What is Life & Business Coaching?
Life & Business coaching is something that a lot of people are curious about. Most people do not understand coaching.
- Maybe you haven't tried it yet, and you might not know anybody else who has tried it either.
- You wonder if you will get value from it.
- You wonder if I am any good at it.
- You may be confused by all the different offers, expertise and certifications of competing coaches.
To sum it up, most clients come to a new service like coaching with their share of doubts and questions. I'm here to help answer some of those questions.
Why Would Someone Need A Life and/or Business Coach?
There is something powerful that happens when you begin working with a coach.
A coach is someone who can help you work through the everyday stresses that come from any number of places. We live in a very stressful world. Some people have stressful jobs, some have stressful families, some have stressful schooling. It seems that the world becomes faster paced every year.
A coach is someone you can get advice from on any number of topics.
A coach is someone who can give you unbiased advice about life and/or business issues. Someone to talk things over with and get opinions from. Someone who can give you insights that a best friend or relationship partner may be too involved to give you.
A coach can help redirect you if you've lost your way and just need to get back on track. A coach can be someone you can mastermind with and get ideas from.
A coach does not tell you what to do, rather helps you figure out what is best for you.
A coach can help you "stop the chatter" in your life and figure out what you really want.
* Please do not confuse life coaching with therapy. Life coaches are not trained in psychology, just life.
What is the Goal of a Coach?
My goal as a life and business coach is to help you live a better, more fulfilled life. If you don't know what that is right now, that's OK. I can help you figure out what YOU really want. I help bring out YOUR inner talents.
What does a Life Coach Cost?
I will provide you with a free half hour telephone consultation. At that point, we will assess what you will need from me and what the cost will be.
A typical coaching schedule is structured like this:
- One 60 minute session per week.
- Two as needed half hour sessions (with advance notice of approximately 24 hours) per month.
- An unlimited number of email support sessions (please do not abuse this privilege - if you send me jokes or chain emails or spam me in any way, your sessions will be terminated and your money will not be refunded). I will send you only emails that I feel will be beneficial to your individual case.
You may need more or less than the average. I will not know that until I speak with you. Everyone's needs are different. I don't coach everyone exactly the same (I'm not a robot and neither are you), therefore, I don't have the same price for every coaching client. The cost is based on your needs and situation.
We will discuss YOUR needs at your free telephone consultation.
Group coaching options are also available from time to time. While these generally cost less per person, you do not get the individual time with me that you would with a one on one coaching schedule. There are pros and cons. These sessions are generally not at your convenience, however, masterminding in a group is more beneficial for some clients. Others prefer the individual one on one sessions.
Why Hire Roxanne?
There are a lot of people out there who are "certified" life coaches. I'm not one of them. I may, at some point in the future, decide to become certified. I am of the opinion that one can never stop learning, reaching and growing. I do, however, have a lot of real life experience. In most certification programs, you must volunteer a certain amount of time to coach people and gain real life experience. I have more that already.
Let me ask you this - if your marriage was in trouble, who would you rather go to for help:
1. Someone who read books about how to have a great marriage, but had never been married
or
2. A couple who has been happily married for 30+ years?
What "Real Life" Experience Does Roxanne Have?
For 25+ years, I have been the "go to gal" for most of my family and friends. When they have a problem and need help, they come to me. If they need someone who will listen and help them sort things out, they come to me.
I now have teenage and adult children of my friends coming to me for help. That's because they have seen that the one constant in their lives has been Mom or Dad calls Roxanne when they need help. We learn from our parents how to deal with situations. So they now call me or email me or come see me.
I've coached a wide variety of people from the average mom to business owners. Read some of the testimonials here .
Be sure to tell me briefly why you want a coach.
You MUST include your phone number AND email to receive a response.
Please be sure to include a couple times over the next week that will be good for you to have a consultation by phone. I will email within 24 hours and let you know what time works best for me and give you instructions as to what to do at the appointed time.
