Why Coaching?
Inside of everyone, there is a person we would like to be. There is a life that seems more fulfilling than the one we are experiencing now. There's always an excuse or a reason for not living that life, or for not being the person we want to be. Sometimes we are just stuck. Life seems unfulfilling and we don't know what to do about it. And even if we do know what to do, we don't do anything. You deserve more. Let me tell you how you can change that.
Ask yourself honestly what those dreams are. If you could live the life you really wanted what would you be doing differently? Who would you have to become? Imagine how you would feel if you were living that life.
We all have limiting beliefs in one form or the other that are holding us back.
The most common ones that I hear are that we don't have enough time or enough money. Of course there are many others. It doesn't matter why you have these beliefs. What's important is to change them. They have been running your life. That's where I come in. I'm committed to inspiring you to believe in yourself.
Your ability to live a fullfilled and successful life can be reawakened in a series of explorations designed to empower you in rediscovering what's possible in your life. Instead of focusing on what's wrong I help you discover what it is that you want and desire and create a strategy to get it. Just like a navigation sysem, it starts with assessing exactly where you are now, and where you want to go. Once that occurs your potential for personal and professional success is unlimited.
At some point in our work together you will feel good about who you are and about your career. So when you say you're successful you mean you enjoy life and are excited about living. You're excited about your ability to connect with others and the work you do. Life again seems effortless.
I know what it takes to make it happen. I say that with conviction. I was a busy trial lawyer for thirty years, husband and father and musician. I have seen countless people who have worked with me, transform their lives. Taking the next step by contacting me, could be one of the most important decisions that you make in your life.

Give yourself the edge!
Explore what's possible in your life.
Perhaps the most significant benefit that my clients experience is that they reconnect with the source of their authentic self and their personal power so that they believe in themselves again. Here is what one of my current clients, Jay Nathanson, has to say:
"As a young man, I had an authentic sense of self that was full of energy, adventure, spirituality, and love. Then I “grew up.” Thirty years of business, starting several companies, trying to be what other’s wanted me to be, and all of the related stress associated with trying to acquire the proverbial Golden Egg. As a trusted guide, mentor and friend, Mark has essentially said to me "Hey, look over here, under all this clutter. Do you see what I see? As I looked, I was amazed. For what I saw, though a bit dusty, was my old friend, waiting for me - my authentic self, full of positive energy, my real Golden Egg."

Once this happens you will have the courage to make the necessary changes and expand what is possible in your life. Here’s what Don McLaughlin, a former client had to say.
"As someone who had done lots of personal growth work with individuals like Deepak Chopra and Tony Robbins, I was a bit reserved about whether working with Mark would add anything to my life. Now, nearly one year after first meeting Mark, I can say with 100% conviction that my work with Mark has been hands-down the most powerful personal growth work that I have done. Through Mark's ongoing support, guidance and wisdom, I picked up my family and left my law firm to pursue a job that I've dreamt about my entire life. And now, quite literally, I am living a dream come true and I simply would not be where I am today without Mark's coaching. "

Many clients have shared their story on my website. All of them began with an initial thirty-minute complimentary consultation. There lives were changed. Perhaps you’re ready to make that same choice.

Frequently asked questions
|
|
|

Who is a coaching candidate?
Anyone who is ready to change the quality of their life. But in doing so, they must be ready to overcome their resistance to changing the way they have been doing things. They must have an openness and willingness to explore new possibilities and invest in themselves. My mission is to exceed your expectations. I say to people." Give yourself the Gift of Coaching."
When is a good time to begin?
The most common objection that I hear to beginning a coaching relationship is that now is not a good time…perhaps a few months from now will be better. But we all know that in a few months there will be other reasons and excuses not to begin. Because you are reading this it tells me that you are curious to what the benefits are in having a coaching relationship and there is no better time than now!
How long does the coaching relationship last?
The duration of a coaching relationship like most other relationships depends on what both parties are getting from the relationship. As long as there is value the coaching relationship deepens and what is possible in your life expands. There is an initial three month commitment but most relationships extend much longer. Sessions are usually 40 minutes and are either on the phone or in person.
What is the difference between coaching and therapy?
The emphasis in therapy is on healing old wounds from the past that are preventing you living a normal productive life. Usually these wounds are a result of past traumas or emotional issues. In contrast, the basic tenet of coaching is that you are whole, creative and resourceful the way you are now. Coaching is future oriented and getting you to look at what is possible in your life. The focus then becomes on what actions you can take to transform your life from ordinary to extraordinary. Coaching and therapy do complement each other and it is not uncommon for a person to be involved in both processes. Occasionally I refer clients to therapists.
What is the difference between coaching and consulting?
If we want to play golf, we might hire a consultant to help us find the best equipment and best places to play. Once we have the best equipment and know where to play we hire a coach so that we can play better. A coach helps us have focus and discipline so that we can keep expanding and evolving our abilities to be better golfers and to enjoy our experience of the game. A coach helps us be the best we can be.
