"As someone who has lived the majority of my life as a performing artist, I’ve had to utilize different parts of me to navigate spaces that I’ve worked in and around particularly as a graduate student that was hired full time by the institution that I once was a student.

Lucie and I immediately hit it off after our chemistry session to learn how to achieve my professional goals with specific timelines and meeting my own objectives. My supervisor offered this coaching resource to assist me in cultivating my overall confidence in a work environment that was experiencing a major transition of another institution acquiring ours and the inter dynamics had changed dramatically.

My work with Lucie really enhanced my perspective as I navigate in diverse spaces. What has impacted me greatly is finding my own strength and power.

Lucie very clearly demonstrated to me that there is a distinction between mentorship, teaching, therapy and coaching and what she offers is a coaching methodology which keeps the coachee in the driver’s seat. I am becoming the kind of leader that I’ve always wanted to be and known that I could be thanks to Lucie."

Her unique approach and tactics were not only effective but also tailored to my specific needs and circumstances. She has a knack I feel incredibly blessed and happy to have Lucie as my coach during one of the most pivotal stages in my career.

Lucie possesses the magic to guide me toward becoming the best version of myself in my career, rather than blending into the crowd. She actively and patiently listens to all my concerns and questions.

–Understanding coaching–

Coaching is

A guiding relationship

Coaching is an empathetic and guiding relationship that focuses on unlocking your potential and facilitating transformational self-discovery.

A safe and nurturing environment

As a coach, I provide a warm and inviting environment that encourages your personal and professional growth and development.

Provoking thought & reflection

Coaching is about asking thought-provoking questions, sharing experiences, exploring vulnerabilities, and guiding you toward your own insights and solutions.

Forward-thinking

The strength of coaching lies in its forward-thinking, goal-oriented approach. Although historical context can be influential, coaching places primary emphasis on the present and the future, fostering development and progress.

Just advice

Coaching is not dispensing advice or having all the answers. Instead, it is about creating a safe space for you to explore your triumphs, struggles, and goals.

Therapy or counseling

Coaching is not therapy or counseling. It does not delve deep into emotional healing or resolving past traumas, which is the realm of therapy or counseling.

Backward looking

While acknowledging the past can provide valuable insights, coaching focuses less on mending past wounds and more on cultivating new perspectives, celebrating success, and preparing for future challenges.
