Coaching and Consultation
Transition Coaching
My coaching focuses on supporting a current or expected life or work transitions. Coaching takes place by phone or other digital formats, in a series of three or more sessions.
Using my model for Writing Through Transitions®, you will get very clear about the strengths you have for your transition, how to set priorities and maintain structure during the changes. Most important, you will understand the transition process in terms of your life context. My goal is that you come away with tools and strategies that fit your needs. We will determine the outcome you want for the coaching, and you’ll have tools that will last you a lifetime. (Please note that this coaching is not therapy or mental health counseling. It is guidance on the process of transition we all experience in our lives.)
I have been working with Leia as my coach for the past two years. I began working with her shortly after my retirement. I had no clear sense of what this next phase of my life would look like but knew that I needed to create a meaningful life.
Leia’s compassionate coaching helped me explore each phase of my transition. As a result of our work together, I am applying my skills and passion to work that gives me the purpose and fulfillment I was searching for.
Leia Francisco has helped me immensely both personally and professionally amid my turbulent transitions. She was my anchor in understanding the intricacies of transitions, as well as providing a warm, friendly, supportive space to catch my breath.
She leads by example, and encourages self-inquiry and personal empowerment, infusing her wisdom and understanding of the transition and human experience.
She is the calm amidst life’s storms, a true exemplar of the power of one to positively affect the lives of many.
Consultation
You may want help in designing your own transition coaching materials, using my materials or ones we customize for you. I can guide you in facilitating transitions for an organization or small group, or individual clients.
You get the maximum benefit of my experience and design skill in the shortest amount of time. I will provide you with additional resources and follow-up as needed.
At the conclusion of our work, you will have in place transition management work that can be used with confidence. Please also consider the popular certification training program that gives you a deep experience in designing your own program and include 90 minutes of coaching with me.
Contact me to set up a consultation. I will send you a short survey to identify your needs before we talk. The charge is $150 per hour.
Leia Francisco is the consummate transitions guide – learned, wise and compassionate. She deftly fosters clear vision when you’re stuck in the weeds while inviting solid, practical strategies necessary to support your “new way.’ Leia accomplishes this with humor, grace, and deep respect for the skills and wisdom that you may not have unlocked yet in yourself. The result is a navigation plan that can be your own map for all of life’s changes – welcome or not – you can thrive!
