Lifestyle Wellness Coaching is life coaching specifically related to achieving your wellness goals. It helps you create a wellness lifestyle for yourself, your family and your business.
Coaching is frequently utilized by individuals to assist them in creating wellness, abundance and harmonic lifestyles during the entire life cycle– before and beyond retirement. Coaching can begin before a crisis such as unemployment or the ‘empty nest syndrome’ occurs. Maybe you are experiencing a transitional period in your life, want to start a new career path, you are a baby boomer in the pre-retirement stage or you’ve retired and lack direction, and you may be moving into the age group most likely at risk to develop a chronic disease. Life coaching is not a substitute for a therapist, psychologist or counselor.
Life coaching can help you address:
- If you could design your life from this day forward, what would it look like?
- How you can live authentically, have a more abundant lifestyle, with gratitude and enjoy the later stage of your life.
- Providing you the objective support of a professional to help you stay focused, hold you accountable, champion your efforts while you are working toward you professional, business and personal goals.
- Your desire to include self-care practices and habits to improve your quality of life.
Life Coaching Clients
Life coaching is a relationship between a professional and action-oriented and motivated individual, who takes responsibility for their life and lifestyle. The client and the coach enter into partnership and co-create the client’s goals. The client is the master painter of her/his life.
My ideal life coaching clients are mid-life and mature professionals who want to live an authentic life, on purpose, their way. They want to live this stage of their lives from a position of gratitude, on purpose and holistically, in a manner they plan versus the plans of other people.
My coaching approach includes the “whole person” and is co-created to help you gain personal insight into your state of physical, emotional, and spiritual wellness. The program offers insight and tools to transform the new awareness into lasting changes in your life, and a renewed sense of health and wellbeing. Coaching sessions propel you toward your life goals.
Becoming a Client
I provide individual and group coaching to clients in their office, online and by phone.
Payment must be received prior to the coaching sessions. I will send you a request for payment at the agreed pre-determined rate. The rate is reduced for members of the Lifestyle Wellness Network community. After payment for coaching, we will schedule a date and time that is convenient and mutually agreeable. Payment is not refundable.
To begin, clients are required to fill out a Personal Fact Sheet, Client Agreement Form and complete a wellness self-assessment as needed. We will review the self-assessment results together. We will then address your health and wellness goals in our subsequent coaching sessions.

What are the benefits of coaching?
A life coach can serve as your partner and explore ways with you whereby you can create the life you desire during pre– and post-retirement. You are the ‘painter’ and the ‘architect’ of your lifestyle. A life coach will listen and guide you in defining your goal, creating a plan and determining the action steps to achieve your desired goal(s). The coach serves as facilitator of the process and you are the expert in your life. A coach supports you, the client.
