I work with entrepreneurs – people who create their own work. Freelancers and founders who are driven by purpose and service.

I work one-on-one with you. I’m the coach and guide. You’re the hero of the story, making the journey through life and work.

The goal is the emergence of more of your own true self, and the integration of the facets that make up your brilliance. The goal is also the achievement of your own goals, reaching the milestones that you’re driving toward, succeeding at the game of work (however you define success).

This is not something that can be achieved in a couple of sessions. Therefore, the coaching packages I offer span several months. This is the depth of container that I’ve found is necessary for our work.

How I work with you

I don’t have a set recipe I’m following. The coaching journey is unique because you’re unique. We discover the answers together, as you walk your path.

What I do work from is a whole host of principles and frameworks. These are the things I write about and have explored for many years.

One framework that we’ll use during our work is the archetypal triad of the Artist, Merchant and Seeker. These are primary dimensions of an entrepreneur.

• The Artist is the part of you that creates beauty because you’re moved to. When you touch people with your art, you change them.
• The Merchant is the part of you that enters the marketplace with your goods. When you offer your value, it improves the world for everyone.
• The Seeker is the part of you that thirsts for understanding of the world. When you seek the truth, you liberate who we really are.

These archetypes work like three legs of a stool, raising up a platform upon which you can stand and deliver your work into the world. And if one of the legs is missing, the whole business of work can become a rather wobbly affair.

One of the things that distinguishes my coaching is that I include these multiple dimensions and see no contradiction between them. Quite the opposite. When included and integrated, magical things can happen.

The deep search for truth, the expression of your creative passions, and the business of work in the marketplace are all parts of the same whole.

In other words, I’m able to work on marketing plans, read profit and loss statements with you…and hold vigil while you connect with your soul truth in the moment. It’s all part of the same work to me.

Equally, I’m just as happy to work on different emphases throughout the coaching. We can spend the whole time focussed on marketing and coaching you through copywriting and promotion. Or we can take a deep dive into your own existential rabbit holes, and help you discover who’s under there. Or both. It’s really up to your goals and intentions, and the mystery of the coaching journey that can take us into unexpected places.

Throughout this, I bring my 18 years on the entrepreneurial-spiritual path to bear on our work together. If you want to know more, you can read more about my journey here.

What this can do for you…

From one perspective the goal is simple. Results. You succeed—reaching the milestones that you’re driving toward, and succeeding at the game of work — whatever “winning” looks like for you. Common things I’ve helped clients with are…

• Attracting more clients or increased revenue for your business
• Creating and launching a new product, book or course
• Starting a new venture or rebranding yourself

These kinds of results go hand in hand with the inner game, and the changes that occur there. Things like…

• Liberating self-expression and creativity, giving you access to your art
• Discovering your deeper truer self and feeling what you’re called to next
• Forging your courage and inner strength in the face of challenge

The ultimate goal is transformation itself where things change inside and outside. You align with your true self. You become integrated in your full entrepreneurial range, allowing your whole self to play the game.

This creates a life experience that feels deeply meaningful and wholesome, and feeds greater long-term success in your work mission.

Some clients come to me with very clear goals and intentions for the work. You know where you’re going, and you need help to get there.

Often, the call to coaching is intuitive. You’re not even quite sure what the goal is. Something big is changing or ending, you feel at a crossroads, or lost down the wrong track. Maybe you don’t even know what’s next, but you can feel you want to find out, and have guidance to do so.

The call to coaching is like a call to adventure. Though in fact, if you’re reading this, the adventure has already begun.
