How is Paradigm coaching different from traditional executive or life coaching?

Traditional coaching often focuses on setting goals and developing strategies to achieve them. While results are certainly part of our work together, Paradigm coaching centers on transformation at the level of perspective. Rather than simply helping you get better at what you're already doing, we help you see in ways that reveal entirely new possibilities. Our coaches don't position themselves as experts with answers, but as guides who help you discover more powerful questions.

What types of challenges or situations are best addressed through coaching?

Our coaching approach is particularly powerful for situations where you feel stuck despite trying various solutions, sense that something fundamental needs to shift, or find yourself repeating patterns despite your best efforts to change them. Common areas include leadership challenges, significant transitions, purpose alignment, and relationship dynamics. The common thread is that these situations benefit from perspective transformation rather than just strategy adjustment.

How do I know if I'm ready for this type of coaching?

Readiness for perspective transformation often shows up as a willingness to question your current assumptions, openness to seeing situations differently, and commitment to your own growth even when uncomfortable. You don't need to know exactly what needs to shift—just that something does. During your Vision Session, we'll explore together whether the timing is right for this work.

What happens in a typical coaching session?

While each relationship is unique, sessions generally involve powerful questioning, reflective dialogue, and perspective exploration. Unlike training or consulting, we don't come with predetermined content. Instead, we create a space where your current paradigms can become visible and new perspectives can emerge. Your coach will guide the process while remaining responsive to what's most alive and important in each session.

How will I measure the impact of coaching?

Transformation often happens in ways that standard metrics don't capture. While many clients experience tangible results like business growth or career advancement, the most significant impacts are often in how they see themselves and their world. We'll establish meaningful ways to track your shift in perspective, decision-making approach, relationship quality, and sense of possibility. Many clients report that others notice changes in them before they fully recognize the transformation themselves.
