Coaching
My coaching practice is limited to a small number of motivated women who...
- want to nurture and explore their creative potential
- have a hunch that creativity might be the missing piece in what is an otherwise rich and full life
- are ready to invite more creativity into their lives.
"Creativity is a central source of meaning in our lives...most of the things that are interesting, important, and human are the results of creativity...when we are involved in it, we feel that we are living more fully than during the rest of life." Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
Coaching offers a unique relationship and process in which you can discover and support your creative potential and expression. This could be anything from simply living your life more creatively, to expressing your creativity in a particular way. Or, maybe you're stuck and need some help to complete a creative project you've begun. My job as your coach is to hold your intention and keep the focus on your goals.
Maggie creates the ideal personal (and totally safe) place to explore your inner self. She guides and probes very gently, but effectively, when necessary. If you are serious about changing you will succeed with Maggie's help. Bernie McE.
Together we'll co-create a plan that will help you show up authentically and uniquely in this world - and that's a win-win situation for all involved! You experience a sense of fulfillment as you find a way of creating meaning of/with your life experience, and the world is graced with something only you can bring into it.
As we go along, we'll also look at what gets in the way of your creative expression and develop strategies, designed specifically for you and where you are. These strategies can empower you to move beyond those blocks and grow more deeply into your creative potential.
There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and there is only one of you in all time. This expression is unique, and if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and be lost. The world will not have it. Martha Graham, dancer & choreographer
I see creativity as an energy that needs expression. For many women creativity is closely linked with spirituality. I think this is so for several reasons:
- Creative expression is a connection to something greater than ourselves as well as to a deeper or higher part of ourselves
- Expressing our creativity - or expressing ourselves creatively - means being more of who we are and showing up more authentically
- In whatever form it takes, our creative expression makes a unique contribution to the world.
Maggie is an amazing facilitator. Her warm and gentle manner helped to create a safe and friendly environment. This enabled me to feel comfortable and free to express who I am and who I aspire to be. Thank you Maggie! Judith G.
If you'd like to talk about how coaching can bring more creativity into your life, you can use the form at Contact Me. I'll be in touch shortly and we can arrange a mutually convenient time to set up an informational call during which
- you can ask any questions you have
- you'll clarify whether coaching is right for you right now
- Decide if I'm a good match for the important work you're ready to do.
This call usually lasts 20 - 30 minutes and there is absolutely no charge.
Coaching is done by telephone. We agree on a time when you will call me for your coaching session. Your costs are your coaching fees plus any of the usual long distances telephone charges you might incur. Phone cards and skype allow for very inexpensive international calls.
Maggie gave me the courage and impetus to move forward toward my goal - which I now truly believe is achievable. With her imagination and creative guidance, I am taking steps every day toward that goal, empowered in my belief that what lay dormant inside me for so long will blossom into my heartfelt wish. I am, at last, coming into my own. Thank you, Maggie! - Rae McA.
