Getting Started with Coaching-
The Onboarding Process
Step 1- Complete Initial Form
Let’s make sure a conversation is the right use of your time.
Before scheduling a call, you’ll complete a brief application about the change you are navigating, what you hope to accomplish, and the kind of support you need. This helps determine whether Dawn of Changes can offer the partnership and personalized guidance that would benefit you most.
If the coaching partnership appears aligned with your needs, you’ll be invited to a complimentary 30-minute consultation. This is not a coaching session. It is an opportunity to ask questions, explore how we might work together, and decide whether the partnership feels right for you.
Because effective coaching depends on the right match, an invitation is not extended to every applicant. If another service or type of support appears better suited to your situation, you will receive a thoughtful recommendation whenever possible.
The goal is to help you leave with greater clarity about the support, resources, and next step that can best help you move forward.
Step 2- Alignment Call
- It looks like we could work well together… now what?
If your application indicates that Dawn of Changes may be a strong fit for your needs, I will contact you by text with a link to schedule your complimentary 30-minute consultation at a convenient time.
The consultation will take place by video through Microsoft Teams. Your confirmation email will include everything you need to join the meeting. You do not need to download the Microsoft Teams app. Simply select the provided link to join through your preferred web browser.
Step 3- Strategy Session
- We are a match! Now what?
If we both agree that a coaching partnership is the right fit, you’ll be invited to schedule a 90-minute Strategy Session. This focused working session gives you a clear starting point and establishes the foundation for meaningful progress.
Together, we will:
- *Clarify your primary focus
- *Create a personalized roadmap based on your goals and circumstances
- *Identify practical next steps you can begin implementing immediately
You’ll leave the session with greater clarity, a sense of direction, and a realistic plan for moving forward.
Investment: $200
If you choose to continue with ongoing coaching, the full $200 will be credited toward your first month of the Monthly Retainer Service or the total cost of the 12-Session Value Package.
Ongoing Coaching Options: Choose 1
All ongoing coaching begins after completion of the Strategy Session.
Option A: Monthly Retainer
Consistent Support for Meaningful ProgressThis coaching option provides the structure, personalized guidance, and ongoing support you need to turn clarity into sustained action.
Each month, you’ll have the opportunity to schedule one 60-minute private coaching session per week. Between sessions, you may also check in with me by text or email up to six days per week. This combination gives you consistent space to work through challenges, clarify decisions, stay accountable, and maintain forward momentum.
A three-month commitment is requested to give you sufficient time to create and apply meaningful change. After the initial three months, you may continue coaching on a month-to-month basis for as long as the partnership remains beneficial to you.
Cancellation and Rescheduling
You may cancel or reschedule a session with at least 24 hours’ notice. Sessions canceled with less than 24 hours’ notice will be considered used.
Option B: 12 Session Value Package
Flexible Scheduling With Focused SupportThis option is designed for clients who want the same depth of personalized coaching with greater flexibility in how frequently sessions are scheduled.
You’ll receive twelve 60-minute private coaching sessions to use within six months. Sessions may be scheduled weekly, every other week, or at a pace that gives you time to reflect, apply what you are learning, and integrate changes between meetings.
This package is ideal if you prefer to focus your coaching support within scheduled sessions and work independently between them. Unlike the Monthly Retainer Service, text and email check-ins between sessions are not included.
You’ll receive the same intentional, personalized coaching in a flexible format that allows you to schedule support around your needs and circumstances.
Cancellation and Rescheduling
You may cancel or reschedule a session with at least 24 hours’ notice. Sessions canceled with less than 24 hours’ notice will be considered used.

Next Topic and Cohort
Trailblazing- Mapping Your Personal Purpose
The Compass Program- At certain points in life, moving forward is not about doing more. It is about pausing long enough to reorient yourself.
The Compass Program is a seven-week small-group coaching experience for people navigating a meaningful life change and exploring deeper questions about identity, direction, and purpose.
You do not need to fix yourself or arrive with everything figured out. The program gives you structured space to reconnect with what matters, understand what is changing, and intentionally shape what comes next in a way that feels grounded and authentic to you.
The program includes:
*Six guided group coaching sessions
*One private 50-minute coaching session
During your private session, we will refine your personal purpose statement and identify practical next steps based on the insights you gained throughout the group experience.
Each cohort is limited to six participants, creating space for thoughtful conversation, personal reflection, and meaningful connection. You’ll also have access to a private group chat for encouragement and connection between meetings.
The Compass Program may be a good fit if you:
- *Feel unsettled by a recent or ongoing change
- *Are questioning who you are becoming
- *Sense that your current direction no longer fits
- *Value reflection, meaningful conversation, and thoughtful guidance
- Want greater clarity without being pushed toward someone else’s definition of success
The Compass Program offers a supportive group environment for gaining insight, exploring possibilities, and learning from the perspectives of others. It can serve as a meaningful starting point or complement your private coaching work.
The program is offered periodically and is not always open for enrollment. Those on the waitlist receive advance notice of upcoming dates, meeting times, and pricing. There is no obligation to enroll.
