"My decision to become a coach came after a long period of soul searching. For most of my life, I’d worked in banking. I was successful. I was paid well. But the hours were long and the work largely unsatisfying. I wanted to change careers, but what to? At 38, I was worried I wouldn’t be able to replicate the level of success I’d achieved in banking, working within a new, unfamiliar environment.

I considered life coaching, but was unimpressed by what I’d seen and heard about the industry. I found it to be too wishy washy, too general. If I was going to become a coach, I’d have to develop my own approach to make it more effective, more focused, and more tailored to individual needs.

My period of self-discovery led to personality profiling. I thought it’d be a good way to better understand myself and those around me. But there were so many different approaches. Where to start? Thankfully a friend introduced me to Enneagram personality profiling, and with that I found an approach that really inspired me.

Quite frankly, Enneagram personality typology changed my life! It helped me to understand what was at the heart of my attitudes and behaviours – at home, at work and at play – and it affirmed what I always knew in terms of my strengths and limitations, but explained why. The material gave me choice because with awareness I was better able to choose healthy attitudes and behaviours. And, it helped me to make peace with my less-than-healthy attitudes and behaviours, knowing they were a normal stress response.

Discovering the Enneagram material meant I now had the basis for an effective, tailored coaching program that I believed would help everyone, regardless of circumstances.

I feel that, like me, with an understanding of what makes you tick, you’ll be better placed to choose the attitudes and behaviours that are most aligned with your highest good. Thus, setting you up for a happy, satisfying and ultimately rewarding life. "

Approach

Life In My Hands offers a set of coaching programs designed to help teenagers and adults realise their full potential. Each program is holistic, addressing the key areas of one’s life – relationships, career, health and finances – equally, knowing that each impacts the other. Importantly, each program is predicated upon the Life In My Hands philosophy of education and enablement. As such, each program is designed to empower participants with the tools, techniques and practices necessary to live a happy and satisfying life!

The primary difference between the Life In My Hands approach and that of other coaching practitioners is the use of Enneagram personality type information, which can:

• Help participants to understand why they think and do the things they do;
• Enable participants to more effectively choose healthy attitudes and behaviours; and
• Assist participants with realising their goals and living to their full potential.

Additionally, to ensure participants are afforded the best possible support, each person is provided:

• Written material, to be used as a point of reference during the program and beyond; and
• A variety of tools, techniques and practices relevant to them and their circumstances.

The Enneagram personality type information, along with tailored exercises and practical advice, form the basis of a structured, effective, solutions-focused program that can benefit anyone, regardless of personal circumstances.
