Coaching

Joan Friedlander - Entrepreneur, Author, Coach

People who have been impacted by a serious illness get a big wake-up call that signals it is time to slow down a bit, do things differently, and become more mindful of how and where they extend their energy.  It takes strength, awareness and persistence to stay true to your ideals, to be a beacon of light for yourself and others.

My purpose is to  serve those who have been impacted by a health crisis and are ready to rebuild their business – or start anew – under “new management.”

My clients have included human resource consultants, writers, web designers, non-profit executives and staff, scientists, coaches, financial planners, and other professionals in service-based businesses. In addition to the common issues associated with rebuilding after an illness, they are like any other service business owner. They want to do meaningful work, contribute to the welfare of others, be well-rewarded for their efforts, and enjoy the fruits of their labor.

Imagine this:

  • You are infused  with a sense of purpose and direction
  • You start the day relaxed and confident about your priorities
  • You become increasingly comfortable following your inner guidance
  • You laugh at minor set backs, knowing that you have survived much worse.
  • Your bucket list becomes a present-day set of projects, not activities that have to wait for “someday.”
  • You are able to focus on what the work that matters most no matter how much or how little time you have
  • You are comfortable saying “no” to projects, people and commitments that threaten to displace your own priorities
  • You have much needed time for family, friends and self-care, not once in a while but every week

“Our work together is my most important resource in re-crafting my life.  Thank you so much.”
