What is Coaching?
Helping you do what you need to do, to be who you want to be
and/or
Helping you be who you want to be so you can do what you want to do
As coaches, we believe you have the answers and through a thoughtful, attentive listening and conversational process, we help tease out from you the insight that lies within you to create your desired outcome.
Coaching is a profession bound by training, confidentiality, equality, respect and a Code of Ethics.

Examples,
- Something you have but do not want
I am a big procrastinator in most things with a deadline
- A need for a problem to go away
I want to stop experiencing conflict with my colleague
- The result of achieving a developmental goal
I want to feel more stress-free and energetic in life
- Something you want but do not have
I want to have relevant work experience before I graduate so I am confident about getting a job when I finish University
The Process
Through a series of collaborative, relational and conversational sessions we will identify and discuss topics, desired goals, and potential or problem areas you wish to focus on. We will prioritize the most important through tools, and a series of questions. We will explore different realistic options and goals and together develop and agree to actions to help you activate your journey to your desired outcome.

“As women, and particularly as South Asian women, we go through a different set of external and internal expectations and pressures in life and work. I, too, have been on a journey navigating cultures, identities, professions, and myself. I could not have done this alone and I am grateful for the many people, resources and tools that have guided, coached and mentored me along the way. They have saved me from losing myself, and helped me focus on a successful career path, fulfil my financial, family and cultural responsibilities, remain emotionally and physically robust, and honour my personal aspirations, interests and goals. My desire and intention are to pay this forward to empower you to be your best self and to do your best work.”
