Working Well Sessions for Individuals

The rapidly changing landscape of work can take it’s toll on you. Layoffs. Contracting. Freelancing. Old industries collapsing. New industries arising. Economic rollercoaster ups and downs. Angry bosses. Crazy co-workers. Demanding customers. Intense workloads. Unrealistic deadlines.

Stressful, eh?

When work feels like total insanity, how do you keep your cool and find your direction?

You’ve got a fantastic compass. But you’re likely to have lost touch with it. And you need it more than ever to navigate the massive uncertainty that’s got you feeling intensely stressed out about work. I’m here to help you find the calm, clarity, connection and confidence you’ve been craving, so you can do the work that matters most to you.

The big problem, as I see it, is that your head has become disconnected from the rest of you. You’ get stuck in your spinning, overtaxed mind. Try as you might, when you’re stressed, your brain doesn’t work well. The remedy I propose is a healthy dose of connecting mind and body, so that you can get back in touch with what really matters to you.

When your mind and body are connected, working in unison, everything sings. You think more clearly. You fill up with the kind of energy you’re eager to express. You’re working well.

Find your way…

I’m here to help you bring out the best of you in the work that you do. Together, we help you move out of chaos and uncertainty and into the calm, clarity, confidence, and connection you need to feel powerful and passionate about your work.

You’re wishing for….

But you’re feeling….

Coaching gives you …

Calm
  • Stressed and anxious, constantly worrying about the future
  • Beating yourself up about mistakes and omissions, feeling unsettled
  • Greater ease about the future, feeling relaxed and optimistic
  • At peace with the past, so that you have more energy and excitement for the future
Clarity
  • Spinning mind, lost in confusion with all the options
  • Drawing a blank, hard to think, tensed up and stressed out trying to figure it out
  • A clear choice about what feels best to you, and a sense of the option fitting you
  • New opportunities that allow you to feel more tranquil and relaxed
Confidence
  • Doubtful about your own abilities to achieve what you desire
  • Fearful about the future and imagining more negative outcomes than positive ones
  • Self-assured, able to stand up for yourself and speak up for what matters to you
  • More optimistic, able to adopt a balanced outlook about the future; radiating authentic confidence
Connection
  • Struggling to feel connected to others; feeling left out or ignored
  • Disconnected from yourself, unsure of your desires and preferences
  • Able to connect in meaningful ways to help people; able to build bridges, even to difficult people
  • Strongly connected to yourself, aware of what you want and able to pursue it

Let’s get you moving in the right direction. Here’s what you get when we work together:

  • 6 hour-long sessions, 2 sessions a month over three months. This gives us time to make lasting change. You choose the work issues you’re hungry to address. We focus on building the calm, clarity, confidence, and connection that will transform work into positive force you’ve always wanted to be, so you feel empowered in your work.
  • Recordings of all sessions, so you can review what you’ve learned any time you want. We can meet by phone or by Skype.
  • Light email support between sessions, in case you need a boost.

You invest $1500 for the package, and I immediately send you a link to my online calendar so you can schedule your first session (I’m available Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays 9-5 pm Pacific, and Fridays 9-3 pm Pacific). You also receive a New Client Orientation document, which tells you how to get the most out of our time together and answers all your logistical questions. 

(Please note:  The Working Well package is for private-paying individual clients. Corporate and organizational clients, click here for my professional bio and please get in touch for specific coaching rates and packages.)

MarciaRayeneResized“Susan has used her unique expertise to help me listen more carefully to my body’s wisdom from previous work challenges to illuminate what in the future will bring me the greatest fulfillment. I’m someone who already has the capacity and commitment to tune into myself. So I was shocked and gratified to work with someone who can excavate even deeper gems of my experience.

Her ability to help me flip assumptions and beliefs into new ways of thinking is extraordinary. Listening carefully to the underlying themes as well as the specific content, she has led me to see new possibilities and develop more trust in myself. Susan turns on a dime to follow what the client needs in any given moment, keeping the macro work/life satisfaction goals in mind. Working with her is like a creative, dynamic dance together, bringing forth from each of us our best energies and power to reimagine.”
~ Marcia Rayene

PeterKlugsbergerResized“I contacted Susan to gain some long needed clarity on my career objectives and, initially, was fairly skeptical of signing up for that kind of a program. Let’s face it, there are many people out there claiming to provide you with life-changing solutions without having the knowledge, passion and Emotional Intelligence to really understand one’s situation. Susan is definitely an exception to the rule and I was most impressed with her insights and very unique talent of eliciting, through her very focused approach, the real drivers and motivators that make you ‘tick’ – and doing so in a laid-back fashion. I can recommend her highly for anybody in their quest to a fulfilled and meaningful life.” ~ Peter Klugsberger

SarahNelsResized“I am still referring to the notes I took during my calls with Susan. After every call with Susan, I felt as though I had taken a huge step forward in understanding myself, the foundation of my work ethic, and the patterns of behavior that have been keeping me from truly succeeding in my career. I can’t speak more highly of Susan for guiding me to realizations I wouldn’t have reached without her support. When I pushed back against techniques I didn’t feel were working for me, she quickly changed gears and found the right approach. Susan is warm, personable, and her energy is contagious. I think hiring Susan should be an integral part of every person’s career (or change of careers).” ~ Sarah Nels

JoeKornowskiResized“In the wake of a profound personal loss, Susan helped me gain greater clarity from “within” to assist me with my career. Her recommended exercises, insights and resources were highly valuable in providing greater awareness and understanding of how to improve my Return On Life Energy going forward, for which I am very grateful.” ~ Joe Kornowski

ColleenMcCarthyResized“I came to Susan after spending a long time trying to get out of a job that was making me unhappy. I greatly appreciated Susan’s process, which helped me pinpoint exactly what I want out of my job (and somewhat my life too). She was supportive yet challenging when I needed to be challenged. Because of our work, I was able to find a job that I’m loving now and be really clear on what I needed to work on in this job to make it work for me.”
~ Colleen McCarthy

KsenyaRubinResized“I hired Susan at a time when I was doing a lot of soul searching about my future and much needed clarity about the path I wanted to take. I was looking to get out of the analysis-paralysis and tap into possibilities that were about what I’d like to do, rather than what I should do.

I found Susan’s approach to be creative, unconventional, thought-provoking, and challenging. One of things I most I appreciated while working with Susan was her ability to hold firm and not tell me what I wanted to hear. I found lots of surprises along the way; possibilities that I thought would be great for me, turned out to be really stressful when I actually imagined myself taking them on. Susan helped me identify an authentic, responsive, liberating path towards my future work. I came to Susan looking for clarity and I have it (as well as a few handy tools to help me work through similar questions in the future).

Susan’s experience and skill set, combined with intuition and talent, enable her to offer coaching that is truly unique and effective.” ~ Ksenya Ruban
