As your coach she will

1. Notice if and where resources and strengths are going unnoticed.
2. Listen for attitudes and choices that do not support you, based on where you say you want to go.
3. Reflect back to you what is working and not working from a Meta, objective position(based on what you say you are hoping to achieve).
4. Help you to consider the learning of any given situation. We do not learn from experience but by reflecting on experience.
5. Facilitate an increase in awareness of choices that serve you and then encourage more of that behaviour i.e. do more of what works and less of what doesn’t.
6. Provide a different perspective on the issue. We exist of many different levels; a lack of awareness of the influence of multi-dimensions can contribute to a problem.
7. Help you gain clarity in diagnosing specifically and strategically what needs to be addressed first. We need to understand our predicament in order to move beyond it.
8. Keep you focused on solutions and explore how to take small steps towards them.
9. Share knowledge and information that is relevant and helpful to you. Knowledge leads to awareness which in turn leads to healthier choices and improved quality of life
10. Be present, do her best and make sure our sessions last only as long as they are helpful and beneficial
