Co-active Coaching: Your Invitation to Living Success and Satisfaction
Posted on June 07, 2010 by Bob Esposito, One of Thousands of Leadership Coaches on Noomii.
Success-filled life and work is first about being who you are then making powerful choices aligned with you most desired future self.
The world is well populated with helpers. Most often when someone decides that things in their life could be more exciting, juicier, more genuine, simpler, more enthusiastic, more meaningful…they seek out the help of someone who offers help, and especially answers. Sometimes they get help. Often, though, they get more tasks to add to their to-do’s. Someone else’s, though expert, solutions. These solutions often take on a burdensome, imposed quality and often fade off one’s radar, leaving only a new, vague sense of incompleteness, maybe even guilt.
I practice an alternative approach that is powerful, genuine, inspiring, liberating, in short, life-changing. My approach, Co-Active Coaching, helps you invite your self to a fulfilled way of life. Rather than assume that you need an expert to discover your needs and wants for you and to select dazzling advice and solutions for you to implement, I begin with the conviction that you are already, by nature, fully capable, inventive, resourceful. I bring my professional skills and knowledge to embrace your deepest values and dreams. I listen with interest and empathy. I accept you as you are, rather than assume that you are incomplete or need to be fixed. I employ my professional skill, background and resources to help you find the answers that are already within you or that you have the power to find for yourself.
I won’t tell you what to do. You know deep down what is best for your life. I help you call it out and clarify it, I help you commit to living in alignment with it. I won’t tell you what you should do, feel, be like. I help you discover disempowering beliefs, unaware assumptions, to acknowledge them and free yourself from their tendency to dull your vitality and tarnish your satisfaction with your life. I, as your own powerful partner and ally, listen deeply, champion your agenda, invite you to stretch, hold you to account and encourage you. I reflect your own greatness back to you. I confront you when you drift from your goals. In our work together, I help and support your growth, you change your life. Together we celebrate what you have learned—who you really are; what you have done—chosen to live in the spirit of your highest values; and the legacy you desire to live—your truest most magnificent self. You are worth the effort.
