"Many
of us are afraid to follow our passions,to pursue what we want most
because it means taking risks and even facing failure. But to pursue
your passion with all your heart and soul is success in itself. The
greatest failure is to have never really tried."

WHAT IS COACHING?
Perhaps it would be easier
to discuss what coaching is not.
Coaching is not therapy or
a replacement for psychological counseling. As a general rule,
therapy is dealing with the past. Coaching is looking toward the
future. Therapy is about healing, coaching is about clarifying what
you want and then taking the action steps to help you achieve your
desired outcomes.
Coaching is an ongoing
relationship between a trained professional coach and an individual.
It is a process of discovery which takes place through private
conversations and skillfull questioning, designed to move you closer
toward your desired outcomes. Coaches have exceptional listening
skills. They are trained to hear both what is and isn't being said.
Your coach will work with you to develop your own strategic action
plans and unlike consultants, who give recommendations but leave the
client to implement them on their own, your coach will be with you on
your journey as you apply new skills and make positive changes to
your life.
Coaches make great sounding
boards and mentors. While being compassionate, you can always trust
your coach to tell you what they think, even when the truth may be
difficult to hear. It is this type of honesty that makes coaching so
successful. Your success, happiness and making the personal shifts to
improve the quality of your life is just as important to us as it is
to you. Your success is our success!
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Once you have made the
decision to form a coaching partnership with Trans4mations, you will
begin by having a indepth intake session. This takes approximately 2
hours, and includes a variety of assessment tools that will help
uncover your strengths, values, goals and any areas that you may want
to improve. This is a wonderful discovery program, where the focus is
soley on you. With your coach, you will build a strategy that will
work for your own personal style.
Once we have clarified the
area or goal that you would like to work on, we will schedule your
coaching sessions, normally 3 weeks out of every month. You can
contact your coach at any time between sessions by e-mail, or conduct
short check-in calls should the need arise. However we typically use
the 4th week to do additional research and plan for your following
month's schedule.
Coaching usually takes
place over the phone. It is the preferred method for busy people who
can save on the additional travel time getting to and from
appointments. If you live in or around the Virginia Beach area
however, we are happy to arrange personal consultations if that is
your preference.
WHAT KIND OF RESULTS CAN
I EXPECT?
The results from your
coaching will be a direct correlation to how committed you are in
taking the actions needed to reach your goals. While coaches are an
amazing breed of people, we are only human and need you to
participate in the process! We can help you gain clarity about what
you want, assist you in setting achievable goals, and be your loudest
cheerleader encouraging you along. However, at the end of the day it
is up to you. You must be committed to taking the action steps
required, otherwise you will not move from where you are now to where
you want to go.
For the committed,
coaching will help you:
HOW MUCH WILL IT COST?
The cost really does depend
on which coaching program you choose. We offer a free 30 minute
consultation to evaluate the best course of action that would suit
your time, budget and goal requirements. We work within every
budget range and will create a plan that is tailor made for your requirements.
DO I REALLY NEED A COACH
TO ACHIEVE MY GOALS?
Most people can live very
productive successful lives without the use of a coach. However if
you want to save time and reach your full potential sooner, rather
than later, then statistics have shown that working with a coach will
increase your chances of success enormously.
