01 Why Choose an Executive Relationship Coach for Women?

I was once asked the question of “Why should women come to you for both Executive and Relationship Coaching vs. going to two separate coaches?” Great question and one that I will answer for you today here in this episode.F

While there are good reasons to go to one or the other, there are benefits to working with a coach with the combined skill. No different than going to a therapist specializing in several areas to help you manage your emotions through different lenses.

If you are like most executive women, hiring a coach or consultant is not a new concept. How often have you hired an outside firm to help with team-building exercises, diversity, equity, inclusion initiatives; agile project management; taking your organization to the cloud, etc.? When they arrive, you expect them to understand the different systems you are currently using at your company and how they all work together to bring about the environment you want, right? In this episode, I will show you how working with an executive relationship coach is no different.

Join me on the podcast this week to learn all about my background. Listen in as I share my transformational journey with you over the past 20+ years and how blending my executive, military, domestic abuse survivor, and metaphysical experience sets me apart from the other coaches. In addition, I’m sharing a few personal stories of my own and a few client success stories to help you see how my various skills work together. It’s time you worked with a coach that understands you and has walked in your shoes before, whether they are stilettos or combat boots.

What You Will Learn:

• What Metaphysics is and how it helped to save my life
• Why my first marriage didn’t work
• Why I lost my “superpower” and how I got it back
• Why it’s important to work specifically with an executive relationship coach

I remember when I started my dating and relationship coaching business over 20 years ago and just how new dating/relationship coaching was at that time. I was still in the process of healing from an abusive marriage and had so many things that came up for me in therapy and when crying myself to sleep at night.

After years of working with traditional therapists, it was my Metaphysician that spoke to my spirit. She helped me move through the anger, fear, pain, and uncertainty in one session where I had only scratched the surface with previous therapists. So you see, I’m that person that will continue to try new things until I finally find that “one thing” that worked, and I’m so glad I did.

I had tossed around the idea of majoring in Psychology; however, the idea of not sharing real-world experiences and all of the restrictions that would come with my board certification led me down a different path. So I chose to get my degree in Metaphysics and follow in the footsteps of the woman that “gave me my life back.”

I’m a lifelong learner, but I promise you that this was one of the two times in my life where the curriculum required me to bare my soul. I had to “unearth” parts of myself that I had buried deep down inside, and I had to face the truth that several of the situations that I had found myself in were strictly of my own doing. Accepting my role in my life did not take away while this did not take away the responsibility of the perpetrators; it did open my eyes to how my actions played a part in these experiences. 

Once I was able to see the part I had played in my story, I set out on the path to help other women “write/rewrite the story” they wanted. The only way I saw to do this was to begin sharing my experiences with other women to help them know that they were not alone and that no matter what their life story had been,
