Coaching: Frequently Asked Questions
Why is coaching better than other forms of development?
The best part about coaching is that it’s catered to YOUR agenda, unlike an off-the-shelf training solution. YOU are always in the driver seat for how you will move forward. Studies have shown that coaching leads to results, including increased productivity and fulfillment.
How can you help me if you have never experienced my current or desired role or industry?
The good news is that coaching is not about telling you what to do or mentoring you, so I do not have to know anything about your job, targeted career, or industry. You have the tools you need to reach your goals. The magic of coaching occurs through thought-provoking questions that help you explore your goals and sort out an actionable strategy.
How can you help me if I am relatively new to my targeted career?
Being new to your career is particularly advantageous because you have so much you know you need to learn—an automatic growth mindset. Curiosity is the perfect attitude to bring to your coaching sessions for the best outcome.
How can you help me if I have senior level experience in my career?
That depends—How is your growth mindset? Do you believe you know everything, or are you hungry to explore more? If you have an appetite for learning from others and an openness to being challenged, then you can expect that the thought-provoking questions and conversations that occur during coaching will be just what you need to break through your challenges and continue to expand your future potential.
How much does coaching cost?
Coaching is an investment in yourself, and the return on that investment is entirely in your hands. Individuals engaging in coaching are statistically more likely to reach their goals. They also express that they get back their investment in coaching plus more following their coaching sessions. Coaching starts at around $120 for a 25-minute session. Depending upon the coaching package you choose, you’ll receive additional resources to keep you focused and motived. You can also add services as desired. Individual coaching service bundles, such as pathways, can range from $250 to about $5,000. Team and organizational services are customized proposals. My goal is to be fully transparent in my pricing. You can find updated pricing for services by logging into your member account. I also provide ways for you to save on coaching through memberships, subscriptions, and bundled packages.
How much time does it take to coach?
Our first session together is critical for us to get to know one another and whether we’re a good fit. After your first session, there are two main types of sessions you can choose from. Full coaching sessions run 50 minutes. I know many of my clients are busy, so I created 25-minute mini-sessions to help you continue to make progress with a tight schedule.
Do you coach in-person?
All coaching sessions are conduction online via ZOOM. Corporate team sessions may be requested on-site. Please contact me at info@flowmomentum.com if you are a corporate client.
What happens during our First Chat? Are you going to sell me something?
Your first chat with me, is not meant to be a sales meeting but rather an introduction to one another. I want to get to know you and see if you are the right client for me. You also want to get to know me to see if I am the right coach for you. In order to do that, I offer you access to me for a designated period of time without pressure or obligation. During this session, we discover more about the things that are important to you and answer any questions you may have about my services as they relate to where you want to go. You always have full control of whether you want to purchase services and continue our relationship. I don’t want you to be my client unless you truly believe I’m bringing value to your specific targets.
Will anyone else, like my boss, find out about what we discuss?
I follow the ICF code of ethics, so what we discuss stays with me under typical circumstances. Examples of when I am required to share information include if you’re involved in something illegal, unethical, or something that hurts yourself or others. Otherwise, I will inform you prior to our discussions about any organizational expectations (if you are a corporate client). If there are other reasons I believe the conversation may need to be shared, I will obtain your permission ahead of time.
How can I get coaching for my team members?
I offer team coaching as well as individual coaching. Feel free to contact me via info@flowmomentum.com, so we can discuss your specific needs.
