What is coaching?

Coaching can be a life changing experience. It is a conversational art form that helps clients close the gap between where they are and where they want to be.

 

The gap represents a clients potential to grow and can relate to any aspect of life; personal and professional development, wellbeing, or performance.

​

Your coach is specially trained to ask you questions that encourage self-discovery, help you to think more deeply about your issues, challenge your perceptions and self-limiting beliefs.

​

The aim of coaching is to help clients to become more aware and self-reliant by developing new skills, finding new solutions or changing their attitudes or behaviours. 

​

Coaching can help individuals reach their peak performance by working with them to access marginal gains.

​

All coaching conversations are 100% confidential, they may vary in length and frequency depending on the client needs, but all sessions will require a commitment to change and willingness to be open and present. 

​

Coaching is NOT therapy or counselling.

 

When coaching we assume our clients are unique and resourceful. We ask clients to set the agenda, ask for what they need, bring about the change they seek and provide feedback.

How we work

Our aim is to engage in transformational conversations with our clients in order that the work we do together is long lasting.

​

We use our experience to judge how best to support each client and we always work with respect, empathy and genuineness.

​

In order to achieve positive results in our lives or BEAR FRUIT.

​

We believe that we need to know ourselves, understand what matters to us and ensure that we do what we need to maintain our physical and mental wellbeing.

​

We also believe that we need an understanding of how our minds work; the impact of our moods, feelings and emotions on our state of mind because our state of mind and our beliefs about life influence how we think. We use these beliefs in our work to support clients to change their minds, behaviours and outcomes in line with their goals.
