Working with me

get out your bucket list and let's speed things up a bit!
My various Classes, Groups, Advanced Coach Trainings, and One on One Coaching explained

Write me.  I'll call you.  We'll talk.   It helps.

Classes, Group and Lectures

I hold groups and classes, including Happiness Coaching and What One Person Can Do, both 12-week foundation courses that transform 'impossible' personal relationships and teach you to how to be happy no matter what is going on and no matter what anyone else is doing.   These shorter courses are a great way to work with me and a  foundation from which to move into personal coaching. 
(Project Dream and Coach MasterMind Groups are full - but there are regularly new groups beginning - info below)

Advanced Coach Training

I do very specialized individual and advanced work with coaches.   As a Master Transformative Coach, and part of the Supercoach Faculty, I teach advanced coaching techniques and transformative coaching fundamentals and practices.  If you are familiar with Michael Neill's Supercoach Academy you'll understand the principles I'm talking about.  If you are not, feel free to give me a call and I'll answer your questions.

Coaches, I encourage you to check out the Academy - which I believe is the best coaching training on the planet today, taught by the world's finest coaches. The next Supercoach Academy is in Los Angeles, Jan-June 2011

Individual, One-On-One Work

I work with all kinds of people of all ages, but mainly with people whose lives are more 'busy' than 'satisfying.'  If this is you, then things are not necessarily falling apart around your ears, but there are some nagging things that just aren't quite handled and ... well, this feeling that the busy-ness should count for something. It should be easier to want to get up.  There's got to be more than just 'the grind.'

I mean, surely you should be able to look forward to more enjoyment than just from Friday to Sunday, or on vacation or with a good night out,  a spa break, or a new handbag.  When did 'busy' replace feeling happy and alive?

Dan Pink says in his latest book 'Drive' that we are not motivated ultimately by money and 'stuff' (including bonuses) but rather by our desire to realize our full potential.  I think, no matter how materially successful, we all want
  • to feel good
  • to feel free to do what's best for us
  • to have direction (but not necessarily a straightjacket)
  • to know our own truth (not someone else's)
  • to cruise on hands-free more of the time
  • to wake up with a bright feeling about the day
  • to like what we see in the mirror, even if it's not perfect
Here is what I do when we work together on an individual basis:

Through our weekly connecting call, you'll find you start to worry less, life gets more fun, people who drove you crazy stop being such a big deal, and you master feeling happier, brighter and more available to really, really good ideas.   Feeling more loving  is a happy side effect I've noticed.  And from here, most people find that setting off in the right direction and even making tough decisions - aren't that hard to do anymore.

When you are happy, feeling good, and have clarity of mind, you know exactly what to do next. 

Now, that' s my experience.  I have noticed that most people start coaching with a specific goal or a life vision in mind, such as becoming more successful, starting a new business or dealing with a stressful illness or loss.  That's cool.  I mean, very few people put "be happy all the time no matter what" on the bucket list.  (But I highly recommend it).

There are really three things I know: 

     One: It's far easier to feel good than you imagine - and you don't need to believe in this, because you'll practice it and come to know it for yourself
     Two: I deeply care that you discover, know and become happier and generally feel better than you now think possible for yourself (astronomically so)
     Three: This is important. For You. And for the world.

I can't think of anything more important. Because when you don't have this kind of good feeling in your life, nothing else is ever going to be enough anyway.

But you already know that.

If you want to talk about this, or whatever is on your mind, call me:  USA +1 858 866 8049.

ProjectDream Team  - a little less talk and a little more action

Picture
Project Dream is now full.  If you are interested in the next one, give me a shout.
  • 6 people in a group.  
  • One year in action creating what you want, having help, enjoying getting it - then celebrating:
  • Your business launch, that book you are writing, opening that guest house, creating that exhibition - whatever it is you say you really, really want.

And if you prefer to keep daydreaming, wishing and hoping, this is not the group for you. 

it's OK if you can't yet see the business plan. It's alright if everyone has told you to forget it.  You don't need belief, or positivity or anything like that.  You don't even have to feel great all the time about it. But you need something that you want badly enough, to want to show up for it and for yourself. You'll need a dose of being willing to walk, trip, get up again, fly and then get what you came for.  You are gonna learn. And you are gonna love the whole darn process like nothing you've done before.  Because you will be in good hands and in good company.

And I'm dead serious about you getting what you want.

Not only will you have my coaching support 1000%, but all my corporate project management and strategy skills, plus some guest expert marketers and planners as we will move mountains w/ action days, fun, support, master camaraderie. We'll use our 'how tos' and our 'why nots?' and we'll lose our 'yeahbuts' and our 'howzits' (howzit gonna happen?)  It doesn't matter what your project: book, business, your first exhibit, create a charity or a great relationship - but you must have a specific dream project and be committed to go from pipe dream to real thing. Don't be surprised if I ask you to bequeath ALL your excuses to the dustbin.

We start as soon the group is full and I have six motivated and committed former-daydreamers.  We'll work together for one year (once we've had an initial chat to make sure you and the group are a good fit).  If you are not, I won't let you waste your money. If you are in, and you commit, you'll have your dream. 

Lots of dreams are about to explode into this world.  One of yours, I hope.  Write me now at  elese.coit@earthlink.net or fill in the form below and tell me about your dream. 

Master Mind Groups

Picture
I have one Coaching Mastery Master Mind Group specifically for coaches and health practitioners  
(currently I have a waiting list, please contact me)
elese.coit@earthlink.net or use the form above

This is a private mastermind group.  A small, motivated, and powerful cross-section of coaches and practitioners meet every month to continue advancing in their practices and to hold one another accountable for creating extraordinary levels of wellbeing in their own lives as well as making a difference in the lives of others. I organize guest speakers on topics relevant to the group, from practice building to new coaching modalities.  Members of past groups have written books, refocused their businesses, streamlined their practices and rekindled their enthusiasm for what they do. 

Admission is by interview.  Not to intimidate, folks, but to ensure there is a great group dynamic.
