What I do | Erin Donley Coaching

What is Life Coaching?

Life coaching is a means to your goals. It is one of many ways that high-functioning people can take the next steps in moving from "good" to "great". Much in the same way a sports coach can help you up-level your game, a life coach can help you up-level your life.

How?

Through weekly virtual 1:1 sessions, you and I will identify where you are now and what you want to move toward. Together we’ll identify your thoughts, belief systems, what is most meaningful to you, and what is standing between you and a more meaningful relationship with your children. (Spoiler alert: it's your brain and a whole lot of cultural conditioning.) We will focus on your future and you’ll learn how to believe new things about yourself and you kids rather than rehash the stories of your past.

Space

Change can feel incredibly vulnerable and scary to our human brains. I provide space to explore new thoughts, feel the feelings, and imagine what the next version of yourself could be.

Unconditional Belief

I'm here to help you give yourself permission to love and be yourself. Give me your vision of your future self, and I promise to believe whole-heartedly in that vision until you're ready to.

Accountability

As you set your goals, I'll help you investigate what’s working and what’s not along the way and ever-so-lovingly call you on your bullshit when your brain decides it would rather just be comfortable and stagnant than grow and evolve

...and your brain will absolutely do that, I promise you.

I will provide you with...

What Coaching Is NOT

Therapy

While coaching can be a helpful adjunct to the work you do with a licensed counselor, therapist, or psychologist, it is in NO WAY a substitute for these therapies. While I am a physician, I am not your physician, nor am I a licensed therapist. The information I present and conversations we share are emphatically not medical advice and should not be construed as such. Please review our disclaimer

Advice

I’m not here to tell what you should do or what’s best for you. There is no way I could ever know that even if I wanted to. As your coach, the only advice I will ever offer you is to ask yourself for the advice you are seeking.

I promise you, you already know your own answers.

Toxic Positivity

This work is not about choosing happy thoughts so you can feel better. (Though we may do that at times.) It's about choosing thoughts and emotions on purpose in a way that aligns with your Highest Self. Coaching is meeting you and your brain exactly where you are and growing from there.
