My purpose is to enlighten and inspire others, with kindness and empathy, so that they are empowered to better themselves and the world.
A life coach is someone to bounce ideas off of, to get inspiration from, to help hold you accountable, and to help plan next steps to improve your life and career. A life coach is a confidant and a support system to help you make plans and achieve all of the goals you have for yourself.
A life coach is not a therapist. The conversation between a life coach and a client is more tactical, more action-oriented. There are absolutely similarities but it is important to understand the differences. A life coach is not trained or prepared to dig into past trauma. Instead, you and your coach will work on identifying your purpose and joys in life, the end goals you have, creating action items to help realize those goals, and helping to hold you accountable along the way.
My name is Christopher and I'm the owner and coach here at Purposeful Presence Life Coaching. I went through my own career reinvention when my career of over 18 years ended after the company I worked for was purchased and effectively closed down. Throughout that process I spent a lot of time identifying what truly motivated and inspired me - helping others! I wasn't the only one impacted by these corporate changes so I took the opportunity to have conversations with my colleagues about the work I had done personally to find and chase my passion while also creating and delivering multiple presentations and working sessions to help them do the same. That's when it was decided that this is what I want to do with my life. Now I'm here to help you reach your goals. Let's start the journey to a better life and career!
