                      * Workplace enrichment
* Anyone……                                                       * Wanting to progress in their lives…..

I work with many of these people in many of these situations.  Because of my personal wellness journey, I also enjoy working with women who want ‘wholistic’ life wellness within mind, body, spirit and emotion.  It goes beyond work/life balance for these women – they are looking for life wellness balance!  I offer a PowerCircle for women with chronic conditions as well as personal coaching for those women seeking ‘wholistic’ life wellness.

What should I expect a Coaching relationship to involve?
At the start of our partnership, you’ll receive some pre-work to complete prior to our first meeting.  We’ll meet initially in-person for an orientation to discuss the pre-work, your current situation and where you ideally want to be.  Afterwards, we’ll meet periodically on the phone to touch base, revamp and assess things as you progress towards your goals.  Be prepared, as I will challenge you and encourage you along the way!  The duration of our partnership will depend upon you, the progress you are making and your goals.

What is the investment I need to make in Coaching?
Coaching is only successful if you are prepared to invest your mind, body and spirit towards the development of YOU!  A typical coaching package involves a time investment of about two hours per month for coaching, which usually consists of three 40-minute phone calls per month.  The time investment for your goal work in-between calls will be totally up to you.  90 days is a great timeframe to target initially for maximal success, as it will allow time for you to make progress and fine-tune your goals along the way.  Your monetary coaching investment can range from $97 per month to $487 per month, depending on the level of individualized support you are seeking.

What Christine’s clients are saying about coaching:

“The PowerCircle has been such a positive, uplifting experience for me!  There were times when I didn't feel up to participating in the call - but afterwards I was so glad I did because it completely lifted my spirits and gave me much needed encouragement in facing my life's challenges.

Christine shares powerful techniques and insights with the group in how to deal with issues everyone is facing.  I'm also very touched by the other women on the call who genuinely care and want to help each other.  All in all it is just a great experience!”

Sandy, Computer Programmer, NJ

  ------------------------------------------------------------------------

“I entered a working relationship with Chris needing relief from my grueling work life, more time for my family and support in the stress that a chronic illness can create.  She helped me explore numerous options in my quest for wellness including traditional and unconventional means as well.

Working together in our sessions has led to a progression of change and decision making which I had been avoiding for years.  Having always felt limited in my career choices, Chris guided me down a path which broke through boundaries enabling me to see my life possibilities with new perspective.  Now I am comfortable moving forward into the unknown one step at a time.  Sincerely grateful,”

Linda, Department Store Manager, MD

  ------------------------------------------------------------------------

“The time Christine devoted to my coaching was instrumental in my being able to focus my energies on the important things in my business and my life, and be able to let go of the things that I could delegate to someone else to do, for my own sanity!

The benefit of coaching for me was to free up time that I needed for more detail oriented
things. I definitely have less stress and can focus on the things I need to do instead of being distracted.  It has also helped me gain more confidence in computer related things and knowing how to work with merchandise representatives.  It’s hard to put a dollar figure on that!”

Melinda, Event Planning Small Business Owner, TN

  ------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Over the years, I have heard of people working with life coaches.  I was curious and thought this was something I could benefit from.  It seemed like such a personal thing and I had no clue where to find a coach...  The universe sent Christine!

My objective for coaching was to achieve balance in my career and personal lives.  I was completely consumed in my job (and a long tiresome commute).  I was able to turn my employment situation around to fit in with my personal life.  

Christine takes a thoughtful approach in helping a client realize his goals and then guides the client to achieve them.

Christine is also a master of communication.  She taught me how to communicate more effectively by speaking to others based on their behavioral styles.  This training has proven to be quite powerful in all aspects of my life.  

I would highly recommend Christine to anyone who wants to make a change in his life no matter how big or small.  It is your life and you deserve to have whatever you want!”

Kerry, Independent Design Consultant, NJ

  ------------------------------------------------------------------------

“At a time in my career when I was having difficulty deciding in which direction to go, Christine and her life coaching methods really made a difference.

Unlike seminars that preach to you the way you should do things, Christine allowed me to find my way without any pressure. Her thought provoking exercises and asking the right questions made me think and feel what I needed.  In the end I was able to make the correct choice for not only my career, but my personal life as well.

Whether it is a personal problem or career difficulties life coaching will help you make the right decisions and feel good about them.  I believe that Life Coaching is something everyone should take advantage of at some point in their life.

Christine thanks you so much for all of your help!”

Stacy, Sales Professional, NJ

  ------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Christine served as both my career counselor and Life coach at a time when I was struggling through an intensive job search and many of the related personal issues that can arise during such a trying period.  Her objective yet empathetic manner and straight-forward approach quickly established a comfortable working relationship that fostered open and honest communication.

I found Christine to be very intuitive and articulate, asking insightful questions that often prompted me to look inside myself for the answers, which, of course, is where many of the answers reside.  Applying her business experience and interpersonal skills, she was a tremendous help to me in analyzing problems and dismantling them into manageable pieces.  This technique enabled me to stay focused on the task at hand, continuously move forward in a positive direction, and ultimately achieve my targeted goals.

 

Overall, Christine was the consummate professional coach who demonstrated a sincere interest in my future success in both my business and personal lives."
