FAQ

The coaching relationship is meant to deepen your learning about yourself and forward your action to help you make powerful choices, live the most fulfilled life possible and experience everything life has to offer. As your coach, I am your partner on your journey. My role is to bust up your limiting beliefs so you can create the life you want. Everything we discuss is confidential.
WHAT DO I EXPECT FROM YOU AS THE CLIENT?
I trust that you have a hunger to commit to the process, to approach this with a curious mind for learning more about yourself and a desire to make significant changes in your life. While you may not know where you are sailing, you do need to be courageous to embrace the open waters and explore new territory.
HOW IS COACHING DIFFERENT FROM THERAPY?
Coaching is not advice, therapy or counseling. While therapy focuses more on the “why” and the past, coaching addresses what is now and what do we do moving forward. Coaching also focuses on any life or business goal and overall personal growth.
HOW LONG DOES THE COACHING RELATIONSHIP LAST?
While you will experience immediate benefits from engaging in coaching, sustainable change takes time. A minimum of six months is typically needed to realize significant change pending your level of commitment and courage. Many clients continue for years!
WHERE DOES COACHING TAKE PLACE?
Nearly all coaching is conducted via phone unless we agree otherwise. The effectiveness of the coaching is maintained over the phone and also allows for efficiency of our time.
WHAT IS CO-ACTIVE COACHING?
Janine was trained and certified by the Coaches Training Institute (CTI). CTI coaching holds that people are naturally creative, resourceful and whole – completely capable of finding their own answers to whatever challenges they face. The job of a Co-Active Coach® is to ask powerful questions, listen and empower to elicit the skills and creativity a client already possesses, rather than instruct or advise.

FOR CORPORATE CLIENTS, ISN’T THIS LIFE COACHING AT WORK?
You are a dynamic human being as well as a human doing. There’s so much more to you than performance appraisals in the work place. By being 100% of who you are at your core — the values ingrained in you– everybody wins….your manager, your team members, your direct reports, your family, your community, your friends, the universe…YOU win! Therefore, it is your whole life that is addressed in the coaching through whatever agenda you bring up because one part of you impacts the whole of you.
