Who is this coach for: Anyone who is serious about finding a partner to marry.
How they can help: Through various tools and techniques, coaching around values and using her THRIVE model.
First of all, how are you and your family doing in these Pandemic times?
We are doing fine.
The Pandemic is nearly over.
I work at home and have had an online business since 2005!
I’ve been coaching via Zoom before the Pandemic and my clients come from all over the US and the world.
How does the coronavirus pandemic affect your clients? Did it affect you at all?
Yes, they were home all alone. They were not spending money on travel.
2020 and 2021 were my best years in business.
People came to my Zoom sessions and my Zoom online classes.
I created a community for them.
What are the biggest lessons that you learned in this pandemic?
Value the people you have in your life and keep the lines of communication open.
Show appreciation for others and their support in your life.
Keep up your health, and take risks.
About your business, keep focusing on what you are good at and what works.
And establish great working relationships, make sure you give as well as receive.
The Origin:
Tell us about you, your career, how you started with your coaching career?
I started in 2005 as a certified professional life coach that specializes in marriage minded singles who are looking for their true love or spouses.
I was divorced in my mid to late 30’s and was struggling to find my life partner.
Someone who wanted marriage and a family like I did.
I hired a coach at 40. He was instrumental in helping me realize that my husband was the one.
I had been dating and not meeting men who wanted a committed relationship and marriage.
I now help seriously searching singles to find true love!
I have been doing this for 17 years and have hundreds of successfully coupled clients.
What was your biggest obstacle that you had to overcome in your life that made you who you are today?
My divorce in my mid 30’s. (I was married at 25 with the fairytale wedding)
I had to reinvent myself.
And I had to work on myself to learn what I wanted in life and who was a good partner for me.
I gained clarity so I could choose better this time.
I’ve been married to my second husband for 20 years.
The Coaching Style:
How do you innovate with coaching your clients?
I created the Motivated to Marry Dating Secrets coaching program.
It’s my proven step by step process for helping my clients move from hopeless to hopeful!
This is a goals and values based process that works!
I teach it to my private clients, in my Meet your Mate This Year group (12 men and women over a 4 month period) or as a home study program that has bi monthly support questions and answers community sessions.
What’s unique about your coaching approach?
I go deeper with values than most coaches.
I help my clients understand that they connect with people based on their values and how to utilize them to determine the right life partner.
I have been teaching how to go deeper with your values to my coaching colleagues.
What benefits do your clients get after working with you?
My clients get a greater sense of themselves and gain confidence in themselves.
They know who is a good fit and who is not.
They become more resilient with dating and if it doesn’t work out, they know why.
They can move on quickly.
And many of my clients do meet that special person!
They get to live the life of their dreams, have families, become part of a family and travel with that special person.
I’m also an online dating expert and 80% of my successfully coupled clients have met through an online dating site.
They get my expertise to help them have greater success with online dating.
Do you use any specific tools to be efficient with your clients?
I have many tools in my coaching toolbox.
I have over 200 hours of coaching training as an ICF certified professional coach.
My favorite coaching is around values and my THRIVE model that I created that helps my clients feel more confident about what they bring to a relationship and why they are lovable.
The Impact:
If you had a super megaphone that, when you speak into, the whole world will hear your message, what would you say?
Life is too short to waste it with someone who doesn’t appreciate you, support you and respect you.
Learn to respect yourself and hold yourself to a higher standard.
Be mindful of who you hang out with and who you spend your time with.
What is the greatest lesson you have learned in your life?
To honor your values and make sure those around you do honor your values.
Sometimes you can do something about it and sometimes you can’t.
You can choose your life partner, your friends and your work environment.
Some people you can’t choose.
You do need to decide how to be with these people and how to set boundaries around them.
Your final thoughts?
I’m fairly unique in the coaching world given my training and experience.
At my last ICF coaching conference, I was the only relationship coach.
There are plenty of divorce coaches, and many coaches don’t specialize in dating for marriage.
My niche has many people calling themselves “coach” with no training.
It’s scary. It’s like going to a doctor without a medical license. People need to know that there is a difference.
