The
past is over, the future isn’t here yet, today
is a gift—that’s why it’s termed
the “present.”
What
are you putting up with—what is cluttering
your mind? Do you need to set boundaries and/or
raise your personal standards? Do you have trouble
saying “No?” Do
your co-workers and/or boss make you crazy? Is your
career stalling? Do you feel out of control, put yourself
down and complain about work-life balance issues or
your life in general? Do you go to bed every night
hoping tomorrow will be better?
If you answered “yes” to
one or more of the preceding questions, then you’ve
probably found these issues produce feelings of personal
stress, strained relationships, and diminished work
capacity. It doesn’t
have to be this way.
There is a solution. Coaching
clients of Smart WorkLife Solutions (SWS) learn how
to create the future they want. They say as a result
of working with me they were able to achieve their
goals faster, easier and with better results than they
would have accomplished on their own. And, most experienced
breakthroughs that helped transform their lives in
unexpected and positive ways.
Each Smart WorkLife Solutions
client defines success in a personal and purposeful
way. Their collective goals and achievements have included:
raising personal standards to improve job performance,
setting boundaries to protect themselves from toxic
people and situations, saying no to commitments they’ve
outgrown thus making more time for themselves, determining
the next professional move – so as to be aligned
with their passion(s), preparing resumes that capture
the attention of employers and get them interviews,
getting better-quality jobs with improved pay and benefits,
starting a new business with clients waiting to be
served, and learning management skills which translated
to improved productivity, results, and a happier workforce.

Have you worked with a coach
before? If not, here are some
of the things my clients have shared about their experience
. . .
Executive, AmerUs . . . "Working with Pam for just
three months I accomplished things I
had never done before. I achieved the
career goal that prompted me to call
her in the first place and benefited
in some surprising ways too.”
President, Financial Services
. . . “Pam was a tremendous resource guide for various
aspects of my business including staff development and in
helping to review my internal processes. Her coaching assisted
me in addressing a number of production issues I had, particularly
related to certain staff positions.”
Coach & Therapist . .
. “Working with Pam I learned more about myself
and took more steps forward in four months, toward my most
alive and creative self, than I had in years.”

Coaching – I
will ask you to set a specific goal and try coaching for
90 days. You are likely to have experienced success in meeting
your goal by that time or be well on your way. It is important
that you take your coaching sessions seriously - be
punctual, be prepared for our meetings, and tell me what
you really want.
Our coaching sessions will
typically be conducted via telephone, although there may be occasional
face to face meetings, proximity permitting. Coaching usually
consists of four, 60 minute sessions per month, with
occasional short e-mail and telephone exchanges in
between.
For coaching to be successful,
you must be ready for change and open to suggestions regarding
how to best achieve your goals. This means you will do more
than stick your toe in the water; you will submerge yourself
and trust the process. You must be honest with me, and you
may trust that your communications will be treated with
the utmost confidentiality. You will be asked to do homework
between our coaching sessions. These assignments may
include working on goals, plans or actions, reading
an article or book, and/or observing yourself and others.
The intention is for you make distinctions, form new
perspectives, and experiment with new approaches to
old behaviors.
