You are committed to being coached. You are the focus of the coaching relationship and for all coaching sessions. You must come ready and prepared to be coached. Remember, you set your own goals and the agenda for the coaching session. Invest the time and focus you need each week to come fully prepared.

You are committed to being focused and engaged. During the coaching session take note of your key take-aways, what you are learning about yourself and the awareness you are gaining as you prepare to take the next steps forward. Take notes and be prepared to set new goals for the week ahead.

You are committed to being challenged. Come to the coaching session ready and willing to be stretched and challenged to go beyond your comfort zone. Don’t resist change--embrace it as a powerful process for achieving your greatest goals. Be ready to take a risk.

You are committed to transparency. Come prepared to be open, honest and transparent. You agree to contribute to the coaching conversation with honesty and openness. Without taking a risk to be open and transparent very little progress can be made. But the great news is, when we choose to be open we can experience great breakthroughs in our lives. Also be courageous in your honesty in sharing what’s working in the coaching partnership and what’s not. Remember, I’m in your corner and I’m committed to your growth and success.

You are committed to confidentiality.  Just as important as the expectations you have that I will protect your private coaching conversations and information is my expectation that you will respect the protected materials and exercises that I will be sharing with you as part of the coaching process. My coaching materials are for your individual use only.

You are committed to doing the work.  A big part of your growth and success in the coaching process is the work you will do in between our coaching sessions.  You will have weekly assignments that include a powerful devotional reading with corresponding questions for journaling. You may also be given other assessments tools to take as needed. In addition, you will be asked to keep a private journal. I ask and encourage you to pray, reflect and write during your coaching journey.  

You are committed to common courtesy and time management. When you choose me as your coach I’m 100% committed to you and to your growth and success. I expect you to be committed to me and to the coaching journey by making your coaching calls on time. I also expect you to complete weekly assignments I give you on time. As a common courtesy I ask you to return my calls and email messages in a timely manner.

You are committed to growing your relationship with God. The power of Christian coaching is centered on two key truths. 1.) Apart from a growing and vital connection and relationship with Christ we can do nothing.  (See John 15:5) The reason I encourage you to seek after God in prayer and Bible reading is because you truly need His power and presence in your life to grow forward and achieve your goals. 2.) On the flip side of this, you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you! (See Philippians 4:13) You can be confident in this, if you trust God to be your strength, all things are possible for you!
