You’re still thinking about hiring me, or maybe you’re not, but you want to know more. I’d like to think the more you know about me the better able you’ll be to determine if I’m a good fit.
Can we work together?
I’m guessing we can. Are we going to be uncomfortable with the other person’s out look life? Are we philosphically at odds to each other? Let’s not even go down the road, is coaching/consulting going to be a wise investment of your time; let’s assume we agree that it is. You wouldn’t have read this far if it didn’t already ring a little bell that maybe just maybe this is for you.
What makes for my people?
They run a surprisingly large gambit. For the most part there’s already a basic understanding of self, why you tick the way you do. There’s a level of commitment to your life’s work, or there’s a seeking on how to mesh your daily work into your ideal life. You want something more or different than what’s going on in your life right now and you’re thinking that professional input to help you get there.
Me?
While I’m caring, I’m also pragmatic. There are coachy people out there who treat their clients incredibly gently. I will not cocoon you in a hand knitted blanket and make you chamomile tea.
On the other side, while I will push you and encourage your growth, I will not make you drop and give me twenty like a drill sargent. There’s a huge spectrum between the two and I modulate between them based on your needs. I am results oriented, goal driven and think accountability is the key to the whole coaching experience.
My personal philosophy which drives everything I do is making the connection that ultimately everything comes down to relationships; relationships with family, friends, co-workers, suppliers, customers and ourselves. It’s people working with people. The better we navigate them the more we meet our needs and the more our needs are met, the happier we become.
You and I may just meet once, or we may meet for a specific period of time. We could continue and work together in an ongoing fashion. There’s a great chance that we may never ever meet in real life but you’ll hang out here and we’ll connect through the comment section on the blog. I’d love that too. That is so being each other’s people too.
Regardless, please know that our relationship is something I value and I’ll pay you careful attention.
Contact me if you’re interested in talking more.



I want to be just like you in 2010. How did you loose the weight – what tricks? Help me please.
Candy
Candy,
Sorry to get back so late to you.
I lost the weight by deciding it was time and doing everything in my power to get it off. That meant surgery. I had lapband surgery and I followed the rule exactly. I exercised and continue to do so. I wrote down all I ate.
Change is hard-it takes commitment. You can do it though. Anyone can. Keep me posted on your progress.
