How do I become a coaching client as an individual or a couple?
You can use the contact page to let me know that you're interested in coaching. Please provide a phone number and the best times to call you. I'll contact you to discuss your goals for coaching and discuss appointment times. After that, I'll e-mail you a welcome packet and then we'll begin working on your agenda and moving you forward to where you want to be.
If I hire you as an educator, what may I expect?
I view myself as your employee. You have hired me to educate you in specific areas. You are entitled to a quality education, to ask questions, to seek clarity and to make sure you understand the material presented. We work together and partnering in your education to help you reach your goals..

If I hire you as a coach, what may I expect?
I will listen to you carefully, ask questions designed to help facilitate new discoveries and shifts in your perspective, and strategize with you. I will work with you to reach your goals, clarify your understanding and move your agenda forward. Coaching sessions are completely about you, your needs and your wants, and about making the changes you need in order to be happier. All sessions are confidential as I adhere to the ICF's Code of Professional Ethics and am certified with that governing body. For a more in depth answer to this question, please go to http://www.ForYourLifeCoach.com, my coaching Web site.
Do you work with couples or only those in D/s or M/s relationships?
Yes, I frequently work with people who want to refine the structure of their D/s or M/s relationship, or who want to troubleshoot problematic areas within their relationships. I have worked with several couples to put the D/s back into their lives when the daily pressures of living have eroded that part of their relationship. I also work with individuals on many other issues who find that having a kink-friendly coach works better for them because they are working with someone from whom they don’t have to hide this part of their lives.
Who do you mainly work with, bottoms or tops?
I work with bottoms, servants, tops, masters, slaves, submissive or dominant individuals, switches, masochists, sadists, and non-kink people. Sexual orientation, gender, self identity or play identity, aren’t a factor. I can work with anyone who has a desire to move forward and be more fulfilled in their lives.

Will you teach or coach groups of people?
Yes. I can design a class based on specific group needs and put it in my Skillshop format. Please e-mail with specifics and the number of people you have in your group. Flat fees for groups will be discussed per each specific group case.
I also travel to provide classes for groups of people. Costs for travel and lodging are added onto my fees. Please e-mail me with the specifics of the type of class you'd like, the size of your group and your location.

What are your hours for taking private appointments?
I work with clients Monday through Thursday between 10:30am and 10pm.
What is the difference between coaching and teaching?
As a teacher, I speak to you about a specific topic of interest chosen by you. I may provide handouts, visuals and/or exercises to further your learning. As a coach, I am not the primary person speaking. The focus of a coaching session is you. It's important that you have the space to talk, discover and explore. As a teacher, I am responsible for providing the framework and structure for you to learn. As a coach, I am not a guide—I stay in the framework created by your natural tendency to go where we need to go. Coaching and teaching alike beautifully complement your path of discovery, so I invite you to explore both options.

What are your areas of expertise in coaching?
I have many areas I coach clients. They are:
Executive coaching
This program assists executives with their jobs and making more efficient use of their time, resources and personal abilities. I also assist people in grooming themselves for a promotion or for achieving new goals within their professions. I have prior vice-president executive experience that enables me to understand and speak the language of corporate culture. This has allowed me to provide valuable insights to my clients.
Self-esteem coaching
This is one of my favorite areas of coaching. I can provide models and assessments for self-examination, along with many other tools that can be used to create higher levels of self-esteem. When you're sure of yourself, every aspect of your life is more satisfying.
D/s or M/s coaching
I can assist in relationship structuring and provide information regarding the many options you can use to start a new relationship, end a relationship well or maintain a current relationship. Problem solving is always part of maintaining healthy relationship, and there are many tools I can use to facilitate enhanced relationship health and satisfaction.
Service coaching
If you’re in service, I can work with you to help you find your personal service path and hold your space, plus provide tools for problem solving, motivation, time management and more.
Skillshops are based on university standard teleclass format. Some skillshops have accompanying documentation and visual aids. Most skillshops are also reinforced with a private members area that is restricted to members of the skillshop.
I am having trouble registering, what do I do?
Please email my assistant.
May I transfer my registration if I can no longer attend?
Registrations are transferrable up to seven days prior to the beginning of the class or Focus Group. For more information, please see the guidelines and policies that you received when you registered.
