The life you built has changed. Now what?

Something that defined you has ended or changed – a marriage, a job, your health, a house full of kids, or one that no longer is. Most of your life is still there, but you are off balance, and you can't think your way back. Or, something in your life needs to change, and you have not yet found a way to make that happen.

Does this sound like you?

• The kids are grown, and I'm not sure of my purpose now.
• I retired. I thought I'd love it, but I'm a bit adrift.
• The marriage ended, and I don't know who I am without it.
• I lost my job, and my confidence went with it.
• My body changed, and the old me isn't coming back.
• My parents are gone, and suddenly I'm nobody's child.
• On paper everything is fine, so why does something feel missing?

Other reasons people come

• You are having relationship problems – romantic, family, friend, co-worker – and need someone to talk to.
• You have gained a loved one through pregnancy, adoption, marriage, or other change.
• An important relationship is changing, and it is taking you off your center.
• An important relationship is not changing, and that is no longer acceptable.
• Why do I always …, why does my partner …, why doesn't my partner … ? Something has to change for you to navigate it more skillfully.
• You want to understand your own beliefs, values, and actions more clearly.
• You want to replace a habit with something better and can't seem to make it stick.
• You are trying to change something about how you live, and not progressing at a pace you can live with.
• Something about you is not right, or at least not clear, and you need to figure it out.

If your life has changed, or you want it to change and it hasn't, let's talk. Whatever is hurting or getting in the way, I help people find perspective and practical next steps.

Coaching focused on today and tomorrow

The past shapes but does not completely control what we do now. What we do now will prepare the way (or not) for what we want to happen next. Getting more Zen-ish about past, present, and future helps us create a present and a future more in keeping with our truest values and personal goals.

Why Zen-ish Coaching is different

Most coaching stops with a surface objective and hands you someone else's method – do it the way the coach did it, the way the people in the testimonials did it. If we work together, our shared job is to find a way that works for the individual you are: a why that actually moves you – the real goal under the apparent objective – and a method of getting there built on how you function.

Bennett has helped me with both personal and work issues. He has seen me through some pretty ugly times, and has also taught me how to handle things better on my own. I've learned a lot from working with him, and I recommend him to you highly. E.V.

Prefer to start by reading? My book Eat The Strawberries lays out the foundation of this practice, and readers have found it useful on its own.
