What will you gain from Coaching?
- Supercharge your identity: amplify what makes you, well, you.
- Embrace creative liberation: Say goodbye to blocks.
- Outcomes: Dream deeply, then let’s get those dreams in motion with goals that truly resonate.
- Master your journey: Change? That’s just another word for adventure.
- Build resilience: Challenges? Psh. With a sprinkle of resilience and a dash of daring, you’re all set to conquer.
Coaching and Mentoring are typically a series of one-on-one creative conversations focused entirely on you. Both focus on your future and challenge what’s holding you back.
In a snapshot?
Coaching is a non-directive, collaboration between you and a coach. A coach usually won’t tell you what to do.
Mentoring is a more directive relationship between two people. A mentor might offer suggestions based on their own experiences.
Delve a little deep:
Transformational Coaching
I’m all about transformative coaching. It mixes the best bits from different coaching styles to help with all sorts of goals.
But, what exactly is Transformative Coaching?
Think of transformative coaching as a more well-rounded way of coaching. Instead of just focusing on performance and achieving goals, it looks at the whole person – their thoughts, feelings, senses, and relationships. It’s about understanding you fully, beyond just the surface.
This approach helps uncover deeper insights, enabling people to make big, positive changes in their lives. It breaks down barriers and opens up new possibilities for achieving what they really want.
It is also crucial to understand this is a partnership, focused entirely on you.
A Transformative Approach
This is really more of a philosophy or way of doing things. It’s focusing on the you, drawing from a variety of approaches to meet your unique needs, and supporting you to develop personal accountability.
There are 5 elements that seamlessly connect:
- Experiential: We will start by deeply exploring what your experience of life is really like.
- Psychological: We will look at both the inner and outer you, understanding your beliefs, values, and the patterns that shape your life.
- Humanistic: We begin with the believe you’re already whole and have everything you need to make changes.
- Systemic and Holistic: We recognise that you’re part of bigger systems that affect, challenge and support you, and hold the impact of that.
- Integrative: We blend ideas from many different areas of coaching to find the best route of change for you.
It’s all about helping you understand yourself better and making lasting changes in your life.
NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming)
NLP is often called the “user’s manual for your mind,” which is a fancy way of saying it helps us learn how our thinking shapes our lives.
NLP, or Neuro-Linguistic Programming, is a bit like a toolbox that comes from mixing ideas from science and more out-there fields. It’s designed to be easy for anyone to use, to make things better, support your well-being, and spark change.
Breaking it down, NLP teaches us how our brain deals with the words we choose and how this affects everything from our past to our future. It’s like having a playbook for understanding people and learning from both the good and the bad. The bottom line? Change is totally doable. You just need to understand why it’s important to you, and be open to trying new ways of interacting with your thoughts and the people around you.
Mentoring
Mentoring, usually, takes a more hands-on, directive approach to your advancement. Traditionally, mentors were those in a new role, learn the ropes.
A mentor will generally have more knowledge, skills, and experience in their particular field than the person they are mentoring, and they share this wisdom openly. With me, this might include;
- Theatre
- Theatre Management
- Facilitation
- Community Development
- Access, Inclusion and Diversity (inc. LGBTQ+)
- Self-employment
Mentors may also help their mentee develop key industry contacts, identify specific helpful resources, and explore areas of focus.
The critical thing here is that you are expecting greater context specific experience, knowledge, guidance and advice from a mentor. There is also a clear, if sometimes informal, sense of authority in a mentoring relationship.
What is a Discovery Chat?
A Discovery Chat is short conversation to meet each other, get clear on how we might work together, and make sure we are a good match. You’d don’t need to prepare anything, just find a quite space, and bring a cuppa and note pad.
How many sessions should I have? And how often?
The number of session and frequency will depend on what your focus is, and the depth you want to go to.
