The Power of a Private Coach

Why doesn’t everyone have one?

Not long ago, I faced ongoing fallout from a life-and-death situation affecting myself and my newborn daughter. It was a terrifying time, and I couldn’t believe how hard it was to find someone to confide in. Friends and family were compassionate but unable to stay neutral about the situation. I looked for a professional, but quick access to therapy was hard to find.

At the time of this life-changing event, I was 15 years into my career in Advertising, Digital, and Marcom. I saw the underbelly of over 70 high-growth companies. The vulnerability of their businesses could all be determined by one thing: their top talents’ ability to be resilient to the fires of the business world and their willingness to evolve. We brought coaches into the mix on many occasions; each time producing great results.

I became interested in understanding the magic, developing myself, and having the ability to coach employees internally. I trained under a Master Coach and received a Coaching Certification. I now personally understood the power and benefits of 1-on-1 coaching.

So, when I found myself in uncharted territory with my daughter, I knew having a coach could offer me the outlet I needed. In looking for a solution, my time-sensitive circumstance didn’t fit into coaches’ expert niches, or their long, expensive programs. I needed access to an outlet on my terms — trusted, affordable, and brief.

Complications at birth affected me and my daughter after a perfect pregnancy. She wasn’t expected to live past 48 hours and, if she did, was suspected to have major brain damage. She survived thru a coma for two months.

Here at Priizm, we believe life is messy — not you.

Everyone can benefit from a sounding board. A trained listening ear with no agenda who wisely, and compassionately, guides you to clarity and confidence.

Our lives are always in a state of motion; brought on by moving toward goals, away from challenges, or through transitions.

We suffer when we get stuck moving through these states because of our perceived limitations, fear of an outcome, confusion about what to do next, or our lack of skills to do it. This shows up in all areas of life, all the time.

Priizm coaches understand this dynamic. We harness the power of coaching to help real people design the life they want in real-time. We help you develop the muscle to evolve and be resilient.

How do we do this?

Ah, that’s the secret sauce that only our coaches have 😊

As the Founder of Priizm, I pride myself on:

  • Knowing coaching works.
  • Knowing how to spot the best-in-class talent; only top coaches are accepted onto Priizm’s platform.
  • Offering one, radical, low session cost so everyone can access private coaching.
  • Personally ensuring there is someone available to talk right now.
  • Training our coaches to get to the heart of the matter, so you can get on with your day.
  • Making it easy to sign up and connect — anytime, anywhere, on any device.

Don’t just take my word for it. Our clients time and time again tell us that after their calls they feel ‘lighter’ — like a weight has been lifted.

I felt so much better after my call. The coach went above and beyond.

This is the result of experiencing a deep connection and next level conversation; the kind we don’t get anywhere else in our lives.

Coaching has helped me in all areas of my life. It is tried-and-true, fire-tested, and applicable to anything. I’ve seen its power from many angles: bottom line results in the professional world, as a coach myself, and as a mom from inside of one of the worst situations a parent can be in. If the process helped me navigate mine and my daughter’s full recovery, it can help you today. I’m sure of it.

Coaching for everyone.

For today, the future, and the journey between.
