What is ShiftShape?
The shift is a letting go of an old perspective, thought, or feeling. The new way of being lies within you waiting to emerge. As the obstacle is removed, the shaping begins. You align yourself with a belief in yourself, and in possibility thinking. Once the shift is made, all actions flow out of the shift and you are able to shape an extraordinary future.

What is coaching?
Coaching is a co-creative relationship. We work together to keep you in alignment with your shift. Coaching is a support system that provides you with an accountability partner, new perspectives and an action plan. It differs from therapy since it is based on what you want to achieve in the present and the future instead of concentrating on the "why" of the past.

Who hires a coach?
Today, coaching is available to anyone who wants to create an extraordinary future. It is the fastest growing new profession today. Individuals who want to make a shift and work with a partner to gain new insights and keep focused on the goal, hire coaches. By working with a coach, not only do they shape extraordinary futures but the process of getting there is accelerated. Not everyone needs a coach, especially if you are lucky enough to have strong community support, a mentor or a family member who is completely objective or a team of investors behind you. Trained coaches fill this gap in modern society so that you too can achieve the kind of success you deserve.

How will our coaching sessions work?
Each of our coaching sessions focuses on you. You set the agenda based on what is most important to you at the time. Both of us bring all of our knowledge, resources, and intuitions to your agenda. I am here for you completely in our sessions. I will listen, reflect, ask questions and give perspectives and options. I will encourage you to identify what is working for you and what is not. Coaching sessions are conducted over the phone or face-to-face if possible and usually last for one hour. Generally, sessions occur weekly or bi-weekly at a prescheduled time. The minimum investment in coaching is four sessions.

In between sessions, you are free to contact me by phone or e-mail with any questions you have or support you need. I am committed to helping you make the shift to shape your future.

Who are my clients?
Mostly I work with designers, writers, entrepreneurs, and individuals in the publishing field. As my practice continues to grow I am providing services to a larger diverse population. My niche began in the field of design and publishing since this was the original community I knew well. However, I am able to work with anyone no matter their occupation, if we are a good fit.

Why do I coach?
I was my most difficult client where I needed to figure out how to combine my skills and interests in order to live the way I wanted to. I like to help others who want to create a better way of living because I find success in their success. My practice would not exist if my clients did not get what they want or something better. They say, "those who can't do, teach." I say, "I can do and teach." Keeping my practice to a limited amount of clients allows me to provide quality service as I participate in my other successful endeavors.
