The Power of a Retreat

sarahucoach
June 26, 2018

Today I’d like to share one of my favorite success stories from my 1st retreat I hosted last year at The Elms Hotel & Spa in Excelsior Springs, Missouri. The above photo is taken from inside the gazebo at The Elms where the retreat takes place.

Before I begin I want to share that Angela has given me permission to share her story as the coach / client relationship is private and confidential.

Angela and I met at Sprint nearly 5 years ago at an internal networking event. At that time, I was just starting my coaching business part-time and beginning to grow my newsletter base. Angela signed up to receive my monthly newsletter and has been a loyal reader ever since.

In May 2017, when I announced my 1st Extreme Self Care weekend retreat at the Elms, Angela was the first to respond. She was thrilled to hear I was hosting an event in her hometown of Excelsior Springs and could not wait to attend.

At that time, she was beginning her yoga & meditation journey and wanted to continue to enhance her practice along with learning ways to incorporate more self-care into her daily routine.

After the retreat Angela was excited to start practicing and incorporating all the juicy knowledge she learned at the weekend retreat. Two months later I received an email from Angela telling me that her life was shifting in ways which brought her more joy & happiness on a daily basis. She signed up for yoga teacher training and wanted to learn more about one-on-one coaching with me. Here is the rest of her story.

Angela’s Powerful Coaching Journey

What prompted you to hire Sarah to be your coach?

I was not happy in my job. I wanted a change but was not clear on what I wanted or even why I was not happy. Learning more about Sarah’s background at the retreat in July 2017, I felt connected & decided to explore the coaching.

What are the tangible results of your coaching experience?

I got a new manager, got promoted, got a raise and I am continuing to pursue my dream of retiring at 55. I finished yoga teacher training. I have been hired by both the Excelsior Springs community center and The Elms to teach yoga.

What are the intangible results of your coaching experience?

Clear Vision, Inner-Peace, Confidence, Abundance, Friendship

What are Sarah’s strengths as a coach?

Great communication, clear expectations, organization, detailed, timely, genuinely vested in her coaching clients.

What was memorable or meaningful about your coaching experience?

The entire journey is something I will never forget. From the retreat at the Elms thru the entire coaching process. Sarah helped me navigate through the muddy waters & emerge! The most meaningful thing is that Sarah is always there for me, cheering me on, celebrating with me, holding me accountable.

Do you feel your coaching dollars were worth it? Why or Why Not?

Yes, I learned so much. I grew so much and to me that is PRICELESS.

Why do you think coaching works?

Accountability, New Ideas, Resources, Structure, Vision

What I love about Angela’s story

Angela TOOK ACTION. She made a big bold vulnerable move to come to the retreat by herself. While she was there she connected with other like-minded individuals who also had the same intention to take the best possible care of themselves.

At the retreat she learned how to let go of negative beliefs and ideas which were holding her back from living her best life. By releasing what was no longer serving her highest good she was able to allow more JOY and HAPPINESS to flow into her daily life. She learned how to set healthy boundaries for her life and create a crystal clear vision on what she REALLY wants.

So many wonderful exciting things are happening for Angela right now. I love that she is living an ABUNDANT life. As I was preparing to share her story we both commented on how much she has GROWN over this past year because she signed up & took action.

Are you ready to Take Action?

6 Ways to Beat the Sunday Night Blues

sarahucoach
April 9, 2018

In theory, the hours between 5pm on Friday and 8am on Monday morning are the most joyful blissful hours of the week. You walk away from the office and the stress of your work week melts away.

But come on, we all know how challenging it is to truly unplug for the weekend. With smartphones and laptops, it is hard to truly disconnect unless you have very healthy boundaries with your technology. Plus, you are trying to jam in as much as you can during the weekend to play catch up from the week before.

The reality is that Sundays are often dominated by feelings of dread, stress & anxiety. Plus, you may already be feeling behind because you just could not get everything done that you intended to this weekend.

The phenomenon is real. 78% of respondents in a recent international Monster.com poll reported experiencing the “Sunday Night Blues.” And for the lucky Americans 59% said they get it “really bad”

The Sunday Night Blues are created by a combination of realizing weekend fun is coming to an end and anticipating the beginning of five days of pressure, meaning it can strike even those who like their jobs. “Work is now spread out into home life with increasing demands because of email and the ability to work remotely,” says Steven Meyers, professor of psychology at Roosevelt University in Chicago, Ill. “Work has become more of a drain for many people than it was a decade or two ago. There’s more to dread nowadays.”

But a case of the blues doesn’t have to ruin your Sunday. Here are 6 strategies for beating those dreaded Sunday Night Blues.

Have a Sunday Ritual. Go to church, Take an evening walk with your spouse, neighbor or a friend. Relax a restorative yoga class. Enjoy family movie or game night. Plan Sunday night dinner with friends. Have something FUN to look forward to on Sunday nights.

Celebrate Your Accomplishments. Take time to reflect, write and share your WINS for the weekend. What do you feel most proud of accomplishing? Getting enough sleep (ideally 8.5 hours or more each night), spending time with your family & friends, unplugging from technology, exercising or doing something just for FUN.

