WHAT IS LIFE COACHING?
According to world-renowned coaching expert, Timothy Gallwey, "Coaching is unlocking a person's potential to maximize their own performance. It is helping them to learn new and better strategies, rather than teaching them." At PS Coaching, we work on:
- Clarifying personal and professional goals
- Considering new life paths to create what you really want
- Strategizing to remove obstacles and reach goals
- Stretching beyond limiting beliefs, establishing new habits, and doing "it"
- Defining what happiness and success mean to you
- Revealing your unique capabilities
- Providing continuous support and encouragement
WHEN DO YOU NEED A LIFE COACH?
- When you feel something is missing in your life
- When you dread going to work each day
- When your relationships aren't working
- When you have a great idea but just can't make it happen
- When you're feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, tired...
- When you're not earning what you're worth
- When you want help designing your future
| "Working with Pamela enabled me to make a successful transition to a new culture and country. At the same time, it opened the doors to starting my own profitable home-based business and begin creative projects that enhance my life every day. Pamela's "no holds barred" approach allowed me to confront my fears in a supportive and powerful way. Our next project: health and energy....look out!!!"

WHAT LIFE COACHING IS NOT
Life Coaching is NOT therapy. Therapy helps people grow from the inside out and focuses more on self awareness and self knowledge, often by examining the past. Although coaching and therapy may have some overlap, coaching is action oriented; working on getting from the Present to the Desired Future by undertaking a series of specific concrete actions. In fact, coaching is often sought out by people who are basically well-adjusted and successful. However, in their success, they realize they can go even further if they just make a few adjustments in their lives. That is why they are savvy enough to hire a coach who will help them do just that.
Life Coaching is NOT just pleasant smalltalk. Although coaching conversations are often pleasant, a coach's job is to help you move forward in a way that is totally in keeping with who you are and what you want - at work and in life. There will sometimes be moments of discomfort when a particularly sensitive area is discussed. It is in recognizing these obstacles that deep learning is facilitated and positive change is lasting. The coaching conversation needs to be both relevant and resonant. The coach and the client need to start the session ready to work.
Life Coaching is NOT about giving you the answers. It's about co-creating your future and guiding you to figure out your own answers. It's about helping you become a better communicator with YOURSELF because when you do, you naturally live and work better and smarter; and are able to optimize your protential.
Life Coaching is NOT something that can be done effectively by just anyone. The best coaches offer more than good listening skills and good advice; they possess a mastery of advanced communication and relationship skills, coupled with specific training, experience, knowledge and a special commitment to helping others flourish. By carefully selecting a coach who has the appropriate professional credentials and relevant experience, and with whom you feel a rapport, you will ensure that your coaching experience is a powerful one.
