Feeling nervous about Peer Accountability Partners is completely normal. Here's what you can expect: Selection Process: In Week 3, I'll guide you through a selection process to help match you with a partner(s) who aligns with your goals and preferences. This process is designed to ensure compatibility and support. Supportive Pairing: Your partner is there to offer support, encouragement, and accountability. But also to help you celebrate milestones too (which too many of us forget to do) It's a two-way street, so you'll also play a crucial role in supporting your partner's journey. Structured Check-Ins: You'll have regular check-in sessions with your partner to discuss progress, challenges, and goals. These sessions are structured and guided to ensure they are productive and beneficial. Enhanced Accountability: Having an accountability partner can boost your commitment and motivation, as you'll both be working towards your goals together. Flexibility: While the partnership provides structure, it's flexible enough to adapt to your unique needs and schedules. Remember, the purpose of Peer Accountability Partners is to enhance your overall experience and progress toward your goals. Overcoming initial nervousness often leads to a valuable and supportive relationship that benefits both you and your partner on your journey. I have also found that these accountability groups stay active and last long after our group ajourns (again there is not pressure to do so).

This is where you can bring a loved one as a guest to WEEK 3's virtual Coaching Session. We will include them in the weekly email with access to join that week's session from whereever they are in the world. They will be a part of our group that week, where they can learn more about your goals and be a part of your support plan. This is on top of your Accountability Partner from the group. It is so much better when done together.

Yup! Courage to Change: The Mindful Goal Setting Journal is the focal point of your kit and also a tool used during our time together. So you will learn how to best utilize this journal for your own goals and also have first hand access to me. So you can ask any question about your journaling experience as you go.

WARNING: Be prepared for an increase in enrergy as you start to see change taking place. This will usher in a fresh sense of confidence, less worry and stress. Have you standing a little taller and finding your voice in situations you once shied away from. . . dreaming bigger.

Your homework between sessions is entirely customized to your needs and capabilities. In Week 1, we'll craft a personalized plan that aligns with your specific goals. Your daily journal entry in the Courage to Change Journal (included in your kit) will only take about 5 minutes each day, helping you gauge your daily capacity and break down your homework into manageable steps. It's not about doing it all at once – everyone's schedule and circumstances are unique. The goal of your homework is to consistently and effectively progress towards your goals. Additionally, it's perfectly normal for your homework plans to evolve between sessions. Embrace the unplanned and let these changes guide you to where you need to be each week for meaningful progress toward your goals.

You'll begin to notice changes happening in the very first week, in small ways. These changes will become increasingly recognizable with each passing week, gradually becoming more noticeable as time goes on.

This is also sprinkled throughout your Courage to Change Journal (included in your kit) to help you work through these too even when we are not together as a group. Your homework also comes in handy here as it is done during your evryday life where this all happens. Remember mastery comes with practise. It will not always be perect, especially in the beginning. What is important is that you keep applying and adapting your learnings as you go.

My groups coaching sessions typically consist of between 6 to 12 people.

In short the answer is no but please read to the end. This is a group emersive experience which means that not only you but the group will benefit most when all participants are present on camera and learn one another's name. It is incredible the amount of trust gained within the the first couple of sessions. It is also not uncommon for many to develop relationships that last long after our time together (but there is no pressure nor expectation to do so). This adds to creating personal experience and braving volunability, bring many benefits towards you and your goals. It is also important to note here that all participants will be reminded in WEEK 1 that what is discussed during our sessions is confidential.

Supportive Community: You'll be part of a community of individuals who share similar goals and aspirations. This network can provide encouragement, understanding, and motivation. Along with accountability and celebration. Diverse Perspectives: Group sessions bring together people with different experiences and viewpoints. This diversity can offer fresh insights and solutions to challenges you might face. Accountability: Knowing that you're part of a group can enhance your commitment and accountability to the program, making it more likely that you'll stick to your goals. Shared Learning: You'll have the opportunity to learn from others' experiences, successes, and setbacks, which can accelerate your personal growth. Empowerment: Overcoming nervousness in a group setting can boost your confidence and help you confront other challenges in your life. Structured Support: This group is guided by me. Which I am very experienced in facilitating and providing guidance, structure, and valuable resources in a group session. Remember, it's natural to feel nervous at first, but many participants find that these group dynamics enhance their overall experience and contribute significantly to their progress.

The common thread for the entire group is that everyone is focusing on creating change within their lives. The accountibilty partner(s) which are issued in WEEK 3 can support more specific commonalities.

Yes, it can be highly beneficial to listen to others' issues in group sessions. Feeling that you're not alone in your struggles can provide several advantages: Empathy and Support: Hearing about others' challenges can foster empathy and a sense of support within the group. This shared understanding can be comforting and encouraging. Validation: Listening to similar issues can validate your own experiences and feelings. It can help you realize that your struggles are normal and shared by others. Perspective: Hearing how others approach and overcome their challenges can provide valuable perspectives and potential solutions to your own issues. Inspiration: Witnessing others' growth and progress can be inspiring and motivate you to keep working toward your goals. Reduced Isolation: Feeling connected to a community can combat feelings of isolation and loneliness, which are common when facing personal challenges. While it's essential to maintain a balance between listening and sharing, engaging with others' experiences can be a valuable part of your personal growth journey within a group setting.

In private sessions (1:1), the focus is solely on you, allowing for highly personalized guidance and immediate attention to your unique challenges and goals. This individualized attention can lead to faster progress in some cases. On the other hand, group sessions provide a supportive community and the opportunity to learn from others' experiences. While progress may be slightly slower due to the group dynamic, many participants find that the collective wisdom, shared insights, and accountability in group settings ultimately contributes to significant and sustainable growth. Ultimately, the choice between 1:1 and group sessions should be based on your specific needs, comfort level, and goals. Both options can be effective; it's a matter of what aligns best with your preferences and objectives.

Is there a cost difference between 1:1 vs. group sessions? Absolutely! By opting for group coaching, you'll be saving over 75% compared to private coaching sessions. On average, a 50-minute private coaching session typically ranges from $170 to $190 per session with me. Group coaching offers you an affordable and effective way to access valuable support and guidance on your journey.

Your private session is available to you from the start of your program until 30 days after the close of our group's 6 weeks together.
