Online Life Coaching with Jeff Courtney

My favorite part of online coaching is working with people who feel stuck or torn and are seeking clarity. This state of being typically comes from thoughts that contradict each other and we, as the person, get confused as to what to do! Some of these thoughts do not align towards the person’s goals and so the life result is not obtained. This is what I consider self-sabotage. That’s why I focus on inner alignment and understanding our inner voice during my life coaching sessions.

We are psychologically programmed early in life from about age 0 to 7 and this programming, or your subconscious, has a strong influence in our thoughts, actions and behaviors and it manifests constantly in our daily lives. Most people do not realize this. During coaching, I help people discover if their actions are from the past and if they are serving in a positive way. If not, we identify new possibly behaviors and get new results.

 

I coach on what you need to do in life so you are no longer torn between your subconscious programming and what you really want to do.  My online coaching focuses on aspects of why you can never break this cycle on your own.  Using “Inner Dynamics” or “Parts Coaching” philosophy, you will learn how to identify and “see” these different aspects of yourself. Once this happens, you can more easily become the main driver in your life.

 

During the first few online Life Coaching sessions, we break out each of those different “Parts” and once these are clear for everybody, we take the higher seat in the psyche and manage them. That’s when you will gain real power over what you want to do in life! When clients experience this and realize the potential for change, that is the most rewarding part of being a Life Coach!

How My online Life Coach Sessions Work For You

I’ll help you realize during your online Life Coaching sessions that a historic part of yourself may be hijacked your mind but that you can compartmentalize it. Once you understand and learn how to enlist your “higher self” or “core self”, then you become able to realize that now you’re the decision-maker in your own life. This is an incredibly powerful place to begin making change.

 

Many clients even have an “inner child” that is vulnerable inside of us. It is a younger version of themself from back in the day and this part of you didn’t get all their needs met.  This part has been living deep inside, creating feelings of fear, sadness or the suggestion that something’s “not right” about your life. 

 

Clients sometimes have a mental image of this inner child and the Life Coaching can become very emotional.  With new awareness and tools to know what to do, clients then can begin a new type of relationship with themselves that they have not had before! For many, this is a very transformative event that they carry with themselves for the rest of their lives. From there, all kinds of new and exciting things can happen.  Life becomes a different ball game.

 

How Coaching Can Help Your Career

What I do is not the same as “traditional” career coaching. However, a third of my clients come to me seeking help with coaching about their career decisions or because they have a problem with their jobs.  They often feel stuck or unfulfilled in their job and don’t know what their next step could be. After coaching, some of those clients realize that they’re sabotaging themselves at work and are not being their best self, thereby making things miserable.  With my guidance, I help them identify what is truly holding them back and these clients end up working on themselves and find enjoyment in their current role or they realize they need a change and now have the confidence to find a new job. Either way, they client wins and they have a new next step in their career.

Coaching Can Help WIth Focusing on Goals

For many clients, it’s rarely ever just one issue that is causing them pain. They just feel like everything’s a mess and they need clarity.  To me, this situation in Life Coaching is the Wild West and is very exciting because there are so many ways to take the Life Coaching. I never know which way the client will pick based on their life goals. But in general, we first identify the most pressing thing that could be improved on and we do a deep dive on that! We improve that specific thing and clients feel better right away. Then, once that is out of the way, we use the personal momentum and move to the next piece with the ultimate goal to unravel the mess and ultimately give clarity and inner alignment to the client.  

Maybe it’s your finances, or your relationship, or maybe you simply don’t feel right about something, or you don’t have any confidence, or maybe its your boss…or whatever! When you start working with me, you start taking back control of your life and that is when things get exciting!
