Mentoring

Innate Wisdom Connection / Mentoring

What do you need when you are in business solo or an employee or management or the CEO and need a sounding board? Someone neutral but knowledgeable to understand and bring up the questions to consider that turn that light bulb on? Or a safe place to vent and be non-politically correct, unreasonable, irresponsible, upset, excited or any of the other behaviour you must not show as part of your role but feel like such a relief to get it out?

When it is lonely at the top, it can mean there is no-one in the organisation to talk about situations that arise that may need discussion with someone who has no stake in outcomes. This can help to process, contextualise and if required, figure out a way forward. What you may need is a mentor who can create a safe space and provide these and more.

I offer a safe focussed space to bring up what cannot usually be discussed with others, muse, reflect and even vent.    I am present to create space for you to slow down and process what is or has happened. The right questions to help to put things into perspective, share your thoughts and feelings, relax in a compassionate space with accessible feedback.                                  

Empathetic acknowledgment and validation helps enhance your empowered sense of self and enables you to also function during times of high stress.

Making choices that may seem daunting in the workplace get unpacked and interpreted for appropriate action including where to turn, where is support, what is the best way forward and weighing up outcomes.
