ABOUT MENTAL PERFORMANCE COACHING
Not at all. Athletes may have made mental performance coaching familiar, but the mental side of performance matters anywhere people are doing challenging, meaningful work. I coach executives, entrepreneurs, leaders, performers, creators, athletes, professionals, and other highly driven people. The arena changes. The human brain comes along with you.
It's coaching focused on the person doing the performing. Your thinking, your emotional regulation, your decision-making, your confidence, your habits, and your relationship with pressure. We work on the internal patterns that shape how you show up, so you can perform at a high level with more clarity and less friction.
Both can be valuable, but they serve different purposes. Mental performance coaching focuses on your present circumstances, future goals, patterns, decisions, behaviors, and performance. Licensed mental health professionals are qualified to diagnose and treat mental health conditions. Some people benefit from working with both a therapist and a coach.

IS IT RIGHT FOR ME?
You don't need to be struggling or at a breaking point to benefit from coaching. In fact, it can be especially useful when things are going well but you know you're capable of creating something you haven't created yet. Maybe you want to perform more sustainably, make a major decision, pursue an ambitious goal, navigate a transition, strengthen your confidence, or stop letting familiar mental patterns limit what's possible.
It varies, but common themes include decision-making under pressure, overthinking, perfectionism, confidence and self-trust, performance anxiety, difficult conversations, leadership presence, boundaries, burnout, recovering from setbacks, focus, and building habits that support the person you want to become. We don't start with a predetermined curriculum. We start with you.
That's completely normal, and it's exactly what a Breakthrough Call is for. You don't need to arrive with the perfect goal or the right words. We'll figure out together what you actually want and whether coaching can help you get there.

HOW COACHING WORKS
We'll identify what you want to create and explore what's helping or interfering with your ability to create it. That often means looking at your thoughts, emotional patterns, decisions, habits, and behaviors. You'll experiment with different ways of thinking and responding, take action, notice what happens, and use what you learn to decide the next step.
Sessions are held over Zoom, so we can work together wherever you are. Individual sessions are 45 minutes. Group sessions are 90 minutes.

It's a conversation about where you are, where you want to go, and what may be getting in the way. We'll explore whether coaching could be useful and whether we're a good fit to work together. If we are, we'll talk about the option that makes the most sense. No pressure.
Then that's okay, and there's no obligation. The point of the Breakthrough Call is to find out. If coaching isn't right, or isn't right yet, you'll still leave with a clearer sense of your next step.
