Coaching Model: Journey to Find Your Authentic Self

A Coaching Model Created by Donna Robinson
(Relationship & Life Coach, UNITED STATES)

This coaching model is designed to take the client on a journey to discover their authentic self. It is easy to become enmeshed with others and have them impose their values and beliefs on us before we realize it we are living someone else’s dream.

We may find it difficult to speak our truth or express our wants and needs without feeling guilt and shame. We can feel overly responsible for other people’s feelings. We can neglect ourselves by not setting boundaries. We may set unrealistic goals for ourselves in order to please others. We lose ourselves in relationships. Our lives become unbalanced.

I invite you to get on board, unload your excess baggage and together we will Explore and Assess your needs, your values and underlying beliefs. We will examine any Automatic Underlying Commitments that may be preventing you from being who you want to be. In the discovery process we will focus on your assets not your liabilities. We will examine your past achievements and successes. As your coach I will be your accountability partner and together we will experience the journey of a lifetime.

Questions to think about where I am right now:

1. Are my values and beliefs aligned with who I say I am? What are they? Are my beliefs empowering me or dis-empowering me?
2. Are there new behaviors that I would like to practice that can be helpful in becoming more authentic? What are those behaviors?
3. What am I committed to? Is that actually showing up in my life?
