As The Uncommon Success Coach, I work with people who want to live lives where success is defined by their values, vision, passion and purpose. They tend to be in their 40s and 50s. Many have achieved a level of “traditional success” (money, power and prestige) but are struggling with out-of-balance lives that leave them exhausted, unfulfilled, and sometimes even suffering physically.
My most successful clients KNOW that there’s more to life than what they currently have. They want CHANGE, and they realize that creating lasting change requires focused effort, a solid plan and expert support.
I help them identify what they want, then support them through the change process.
Can you relate to any of these scenarios?
Joe is a 43-year-old self-employed marketing consultant who is married with no children. He’s feeling pretty stressed because he’s working 60-70 hours a week, including evenings and weekends. He’s at the beck and call of his clients and on two Boards of non-profit organizations. Joe is so well networked that everyone he meets wants to spend more time |

with him, which means that he never gets to the gym, and rarely spends time with his wife. He feels anxious a lot of the time and has had a couple of panic attacks recently. Joe doesn’t know how to break the vicious cycle he is caught up in.
Anne is a 53-year-old corporate lawyer. She works at a large law firm and has been very successful financially. When she started out as an attorney, she loved her work. But today, she feels more exhausted than anything else, and she doesn’t get much satisfaction from helping her corporate clients. She is good with people and thinks she might enjoy work where she helps people with their lives directly. However, she doesn’t have any idea what that work would look like or how to go about finding out.
Joel is 48-years-old and has been the office manager at a large construction company for the last five years. He pretty much hates his job, but he feels stuck. He doesn’t know if he wants to stay in the same line of work and find a situation that feels more compatible, or to find a new, more satisfying career. This is his third career and fifth job in 15 years, and he’s not feeling very optimistic about the future being any better than the past.
Dick is a 30-year-old Web designer for a chain of hotels. He’s married with two young children. He loves what he does, but the job stress is really getting to him as he works late most days and often on weekends. His youngest child is in bed by the time he gets home, and he doesn’t have much energy left for either his other child or his wife. Dick is also a little overweight from too much fast food and not enough exercise.
The primary issues I help clients resolve are:
1. Creating a healthy balance between work and life.
Whether you are running your own businesses or working as an employee, you are likely spending too much time working. You know there has got to more to life than work, but can’t seem to make the change on your own. Often you feel that you have forgotten how to play and have fun.
I help you figure out how to work fewer hours while maintaining your business success and gaining more time for yourself and your family.
2. Finding work that’s more meaningful
You feel the emptiness of being stuck in a job that you don't really like. Or, you have a successful but unfulfilling career. You’re ready to move into something new but don’t know what that is. You want a role where you can contribute more, feel more valued and satisfied.
I work with you to discover what kind of fulfilling work you really ARE passionate about, and then help you bring that into your life.
You can create an uncommonly successful life if you:
- Are fully committed to making changes in your life.
- Are willing to do whatever it takes.
- Are open to new perspectives and points of view.
- Are willing to look at old beliefs and patterns of behavior that no longer serve you and replace them with ones that do.
- Don’t take life too seriously and love to laugh.
- Are open to learning and trying out new things.
- Know you deserve to have and to be the best.
- Want to play a bigger game in life.
- Are creative and able to generate options for trying out new ways of doing things.
- Want a life that is meaningful, satisfying, and has a sense of purpose.
- Want to make a difference - or to make your world a better place.
