Coaching Styles

Jewish Coaching
“Success like happiness, cannot be pursued. It must ensue. And it only does so as the unintentional side effect of one personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself.”
Victor Frankl

Being born or choosing to be Jewish is a privilege. Like all blessings it shouldn’t be taken for granted but should be nurtured to maximize its benefits. Expressing Jewishness doesn’t necessarily mean being “religious” or ritually observant. There are multiple entry points and approaches by which one can fully appreciate their Jewishness.

Many who have experienced Jewish coaching:

• Feel more comfortable in their Jewish skin.
• Find more relevance and connection to their Jewishness.
• Resulted in articulating a Jewish value system that is an integral part of their life.

Haredi Coaching
“If I am not for myself who will be for me? And if I am only for myself, what am I? And if not now, when?”
Hillel the Elder

Many haredim, wishing to live more openly and freely feel trapped and locked into a religious system and closed community that no longer meets their needs, or offer a life style with the promise of fulfillment. Some are fearful about transitioning to a more open society with multiple life style options and are reluctant to take the necessary steps to a more engaging and fulfilling life.

Many haredim who feel a general sense of dissatisfaction ought to ask themselves the following questions:

• Do I feel an attraction to t he world outside my community?
• Do I feel that getting there is overwhelming and beyond my grasp?
• Does living a different life style appeal to me?
• Does transitioning out of the haredi community mean “all or nothing”?

Personal and Retirement Coaching
“Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving.”
Albert Einstein

Personal Coaching:
Personal life coaching considers your whole life and helps you assess and evaluate what would make you the happiest and finding your true purpose. Life coaching also helps you define your goals and achieve them.

The benefits of personal coaching can be:

• Greater confidence
• A more meaningful life
• A more purposeful life
• More energy

Retirement Coaching:
Many people retiring are concerned and anxious about the unknown. After a life of regimentation where decisions and patterns of life revolved around the “job and children”, you are now faced with making life-altering decisions. You are entering a new and exiting phase with time to consider where you are going, how you will get there, and what it is you will do when you get there.

The benefits of retirement coaching:

• Optimize your time and effort
• Consider the options
• Learn to embrace the “challenge”
• Define new goals and achieve them
• More energy
