Spirited Personal Life & Wellness Coaching for Equines and Their Owners

 
        The coaching relationship is an ongoing partnership that helps you produce fulfilling results in your personal and professional life. Through the process of coaching, you will deepen your learning, improve your performance, and enhance the quality of your life. 

      Statistics show that people trying to improve their lives achieve significantly greater results when using a coach. An effective coach can guide you, motivate you, and educate you. Coaches provide accountability and discipline. Coaching accelerates your progress toward important goals by providing greater focus and awareness of your choices. 

     Shamanism, or the way of the Shaman, is a spiritual practice using journeys to non-ordinary reality to gain information for healing. Shamans spend their lives healing people, animals, communities, and the earth. Shamans try to live a balanced life, as in touch with Spirit as possible, and they try to help others find balance in life as well.

 
     If you find yourself at a point in your life where you just can't seem to accomplish what you set out to do and you're ready for help, you've come to the right place. My systematic approach will guide you to success. You can count on me to be there, every step of the way, as you define your goals, create simple action plans, and celebrate your achievements.
 
    Spirited Life & Wellness Coaching Services for you or for your horse follow basically the same structure. The difference is the *focus* of the conversation. Coaching for you focuses on your personal goals and what you personally want to achieve in your life, while coaching for your horse focuses on your horse's wellness and your goals for him or her. I also offer combination coaching, where we concentrate on you and your horse together.

 

Getting Started:

    I find that most people like to have some idea of what to expect, so what follows is a brief outline of the coaching process:

1.   I offer a complimentary introductory session. This free session can happen in person or over the telephone. This is a great opportunity for you to discover what coaching is all about and get a taste of what coaching with me would be like. If you decide that you want to go ahead with life coaching from Black Horse Consulting, we will decide which coaching package would best suit you and/or your horse, and come to a coaching agreement. We will decide on a coaching day and time that works for both of us, and we will schedule an intake session.

2.     The intake session can take up to 2 hours. In this session, I will begin to find out more about your preferences, challenges, goals, values, and lifestyle choices. We will discuss how you would like me to coach you. We will evaluate all aspects of your well-being and discover the areas of your life where you might be out of balance. If you have chosen to use the Online Wellness Portal (an interactive website that can be made available to you through Black Horse Consulting), I will  enroll you and demonstrate how to navigate the site and utilize its many wonderful features. We will go over some coach/client ground rules, discuss what you want to accomplish with a Spirited Life Coach, discover where you are in the process of change right now, and find out what things you have attempted already in your quest to attain your important goals. We will begin to understand what may be blocking you from achieving these goals, and clarify what you will and won't do to get where you want to be. I will spend most of this initial session really getting to know you.


3.     After the intake session, we will start the coaching process. We will begin working on any concerns you may have. This usually consists of sessions by phone, though some or all of them could be in person. The frequency of the session will be based on your preference. Sessions vary in length from 20 to 45 minutes, depending on which package you have chosen. You will be able to contact me by email at any time. I will ask you to complete a “Call Focus Form” before each meeting so that our upcoming coaching session is focused and organized. In each meeting, we will choose the focus of conversation together, and I will listen and contribute observations and questions. This interaction creates clarity for you, and will help move you into action. We will talk about your situation, your challenges and your struggles with being able to implement change in your life. We will discuss the things that matter to you in regard to your well-being. We will explore how you can best overcome any obstacles to your achievement. We will focus on your goals, and work together to create a specific action plan, including steps to take, resource materials, and things to consider before our next session. We will determine which person or persons in your life can help support you through these actions. We will plan small steps that are attainable, so that you can be successful with implementing permanent changes in your life -- changes that will help you and/or your horse achieve the well-being and balance that you desire. 

     I have several standard coaching packages available, or we can design a custom package together that fits best with you and your lifestyle.
