What was the biggest reason that you wanted coaching? What did you hope to learn?

I wanted to learn how to get credit for my ideas, due to how my ideas are heard and if I am listened to appropriately and not be dismissed or not brought up in meetings. I also wanted to be more fluent in communications as well as in meetings, team meetings, or team meetings with other peers or managers and things like that. Also to be able to disagree tactfully as well, not to be in meetings and disagree and then it just devolves into an argument.

What would you say would be the most important thing you have learned in the course of coaching?

I think the most important thing is how to create my own reality from conversations that we have in meetings. Somebody might say something that I can take two ways. Typically, I may be emotional about it and go a negative way but I have learned that I can actually take their words as positive and not allow it to affect my psyche.

Talk a little bit about how life is different after communication coaching, what wins could you share with us?

After coaching I have definitely seen in meetings where I am getting more credit for my work and find it was actually surprisingly (laughing) not what I came to coaching for but also other things like just having more fluid meetings, being able to connect with different people in meetings and things like that. I think it has definitely helped so far.

What would you tell someone who is considering getting private coaching from me?

I'd tell them they should definitely reach out and go through the process of the first call which is a free introductory call with no obligation, and see if it is a good fit for them.  I think you do a good job on the evaluation and things like that.
​I would definitely tell them they shouldn't waste time and start that process.​
