Living your best life...
Living your best life, living a life that makes you happy and allows you be at your full potential - something most would like to achieve. So how is this desirable state reached? The journey starts with intentional living, choosing how we live life, living life on our own terms and focussing on being the best version of ourselves that we can possibly be.
Intentional living, making choices based on personal values, beliefs and goals, trying to think ahead and choose things that affect life positively can be achieved with life-coaching. A journey of self-discovery, life coaching helps raise awareness of areas of life that are working well and those that may benefit from some reflection. An effective way of gaining understanding of thoughts and feelings, of creating clarity about hopes and fears, it provides a safe space to explore possible options and to create a strategy for forward movement.
Parent coaching
Parenting is one of life's biggest and most important roles..
A role of huge responsibility, it is one we take on without training or a manual, quite literally we learn on the job! It is no surprise that at some stage of their parenting journey most parents encounter times of uncertainty, challenge, or require reassurance. As joyful and fulfilling as family life can be, it can also bring challenges and coaching offers insight and practical guidance to enable families to maximise the highs and minimise the lows.
You do not need to be a new parent to benefit from coaching, each age and stage of development can bring both joy and challenge. Coaching helps identify parenting strengths, to develop a plan to address challenges and is effective in forward planning and preparing for the future. The skills learned during the early years can be built upon and updated to maximise effect when parenting tweens and teens!
How can coaching help?
Parent coaching can help with all aspects of being a parent. Whether focussing on parenting skills or supporting the needs of a child, it facilitates a journey of self-discovery. It offers guidance to help reach parenting goals, to overcome obstacles and to explore techniques to assist in responding to the ever changing demands of family life.
Aiming to provide the knowledge, tools and confidence to enable parents to raise and educate children to the best of their ability, coaching is a gentle, empowering experience, that can be used to create clarity about parenting and family life as a whole.
I take a scaffolded learning approach to provide a range of knowledge and skills that can be used in isolation or together to create a solid foundation for positive parenting and flourishing family life. Some of the many areas of discussion are outlined below...
Acutely aware that every parent, child, family and situation is unique, I encourage you to request a complimentary call to explore how coaching may be of benefit.

Why life coaching?
There are many reasons people come to coaching:
- Unsure of what you would like from life?
- Looking for a deeper understanding of yourself?
- Lacking direction?
- Feeling challenged?
- Is there something you would like to change?
- Is there something you would like to achieve?
Whatever your chosen area of focus or exploration, coaching provides the opportunity to consider where you are in life and what you would like from it, helping you create a vision of where you want to be and a plan to get there.
I can provide guidance in an array of areas, from navigating a significant life change to achieving a happier more meaningful life. Whatever the focus, coaching offers a supportive empowering relationship that aids forward movement by highlighting and making the most of personal strengths and providing strategies to overcome perceived areas of weakness. A motivating journey of self-discovery life coaching can help you life the life you want to live!

What are the benefits?
There are many benefits to life coaching: it will help you to gain a better understanding of who you are, to identify your skills and talents, to discover meaning and purpose. A skilled coach helps you consider all areas of life and narrow down what you would like to focus on and what might be holding you back from achieving it. Whatever your reason for coming to coaching, the supportive, non-judgemental and empowering process acts as an effective springboard for forward movement and success.
Coaching is effective in raising levels of self-awareness and recognition of thoughts that can be limiting or create mental blocks that hinder or stop achievement. Employing open, catalytic questions and deep listening skills, I will help you clarify your desires and support you to identify the steps needed to achieve them. Aside from supporting you to reach your goals, coaching builds and enhances essential life skills that can positively impact relationships and life.
