Ready to explore coaching?

Here’s what happens next:

  • This short form helps us get to know what you’re looking for, and from there, we’ll guide you through the next step that feels right for you.

  • Depending on your preferences, we’ll text, email, or call to offer next steps and answer questions.

  • We’ll match you with a coach based on what you share on the form in Step 1

  • Meet your coach in a low-key way before diving into a full intro meeting.

    Depending on your preferences, we’ll text, email, or call to figure out together what coaching can do for you/your loved one. You’ll get a chance to ask questions and see how you vibe with your chosen coach.

  • Spend 30-45 minutes in a video meeting with your coach to get a real sense of how coaching works, and whether it’s the right fit.

1. Fill out a quick form:

Whether you're exploring coaching for yourself or for someone you care about, you're in the right place. This short form helps us get to know what you’re looking for, and from there, we’ll guide you through the next step that feels right for you.


2. We’ll reach out:

We’ll contact you via whichever mode of communication you say you prefer when you fill out the form in Step #1 (text/phone call/email/something else). Phone calls and texts will come from (425) 584-2012 and emails will come from info@alifeofmyown.com.


3. Get Matched with a Coach:

Check out the Our Team page to get to know our coaches. If you’re still not sure which person would be the best fit for you, no worries! Most people still aren’t sure at this point. We’ll send you a Coach Matching Survey to get to know you, your interests, and what you’re looking for from a coach. Follow the process above to get sent this survey!


4. Discovery Chat (if needed):

If you’re still not quite sure about coaching and whether it’s the right fit for you or your loved one, we’re happy to schedule a 15-30 minute phone call (or we can email or text) to answer any of your questions or discuss whether coaching is the right fit for your particular situation. During this chat, if we discover together that another service like therapy or another support would be more appropriate than coaching, we’ll be sure to connect you with something that would be a better next step! Our goal is for the client to receive the support they need; whether from A Life of My Own, or another one of our trusted partners in the field.


5. Try an Intro Meeting:

When you’re ready to try it out, we offer a free intro meeting with the coach(es) you’ve been matched with. This meeting is a great opportunity to see if coaching is right for you, and to see if you vibe well with the coach(es) you’ve been matched with.

A stat we’re really proud of: we’ve never had a client make it to this step and not want to move forward with at least trying out coaching for a short period of time. Clients say this process and meeting a coach for the first time feels intimidating until they actually meet their coach and get to see that we’re just normal, chill people who tend to understand what you’re going through better than most people.

Note: this meeting is NOT a test, there’s no right or wrong way to show up for it. You can keep your camera on or off, bring fidgets, etc. Your only job is to be you and be open to talking about your situation and what you’d like to change.
