Multi - Level Support for Wholistic Well-Being
Patti newton
As your Personal Life Coach I intend to provide:
COMMITMENT - knowledge and empathy.
OPPORTUNITY- to express your feelings, gain insight into the next steps you will need to take on the path in your journey.
ACCEPTANCE - I will hear and listen to you and accept you wherever you are in your life without judging you.
CARING - I will guide you through the changes in your life with caring and support. I will walk with you through the fear of making new changes and going in a new direction.
HONESTY - I will give you honest feedback and will keep you honest by pointing things out in a caring way.
My style of Life Coaching Offers You:
- The opportunity to discover what is most important to you in your life, including what part of your life you want to change or modify.
- The structure to set goals to achieve what you want to accomplish.
- The possibility of eliminating any obstacles or hurdles that stand in your way.
- The time to examine your current situation, explore your current and future options, and get clear about what you want, and how you can reach your personal goals.
I was certified in 2011 by 'The Fowler Wainwright International Institute of Professional Coaching'. It was a unique program that combined traditional coaching methods with a more wholistic approach to support the individual.
What is a Life Coach?
Support for Identifying and Reaching Personal Life Goals
- A life coach is someone who counsels and encourages clients through personal or career challenges.
- A life coach helps guide clients to reach their ultimate goals.
- A life coach can help individuals in different areas of their life. But because each human being is different, so will their goals.
Coaches are motivators. They are objective in their guidance, yet passionate to see their clients succeed
Life Coaching vs. Therapy
Life coaches identify and describe current problematic behaviors so the client can work to modify them. Therapists analyze their client's past as a tool for understanding present behaviors. In other words, therapists focus on “why” certain behavioral patterns occur, and coaches work on “how” to work toward a goal.
Creating a Vision and a Plan
A life coach is someone who can clarify where your life is right now while supporting you in creating a vision of where you want it to go and a plan to get there. Throughout the process, a personal life coach will not only guide you, but they will provide you with the support you need throughout this journey.
Develop Healthy Self-empowerment:
- Make well thought out decisions for yourself
- Prioritize and define your goals - clarify how you can achieve them.
- Clearly articulate your desires and stay accountable to your objectives
Successful coaching is all about listening, understanding and asking the right questions.
Managing Anxiety
Since coaching focuses on individuals taking ownership to help improve future behaviors, it can be an effective way for many people with anxiety to help overcome some of their symptoms .
Autonomous motivation means the person/client controls the decision-making process. The coach provides resources and support and nudges as needed, but the coachee is in charge.
Creating An Upward Spiral
Generating positive emotions:
- inspiration
- hope
- pride
- interest
- love
- awe
- amusement
- joy
- gratitude
- serenity
Coaching creates the space for clients to build on these emotions and flourish.
Creating a more ideal version of your life - A Co-Creative Process
A life coach partners with clients as they work toward a more ideal version of their life. Together, the coach and client may focus on bettering areas such as career, self-care, relationships, or anything else impacting the client’s daily well-being.
Coaching is typically a co-creative process led by the client’s wants and needs. The coach’s role in the process is to use various tools and techniques intended to help the client identify their goals, recognize obstacles, and draw from their motivations in order to work toward making those goals a reality.
Why Coaching in Today’s World?
People are looking for accountability and structure to achieve their dreams and goals. To be held responsible for specific actions and they want the unwavering support from a coach who is committed to their success

Addressing all aspects of Life
Life Coaching support can be applied to any aspect of our lives: Career, Family, Relationship, Health, Skill building and Education, Creative Projects, Life Style, Self image and Personal Confidence, and Life Direction.
Small Business Idea & Development
As a small Business owner for over 35 years I have a close relationship with developing and running a small business as my livelihood. An entrepreneur is an individual who creates a new business, and is commonly seen as an innovator, a source of new ideas, goods, services, and business/or procedures. This level of coaching is based on the curriculum I developed to combine practical business considerations with more individual goals, intentions and objectives.
All stages of life
Teens, Young Adults, Mid-Life, Elders - All stages of our human development present their own unique set of challenges and our ability to navigate them. At any stage of life we may desire to re-assess and set new uplifting goals and intentions or make positive changes!
