Two Areas My Coaching Can Help You Thrive in the Adoption Arena

I am a unique kind of Life Coach. My approach is different than what you may understand about Life Coaching.

Life Coaching is planning forward for the future.

I help my clients think forward, plan forward and build forward. There is really nothing in the past you need. The past is what brought you to this point: needing guidance. So, let me help you grow into something different than your past.

No one stood at a river wondering how they would cross and plan to built a bridge backwards in the opposite direction. No one, on their 10th anniversary, started planning their wedding.

No one builds a bridge backwards

#1 Relationships

Many adoptees want to build relationships using a backwards model of reclaiming or experiencing everything they have lost in the past.

I am here to help you move forward in relationships where you had to jump right in the middle of with no prior history. I don’t help you look back. I help you build a bridge forward, planning forward and thinking forward. I guide you to other paths when a bridge is not possible. That is hope even amid the scars.

There is HOPE even amid scars

#2 Behaviors

Many adoptees have identified their destructive behaviors— they don’t need the identification process. They need the strategies to help them move forward.

I am a different kind of Life Coach because I discuss behaviors in the present. I help them explain what they do. I discuss their future. I help them see what is possible and how to choose it in the future.

I don't start with the past and go forward. The past is only useful to motivate you to create the steps that help you move forward. What has caused the behavior will come out, but examining the past I will leave up to counselors and psychologists. We all have our place.

My method is a forward thinking approach for my clients. I have two nicknames from friends that are appropriate and that explain my method: George, like the curious monkey and Tigger, like the positive, bouncy tiger. I want to instill a curiosity and wonder for knowledge that changes lives while pointing you to gratitude and positivity even in the midst of the storm around you.

Positivity in storms

Be In the Present

Are you good at being in the present moment (even the hard moments or seasons) and gleaning what can be beneficial from the experience? Or, do you pine for time lost with regret and sorrow? Do you get anxiety thinking of all the things not yet happened to the point of overwhelm?

Benefits of Being In the Present

The benefits of being in the present are numerous! Enjoying the people, places and moments right where you are makes everyone enjoy the moment more. Making memories with those you love can bring comfort and calm. Also, being in the present is peaceful. When you can intentionally focus on the moment where you are and focus on who you are with, a contentment abides with you, too.

Pitfalls of not Being In the Present

There are many pitfalls to watch for. Thinking of times past leads to sorrow and regret and steals moments away from the ones you love or the places you are right in front of you. Thinking ahead to what you need to do heaps anxiety and overwhelm into your mind which also steals away moments you could be having with loved ones and places. It is only when we start to think back or forward and take our mind off the present that we start to drown.

What To Do?

Tell yourself no amount of regret, sorrow or guilt will change the past. So, you can plan better for the future so you have no regrets when the future becomes the past.

When you look back and reflect, I want you to be satisfied with your effort, your responses and your memories.
