COMFORTABLE CONFIDENCE
My passion is to help people find their comfortable confidence through my creative approach to coaching and by utilising character-building acting techniques, adapted from my career as an actor.
Comfortable Confidence is not a special brand of coaching, nor is it motivational speaker jargon. I found myself using the term often with clients and it has become the foundation of all of my coaching.
Confidence means many different things to many people. To some it is being able to stand on stage and perform Shakespeare, to others it is being able to leave their house with less anxiety than usual. We may perceive a person to be confident in the exact same moment when they are feeling excruciating social discomfort.
We all possess intrinsic confidence which is inextricably linked with self-worth. If we believe in our worth, believe in ourselves, believe in our strengths, we are confident. Sometimes this self-belief is in excess which tips confidence into arrogant and selfish behaviours. Other times confidence is in lack and life is not lived to its full potential, self-doubt takes over, situations are avoided, so as to keep hidden and small.
WHERE IS THE HAPPY MEDIUM OF CONFIDENCE?
This is where Comfortable Confidence comes in. It is the Goldilocks zone of confidence. Not too much, not too little but just right. And by right, I mean right for you. Not someone else's idea of confident, but yours. You see, if confidence is linked with self worth and self worth is based on your strengths, your values, your beliefs - then how can we even attempt to deem what confidence 'should be' for anyone but ourselves?
This is why coaching as many people into their unique confidence serves as a through-line to all of my coaching work. As a trained, ACC coach and member of the ICF you can rely on my integrity and credibility and with a BA Hons in Acting and over twenty years experience as an actor and drama facilitator, you can rely on my creativity and empathy as you navigate your challenges and achieve your goals through coaching.
YOU CAN LIVE AND LEAD WITH A CONFIDENCE THAT FEELS...JUST RIGHT.
