You seek lasting, positive changes
You aim to shed old beliefs
You welcome honest self-reflection

Case Study One
This person’s, "Anne's", boss was under incredible pressure, which she did not handle well, she took it out on her team naming and shaming them in meetings, often what she was saying was not true as she had not read the update emails sent. Anne started to have panic attacks when she arrived at work. She got tongue tied in meetings with her boss unable to stand up for herself. She needed to get updates from consultants which were always sent in late, she did not know how to change this and this resulted in more humiliation in meetings. After six conversations she had communicated the consequences to consultants and got back all the updates before the closing date. She was able to challenge her boss in meetings, and her panic attacks went away.

Case Study Two
Georgie was sexually, physically and mentally abused from the age of five (ish) until she was nearly 14 years old. When she was 24 she was promoted to be an executive in a tech company. She didn’t make small talk with the administrators and contact centre, she was all business talk; she was horrified when she found out her nickname was ‘the ice queen’ with people believing she saw them as beneath her. The truth is she saw herself as beneath them, she didn't know how to make small talk and she never realised how much pain she was causing. She suffered with acute imposter syndrome, not surprising when she felt this way for a huge chunk of her childhood. She suffered with difficulties communicating with family and friends, never sharing what had happened to her, from shame. I could go on. Why? Because this was me. I went on a long journey to get to where I am today.

Thankfully with Integral Developmental Coaching sustainable, embodied change can happen in months, not years. I know this to be true because of the people who have been my clients.

Overview of a Coaching Journey

Your coaching journey begins with an 'Intake Conversation', where together we will capture the essence of your Coaching Topic. We will explore what matters to you most, the changes you deeply desire to embody, and your why. Explore what you currently do, and how you envision yourself in the future.

When we next meet, I will offer you a bespoke Coaching Program, focused on developing two things, awareness and capabilities. This is an 'Offer Conversation', meaning together we will collaborate, in a co-creative dance, to refine and make changes to your program, which includes objectives and first practices.

You will be required to take action in the form of practices, small moves, that build the capacities, the new or enhanced skills and qualities of the new way you desire. Action in the form of paying attention whilst doing something new, to catch your new and current way in the moment.

Journaling will also be one of your regular actions, to explore and create more spaciousness around your current way, so you shift from being it, to seeing it, an object of your curiosity and compassion. You will also go deeper into your new way, to bring the inside out, anchor what you are experiencing, noticing and learning.

There will be a sequence of 'Development Conversations'. Depending on your Topic this will be around 5-7 conversations, which of course we can adjust depending on your engagement and progress.

In your development conversations will we explore the good, the bad, the exciting, and sometimes the scary. We will explore any resistance or immunity to change you are experiencing, which we can all experience when working towards change. We will also anchor your insights, learnings and new ways, and always dance together to co-create your next practice.

When it is time, we will have a 'Completion Conversation', to anchor all you have accomplished. We will also take a look ahead at the possibilities and challenges you may face, and explore what practices will support you moving forward, so that your new way continues to be strengthened.

“It takes more than awareness, vision and imagination to bring about sustainable, embodied change. You must take action, actions that challenge and empower you."
