Breitmaier Voice Introduction |
What is a Life Coach?
When I was first introduced to coaching, I had not heard of it and did not know how it would be of value in my life. It had such a profound effect on me that it is now my career choice.
Through coaching I moved from living a day-to-day existence to living with joy, serenity, and purpose in my life every day. I now live consistently with my values. I learned how to be me. I learned to allow the real me to show up in all areas of my life. I learned not only how to design my life but also how to keep designing, refining and executing my life plan. I learned to be a leader in my own life as opposed to being led by others. I now continually move into new directions as they come into focus for me.
It is this learning that I bring to my clients. As a client I keep you focussed on your desired outcomes. I act as your memory as well as your mirror. I do not judge, waver, minimize or criticize where you are with respect to your progress.
I help you identify self-defeating behaviours, limiting
thoughts and beliefs or outdated thoughts and beliefs. You will begin to look
at your situation with new eyes and a different perspective that you have
chosen on your own. You will become clear and focussed. I help you to reconnect
to your inner power and your inner knowing. I help you to identify your core
values and help you gain the confidence and courage to honour them in your
life. You will move forward in ways that you never thought possible.
As my client, you will learn to grow, love yourself, and
honour your values in your everyday life. You will learn what is possible for
yourself.
I provide a safe and confidential environment for your
coaching experience. I allow you the gift of developing your full self and your
true potential.
Each coaching relationship is unique and is designed by us
together to suit your specific needs, wants, desires and goals. Coaching can
take many shapes including personal coaching, relationship coaching, business
coaching and career coaching.
Coaching versus Counselling?
I am often asked, what the difference is between coaching and counselling or therapy.
A counsellor/therapist works with clients with entrenched problems. A therapist is more likely to view clients from a medical model where she diagnoses problems and sickness and recommends treatments. A therapist is trained to work with major mental illness. The emphasis is on the past and the present.
A coach works with clients to create an alliance and have common goals. A coach views the client as being naturally creative resourceful and whole. This means that the client is not broken and does not need fixing. A coach believes that the client has all of the answers and asks powerful questions and uses coaching techniques to bring the answers to the surface. The emphasis is on the present and the future. Coaching is about moving forward toward your future and living fully by being all that you can and desire to be. It is about manifesting your true potential.
How does coaching work?
Coaching sessions are typically scheduled four times per month for 30 minutes or three times per month for 40 minutes. To begin, I suggest a three-month commitment. It is important to the coaching relationship to commit for a minimum of three months to allow time for yourself to shape, grow and develop. Coaching appointments are conducted by telephone so geography is not an issue. Other arrangements are possible so don’t be afraid to ask.
Are You Coachable?
If you are courageous and committed to personal and emotional growth and development, if you have the ability to stay connected when the going gets tough, if you are hungry for change, and if you are willing to do what it takes to move forward in your life, try coaching. Growth can be difficult at times. Be prepared to be challenged. You will be taken out of your comfort zone. You will receive gifts that will change your life.

Personal and Background Information
As a secondary school teacher, I taught business, math and
entrepreneurship. I led students through all steps of the business planning
process including developing the original idea into a business idea, location
analysis, marketing strategies, accounting, and financial planning. I enjoy combining business planning with
personal planning. This includes striking the appropriate balance for your
specific needs.
I received first place in the 2006 Hamilton Small Business
Enterprise Centre’s Business Plan Competition for dedication and commitment in
promoting entrepreneurship though Business Planning.
Previously, I held various positions in business in both
government and private industry. I provided consultation and guidance to the
public. I worked with individuals from all walks of life including Business
Professionals, Executives, Small Business Owners and Entrepreneurs to assist
them with their inquiries, issues, and complaints. I worked with compassion, integrity, and authenticity while still
functioning within the guidelines of organizational requirements.

Testimonials
Janet, most of all I like in your coaching that you really
hold me as naturally creative, resourceful and whole. In this tough period
(career change from engineering to coaching), your coaching was like an oasis
to recharge my batteries. Your acknowledgement, support, confidence, and
warm-inviting voice along with the coaching methods used helped me to progress
in the direction I wanted. The accountability for my actions brought me further
in the coaching zone! Thank you! Gabriela Casineau, Life Coach
Janet is a superb life coach. She has helped me clarify my goals and identify self-defeating behaviours. Together we have worked on a plan of action, and by using her techniques, my business has grown.
Allyson Wenzowski, Publicity Works
Janet, coaching helped me see life’s situations with “new eyes”. Through coaching I found ways to honour needs and values with courage and willingness. Life is a little simpler. Thanks!
