Executive and Life Coaching

It all starts with a compelling question …

who am I? what do I do now? what do I want as my “new normal”? is there more? am I all that I can be? what is happiness anyway? can I be the author of what it means to live my “best life”?

I consider it a great honour to accompany you on this creative journey into your potential where the life you lead is a celebration of who you are and the gifts you have to offer.

  • Coaching is a partnership between you and me in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires you to maximize your personal and professional potential. As your coach, I honour you as the expert in your life and believe every client to be creative, resourceful and whole.

    Standing on this foundation, my responsibility as a coach is to:

    * Discover, clarify, and align with what you want to achieve

    * Encourage your self-reflection, awareness and emotional resonance

    * Elicit and encourage self-generated solutions and strategies

    * Hold you responsible and accountable for the changes that you wish to make

    * Celebrate your discoveries, choices and changes

  • I have worked as a coach and consultant in the areas of leadership development, change management, and employee engagement since the mid-’90s. I specialize in the design and facilitation of transformative learning strategies and retreats. I work equally at all levels at the organization, as the ability to lead and inspire resides in all of us.

    Corporate Clients seek my support when they are looking for:

    Custom designed leadership development programs for all levels of the organization

    Executive coaching for high potential individuals or teams

    Custom team retreats focused on communication, team engagement, relationship intelligence, trust

    Annual team meetings, conferences, or large group change initiatives

  • It all starts with a phone call to see if there is a “fit” - a desire to enter into this growing relationship together. You have to feel that I “get” you and that you want to spend time in exploration with me. My creative process and Jedi knight focus on authenticity have to feel right for you.

    You will then complete an intake form to reflect on the goals you wish to accomplish(or help articulate the questions you are trying to answer)and commit to a desire to see a shift in your expansiveness and potential

    We’ll then start on our coaching journey of 3 months. This includes 6 sessions of 1-1.5 hours each. In general, I recommend that they occur once every two weeks. (You may at the conclusion of this initial period add as many individual sessions as you wish). Why a minimum of 3 months? You are seeking a life pivot, transformation, nothing short of magic. A shift in aspirations, beliefs, behaviours takes time.

    I will curate readings, and exercises for your reflection and implementation homework between our sessions in order to ground your learnings.

    We will use a video messaging app that will allow you to video chat with me and record thoughts, reactions and experiences “real-time” as they are occurring. It makes grabbing onto your ah-has and our work easier, as we can refer back to these roadblocks or success “moments” in our sessions.

    Our sessions will conclude with a deep reflection exercise in order to capture your learnings and to assist you in creating a different awareness of your new strengths amongst those around you.

  • The answer to life’s biggest questions

    Connection with their authentic self

    Clarity around their purpose, vision and fulfillment

    Revisioning the next step or the new normal

    Presence – the Practice of Being rather than Doing

    A more creative, heartfelt expression of self

    Purging of limiting beliefs and old narratives

    Trusting insights, inspirations and strong conviction

    Clarity of wisdom, the truths that you guide your life b

  • The best way to know if a retreat or coaching is right for you is for us to have a conversation and mull over the possibilities. I’m looking forward to hearing from you! Tania@advivum.ca
