Here’s another TCC Client success story for your reading pleasure.

Kim, a life coach client, came to TCC at the age of 61. She was a partner in a CPA firm and found herself extremely overwhelmed in the day-to-day operations of the firm. I believe her words best describe her coaching experience with TCC:

To Whom It May Concern:

I started working with my TCC Member Coach in July of 2002. At that time I was extremely overwhelmed and barely functional in my business. I seemed unable to focus on my work for an entire eight-hour day, let alone extra hours that my business requires. My TCC Coach started working on the important issues that were preventing me from being productive and functional right away. After the first session I had some relief as she had me create a To Not Do list to reduce the feeling of being of overwhelmed. She was intuitive and realized that I needed to make changes in my personal life that would help increase my energy level and ability to focus before I could tackle the problems in my business.

Over the subsequent months that I have worked with my coach I have found her to be extremely conscientious. From the start I have felt that my problems were as important to her as they are to me and I never had a doubt that she wanted me to succeed and was committed to help me do just that. When I have had phone sessions with her I always feel that she is totally engaged in our session. She remembers me and what we have been working on and I always feel that she is completely tuned in to where I am and where I want to go. She has been of great help in helping me to define and refine my goals.

She seems to have a vast repertoire of materials to help me understand concepts and work through confusing situations. She has recommended books and audiotapes and has sent me numerous exercises to help us further explore the various subjects we are discussing.

She is very intuitive and insightful. She asks what I describe to her as “hard questions”. What that means to me is that she asks questions that I do not have a ready answer for, which I have to think about before answering. I realize that these questions are meant to invoke discovery and insight on my part and sometimes to challenge my assumptions.

My TCC Coach is a wonderful, warm, caring coach and the time I have spent working with her has been invaluable. She understands the many facets of my life, both business and personal. She has a very refreshing perspective on life and a positive, upbeat attitude, which is contagious.

My coach continues to patiently guide me along the path of creating a wonderful life for myself. Since I have been working with her I have grown in the following ways: I am putting a much greater emphasis on spirituality and gratefulness as the basis for life, I have reached out more to people on a personal level and have mended some fences, I have for the first time in my life reached out more to people on a professional level by joining several networking groups where I am creating contacts and friendships, I am taking better care of myself physically and emotionally. Best of all, I am now able to be fully engaged in a full workday almost all of the time. I had been very worried about my business failing but it now looks like I will be able to get it turned around.

I would highly recommend my TCC Coach to anyone needing help along his or her life’s path. Her combination of knowledge, character, commitment, and people skills make her an ideal life coach. And last, but definitely not least, she has a wonderful sense of humor and uses her wit to help bring life into perspective.
