I am a recovering jerk.
Working with Deidre for over a year has helped me identify my patterns, my flare ups and triggers. Once we identified them, she helped me craft plans and strategies to help me make different choices in the moment.
Deidre is incredibly patient, kind, supportive, insightful and playful; everything one needs in a coach.
My temper is completely under control. I don't freak out or yell at people.
My insecurity has vanished to a mere sliver. I now have moderate self esteem. Maybe one day soon I will have good self esteem.
The biggest thing Deidre has helped me with is in identifying my "stories"; the lies I tell myself, my beliefs, the lens through which I see the world, people, interactions.
I now own up to my lens, the way I see things. I shape them before I act.
I am tapped into my compassion, which I told myself I didn't really have (another story).
Right now we are working on my self doubts. I keep talking about creating this one thing and I am now officially full of crap. Deidre has taught and coached me into showing myself kindness and patience. I didn't realize how much of a stumbling block this was to me creating. She is so good at showing me how to laugh at my pain and frustrations. It makes the work fun and pulls us out when things stay deep and heavy too long.
Having a coach to help one through life is a new endeavor.
You have to ask yourself, how well have I been living my life just winging it?
Even Tiger Woods has a swing coach.
It doesn't matter if you're killing it.
We are constantly a work in progress and the ego slips in and sabotages us when we aren't paying attention.
If you are a jerk or someone who loves an jerk, Deidre is an jerk whisperer. Seriously, do the people around you a favor and get some Deidre in your life. read more
