“Dr. Heather Anne Harder is a pioneer of the future. Her dealings of subjects previously shunned, offer hope and assistance to those grappling with tough issues. Dr. Harder continues to brighten pathways of all with her insights.” “You have so much knowledge about everything! I am always thinking about your ideas. You surely have a way of making me think.” “Heather deeply affirms our exploratory steps on the spiritual path with her keen perception of the challenge of living an examined life. With a care taking heart she inspires us all to mine the well of inner wisdom and honor our place in the circle of humanity.” How is coaching different than therapy? Why get coaching? Heather could have given her a pair of skates, put her on a patch of ice, and told her to practice until she was good. Perhaps she would have gained some skill that way, but she wouldn’t have gone as far or as fast as she did. Her coaches were able to focus in on exactly what worked and didn’t work for her. They gave her activities to build specific muscles and enhance particular skills. It wasn’t easy for her. On many days, after 5-8 hours on the ice, her feet would be in blisters (even though she was wearing custom fitted $800 skates) and she would be bone tired. She stayed at it, because she was determined to be her best. And so it is with you. If you want to be your best, finding the coach who can help you tweak your skills, push you in ways, you didn’t know were possible will greatly speed your process and enhance your development. You must be willing to be held accountable, accept new ideas and approaches, change behaviors, and get to know yourself in new and different ways. Coaching allows you to reach your goals and improve your life at an accelerated rate. Coaching allows you to reach higher and achieve more than you ever thought possible. You need a coach who can call you on your stuff, and push you out of your comfort zone. Growth isn’t always easy or fun—but it is always rewarding and worth the effort. What can coaching do for me? You must be willing to be held accountable, accept new ideas and approaches, change behaviors, and get to know yourself in new and different ways. Isn’t easy to face yourself, your issues and your own limitations, but it is the way to make quantum leap. How is coaching different than therapy? Coaching is a professional service that moves you from you are to where you dream of being. It is not about fixing you from the inside. It is about moving your life along--personally, professionally, and/or spiritually. Therapy is often described as the treatment of mental and emotional challenges with the end goal of relieving you of symptoms so you can experience improved social and vocational functioning. Coaching, on the other hand, enables you to focus on your strengths. Coaching is a form of a commitment to forward thinking and forward actions. What to Talk about with Your Coach?
