Paisley Life Design

Private Coaching is based on a close, confidential, partnership - a safe and open space where you will tap into your own vast experience, talents, skills and resources. I promise honesty, integrity, confidentiality, and passion and expect the same level of commitment from you.

During our discussions, I ask powerful questions, listen, reflect, challenge, and support, leading you to discover the answers I know already reside inside of you. We will work on tools you can use for the rest of your life to coach yourself through difficult circumstances. I will often ask you to stretch yourself beyond your comfort zone, doing mind exercises and "homework" especially suited to your unique situation. This process can occur in-person, via email, or over the phone. I offer a complimentary, 30-minute session to discuss your goals and determine if we are a good fit. Email me for more information!

I want to stick to my exercise plan. I wish exercise was more exciting to me. I'd like to improve my diet. I'd like to learn about wellness as a whole. I'm suffering from stress and being overloaded.

Stress Management top		I want to reduce stress in my life. I feel stressed out almost constantly. Stress is starting to take a physical toll on my life. Stress is affecting my relationships.

Work/Life Balance top		I want to live a more balanced life. I spend way too much time at work. I can't leave my work behind at the office. When I get home from work, I have nothing left for my family, let alone myself.

Relationships top		I want to feel closer to the people in my life. I'd like to communicate better. I'd like to have more friends. I'd like to develop closer relationships. I'd like to contribute more to my relationships. I'd like to get more out of my relationships.

Fulfillment/Inner Peace top		I feel there is something missing in my life. I know there is something more for me, I just don't know what it is. I am restless with my life. I need something new. I feel unhappy and dissatisfied with my life. I'm lost. I need to figure out who I really am. I am so dedicated to my children that sometimes I think I am losing my sense of self. I often feel at conflict with myself. My thoughts are distracting. I cannot concentrate or focus. I often feel angry and irritable. I want to exercise my creativity.

Life Transitions top		I am … headed (back?) to college. buying a home. selling a home. quitting my job. about to graduate. about to get married. about to have children. thinking about (re)entering the workforce after staying at home with my children. leaving work to stay home with my children. buying my first home. How do I know I'm getting what I really want? moving to a new city. How do I decide on a home after seeing over 25 homes in 1 short visit?!

Dealing with Difficult Economic Times top		This economy is making me petrified. I cannot stop worrying about money. Stress over money is ruining my life.

Decision Making top		I have a critical decision to make and I don't even know where to begin. I have trouble making decisions in general. Should I or shouldn't I? Should I do A or B or C or … ?

Career Exploration top		I'd like more fulfillment from my job. I know there is something different for me, I just don't know what it is. I'm not happy in my job. I can't change jobs – how do I improve my situation in my current job? I think I might be good at this, but how do I know for sure?


Clarifying/Achieving your Goals top		This is what I want - how do I get it done? I want to live my life to its fullest. I want to feel accomplished. I want to set goals for myself. I have a single large goal, but it is overwhelming. I need a plan to achieve my goals.


Simplification top		I want to live more simply in all aspects of my life. I feel consumed by clutter. I am overwhelmed by my busy schedule.

Time Management & Prioritization top		Getting the kids out the door in the morning is exhausting. My evening routine is exhausting. I am always late. I'm always feeling behind at work. I am constantly exhausted trying to get everything done. I never have any time to myself. I am constantly almost dropping the ball. I don't have enough time to: Work out Do things with my children Plan a vacation let alone go on one Sleep Think I have so much to do, I don't know what to do first. I need to prioritize my responsibilities.
