How does Coaching work?
Coaching is a collaborative process, there is no telling you what to do, but instead uncovering what is best for you to achieve your goal and changes you need at this time of your life. Therefore, throughout our sessions I will seek to understand you, challenge your assumptions, help uncover your strengths and together come up with strategies and actions that will see you become the best dad you can be. Most sessions therefore will have a lot of me asking questions to help you understand yourself better, open up your options and create strategies to move forward in a productive, energized and focused way.
Before starting to coach anybody, I like a good 20-30 min (free) talk to understand your needs, expectations and also to see whether we connect. Coaching only works if there is absolute trust, if you are 100% committed to making the changes needed and if both parties are comfortable with each other, so this is a non-negotiable.
​
Once we agree on specific goals, time frames and get along, we will meet weekly or fortnightly, depending on needs and agreement. Alternatively phone or Zoom sessions are available as well, always between 45 and up to 60 minutes.
