Coaching requires your commitment as a participant and doing the steps agreed upon and being completely honest. The role of the coach can be: as a sounding board, a motivator, friend, mentor, teacher, taskmaster and more. The Practical Expert has trained and experienced life coaches. They understand and have stood in your shoes, often in shoes much worse and thus they listen, can be very effective and have a ‘get the job done’ attitude. Practicality is our standard.
Many customers express that coaching gave them a higher level of self-awareness and self-confidence, a more balanced life, better health, better relationships, project completion, smarter goal-setting, less stress in life, improved quality in life and enhanced communication skills.
What we do not do: We do not diagnose, prescribe, cure, provide therapy/treatment or spend time on past events/issues that are not productive to the here and now. We do not set goals for you, judge, or give advice (we may make suggestions though). The Practical Expert is results oriented.
We believe in giving you, our client, the very best that we can in quality of service. We live the premise that there are more options in daily life for every situation and will work to help you achieve the same for your challenges, not only now, but also for what may come along in your life.
Most sessions (consisting of 45 minutes) are done over the phone and either you can call the coach or we can call you – your choice at time of scheduling. Several different coaching packages are available, pick the one that best suits your needs.
You get to schedule right on our coach staff calendar(s) on this website, receive e-mail confirmation and it will keep track of your session time remaining. No more phone tag, not remembering when you scheduled and how much time you have left.
