Individual Coaching

You wake up and wonder if there’s “something more”. There’s something important inside you that’s been dying to come out, to be expressed, to be made known, to come alive.

You’ve got 100 reasons why you can’t listen to that part of you. Why you’re sure what it wants is impractical, unrealistic, not possible right now, or just not possible for you.

Besides, where you are right now is “fine”. You can’t complain. (Except to yourself in the middle of the night.)

Here’s the thing. That part of you that’s been trying to get you to pay attention to it is going start getting VERY LOUD if you keep ignoring it.

The yearnings inside you  are important. I’d say even essential. They’re trying to connect you with the deeper truth of you. They’re trying to point you towards the kind of personal evolution that will make you feel like you’re fully alive. They’re wanting you to shift in a direction you won’t regret at the end of your days, when you’ll be able to say, “You know what? I really LIVED.”

I’ve struggled over the years to be clear about what my coaching offers my clients. Until I realized that what I do at the core is help my clients listen better to themselves, honour their desires, and make the practical shifts in their lives to feel more alive. Here are a few examples of the progress my clients have experienced:

  • A creative who expanded too quickly and lost her business created a new business where she creates beautiful artwork in her own unique style. Plus her relationship with her husband got a lot better because she felt more fulfilled.
  • A CFO who thought she needed to leave her high stress job to sculpt, started doing art in the evenings and seeing more of her friends, which made her so happy she stayed at her job and is now CEO. Plus her relationship with her husband got better. (Funny how that happens when we stop catering to other people and feel more fulfilled.)
  •  A stressed out senior executive who was working in a toxic environment started to make decisions guided only by his own value system and ethical principles. Which made him way less stressed, more motivated, more content and feeling more in control. Which in turn made him a magent for similarly minded people who want  to work with him.
  • A business consultant in high demand wrote a series of business books, started public speaking AND kept her consulting practice. She started showing up so differently that her boss, having noticed the change, asked if she could coach him to show him how to think differently. And she spends more joyful time with her kids.
  • A woman who suffered from anxiety and worry about her health and her family discovered a profound sense of presence and calm that allowed her to feel deeply rooted in the moment, more spiritually connected, and able to enjoy life in a way that feels meaningful to her.
  • A young woman who’d suffered major injuries in an accident found contentment in the midst of her slow journey back to physical fitness, less striving, plus an unleashing of creative writing, poetry and business planning.
  • A music executive found a way to work fewer hours, spend less time catering to other people, enjoy the hours she works more, AND start exploring what she really wants for herself, instead of what other people want for her.
  • A new coach discovered ways to find and help clients that felt comfortable and motivating to her, while allowing her to be authentically herself. No elevator pitches. No striving.

If you’re looking for something more and want to explore if coaching with me is right for you, let’s talk. You can sign up for a free personal strategy session to talk about you’ve been yearning to do and why you think you haven’t been able to do it. In the free session, I’ll offer you a new perspective about what I think the issues are, and how you could move from where you are now to where you want to be.  I’ve had several people get fantastic results just from the free consult alone.

Heather’s coaching made it easier to manifest the outcomes I want for myself.  Heather focuses on my mindset and getting it aligned with the goals I want to achieve.  Through our work together, I was able to get myself into the mindset of a successful writer, which energized me, boosted my confidence and helped me see the opportunities that were all around me to accomplish that goal.  Through my mindset and choosing empowering feelings, I was able to complete a draft of my book that I am proud of within the timelines I set for myself.  I find it easier to maintain my focus more consistently with the tools Heather shares.  Issues that arise have less of an impact on me.

Heather’s coaching changed my mind.  Heather’s very practical approach to coaching helped me to understand how thoughts determine feelings and as a result actions, so if I want to change how I feel about a certain situation (at work or at home), all I have to do is change my thoughts and the rest will take care of itself.  It is so simple, yet so powerful.  Thank you Heather for the power to change my mind.

I’ve had the privilege of getting coaching from Heather for nearly two years and it’s been nothing short of life-changing.  Heather has coached me through a major career change, two international moves, healing from chronic neck and back pain, and all of the life issues that arise from being a working mom with two young kids. With her guidance, I’ve gone from being uncertain and terrified to leave my comfort zone to creating the life I envisioned for myself.

Heather has a unique ability that allows her to get to the core of any issue with lightening speed. Her coaching is so much richer than a single method – it’s a finely crafted blend of approaches combined with a certain X factor that comes from her wisdom and intuition.  I’ve worked with a lot of coaches, but I’ve never found anyone like Heather.

If you’re ready for a more joyful, creative and rich experience of live, my advice is: call Heather Kerr.
