Coaching - Octane for the Brain

Your Life… Your Story…

Every day inside your head, you write the unique scripts for your own biography. Some of the chapters in your life’s story are funny, some are on-the- edge-of- your-seat risky and adventure-filled, and some of the chapters are filled with dark, stormy nights, fear and sadness. But they are YOUR stories, and they shaped who you are today.

Somewhere around mid-life, most everyone starts to wonder if their story ending will be happy…or if it will have a sad ending. The great thing about being the leading character in your story is that you are the author. You get to decide what to write. What action do you want to include in the remainder of your story? What elements do you wish to remove or change?

Many people wait too late to think about those two questions. Physicians and caregivers in hospital and hospice environments often hear people express end-of-life-story regrets. These five wishes are among the most common regrets they hear as ordinary people think of the final pages of their story.

I wish I had taken more risks. I feared failure, so I played life too safe.
I wish I had been happier and enjoyed life more. I worried too much about things I could not control.
I wish I had taken better care of myself. Self-care and disease prevention were a low priority.
I wish I had lived my own dream. I spent my life living up to others’ expectations.
I wish I had chosen work that was meaningful for me. I never felt passion or fulfillment at work.

Make Your Life a Masterpiece

As a corporate executive, I realized I needed help with the fear, panic, and anxiety I was living in due to some personal traumatic changes in my life.

DA, Former Retiree, Newly Hired Director of Volunteers for a Non-Profit Agency
Jeanie coached me when I left the corporate world and started my new training and consulting business. She helped me overcome my fear of the unknown, my inner critics of "not good enough," and she championed me through every small success. With her support, I became "fearless.." That is the word she used to describe my new found courage. I took on new challenges one after another. Jeanie's coaching has unleashed a whole new potential for me.
M.Y., Tech Industry Consultant
I'm a clinical director whose workdays are long and intense. My tasks and high-level responsibilities made me feel like some stressed-out hamster running on a wheel. Jeanie helped me focus on core energy dynamic methods that really improved things for me. I was able to see how my thoughts and fears blocked my energy. I learned techniques for awareness, acknowledgement and action. This has not only improved my energy, it has improved my ability to get along better and to use coaching methods to enhance performance in staff who work in my department. Thank you, Jeanie. I would recommend you as a coach without reservation.
SA, Healthcare Clinical Director
After the death of my spouse, I not only lost joy, I down-spiraled in every way possible. I was lonely, and I was angry! My performance and that of my staff members suffered. Jeanie started coaching me during this vulnerable time. She helped me focus on the core issues that resulted from the traumatic events in my life. Jeanie was very wise and intuitive throughout our year of coaching. She helped me understand my reactions and the positives of my life as well. She became a gentle inspiration when we met in person, and her mental and spiritual guidance stayed with me. I'm happy to report that over time, I gained a new meaning in life, regained joy, and I am helping others who have gone through hard times. Thank you, Jeanie, for bringing me back from the brink.
