Virtual Online Life Career & Family Coaching

With Covid keeping us inside and 6 feet apart from one another, Virtual Life Coaching is more popular now than ever. We are feeling isolated, unstructured, and without a plan. Now more than ever is a perfect time to be identifying and setting goals while taking steps of action. What will our lives look like in 6-12 months? Is it time to make that change? Will we be forced to make that change? Together we will prepare you for what lies ahead.

I have been seeing many couples experiencing conflict during this time of Covid. Close quarters around the clock can be hurtful to any relationship. Even couples who were fine before the coronavirus and might be fine after it can benefit from support over the next few months. How do you survive these unprecedented circumstances?

Virtual Life and Career Coaching sessions provide all the same benefits of an in-person session via Facetime, Skype, phone and email!

Testimonials

" I spent one hour with three different coaches. I chose James as he made me the most comfortable, and I felt that since I had never had any type of counseling/coaching, the key ingredient was going to be my ability to feel I could speak freely and candidly. James was by far the easiest person to speak with. This was key. In the one year that I spent time working with James on my career, I realized that the "issues" I dealt with at work, were also apparent in my personal life, so really, it ended up being a combination of both business and personal. In hindsight, I don't think the two can be isolated. As James and I worked together, I was able to see how I was perceived by my body language, words, and learnt much better habits. Additionally, it was very good for my self-confidence. I can only think of any positive aspect in working with James. It was one of the best things I have done for myself. "

" I looked at several coaches, and I was impressed with James' work and interest area. Since I was looking at starting my own consulting business, James had the most knowledge about that. I think he is someone who takes a whole life approach. My original idea was to go in needing career assistance, but I needed to work on other stuff as well. James definitely helped me identify those and gave me the tools I needed to work on those areas. As I felt more and more comfortable with James we worked on things of a more personal nature as well. My original intent was to start my own business. I do some consulting now, but I think he helped me develop my career to something that I want and not what others want. In fact, I just got job offer last Friday for a really good position and in an area that I wanted. I don't think I would have gotten the offer without the tools James gave me. He helped me look at other areas of my life and identify themes that I needed to work on. The same things that were getting me stuck in my career were also related to other things in my life (relationships, decision making, etc.). I found James great to work with, and he does an excellent job of identifying the areas that need improvement. There is definitely no B.S. with James. He is direct and to the point. Or maybe I should say, he helped me become direct and to the point with my own career challenges. I do have an anecdote to demonstrate what James has done for me. When I was interviewing for the job offer I just received on Friday, several of my references told me that they mentioned that I was "very balanced" in their recommendation. Before I started working with James, I would not have called myself "balanced". Today, I would definitely say that. "
