As a Retreat Facilitator, I help you carve out time and go to a conducive space to focus on you, expanding your attention and awareness. And if you are a person of faith, to sit in silence before God, engaging in contemplative prayer, self-examination, and practical planning.
Awareness of your deeper resources and obstacles often takes some extended time away from distractions.
Retreats can be a half-day, full-day, or weekend; one-on-one, small groups, or large groups.

What is a Coaching Session
With Me Like?
My coaching sessions last 45 minutes to an hour and consist of three phases: agreement, awareness, and action.
In the agreement phase, I will ask you what you’d like to accomplish in the session, your desired outcome. “What would you like to walk away with today, and why is the outcome important to you?”
For example, a person might say, “I’m retiring soon, and I want to start writing.”
As the coach, I will not consult this client on publishing strategies or teach them how to write. I will try to help them gain greater awareness of their desire to write and the resources they already possess.
Once the agreement is made, I won’t try to take you somewhere else. However, you can adjust the goal of the session.
In the awareness phase, we will explore your current situation regarding what you’ve been trying to accomplish. “Are you making progress? Are you facing obstacles or inner resistance?”
In connection with the example above on writing, we’ll explore why writing is important to the client, what kind of writing they wish to engage in and for whom, how much they’ve been writing, and what has been challenging about the process.
In the action phase, we get concrete and realistic about the next steps and how we’ll know you've accomplished them.
If the client has not been writing as much as thinking about writing, we’ll start by setting weekly goals for hours spent writing (without worrying about editing or grammar)—just putting down some words and seeing what feels good, rather than discussing how to publish a book.
