Unlike many of my colleagues whose personal divorce experience led them to divorce coaching, divorce and relationship coaching found me. From my vantage point as a successful consultant, I decided to pursue coach training because of my fascination with the factors that enable some people to engage with and make change easily and leave others paralyzed and fearful.
In the course of my training as a coach, and already working with Main Line Family Law Center, I was introduced to some breakthrough questions that challenged me to examine my own life in a way that was more honest and authentic than ever before. I opened myself up to a deep inquiry into my life—a life that had not felt entirely right for a long time. Through this process, and 16+ years into my marriage, I discovered that I was gay. I was also able to see that I had allowed myself to become disempowered in many ways and was not living in my strength.
When people ask me how I made it through the pain and challenge of making the change, I always acknowledge my support team as the most critical factor in being able to navigate this journey and emerge stronger and in a healthier place on the other side. We are not meant to travel this journey of life alone. Divorce Essentials and Companion Coaching is my response to the tremendous support and guidance I received and that I know is critical for anyone to be able to transform their life or relationship.
