Question 1

What is coaching?

Accepted Answer

Coaching is a supportive, forward-focused partnership that helps you grow into the person you want to become. It’s a space where you think more clearly, see new possibilities, and tap into strengths you may not have fully recognized.

Rather than giving you answers, coaching helps you uncover your own—so you can lead with greater confidence, clarity, and purpose. It’s about expanding awareness, strengthening decision-making, and taking intentional action aligned with what matters most to you.

Question 2

How is coaching different from other support services like mentoring, therapy, and consulting?

Accepted Answer

Coaching is powerful, but it’s not the same as other types of support. Understanding these differences helps you choose what you truly need. Many clients work with me as both a coach and consultant, but the approach in each role is distinct and intentional.

What It Offers:

Therapy

What It Offers:
 • Addresses issues of a psychological nature to promote healing and growth.

Consulting
Focus: Problem → Solution

* Coaching is the only one focused entirely on helping you find clarity, align with your values, and grow into the person you want to be.

Question 3

What can I expect in a coaching session?

Accepted Answer

A coaching session is a calm, focused space designed entirely for you — your growth, your goals, your leadership. You bring what’s on your mind or what you’re working toward, and we explore it together with honesty and curiosity. I listen not just for what you say, but how you say it — what feels clear, what feels stuck, and what’s beneath the surface. You have a designated time and space to slow down, gain clarity, and surface insights you may not have recognized on your own. We’ll identify tangible actions or shifts that you can explore or apply in your life and leadership right away. Most clients leave sessions feeling more grounded, self-aware, and confident in their next steps.

Every session is tailored to you — your pace, your goals, your style — so your growth feels authentic and sustainable.

Question 4

How can coaching help mission-driven leaders like me?

Accepted Answer

Mission-driven leaders carry a unique kind of weight: the responsibility to serve others, the pressure to do more with less, and the desire to lead with purpose while navigating constant change.

Coaching gives you the clarity, space, and support you rarely get in your day-to-day work. It helps you:
 • Reconnect with your purpose when the demands of leadership feel overwhelming
 • Strengthen your confidence, presence, and communication so you can lead with intention
 • Navigate transitions and complexity with more clarity and resilience
 • Make values-aligned decisions that move you and your mission forward
 • Build healthier team dynamics and stronger relationships
 • Lead from a grounded, authentic place rather than reactivity

Coaching isn’t about fixing you. It’s about uncovering the strengths, clarity, and capacity that are already inside you—so you can lead with more confidence and create the impact you’re here to make.

Question 5

Why work with an ICF-certified coach?

Accepted Answer

Hiring an ICF-certified coach (with an ACC, PCC, or MCC credential) means you’re choosing someone who has been rigorously trained, mentored, and evaluated against the highest standards in the coaching profession.

Here’s what that really means for you:

✔ A coach who has demonstrated proven mastery of core coaching competencies.
✔ A coach who has completed extensive training hours and direct mentorship from master coaches—ensuring a high level of quality and professionalism.
✔ A coach who puts your interests and wellbeing first. ICF coaches make a commitment to a strict Code of Ethics developed by the International Coaching Federation, including confidentiality, professionalism, and integrity. 
✔ A coach who is always learning and elevating their craft. ICF coaches must continually develop their skills through continuing education.

In short: ICF certification isn’t just a credential—it’s a promise that your coaching experience will be grounded in expertise, integrity, and genuine partnership.
