Coaching

Melinda offers one-on-one coaching and group coaching sessions. She uses a series of flexible coaching approaches designed to unlock personal insights so you can achieve your goals. Coaching is not just a casual conversation; it is a highly intentional process specifically designed to unlock your full potential. Unlike the unstructured, back-and-forth exchange of typical conversations where ideas are shared equally, a coaching session is a structured interaction centered entirely on your goals, challenges, and insights. The core difference lies in the coach’s role.

As your coach, Melinda brings purposeful focus to every session, transforming a mere conversation into a powerful journey toward clarity and decisive action. Her coaching conversations follow a reliable narrative structure built upon expert coaching skills. The journey begins when her clients bring a topic to the session, whether it is a challenge at work or a personal goal that requires deeper examination.

After listening deeply and "hearing below the surface" of what is said, Melinda offers her clients a clear reflection of their own thinking, highlighting key points and themes for the client to consider. This practice ensures clients feel genuinely heard and have the mental space to consider their own thoughts, often resulting in increased clarity around the heart of the challenge.

Throughout her sessions, Melinda offers powerful questions paired with thoughtful frames to help her clients explore new perspectives. Whether it involves incorporating metaphor, visioning, or embodiment, she weaves her coaching techniques throughout her sessions based on each client’s individual needs.

In the end, her clients emerge with newfound insights and tangible next steps. Clients leave the session able to articulate concrete takeaways they can reflect on between sessions. This consistency helps clients gain clarity about their challenge and take ownership of their future outcomes.
