I help my clients manage their energy to create optimally vibrant lives and share their gifts with the world.
Longevity is increasing. Life expectancies are going up, and with medical advances spreading around the world, they’re likely to go up a lot. That’s an interesting observation, made more interesting by the observation that centenarians are growing as a demographic group. Since 2000 they have increased by 44% and are expected to increase sixfold in the next 40 years. Those who are alive now can expect to live MUCH longer lives than our parents and grandparents.
If you’re like most people, you may be prepared for living into your 70s and 80s. You have your various retirement accounts, a community of friends and family, health insurance, and some hobbies. Are you prepared to live another five, ten, or twenty-five years beyond that? Will your money hold out? Do you have a community to rely on that long? Will your hobbies and pastimes be interesting and fulfilling for 20 or 30 years? Will you have a meaningful life after retirement?
We have transitions between adolescence and adulthood, and some transitions for retirement. But we need something to prepare us for those senior years, now being called elderhood. What will you do to give your life meaning? Are you taking care of yourself so your mind and body will work for you as an elder?
Longevity — in my definition that involves your lifespan and healthspan matching — has long been of interest to me. I compared my parents’ aging to others’ and was startled to see that they were doing great compared to most. They taught me a lot about aging gracefully, and both of them lived into their 90s. I’ve also been blessed to have mentors, formal and informal, teach me what it takes to create a vibrant, meaningful life. It’s my intention to live a long time because there are so many things to see and do, and I know I have so much to give the world.
Fine-Tuning Your Life
I don’t know your life, but I suspect you think it’s pretty good — but needs some fine-tuning. You’re doing everything you can to make it satisfying, joyful, rewarding, and successful. Of course, you have your ups and downs, your stops and goes, and speed bumps that sometimes trip you up. And somewhere, I suspect, you feel that life can be more and that you can have more and do more.
You are undoubtedly more likely now than ever to live into your late 90s or into your 100s. Are you ready for that? Do you have a plan? Most people don’t.
But, I have a solution for you.
I help my clients discover their WHY, the passion that gets them out of bed each morning. IIf you don’t have the energy to jump out of bed after a good night’s sleep, you may not be clear on your WHY! Or, you may not be living into your WHY. Your beliefs and values align when you know what moves you, and your WHY becomes your filter for all decisions you make.
Then, it’s time to create and follow your roadmap to your dream life.
When you feel stuck, you experience challenges and distractions, detracting from the quality of your life.
The biggest difference between my coaching program and any other I know about is that I’m offering a “buffet-style” or “university-style” program.
To help you select your path, I’ve created a “curriculum” that lets you choose what topics you want to cover in our coaching sessions. As with all universities, there are required sessions and electives. We start with a Strategy Session, which is a lot easier but deeper than an entrance exam.
Steps Along The Way
Start with filling out the L.I.F.E. Strategy Session Questionnaire, and we’ll schedule your Strategy Session — if you’re accepted. In that one-hour discussion, we explore your wants and needs, your pains and pleasures, and your hopes and fears, and the results of your responses in the Questionnaire.
Delve into the strengths and shortcomings of your present life plan. This session uncovers what you ultimately want to work on to transform your life so you can have the vibrancy and resources you’ll need to live with purpose.
Act now. The best part? There’s no charge for this first step. But act now to get onto my schedule!
After your Strategy Session, we’ll proceed to the custom-designed program we build together that helps you reach your goals during your coaching program. The kinds of topics you can choose from in your personalized program are discovering your Why and working with that in your life; energy and health management; attributes that make you who you are like adaptability and courage; habits, commitment, and self-responsibility; and exploring various emotions. Of the twelve sessions, five are required and seven are electives you choose.
Why Coaching?
Coaching is about transformation and growth.
Coaching is about creating a different future than what you’ve considered up to now.
Coaching is about challenging yourself and moving from where you are to the life you dream of, using the plan you create during your sessions.
A coach has the perspective you can’t have on yourself and on your life.
The more transformation you want, the more time you want to spend with me to develop new tools, gain perspective, and let go of impeding beliefs that make that transformation solid. The better the future you want for yourself, the more attention you can choose to spend on changing your life.
Doing The Deep Work is part of transforming your life and creating that future you want. What I bring to the table is to ask you the hard questions to encourage you to dig deeper. Life is to be vibrantly experienced, and that’s done by staying alert and open to the possibilities — and then pursuing them. Life is best experienced through action, and our sessions motivate you to engage in that adventure.
Coaching sessions are personalized to you. Your drive for change determines how much challenge you want to experience. The deeper and longer we work together, the more insights you gain into what’s holding you back — and how to spark the steps for driving forward into your dream life. Living a long life of purpose takes planning and action. You’ll develop the plan during our sessions and take action on them the day we start. It’s a life-long commitment, so start now.
If you continue doing what is easy, life will be hard.
If you start to do what is hard, life will be easy and joyful.
