Greetings! I’m Ally Kenna, a life coach, and I’m excited to introduce you to this new section each quarter of Pittsburgh Latino Magazine.
Let’s start by exploring the fascinating world of coaching. According to the ICF*, coaching is a creative and stimulating process in which the coach and client collaborate to inspire and maximize personal and professional potential. This process unlocks previously untapped sources of imagination, productivity, and leadership.
Since each individual is unique, personalized approaches are required to achieve your goals. Some may find success by following specific guidelines, while others need more inspiration and enjoyment in the process. The key is to discover what your method is through experimentation and exploration.
With the guidance of a coach, you will be able to overcome obstacles, move from one point to another and find the motivation you crave. Make the decision, drive it with love and passion, add discipline and perseverance. You can do it! Believe in yourself!
Once you reach one goal, set another and continue on. Having a friend or professional as an accountability partner can make this journey easier. Sharing your goals with someone else gives you support, and you can be that person for someone else, too. By helping others, we help ourselves.
In conclusion, by taking care of ourselves and aligning our environment, mindset and focus, we can live a life full of vision, peace and happiness.
* ICF refers to the International Coaching Federation. The Spanish translation of the meaning of “coaching” by the ICF was made by the author of this article. https://coachingfederation.org/about
