Welcome to Arbutus Coaching
What do you plan to do with this one wild and precious life? I’ve put this quote by the poet Mary Oliver at the top of every page on my website because I believe it is such an important question. And one that we should all revisit throughout our one wild and precious life.
As a life and business coach and the owner of Arbutus Coaching, this question is central to my coaching relationships with people just like you. And one that begs others:
- What are your dreams? Are you still chasing them, or have you given up hope of ever achieving them?
- Are you happy with every aspect of your life, or is it time to strategize and turn plans into actions so you can move closer to living your most fulfilling life?
- Is there a voice inside you whispering, shouting or screaming that there has to be more in life but you don’t know how to get there?
If any of these questions resonate with you, then it’s time to investigate how you can benefit from coaching. Some of the more common reasons people hire coaches are to:
- Increase self-awareness and discover how their limiting beliefs are short changing themselves and others
- Work through a transition
- Be held accountable for the promises they make to themselves and others
- Increase their incomes
- Have a sounding board on work or personal issues and
- Create more balance in their life
Wondering if coaching would benefit you at this point in your life? To find out, ask yourself the following questions:
- Do I value collaborating with another, and working as partners?
- Am I interested in having another viewpoint?
- Am I open to considering new perspectives?
- Am I ready to devote the time and energy required to create lasting change in my work or personal life?
If you answered yes to most of these questions, then coaching could be just the ticket to help you grow, develop and change. Through the miracle of coaching – and I don’t use that word lightly - you will consciously create a powerful, successful and abundant life that is in keeping with your values and your priorities. Top echelon athletes and executives have long known how effective coaches are in bringing out their best in a variety of conditions and situations. I’m guessing you’re visiting this website because you’ve heard that coaching has gone mainstream; that it's no longer limited to these two groups and you’re wondering if it could benefit you.
What I can promise you is this: with dedication and effort on your part and with me at your side, it won’t be long before you’re chasing your dreams and find yourself living a more fulfilling life. How can I be so sure, you ask? Because as my tagline says, I’m in the business of growing people and possibilities. I’ve seen it happen again and again. As your coach, I will:
- Create a safe space for you to take your learning about yourself to a deeper level
- Provide objective observations that increase your self awareness and your awareness of others
- Be your sounding board so that you can grow your possibilities and make wise and thoughtful decisions and plans
- Help you experience fresh perspectives on personal challenges and opportunities
- Ensure that you see what’s working, what’s needed and how to get there
- Champion your opportunities and potential, even when you can’t
- Challenge you to stretch and grow in service of your goals
- Point out your blind spots and self-limiting behaviours
- Motivate you to stay focussed and not get side tracked by life’s many detours and
- Hold you to your commitments, in service of your goals and a more fulfilling life
