Transform and Fly!

When people ask me what I do for work, and I respond that I’m a certified life coach, that usually isn’t enough for them.  They want to hear specifics – who I work with, what I specialize in, etc.  I share that I support my clients to transform some area of their life.  I realize the word “transform” has become trendy over the last several years, and perhaps some people cringe as they conjure up images of a “new age” gathering.  If there were a better word to use I would, but transformation is really what I’m up to!

 

Merriam-Webster defines transformation as “a complete or major change in someone’s or something’s appearance, form, etc.” I love the metaphor of the caterpillar changing forms into the chrysalis and then the butterfly. That is true transformation! I especially enjoy the fact that the butterfly has wings in the end…it has true freedom. The same is true for my coaching clients.  They choose any area of their life – career, health, relationship, whatever! – and they have a strong desire to reach their full potential in that area! I don’t tend to work with folks who just want to tweak something here or there; they can likely get what they want from a book if that is the case. My clients are working toward the type of freedom in their life where the sky really is the limit!

My clients who transform their life achieve amazing goals they once believed were out of reach. They complete a life project they had previously been blocked from doing for years. They start their first business. They double their income from the prior year. They find joy when they were once labeled depressed. They run their first race. These are examples of true transformation! Taking their lives to a whole new level.

So, what does it take to transform your life? It takes serious commitment to your life, and that means being in action! I task my clients each session with a challenge that will push them out of their comfort zones and continue to move their lives forward. The real work for my clients happens between our coaching calls. And eventually the magic happens….RESULTS! 

Consider if you want to make a minor tweak in your game or if you are ready to do the extraordinary and transform your life!
