FAQs

About Transformational Coaching in General:

• What is transformational coaching and how is it different from other types of coaching or therapy? Transformational coaching is a powerful partnership designed to create deep and lasting shifts in your perspective, beliefs, and ultimately, your life. Unlike traditional problem-solving coaching that often focuses on specific goals or skill development, transformational coaching delves into the core of who you are and how you experience the world. It’s not therapy, which typically focuses on healing past wounds and addressing mental health concerns. Instead, transformational coaching empowers you to uncover your authentic self, break free from limiting patterns, and create a future aligned with your deepest desires and potential. It’s about evolving into the most vibrant and true version of yourself.
• What kind of results can I expect from transformational coaching? While every individual’s journey is unique, many clients experience profound and empowering results through transformational coaching. You can expect to gain greater clarity about your values and purpose, develop unwavering confidence in yourself and your decisions, learn to live more authentically in alignment with your true self, reignite passions that may have been dormant, break free from limiting beliefs that have held you back, cultivate more joy and intention in your daily life, and develop a clear and compelling vision for your future. Ultimately, you can expect to feel more empowered, fulfilled, and in control of creating a life you truly love.
• How long does transformational coaching typically last? The duration of transformational coaching is often a deeply personal decision and depends on the depth of change you’re seeking and your individual pace. While some initial shifts can occur relatively quickly, creating lasting and profound transformation usually involves a commitment of several months. My signature “Live Bold Live True” program is a focused 12-week journey designed to create significant momentum and tangible results. However, some clients choose to continue working with me beyond that to deepen their growth and integrate their transformations further. We can discuss what feels like the right timeframe for you during your complimentary discovery call.
• What is the coach’s role in my transformation? As your transformational coach, my role is to be your dedicated guide, supportive partner, and empowering facilitator on your journey. I’m here to listen deeply, ask powerful and thought-provoking questions, offer fresh perspectives, and provide tools and frameworks to help you uncover your own inner wisdom and answers. I won’t tell you what to do, but I will help you see things differently, challenge limiting beliefs, and tap into your own inherent strengths and potential. My aim is to empower you to become your own best guide and create lasting change from within.
• What kind of issues or challenges can transformational coaching help with? Transformational coaching is effective for a wide range of issues and challenges, particularly for women who are feeling:
  • A sense of unfulfillment despite external success.
  • Lost or unsure about their true identity and desires.
  • Weighed down by “shoulds” and external expectations.
  • A lack of passion or joy in their lives.
  • Held back by limiting beliefs and self-doubt.
  • Navigating significant life transitions (career change, empty nest, relationship shifts).
  • A desire to live more authentically and boldly.
• How do I know if transformational coaching is right for me? Transformational coaching is likely a good fit if you are:
  • Ready and willing to engage in deep self-reflection.
  • Committed to making meaningful and lasting changes in your life.
  • Open to exploring new perspectives and challenging your current ways of thinking.
  • Desiring a more authentic, purposeful, and joyful existence.
  • Willing to invest time, energy, and resources in your personal growth. The best way to determine if my coaching is the right fit for you is to schedule a complimentary discovery call. We can discuss your specific goals and see if my approach resonates with you.
• What happens in a typical coaching session? A typical coaching session is a dedicated time for us to connect and focus entirely on you and your journey. Sessions are usually held virtually via Zoom or phone, offering flexibility and convenience. During a session, I will actively listen to you, ask powerful questions to deepen your self-awareness, help you explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment, and guide you in identifying goals and creating actionable steps. We may also explore specific tools and techniques to challenge limiting beliefs or gain new perspectives. The session is a collaborative space for you to gain clarity, feel supported, and move forward with intention.
• Is coaching confidential? Yes, absolutely. Confidentiality is a cornerstone of the coaching relationship and is something I take extremely seriously. Everything we discuss in our coaching sessions is held in the strictest confidence, creating a safe and trusting space for you to open up and explore what’s truly important to you.
