I’m Certified in Goal Success! 😎
Hello Everyone!
We shared this with a few of you already; however, many of you may not know that Annette and I celebrated nine years of working together last month. It took us about two years of working together to actually become coaches and open our coaching practice - and through all these years, we have never stopped working hard together.
Nine years is a long time, especially considering that 70% of all new businesses fail within the first ten years. I told Annette when we first began that I wanted us to work together for at least 30 years. Even through the ups and downs (such as trying to meet our clients' needs during a pandemic!) – my goal and expectation to work with Annette for at least 30 years has never changed – and I don't think it ever will!
It's fun for me to go back and watch my mental movie of those early days working together. Annette knew she wanted to create a safe place for others to learn, grow, and experience a sense of connection. I really wanted to join her, but neither of us knew exactly what our coaching practice would look like. I now know how much I didn't know I didn't know!
Our growth over the last nine years hasn't been easy. There was so much to learn, and frankly, there is still so much to learn. More importantly, though, there is still so much we want to learn. Over the weekend, I heard a quote from BB King: "The beautiful thing about learning is that nobody can take it away from you." This is how I have approached everything we have done and continue to do. I love learning, and I always want to keep learning and growing.
To this end, I am excited to share with you that I just completed my coaching certification in Goal Success. I look forward to us implementing and integrating into our coaching practice everything I learned to earn this certification. Everyone who walks through our door has goals for their lives, and we want to help turn these goals into a reality. Now, we are even better equipped to do so.
Whether it's:
defining a realistic and achievable goal;
creating a step-by-step process and a daily or monthly action plan; or
cultivating the inner desire, self-motivation, and mindset to be successful;
we will continue to bring all our knowledge, training, and life experience to best serve you!
Throughout these last nine years, learning and growth have been the common threads for us: We have never stopped taking trainings, courses, and classes to improve ourselves, how we coach, and what we coach. Annette and I are certified life coaches and have extensive training in personal growth and development, communication, Nonviolent Communication, the Enneagram, boundaries, self-love, and addiction. In addition, I am a certified health coach, meditation instructor, and now I am certified in goal success. We are 100% committed to being the best coaches we can be - and personally, we always do what it takes to achieve every goal we set.
Thank you for the honor to walk alongside you and help you to learn and grow as well. I have loved every moment of these last nine years – and I am looking forward with excitement to the next 21 years! 😊
Let's work on our goals and achieve great things!
