+ What happens after I fill out the no-obligation questionnaire?

I'll get back to you within 48 business hours with a personalized response just for you. If I don’t think I can help you get the results you are looking for, I’ll let you know and share who or what I think might be able to help you at this time. If I do think we are a good fit for working together you'll get a big YES! and a possible date to start. And then… The ball is in your court, my friend. Once you let me know that you are ready (FYI, I only take a handful of new clients each month and my schedule can fill up quickly, so don't hesitate!) I’ll give you the details to schedule your first Against The Grain coaching session.

+ How soon will we get started?

Timing is everything. That being said, it all depends on my schedule, when you reach out, and when I'm booking clients. I can usually start new clients at the beginning of the following month. However, I recommend getting on my schedule as quickly as possible so you don't miss the chance to get started sooner rather than later.

+ How will we work together / What is a coaching session like?

I coach by phone or Zoom (so I can see you my beautiful friend!), whichever is most comfortable and convenient for you. During our time together we will celebrate your successes, discuss what is happening in your life, and where you want to be. The magic happens along the way through your words and thoughts. At the end of each session I will offer you a challenge, let you create your goals, and send you on your way full of new awareness and possibility. In between sessions (usually just one week) you will email me with the progress you are making and any challenges presenting themselves so I can support you until our next meeting. I'm always just an email away. You won't have to do this alone.

+ What is your refund / cancellation policy?

I get it. You're worried that coaching isn’t going to “work” for you. Let me ease your mind a bit… I do my very best to only take on clients who I feel like we are a good match together. I understand the investment you are making in yourself- I've been there too. That being said, I do not offer any full or partial refunds at any point during or after the coaching has begun. When you make the commitment to work with me, you make the commitment to show up and do the work. I know it's scary. But the good news is that you show up- because you are putting your time, energy, and money on the line. And I know that's not something you take lightly. And neither do I. The clarity and "tools" that you'll get through coaching will always be there for you, even after our time together. And that, my friend, is priceless.

As far as cancellations go, I understand- LIFE HAPPENS! I get that you're busy. Unexpected things pop up and you didn’t get the things done that you’ve committed to in your coaching and now you want to cancel your next appointment. Cancelling isn’t the answer. And that’s not how I work. Life does happen. And when it does we will bring that to the table so we can discover how you can integrate the changes you want to make into your life even when it’s happening.

+ I've been trying to figure my life/career out with no success. How do I know this is the right move for me?

If you are tired of searching, tired of reading, tired of following advice from your bff / colleague / parent / partner that leads you nowhere but back to where you started then it’s time to try something new. Everyone who is willing to do the work can benefit from working with a coach. Afterall, you are doing all the work! As your coach, I'm the facilitator in the process making sure you are doing your best, feeling supported, and reminding you all that you are capable of.

+ How long do most of your clients work with you?

Well, that depends on you, your goals, and your commitment to the process. Keep in mind:

• The agenda is client generated and coach supported. That means you will get the most out of your sessions by coming prepared and doing the work you give to yourself.
• This is a process. Be nice to yourself on your journey.
• If you live to answer the questions life is asking you life will move you in the right direction. You might not think you have the answers, I know you do.
