​Opera Singer Finds Her Voice
The issue: A seasoned opera singer was overwhelmed by her self-criticism and internal critics.

The work: Together we examined these harsh internal voices that were getting in her way of her expression. We had conversations with those self critics and learned how they could actually serve her productively. 
 
The result: She learned that when examined closely, her negative voices actually want to protect her. With this knowledge, she harnessed those impulses in service of her artistic expression. With her refocused energy, she is able to accept more auditions and as a result, books more work. Most importantly, she has reconnected with her deepest purpose and is able to enjoy the audition process for the first time.
 
Composer Turns "Salesy" Into Excitement
The issue: A performer and composer wasn't comfortable "selling" himself, yet he needed to promote himself and his work in order to further his career. 

The work: In our sessions together, he got in touch with the deepest "whys" of his work.  From there, we discussed tools he could use and identified reminders to help him access this genuine excitement before having conversations with potential producers.

The result: He was able to rediscover and articulate his passion about his art.  He is now able to walk into a room and talk about his work in a way that no longer feels "salesy." By genuinely understanding his purpose and using reminders to focus on the bigger picture, he is able to engage in authentic conversations with those who can help him bring his vision to life.

Frequently asked questions.

What is coaching?
Coaching is a powerful relationship that helps you gain clarity and realize goals.  You’ll receive support, learn tools to move through personal obstacles, and realize change. 

What can I expect from a coaching session?
You can expect 100% of my attention and support, along with complete confidentiality. You can expect clarifying questions, fine-tuned action plans, and accountability. You can expect a safe place to explore and grow.

How is coaching different than therapy?
Coaching meets you where you are now and is action focused, whereas therapy generally focuses on the past and healing of traumas.   Coaching focuses on personal growth and moving you toward your goals in the present moment.

How are sessions conducted?
Inner Artist Coaching sessions occur via video chat or over the phone and last 60 minutes.  You set the intention for the call and we dig deep!  I'll employ a wide variety of tools, from powerful questions to visualization, that will get to heart of the matter.  Every session will end with action steps we set together, and a time frame in which to complete them.  We'll establish accountability around these actions and will have an check in via email when you've completed them.  Everything is in service of helping you create the life you long to live.
