What does a holistic author coach do?
I listen, hold space for whatever you’re dealing with, and then together, we decide on the next steps that are right for you. I can provide a new perspective on your work.
I practice unconditional positive regard with all my clients. This is a basic acceptance and support of you regardless of where you are on the publishing path. I respect your humanity, your dignity, and your personal autonomy.
More importantly, I help you access the creativity and solutions hidden inside you so you can create your own path forward. A coach doesn’t tell you WHAT TO DO, a coach helps you tap into that part of yourself that KNOWS the next step.
How does it work?
We talk through a video call or text or email — your choice of medium — about your work. Where are you stuck? What’s going great? What are your plans?
I have a comprehensive toolkit of modalities and practices we can use to come to some answers. Some are based in psychology. Others are based in our subconscious symbols and rhythms.
We find answers and I stay with you every step of the way to help you achieve your goals.
