be, do
In our culture, we are sort of taught that we need to "do" all this, so we can "have" all that, and then we will "be" something... be happy, be safe, be secure, be enough.
In coaching, we can look at what you want to create -- your goals as a leader, a player, in life.
Then we turn the old "Do, Have, Be" on it's head.
Be, Do, Have is really how things work ideally anyway. We are not taught much about how we "be" and how important is.
Who are you being already? Who do you want to be? Now. This will inform and power how and what you Do. The having will sort of take care of itself. One can have an end in mind, of course. It is our character—who we "be"—that fuels and drives the process. The process—how and what we "do"—then determines and leads into outcomes—the "haves"—all along the way.
Seek the wisdom that will untie your knot.
Seek the path that demands your whole being.

Coaching helps you figure out this sort of "whole being". From this, comes authenticity, clarity and thus ease and flow in "doing." With intentional attention, individuals and teams can free themselves from being in their own way, and ease their stress and overwhelm, so they can feel and be at their best in their whole lives. Coaching is a tool to help effectively and efficiently learn, grow and progress on what you want, from being and evolving who you "be."
Ultimately, this focus from the inside out helps you evolve, return to your authentic self, transform to be a more conscious leader, parent, friend, partner and human in the world.
When is the best time to plant a tree? 20 years ago. When is the next best time? Ready or not, now is a great time to resource yourself with coaching.

All my career, people have said I am driven to make a difference. I feel pulled rather than driven. Pulled by what I see happening in people's own brilliance, creativity and compassion; pulled by being their impacts and the delight and honour of being even a small part of that.
Coaching is my Feels-Like-A-Saturday-Here. In terms of my work, it is what I cannot not do. When I wake up to a day of coaching, it Feels Like a Saturday here and now. My purpose is to help others create more Feels-Like-A-Saturday in their life, work and home, and even in teams!
I'm Coach Toni, an experienced Certified Executive Coach (CEC) and ICF Professionally Certified Coach (PCC). In my corporate life, I lead (and managed up) with what I subsequently learned was an informal coach approach. I became officially accredited as a coach through grad studies at Royal Roads University and continue my studies, particularly in neuroscience, somatic transformation and mental fitness. This is my calling. It feels like what my life has been preparing me for, even my childhood!
I’ve worked with executives and leaders and individuals in every context to help deepen their self-awareness and confidence, strengthen relationships and performance, and to create calmer wellbeing that extends within and out to others.
The result? Immediate and observable improvements in their work, relationships, and life.
I've had the honour of working with great people worldwide, partnering with them to help them expand, move forward, and achieve remarkable things.
