BUSINESS COACHING IS ABOUT HELPING YOU TO:
- Identify marketable passions, talents and skills and package those into a product or service attractive to prospects
- Develop a vision for your future as an entrepreneur
- Establish a business name, logo, and tagline to build your branding
- Create successful marketing strategies and marketing statements
- Make business decisions with the help of mentoring and guidance
- Become organized and fluent in administrative system development
- Establish boundaries to ensure that your business doesn’t drain you
- Understand the basics of webpage creation/design, copy writing, editing and search engine optimization (SEO)
- Work through emotional, physical and mental blockages and effectively neutralize them
- Build your business to honour and accommodate your health
- Create a comfortable office environment that is conducive to your personal/professional/health-related needs
- Establish a consistent follow-up system and guide you in building relationships with your prospects in order to turn them into customers
- Get serious about self-care and the importance of balancing work and rest
- Become a better communicator, learn to accept personal and professional successes and focus on a new healthy personal/professional successful lifestyle
A shift in your perspective and acknowledgment and incorporation of your fundamental values is vital to your personal and professional success.
I work with business owners and entrepreneurs with chronic illness or disability who are either just starting a business or are experiencing challenges within their work. My role includes holding them accountable to taking the actions necessary to move their business to the next level of success while honouring and accommodating their health.
COACHING VS COUNSELING
Coaching and counseling are similar in that they both require a regularly scheduled investment of time and energy; but that’s where the similarity ends. Counseling (or therapy) generally focuses on the past and healing; whereas coaching focuses on the present, the future and your personal growth.
Oh, and one more thing… Counseling generally happens face-to-face, in person whereas coaching happens on the phone! – This saves energy, time and money in travel and scheduling. You’ll find that, as others do, face-to-face interaction isn’t necessary for a positive coaching experience. That being said, we can do face-to-face if you have a webcam.
Coaching is about empowerment, guidance, support, and encouragement; like a mentor and protégé relationship. Mentors want to see their protégés succeed and grow and become the most successful person possible. Coaches want the same for their clients.
Business coaching has become a necessity not a luxury in today’s markets and is a professional step in the right direction to maintaining and achieving optimal business success.
Business coaching will guide you through the different stages of your business development and shed light for you in the darker places, optimizing your business functions and operations.

GETTING STARTED
You start by setting up a complimentary consultation with me. Once we’ve connected, I’ll email you to negotiate a possible day and time for our no obligation initial session. When you’ve confirmed a day and time, I’ll send you my “Get Acquainted” exercise to complete and return to me prior to our session. Your responses to this exercise will give me a snapshot of which areas in your life you’re interested in working on. At that point I’ll also send you my “Programs and Fees” document.
Then on our pre-determined day and time you’ll give me a call to connect for your consultation; your free sample coaching session. During that call we’ll get to know each other a little while we review your exercise results. Our objective will be to come up with some “next steps” for you to think about to move forward from that point. After that first session you’ll have a better idea of whether I’m the “right” coach for you. By that time you’ll also have had a chance to review my various coaching programs and fee scale so you’ll know which options will best fit your lifestyle and budget.
