The GET IT approach
The five phases of the GET IT approach are designed to help you finally break free from your Groundhog Day career.
We’ll focus on you as a whole person and spend as much time as needed in the phases, supporting you with coaching, to recognise what you really want and to go and GET IT.
Get it out of your head
Slow down, take a breath and know that you are safe to say whatever you need.
Find the courage to hear your voice say out loud that thing in the back of your head.
Feel a weight off your shoulders from getting it out.
Embrace who you really are
Focus on yourself, for once, and share how you feel and what’s most important for you.
Bring your purpose to life by describing your core values and greatest passion(s).
Understand what you really want and need rather than what you think you should.
Grow your confidence by learning which self beliefs can help you, which are holding you back.
Trust what you want is possible
Reflect and learn from when you’ve already been successful.
Understand how to support your energy when making changes.
Change your inner dialogue about what you are capable of.
Give yourself permission to put yourself first and to stop doing what is no longer right for you.
Investigate your options
Create your unique vision aligned with your skills and strengths and purpose.
Get clarity on what options feel authentic to who you really are and what you really want.
Work out what resources and help you might need and what might get in your way.
Define the boundaries you need to make the changes.
Take action to go and get it
Work out the steps that feel right for you to move you towards your vision.
Commit to taking action and making exciting changes.
Reflect on what worked, what didn’t and what you've learned along the way.
Feel a huge sense of satisfaction and achievement when you GET IT.
What is coaching?
There are a wide variety of coaching styles and this answer to this will vary depending on which coach you ask.
As a transformational coach, I provide a safe, fun and energising space to think about yourself and what you want to achieve. My approach aligns closely with the ICF definition of coaching:
“Partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential.”
We all have the resources in us to identify our challenges and to make subsequent changes and that coaching can help us identify these.
I’ll listen carefully, ask you questions, offer up reflection and exercises to support you to build awareness, transform your thinking and stretch yourself.
I help my clients think for themselves rather than do the thinking for them. I won’t offer you answers or solutions, as I’m not the expert on you, you are. The ideas you will come up with will always be more authentic and right for you and therefore you are more likely to be committed to doing them.
Coaching is a talking and thinking space so can sometime be confused with therapy. It isn’t the same as therapy as it is generally forward-looking, with occasional glances to past events (if needed), only to help unlock and mobilise thought processes. rather than spending time in the past with a view to understand and to heal. I won’t push you to regularly explore past events in detail.
