The coaching of She does it:
- Offers positive energy, empathy, clarifying questions and challenges.
- Is personal and customized (not according to a standard rigid roadmap).
- Is both explorative and action oriented and therefore also practical.
- Is also possible in the evening (via Skype, phone or face to face).
You have a great job and you are very happy with it, but you also notice that you can hardly let go of your work.
Because of this you are not really listening when your children tell you about their day at school and you notice that your mind regularly wanders when you are eating with a friend. It also has been quite a while since you have done any exercise.
You feel guilty, because you are a committed mother and friend. And you want to live a healthy and active life.
But why is it not possible to enjoy this quality time with full attention or to exercise regularly?
You are not the only one…
As working women we have to keep a lot of balls in the air. Our ambitions, sense of responsibility and perfectionism also ensure that we would like to do everything perfect aswell.
In addition, we are dealing with an environment in which it is unfortunately still quite natural that a woman takes on more care and household duties than a man.
One of the first things colleagues asked me when I was pregnant with my first child was “What are you going to do with your job?”. My husband didn’t get these questions when he told his work he was going to be a father.
Do you recognize this?
Give direction to your life
The years in which you, as a woman, combine your career with a young family are tough years because of juggling those many ‘balls’ and environmental influences. You sometimes feel that you are being lived instead of being in control yourself.
With She does it coaching you manage to regain control over your own life. The coaching is ‘transformative’. We focus on how you as a person can grow towards your authentic self.
That may sound a bit ‘wishy washy’, but it is anything but empty. The coaching of She does it is both explorative and action oriented. You will be regularly busy with challenging assignments.
As a result it boosts your self-confidence. Regardless of new challenges, which will always keep coming, you know how to keep your course and give direction to your life.
You are capable of combining your professional and personal ambitions in a way that suits you.
Who doesn’t want that?
“Before the coaching I could be really hard on myself. I used to feel bad if I, for example, only did 8 of the 10 things on my to do list. Now I’m more forgiving and more accepting of the realities of life rather than striving for the perfect picture. That gives me a sense of achievement and also confidence of achieving the rest.
Another struggle was that I saw problems everywhere. That gave rise to a lot of negative energy and anxiety. With the coaching I’ve gained more clarity on what is important for me in my life and how my self-limiting beliefs negatively influence my actions.
This awareness is powerful and makes it possible for me to make choices and solve the problems I want to solve. For example, in the beginning of the coaching, I thought I cannot run my house without feeling inadequate and exhausted. But now I am proud at how I manage things at home.
This coaching has brought me awareness, acceptance and a way to deal constant challenges of my life. I’ve achieved a sense of confidence”.
Good rapport
I have personally experienced how effective it is to work with a coach at crucial moments in your life.
Despite all the fuss, it helps you to stay in balance and to discover new possibilities.
I compare a coach with a sports trainer. Sports helps you to stay physically healthy. A coach helps you to stay emotionally fit.
You work intensively together with a coach. Therefore, you also want to have good rapport. If there isn’t a good chemistry then the result will be disappointing.
So, orientate yourself well!
Here you can read more about my background and in this video I give you more information about how we work together.
I’ve read enough and think we could build a good rapport!
Of course, this session would be both confidential and entirely free of obligation.
Steps forward
I regularly get the question: “What exactly do you do as a coach?”
I understand that the term coach and, for example, a therapist are sometimes mixed up.
As a coach I take the present as a starting point and from there we make steps forward. A coach works therefore future-oriented.
A therapist focuses on solving problems that arise from the past and that hinder one’s functioning in the present.
“Beforehand, I was sceptical, because I find the term ‘coaching’ a bit vague. In addition, for me, as a working woman with children, these are hectic years anyway, so I wondered if I could improve anything at all.
What I quickly noticed was that I got energy from the coaching. If I was tired beforehand, I always had more energy afterwards.
Because of the coaching, I consciously managed to schedule time for myself, while I actually thought there was no room for it. The most concrete example is that I started running and I thought I didn’t like sports at all. Now I even signed up for a running event of 7.5 kilometers!”
Internationally recognized
Nowadays everyone can call themselves ‘coach’. Coach is not a protected profession. If you go to the doctor, you know what you can expect in terms of quality. Unfortunately, this is not the case with coaches.
How do you know that you make a good choice? In addition to a good rapport, you can pay attention to the education someone has followed and the quality labels you see on a website.
Unfortunately, nowadays there is a proliferation of quality labels and that is why I wanted to follow a course that is internationally high regarded and guarantees quality within the professional coaching world.
I joined the Co-Active Training Institute and got certified as a Professional Co-Active Coach (CPCC). I’m also a licensed Firework Career Coach.
Excuse me for the following boring piece of text, but I would like to share it with you.
Co-Active Coaching is the largest personal (so not online) coaching training programme in the world. It is considered to be the most rigorous program available for professional coaching development, given the many training and practice hours.
Both the Co-Active Coach training and the Firework Career Coach program are accredited by the International Coaching Federation. This international organization focuses on promoting the quality of the coaching profession by setting high standards, offering independent certification and building a worldwide network of trained coaching professionals.
