Maybe you’re stuck, feeling unfulfilled and unhappy, but not able to make changes
in your life to meet your goals. Maybe you’re vaguely dissatisfied and aren’t even sure why
and where to find happiness. Perhaps you stressed and overwhelmed with work or life in general.
Are you feeling physically, mentally and emotionally exhausted? Do you lack the energy to enjoy the things you love? Do you want to improve your health? Are you longing to have better personal or family relationship? You know you want to change but you can’t get started or don’t know where to begin.
Change can be difficult. It means taking risks. It requires commitment, courage and action. As an experienced coach, I understand the challenges of change. I support and guide my clients to successfully adapt and deal with change. The experience is empowering and life transforming!
Understanding Change
The very sound of the word can create anxiety, discomfort, and fear. We tend to focus our energy on avoiding change rather than accepting it as a normal part of life. Despite the fact we know change is a part of life and change can provide solutions to our challenges — we remain uncertain on ways to effectively manage change and thrive within it.
Latest Research on Change
New research about our brains now reveals exactly why change is so hard — and what we can do to harness it for insight, creativity, and performance, in the workplace and beyond. In September’s CIO Magazine cover story Results Coaching Systems’ founder David Rock and renowned research psychiatrist Jeffrey Schwartz discuss the basic neuroscience of change, and suggest strategies for making change easier on ourselves, and others. See references below.
As a student of David Rock and graduate of Results Coaching Systems, I use the principles of neuroscience in my coaching. The results are incredible! To learn more about “brain based” coaching and experience a free trial session contact me at carolgcoach@aol.com.
Coaching helps manage Change
As the prevalence of change has grown, so have tools to help manage it – including coaching. Coaching has emerged as one of many effective tools for supporting individual change. Coaching is now a booming industry.
A Coach is a personal trainer, mentor, and manager all in one! A coach is passionate about YOU-and is your biggest fan. Coaching allows you to explore your situation and evaluate your options with a fresh, new perspective. With a coach in your corner you work as a team to set inspiring goals, powerful strategies and meaningful actions to deal with change.
