Is This Holistic Health Coaching for You?

Last year, I was inspired to write the following post on my former holistic health consulting site, Après Sessions.

Do you deeply desire a shift in your life?

The people who deeply desire to make changes are always those most open to offerings from holistic health coaches. They clearly show commitment to moving past their stories. Most people, regardless of being tagged a “high-performer”, are usually still lacking in a few realms of life. I feel so fortunate to support these folks. It is truly a collaboration where we learn, gain and progress.

I have so much appreciation and respect for this commitment to oneself in order to authentically inspire and support others. Progression is potent on any level. But in a high-performer, progression equates to tenfold the ripple effect.

I love when I hear about a fellow holistic coach or consultant: “Man, she’s super strict.”

Good on her. Or him. They are being a coach. Would you expect anything less from a professional football coach? Looking back, "strict" may not be the best descriptor, but it gets the point across, yes? As a client, know that we must hold firm boundaries as our job includes holding you accountable.

The thing about this work is that we already have the understanding that no matter who we are, there is an area, maybe two, perhaps even three, where we are officially “over it”. We are fed up with our patterns. We are sick and tired of continual drama that, yep – we are in part responsible for – and ready to own.

We are ready to commit to due diligence and climb that hill. Deep dives are required. When we are ready, this is something to celebrate in and of itself. And hey, High Performers - this level of holistic work is about understanding that no matter how “successful” you are on the outside, the inside is where we are headed. Why? Because change is inevitable and constant. In order to be successful in all realms, no amount of Instagram followers is going to fulfill your soul. There are always areas, usually deep within, where each and every one of us, instead of avoiding, can not only tune in, but turn up the volume. 

Tune into THIS to learn whether this style of holistic coaching is for you…

This style of holistic coaching IS for you if you: 

            …are ready to hone in on every single realm of life and tweak this+that to move from where you are now to where you want to be

            …want to become more potent at what you do

            …are ready to step up not only for yourself, but as an example to those you touch each day

            …are killing it at life except one or two little areas in the back of your head that are driving you nuts

            ...personal and professional development is something you LOVE to geek out on

            …understand that there are no hacks. You just have to do the things. And there are always more things. They can never be avoided. And they change and ebb and flow with time.

            ….want to eloquently integrate your own personal development into all of your personal and professional relationships

            …want to collaborate toward a global consciousness of collective change

            ….want to locate a network of people to support you, guide you, teach you, coach you and your teams from where you are now to where you want to be

            …want to identify what is no longer serving you - today

            …are open-minded, open-hearted, know there is always more to learn, willing to look at yourself completely, with acceptance, and become more open to receive - even when sitting in the "hot seat"

            …want to find your very own unique version of true freedom that works for not only yourself, but all of your different partners in life 

This style of holistic coaching is NOT for you if you…

            …are looking for a quick fix - although sometimes small changes create massive transformations in very little time – awesome to witness

            …would rather just drop out and do what’s fast, fun and easy at the expense of yourself and/or another

            …think you already know everything there is to know about yourself, your loved ones, your business, your career, and it’s about changing someone else

            …are set on changing someone else

            …think you have tried everything

            …are not open to trying new things or even same/similar things you have tried in the past

            …prefer to stay stuck in your story

            …are “the boss” in some or all facets of life and unwilling to be coachable

            …do not want to challenge yourself

            …do not want to step out of your comfort zones or take risks

            …do not feel you could use a neutral eye on areas that are disturbing the peace

            …are not craving connection

            …are not interested in relationships based on truth, sometimes brutal honesty, vulnerability and transparency

            …are not interested in being part of a greater collective consciousness

            …do not want to BE the change in this world

            …have no desire to live a life that internally and externally defines freedom

Freedom is the name of the game. We must start where we are.
