A deeper type of coaching
“All it takes is one insight, one moment to tap in, and that can change your life.”
Have you ever felt like there’s something more to life than what you’re currently experiencing?
Have you been involved with doing mental health, spiritual, or personal growth work for a long time yet still feel like you’re not getting to the core of what’s holding you back? Most of my clients come to me because they have been earnestly seeking for a long time – they have done the work; therapy, personal growth groups and workshops, spiritual practices and teachers, other coaching modalities, recovery – and yet, although they see that have made progress, they are still somehow dissatisfied with their life. There is a certain “x-factor” that they are just not getting to.
If this is how you feel, I can relate. I love working with clients who feel as though they have been searching and working on themselves for a long time yet are still feeling stuck. I live for creating that connection that will help them tap into their deepest insight and clarity about why they are not living their life to what they know to be its fullest. All it takes is one moment of true connection, one moment to tap in, one insight, and that can change everything for you. It really is that simple, and yet, it seems almost impossible to reach without the support of someone who knows how to hold space for you to get there. That is my gift. Yes, I provide traditional coaching services, can employ spiritual practices of all sorts, and have a vast knowledge and experience of working with trauma and helping people sift through the chaos of their past. Yes, we can look at how past experiences helped create limiting beliefs that are holding you back. But chances are, if you’ve gotten to this point and are reading this, you have already done most of that work – you already speak that language. We will go there, of course. I speak that language too, and to the extent that it’s necessary, I will take you there at an even deeper level. But insight happens right now – in the present moment. Whether it’s an insight about your past, present, or future, it always occurs in the here and now, and it always occurs within the context of a powerful conversation. I offer you a space in which that insight occurs. I am a specialized and nuanced practitioner who knows when to challenge you and knows when to be silent, simply existing as the mirror for your own insight. It always comes from within you, and yet, without someone to properly hold that space for you to discover it, it seems fleeting and just out of reach.
I have sat with numerous people over the years and watched the look in their eyes as the lightbulb turned on for them – the moment they realized that they are the love that they are seeking, that they are their own source of joy, purpose, and fulfillment. I live for that moment, because it was the moment that changed everything for me – the moment I was able to stop seeking and start tapping into my greatest gift, which I now want to share with you. We all have it within us, and if you’re reading this, you probably already know that, but maybe you just don’t believe it. Maybe you just haven’t experienced it yet, or worse, perhaps you have experienced it and have somehow forgotten. I understand that too – sustaining this source of inner wisdom can feel almost as difficult as finding it in the first place. However, once you have tapped into it, once you know it’s there, life can never be the same.
If this is speaking to you - resonating with you - good. Let’s talk.
Let’s have a powerful conversation. I can write about it all day, but I’d rather sit with you and have you experience this phenomenon of insight and transformation for yourself. You’ll know if it’s for you or not. I won’t work with you or make any sort of coaching agreement with you until we’re both certain that we feel right working with each other – coaching is a two-way street. We both need to feel a sense of safety and connection in the relationship or else it’s not going to work. I can’t and won’t work with you unless you are ready to make changes in your life, and my coaching style certainly isn’t for everyone. If it’s a good fit, then great. If not, then you’ll be led to the person, group, or path that is right for you.
Contact me and we will set up a time to connect. I do not offer “samples” or “teaser” sessions – our first meeting will be a full session in which we will explore a vision of what you desire your life to be, as well as what’s holding you back from being that. Come prepared to be vulnerable and dive right in. If we are meant to experience this journey together, insight is bound to occur. I look forward to meeting you in this celebration of the deepest aspects of your being, and until then I wish you the best on your journey.
What you can expect to receive:
· Deep insight into your individual process. This is the most important aspect of transformational coaching. Insight can happen in an instant, and one insight can radically change your entire way of looking at the world. By working with me you will gain clarity into what is holding you back from expressing your true potential. You will discover that within you lies a limitless source of insight and you will learn to be your own guide as you tap into this great potential of wisdom and clarity that you already possess.
· An understanding of your true self and your purpose in this world. Call it the Highest Self, the Soul, or simply the energy that animates you, this purpose exists within all of us. You have a purpose for being here on this planet, your life has profound meaning and there is a role to play that only you can fulfill. Through the coaching process, you will learn to differentiate conditioned ideas that you have about yourself from who you truly are. You will learn to correctly identify with this authentic self, and grow to live from this Higher place, creating lasting contentment and a profound sense of depth in your life.
· A somatic (full body) experience of your blocks, limiting beliefs, and core self. Unique to the Alchemy coaching process is a somatic, or “lived” experience of your core self. We do not just talk. I will guide you through experiential journeys or “vision quests” through your own consciousness. Utilizing techniques such as Internal Family Systems (IFS), breathwork, and guided visualization, you will learn to communicate with yourself and experience a visceral integration of the parts of you. Many describe this experience as a “coming home” to oneself. The experience is unique to every individual, but you will have a new, vast experience of who you are as a whole being, not just the ideas of yourself who you may believe yourself to be.
· Emotional agility. My coaching process is specifically designed to support your emotional expression and agility. No progress can be made unless we have access to and are utilizing our full range of emotional expression. The Alchemy process is specifically designed to be trauma-informed, meaning that we will not only talk about emotions but you will be guided in the full expression of your emotions, unlocking the parts of your nervous system which may be going underutilized. By integrating the emotional process back into your cognitive reasoning, you will learn to live from your whole being. You will experience a rich world of creativity and imagination beyond anything you have experienced before.
· Support to incorporate the insight you have experienced into your life. Now that you have tapped into the limitless source of insight that exists within you, what will you do with it? Although insight can happen in an instant, it takes consistent action and support to take the insights discovered and transform them into a life well lived. Our coaching process is designed to help you create and perform reasonable, consistent action which, over time, will transform your life into a more meaningful one.
· Someone in your corner all the time. During the coaching process, you will not only receive support in our powerful coaching sessions, but you will have access to personal support via text or phone calls as well. The transformational process is not limited to a couple of hours per week – insight can occur at any time and emotional processes unfold at their own pace. This is why I make myself available to my clients with a flexible plan of communication and support tailored specifically to your needs. If you need me, reach out – I will be there for you to join you on your journey every step of the way.
· Information and access to resources to help you build community. No person is an island, and no meaningful life can be built without the support of a community. The coaching process is designed to help you leverage the community that you already have in your life and, where needed, create a community of supportive co-collaborators who will help you share your vision. I will introduce you to communities that will help support your mental health and your personal growth and will join you in these communities to help be a part of your overall vision. You will learn to connect with others and grow in community so that you will have a built-in network of co-collaborators to help you support your vision.
· Connection with self, others, and spirit. Ultimately the goal of this coaching process is to help you experience greater connection. You will experience greater connection with your most authentic self, feel a part of a greater global community of leaders, and feel a deeper sense of meaning and purpose in your life. Whether you are a spiritual person or not, you will experience fulfillment that is about something greater than you, realizing that you are a part of the great tapestry of the Universe, and learning to source your power from being a part of that great vision.
