How does Identity Coaching Work?
What is Identity Coaching?
Identity coaching helps you to navigate difficult times in your life. It provides you with support in a safe space that allows you to process the emotions you are feeling. At any stage in life something can happen that is totally unexpected and can pull the rug right out from underneath your feet. Just as you think things are sorted and safe along comes a curve ball. When you are experiencing periods of immense change; such as relationship breakdowns, career shifts, divorce, trauma, loss to name a few, life can become overwhelming with nowhere to turn. It can feel like there is no light at the end of the tunnel and you become stuck in a 'Groundhog Day' situation simply trying to get through each day.
Don't despair, I have been stuck in the transitional phase many times in my life, where I lost my identity. I wanted to reach out to someone who could help me. I wanted to be heard, seen and understood. All transitions are challenging, causing stress, overload and anxiety. With each structured session with me, I will guide you towards an understanding and a recovery enabling you to reflect on your current situation from all perspectives.
Identity Coaching isn't...
Identity coaching is not about telling you what to do. You hold the power to find your own answers. My role is to ask the right questions and listen with compassion. I don't give advice or interfere in your life, I am a transitional guide who will walk beside you during emotional and difficult times.
No two session are ever the same and there's no right or wrong way to move through this process. All you need is a willingness to trust the journey and be open to self-discovery, the rest will follow.
So, what actually happens?
As an Identity Coach, I offer hour long sessions in a way that suits you best. I work from home in a quiet, welcoming space that's free from every day distractions. We can meet in person or via a video call.
No two sessions are ever the same. I tailor each one to your individual journey. While I'll bring commitment and presence, I ask that you also show up ready to do the work. This is your journey and I'm here to walk beside you- guiding, supporting and keeping you gently accountable along the way
Complete confidentiality is assured in every aspect of my work.
A little taster
Take a moment to reflect on the questions below, not to find the right answers but to tune into how they make you feel. There are no wrong responses here. I'm not marking them and there's no answer sheet. The answers are already within you, you may just not have realised yet.
- What do you feel is missing in your life?
- What would make your life feel more rewarding and fulfilling?
- What do you sense is holding you back right now from creating that life?
- What would you most like to achieve by working with me as your coach?
- If you were 95 and looking back on your life, what would you want to say were your greatest accomplishments?
These are just a few gentle prompts to help you begin noticing the patterns, behaviours or beliefs shaping your life today. By taking time to reflect and answer, you're already honouring yourself and that's the first step in the right direction.
