What is Coaching?

Coaching is a partnership where the total focus is on you and how to help you achieve what you really want in life. A Coach is:

• someone you can deeply trust, who has a lot of respect for you, and wants only the best for you. If you had a professor who was supportive of you or maybe a business mentor at one time, then you have experienced what a coach can offer.
• someone who is extremely supportive of you in an area at which you want to improve or excel? Think of the guidance a wonderful athletic coach or music teacher may have provided you at one point in your life.
• Someone who's agenda is your agenda
• Someone focused on your future, not so much your past or the causes that lead you to where you are now
• Not a therapist
