The Coaching Panel

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Dear friends and listeners,

Tommorrow is once again a milestone in The Coaching Panel experience, namley the panel itself. The concept of the panel is to bring together the coaches that I have interviewed during the month, to talk and discuss about a specific topic or theme.

In the last month (and the last week of March) I had the pleasure and honour to have five great female coaches on the show with each one their strength and passion in their coaching niche and what they are offering to the world to make it a happier and more successful place.

Tommorrow, April 29th at 20:00UTC - 16:00 EST, I am bringing those five starts back together to the sofa to talk and discuss about a specific topic. This month’s topic is: "Social entrepreneurship & responsibility: what is the added value of coaching and what coaches can do." Social entrepreneurship and responsability is getting more and more in the foreground, and as coach I believe, no I am convinced, that we as coaches have an important role to play in their. In tommorrow’s panel, I will be interexchanging this concept with my guests. Allow me to refresh your memory the guests that interviewed in the last five weeks, and that will be on the panel tommorrow: Frankie Picasso - The Unstoppable Coach, Lee Lam - Confidence Coach, Jennifer Stubbs - Dream Coach, Denise Brimmer - The Entrepreneur Coach, and Allison Kelsey - Vitality and Empowerment Coach.

If you want to participate in the discussion, you have three possibilities:

- Chat live with me and my guests tommorrow during the show

- Discuss with other like-minded people in the forum of The Coaching Panel

- Leave your comment here at the end of this post.

My guests and myself are looking forward to have you as live listener to The Coaching Panel’s Panel tommorrow on Radio Coaching.

Have an outstanding day and until tommorrow!

The next guest that I have the honour to interview is Allison Kelsey. Allison is a Vitality and Empowerment Coach.

Allison is passionate about working with her clients to enable them to discover who they truly are, to bring about transformation, to step into and reclaim their personal power, and live a life of vitality and joy.

She builds on her strong foundations in NLP, to use Archetypes, Intuition, Somatics and Energy to work with her clients at an identity and spiritual level. She believes it is who we are, our being that defines us, not what we do! When we know who we truly are, it is easier to form wonderful relationships, discover our true life purpose, understand why we are here…..and find joy in every day life. On the other hand, when we are off centre, and focus on what we need to do differently, where we need to go etc etc…….we get busy and can sometimes feel like we are chasing rainbows….

She is a qualified Hypnotherapist, NLP Master Practitioner, Certified Trainer of NLP, and an Archetypal Coach, and is in the process of completing her Yoga Teachers Training with Shiva Rea, Vinyasa Flow.

Allison spends her time developing and running courses and workshops, working one to one with clients, and bringing this work within organisations.

Join Allison and me LIVE on Tuesday April 22nd at 20:00 UTC (check with the clock you find on the sidebar on this page!) on Radio Coaching.

Have an outstanding day and we both look forward having you as listener on the show!

Jennifer Stubbs is a rising, young superstar. In very little time, as a solo-preneur, she’s become a National Award Winning salesperson, winning several awards in her industry for both sales and recruiting.

Her energy and passion is contagious as she guides you to clearly define goals, overcome any obstacles, and create a personal and powerful action plan for immediate success.

Her own life exemplifies her teachings of facing down any challenges to reach your goals and more! Even while raising two young, energetic boys and being forced into a Shelter for Abused Women, she managed to maintain her passion as a Certified Dream Coach and run two prosperous businesses.

Jennifer is a Certified Dream Coach and Personal Development Specialist.
She leads classes, coaches groups and consults individuals, along with publishing her articles and her own blog online.
The media calls on her for analysis and commentary on everything from goal setting to breakthrough life strategies.

Jennifer’s main coaching niche is the one focused towards Women Enterpreneurs. I am also, like you, eager to find out about her niche.

So, join Jennifer and me on the LIVE show of The Coaching Panel on April 8th, 2008 at 20:00 UTC.

Have an outstanding day and week!

Coach Erwin

After the great success of the first LIVE show of ‘The Coaching Panel’ last week, I have already the next interesting guest lined up for you. My guest on The Coaching Panel on April 1st is Lee Lam. Allow me to introduce to you Lee and her coaching niches.

Lee is a Relationship, Communication and Confidence Coach, having trained four and a half years ago. She qualified with an Advanced Diploma with the UK Coaching Academy. She is an NLP Master Practitioner, qualified to train the trainer and runs her own successful Coaching Practice, Lee Lam Coaching. She works alongside a variety of companies, such as concierge services, dating agencies, appraisal providers, consultancy companies and training companies.

Coaching Niches
Relationship and Communication Coaching

“Communication is about building relationships, however brief, that enable each participant to feel that they were heard, valued, and understood.”

Lee believes that individuals need to feel empowered – but much of that power comes from the value and energy they get from their relationships. This works both ways – lots of positive, loving relationships can help you achieve incredible things – but bad relationships can drain your energy, enthusiasm and drive. Lee’s experience with clients has shown time and time again that relationships are only as good as the communication the parties have. By working on how they communicate and helping clients identify all the signals they are sending out, rather than just the words they use, Lee shows clients how to guarantee positive conversations and thereby nurturing loving, supportive and ultimately empowering relationships.

Confidence Coaching

“You will only feel confident when you realise that you no longer worry about feeling confident!”

Lee believes that underlying the frustrations most people have about their life is a fundamental issue with confidence. We all have dreams or goals that seem impossible to realise. We give excuses, such as lack of time, money or opportunity. But the biggest reason we don’t try to realise our potential is our own beliefs about what we can achieve. We tell ourselves that it is the world that is stopping us when really it is what we are doing to ourselves through a lack of confidence.
Our potential for greatness is evident when events force us to step up a gear - when we feel that we have to act, we begin to test our own boundaries and abilities and realise a level of success that we never thought possible.
Yet when the pressure is not on, we feel inadequate, unworthy or simply not good enough to improve our lives. So we do nothing and feel frustrated that we are not moving in the direction we want.
You are the same person in both situations - it is only the messages you are sending to yourself that change. Change the message and you can change your understanding of what you are capable of. Once you start to act, you can begin to accumulate examples of how much you can achieve when you put your mind to it. Such proof strengthens your motivation to continue to move and you start really pushing your own boundaries, to achieve even more.
I work with individuals who are ready to push their boundaries, to change their self-beliefs and to find their inner confidence.

Lee and myself are already looking forward to welcome you as LIVE listener on the The Coaching Panel on April 1st 2008 at 20:00 UTC.

If you would already have in the meantime a question for Lee, use the comment space below this news-post or use the specific section in the forum ‘Ask Lee Lam’: http://www.radiocoaching.net/TheCoachingPanel/xdforum/posttopic/Ask-our-guests/2

Have a great and outstanding weekend!
