An Introduction





Now more than ever, we need to understand how to use what comes naturally to us. We need to be authentic; we need to develop wisdom, courage, humanity, justice, temperance and transcendence. We need to be connected to love and be loved.

No matter what is happening in the world right now or where you are, there are many experiences and people who are ready to support you and your way though.   Experiences to engage us and people to enrich our daily lives with joy and happiness.

I am getting busier at Coastline Coaching, and I believe it is because many people are using this time to begin their journey of discovering their strengths in this changing world. For me, discovering your strengths, simply knowing what they are is not a quick fix. It is a careful, delicate process that takes time.  In fact, the first step is understanding what they are and how you can embrace them as a part of your life. 

The next step is working with the tools and strategies consistently with the right guidance to make positive change.

While the pandemic is keeping us locked in doors, there has never been a better time to begin this process… so when things get back to normal, we’ll have a strong set of tools to work with and get back into a new normal life more confidently.

When you take the first step to discovering what comes naturally, I will be with you every step of the way.

We start by getting to know your strengths really well, over the next few one to one meeting (whether in person or online) to truly understand who you are and what comes most naturally to you. Even if you are not totally sure what that means right now.

I can become your “Personal Coach” continuously working with you to develop a specific area of your life or just being happier.

Unlike some coaches who work with goals I look deeper into what really makes you tick and work hard to tailor a program to your needs and goals.

And while this process does take some time, right now, time is one thing we all have plenty of.
So, why wait?

It is easy to get started.

To begin your journey to discovering your strengths, visit my website today to register online, or call me directly.

I cannot wait to hear from you!

For support in discovering and developing your strengths I work with small groups and individuals face to face and online www.coastlinecoaching.co.nz.

Keep it Simple

I have often asked myself how can I be a better coach?   As I did this, I clicked a link in an email to the Coaching Tools Company and the answer was right there “ Be a better coach by aligning your life with your values" . This made perfect sense to be given I work with developing strengths and continuing to work with and learn about my greatest strengths and learning how to apply them to my life, being authentic in my work and my relationships.   The author talks about embracing the concept of “Voluntary Simplicity” a philosophy developed by Henry Walden Thoreau in the late 1800s. The concept itself have existed in different forms since even earlier being traced back to 300BC when a Greek philosopher; Epicurus advocated simple, moderate living.   The Japanese also embrace the concept of Shibui to mean “elegant simplicity.” This idea is not about denying what you want or need in favour of a minimalist lifestyle, it is about embracing your values and beliefs i

Changes in coaching

As psychology has become more involved with coaching, professional opinions have shifted from suggesting that life coaching was an invalad undisciplined industry.   Recognising   the sheer number of people and business employing life or corporate coaches psychology as a discipline has come to view coaching as a positive influence in the world.   The Australian Psychological Society for example has an interest group of coaching psychologists who are invested in introducing the application of psychological principles to life coaching practice. Consider for a moment the traditional intention of psychology, to bring a person form a negative frame of reference, as identified in the diagnostic statistical manual (DSM) to a neutral frame of reference.   The advent of applied positive psychology has taken this a step further, adding the necessity to bring an individual of any state of mind further into the positive.   Applied positive psychology uses established approaches like behavi
