From Comfort to Possibility – in your Career and Life

An intensive, interactive, experiential group coaching program where, through a series of exercises and discussion, participants will learn how to shift from an energy draining to an energy generating lifestyle.; begin to shape their own vision of what they want for their future; discover what new possibilities they would like to explore (and how to explore them); learn what propels them forward toward possibility, and what keeps them stuck in comfort and strategize a plan of action to take their life in a new direction. The half-day program includes four hours of group coaching and discussion. The full-day program includes 8 hours of in-class exercices, group coaching and discussion.

How to Live Your Best Life: Tips on Succeeding in your Personal and Professional life - New!
We all want to live our lives to the fullest - to enjoy every moment, experience all that life has to offer and accomplish many things. I believe that we all can live our best lives, NOW. Not “someday” or after we have completed “x”, or when we have “enough money”. These excuses, and many others, keep us away from our best lives. I believe that we all have the capacity for greater fulfillment, joy and amazing experiences right now – all we have to do is shift our perspective, thoughts and some behaviors (habits) and we’ll be surprised at what we find.
This seminar presents tips to help you do just that!
Career and Life Balance: Myth or Reality? - New!
There is no one definition for career and life balance. It is as unique as you are, taking into account your own needs and values, goals and dreams. Because of this uniqueness, it is important that you take some time to discover your own definition before you embark on the next phase of your career and life. It will also be something that you will want to revisit and refine each year as you grow personally and professionally for as you change, so will your ideas and needs of balance.
Professional Focus
Change: Why is it so challenging?
What is Change? Several dictionary definitions are: to undergo transformation or transition, move from one phase to another, alter one’s approach or attitude, shift from one to another, or to become different. When you hear those definitions, what thoughts, questions or concerns does that bring up for you? For many of us, change is often seen as something we want but are somewhat afraid of. Why is this? Why does Change bring up so many conflicting emotions? Join us for this interactive discussion to learn about the essence of change and how you can embrace it.
Goal Setting & Strategies for Taking Action
Many of us simply live our lives by “chance” – waiting for things to happen to us, then moving on from that place. Instead of leaving our lives up to chance, specific goals and plans give us greater control, can help us become more efficient and give us a feeling of confidence. Goals can motivate us to move forward and show us where forward is. Waiting for things to happen to you does not bring fulfillment in your life – making things happen for yourself does!
Steps for Getting Noticed, Known and Connected in Your Career
Are you often uncomfortable in situations when you must interact with people you don’t know? Are you longing to cultivate new relationships in your professional life? Is being connected to people important to you, but you just are not sure how to do it? Whether you are embarking on a career transition, are self-employed and need to market your services, or just want to cultivate relationships with colleagues, you will have to reach out to people. Relationships, whether personal or professional, develop over time and are based on trust. First impressions are also critical, as they determine whether you will have the opportunity to develop a stronger relationship. So how do you do it? This seminar will give you the steps.
Taking Ownership of Your Career
Are you satisfied with how you are progressing in your current job? Do you wake up every morning eager to start your day, excited about new possibilities waiting to be explored? If you cannot answer a resounding YES to the above questions, I invite you to discover how taking ownership of you own career will bring you greater satisfaction that you thought possible. Waiting for things to happen to you does not bring fulfillment in your career – making things happen for yourself does!
Creating Your “Life/Career Map”
Your LIFE/CAREER MAP is a visual picture of your life purpose, needs, values, interests, gifts, qualities, and challenges. Your Map can serve as the barometer, baseline or compass that will keep you focused as you exploring your possibilities and moving forward in your career. With so many options available, you will want to know specifically what you are searching for – as this will help you know when to say no, maybe and absolutely YES!
Expanding Your Business
Are you running your business from a place of familiarity…delivering the same service (s), the same way to the same people? Though your services may be exceptional, your methods proven and your clients loyal, are you fulfilled? Do you often hear yourself saying “someday I will… provide new services, try new methods, attract new customers”? Are you secretly (or not so secretly) hoping for more excitement and energy in your business, and your life?
Personal Focus
Finding Your Confidence: Discover your inner stength - New!
When surveying my readership and workshop attendees on what they most want in their lives, an overwhelming number talked about greater confidence. That lead me to thinking about the role confidence plays in our quest for a better life and the way we can all enhance ours. I believe we all have it within us to be incredibly confident. It is right there, sometimes just under the surface, sometimes deeper below – waiting to show itself to the world. This seminar will take participants through the steps we can all take to begin to discover and strengthen ours.
Strategies for Stepping Outside and Experiencing Life
Many people lead their lives from a safe, familiar, comfortable place. Their lives are good, but they are secretly wishing they could be more, do more, and experience more. They are eager to step over the threshold of comfort and out the door, yet not quite sure how to do it, or where to go once they are “out there”. Does this sound familiar?
Just Do It: Life is Too Short to Let Fear Stop You
Have you found yourself wanting more in life, but fear is holding you back? Change, and stretching out of your comfort zone, is scary. Why? Because it means stepping away from the familiarly and safety of what is known. We know fear us lurking when we hear ourselves say “I could do x, but what if…” or in response to a suggestion from another we say “Yes, I could …. but…” The challenge is to have the courage to move forward, through the fear, to grow. Join us during this presentation where, through interactive discussion, participants will begin to discover how to move past their fear and experience more of life!
Time to Focus on You!
Do we truly know what it means, what it feel like and looks like to spend time on ourselves? Do we remember what fun, pleasure and relaxation feel like? Are we running around so much that we miss what is right in front of us? If this sounds like you, join us for this interactive program on the importance of creating time for yourself and strategies to do it!
How to Get Noticed, Known and Connected…Even if You are Shy
As people move to a new area, transition their career, or seek greater involvement in their communities, they are often focused on developing new and better relationships. Yet many are either unsure of, or uncomfortable with not only developing these relationships, but even meeting people in the first place! Participants will begin to brainstorm a variety of methods to get noticed, known and connected, identify the beliefs and habits that are holding them back from reaching out to people and create strategies to overcome them.
Living a Passionate Life
Are you wondering what you are meant to do in your life and work? Many of us go about our days living our lives, until one day, we stop and begin to think – is this all there is? Is this what I am supposed to be doing with my life? What happened to the passion? Where is my zest for life? That is what this presentation will help you discover…
The “Laws of Attraction” – how to attract more of what you want in life
The Universal Law of Attraction states that we attract whatever we choose to give our attention to--whether wanted or unwanted. Wouldn’t you rather choose, then to focus on what you want, rather than what you don’t? Sounds pretty easy, yet most of us don’t realize that we could be focusing our attention much more deliberately than we are. This presentation will introduce this amazing idea of attraction, help participants begin to realize where their attention is focused & learn strategies to help them shift that focus.
Five Steps to a More Purposeful Life: Personally, Professionally & Financially
Join us in this interactive discussion about life purpose, creating your vision and making smart financial choices to celebrate your best life. Living a purposeful life helps us move with the flow of who we are, reduces the overwhelm of choices we face daily and makes life richer and more balanced. In this interactive discussion, you will begin to: discover what your life purpose might be, visualize how you could be living according to that purpose, think about what changes you would like to make in your life, learn what financial commitments and strategies will support you and how to celebrate your accomplishments. This workshop is delivered jointly with Lori Williams, a Financial Consultant with Wachovia Securities..
