Skill Monkey

FAQs

Common Questions about Coaching

I took the term Skill Monkey from Dungeons & Dragons. In the game, Skill Monkeys are characters with dynamic, ever growing skill sets which they can leverage to get them out of whatever unique situation they are facing. I believe everyone needs to embrace their inner Skill Monkey to create the life they want

As a coach, my goal is to help my clients take positive actions across different aspects of their lives in order to achieve their vision for a fulfilling future. I primarily focus on my clients’ professional and financial lives, but sessions may touch on other aspects as well. Our sessions may range from how to establish a household budget to understanding the basics of investing or planning for a tough conversation with their boss or preparing for upcoming interviews. Every client is unique and so is each session, so these are just a few broad examples. Want to learn more? Book a (free!) 30 minute discovery session today.  

I don’t refer to myself as a life coach. While our sessions may touch on issues related to wellness or life fulfillment, my primary focus is on improving the professional and financial aspects of your life. 

I divide my coaching sessions into three sections. After our initial hellos, we’ll jump into a conversation about where we left off last time. I may follow up on a few items or homework assignments, too. We’ll also celebrate any wins or progress made towards goals since the last session. Next up: the current events section, where we either continue working on a topic from a previous session or turn our attention to something new. In the final section, we’ll discuss where we want to be by the next time we meet. We’ll go over any commitments or goals you’ve set and discuss any homework tasks before closing. 

For long-term clients, I generally prefer to meet twice a month. This gives my clients time to refine the strategies we discussed in our sessions and move the action forward in their lives. Of course, I am open to meeting more or less frequently to match the needs and schedules of my clients. 

I work with both couples and individuals! Check out more information about my offerings on my Services page. 

I am currently designing a series of workshops for larger organizations and plan to launch them in 2024. That being said, I’m happy to host something sooner if that’s what you’re looking for! Feel free to drop me a line if you are interested in designing a group event. 

I tailor my pricing model to match both my client’s needs and their current financial situation. Pricing is always discussed during the free discovery session to ensure we’re on the same page. Sign up for your intro session today to learn more.