Plan your week ahead. Take time to be very mindful & intentional about your week. What are you most looking forward to? Are you setting realistic expectations for yourself? Say NO to something. Don’t over commit. Allow yourself time to breathe & relax?

Make Healthy Choices. Exercise on Sunday is a must. Burn off the anxiety and increase your endorphins. Take time to plan out meals for the week. Do you have enough fruits & veggies? Do you have healthy options if you are on the go? Yes, that glass of wine might sound like a good idea, but alcohol is a depressant and is going to leave you feeling even lower in the morning. Is that how you want to start your Monday?

Promote Relaxation Before Bed. Write in your Gratitude Journal, Read a good book, Enjoy a relaxing bubble bath, Listen to soothing music, Meditate. Insight Timer has wonderful free guided meditations. Take time to quiet your mind chatter.

Resist the urge to skip all of the above and power up your laptop to catch up on work emails. NO, NO, NO!! You may think you are getting ahead but what you are really doing is promoting being workaholic & quickly approaching burn out. Plus, you are feeding your mind the message “it’s never enough” This habit is an instant energy zapper. By doing this you are starting Monday morning on empty.

Wouldn’t you feel better to start Monday rested, relaxed and with a FULL tank of ENERGY?

Is there an area you could use some additional support in?

Identifying & Zapping Energy Drains
Practicing Extreme Self Care
Setting Healthy Boundaries
Creating Value Based Goals

What Would You Do If You Weren’t Afraid – 3 Years Later

sarahucoach
December 19, 2017

Three years ago, today was my last day at Sprint. I packed up my desk, emptied my email, turned in my Sprint laptop & my Sprint badge and say good-bye to the professional life & career I’d known for the past 18 years. It was a very emotional day for me.

I knew it was my choice. I raised my hand to take the voluntary severance package to leave my corporate job as a Pricing Manager and venture out on my own. It was my choice to go all in and make my coaching business THRIVE.

I had a solid foundation to build my coaching business including my coaching training, my coaching certification, a solid business plan, my website, my newsletter, my content and my first few clients. Even with all of that I was very scared to enter the unknown. What if I didn’t make it? What if I failed? What if I wasn’t a success?

The past three years have not been easy. There have been several times I wanted to quit, I wanted to have my steady pay-check again, and I wanted to go back to the known vs. the unknown.

I knew I could go back. Knowing that was very comforting but I knew it wasn’t an option I wanted to explore.

I knew I’d be going back to the known but then I started getting comfortable with the unknown. I started exploring and experimenting what worked for me.

What do I REALLY like?

Who are my ideal clients?

Who makes me be my BEST self?

How can I really THRIVE?

Even with this exploring, there were many days I said, “What the **** am I doing? (insert any four letter word because I’ve used them all)

Each time I stumbled or hit a road block I changed my energy. I went to a yoga class. I took my dog Molly for a walk. I phoned a friend. I got a pep talk from one of my favorite cheerleaders. I scheduled a session with my mentor coach. I asked for help. I took ACTION to move forward!

As my energy changed. I let go of my negative thoughts like……………………

This is never going to work.

What in the world am I thinking?

This is a lot freaking harder than I ever imagined.

When I released my negative thoughts, I created more room for OPPORTUNITIES to flow in. I started receiving messages like………………………………………………….

Have you ever thought about becoming a certified yoga instructor?

Would you like to be a leader in the Kansas City Lean In Circle?

Have you ever considered becoming a part-time career transition coach?

Can you please help me with my resume?

I’m thinking about starting my own business can you review my business plan?

Can you please help me create my Vision Board?

Can you please help me prepare to interview for my dream job?

Can you be a guest speaker at my professional development day?

Would you like to lead a yoga, meditation & life coaching retreat?

Would you like to teach a yoga class at my lavender farm?

Can you please help me create a powerful personal brand?

Would you like me to introduce you to more opportunities?

How can I help you?

Over the past 3 years I’ve been asked each of these questions. By saying YES and asking for what I REALLY want I’ve been able to ATTRACT more of what I REALLY want. Somethings I never even knew were options. Like teaching yoga at a lavender farm.

If you would have told me 3 years ago, I’d be a Professional Certified Coach (PCC) in the International Coaching Federation and in 3 years I could make a positive impact in over 200 peoples lives I would have said “No way! How is that possible?”

If you would have told me that I’d be a certified yoga instructor and I’d be leading yoga, meditation and life coaching retreats at spas across the US, I would have said “You are crazy. No freaking way!”

I’m very proud to say YES, this has all happened. I’m actively creating the life & career I really want. I’m most grateful for my wonderful amazing clients who continue to inspire me to be my best coach I can be and to my family & friends for being the most awesome cheerleaders by motivating and empowering me to be my best self.

I’m so grateful I was asked the question What Would You Do If You Weren’t Afraid and I answered, “I’d leave my corporate job and coach full time.”

Now I ask you……….What Would YOU Do If You Weren’t Afraid?

What BIG BOLD changes would you make?

Where do you see yourself in 1 year, 3 years, 5 years?

What is holding you back?

Are you ready to let go of your FEAR?

Are you ready to take ACTION?

What do you want to celebrate on December 19, 2018?

How do you plan to get there?

I’m here to be your experienced guide. If you are ready to make BIG BOLD changes in 2018 contact me to set up your 1st strategy session.
