Coaching

And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.”

Anais Nin

Envision & design your life

If not now, when?

Have you previously turned to self-help books, in-person or online personal development programmes, or listened to internationally acclaimed speakers promising you transformation if you follow a few simple steps?  If so, did it change your life?

Inner work is individual and needs individual human connection.  I am there as a fellow traveller to support you on your particular journey.

We all have a unique place in the world, as threads in the tapestry of life. Because we are all unique, discovering and reconnecting to our gifts, dreams and true essence is neither one-size-fits-all nor linear.

Like any leap of faith, this important personal work may initially feel delicate and challenging.  It flourishes in the intimacy of a one-to-one relationship, the privacy of a safe space and the warmth of human connection.

By opening up to the transformation, acknowledging past wounds, the forces that influence you and the impact those have on your life, you can re-discover and re-connect with your inner self.  That in turn opens up change in many areas of your life.

I love helping people like you to see and to create your perfect picture.  A new relationship with yourself allows you to uncover what makes you feel alive.  You and your world feel vibrant and connected – you feel a new purpose and a clear alignment with your desired future, making the most of this human experience.

 

Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?”

Working with Celine these past 3 years has been wonderful and with each session, I see my mental resilience growing largely because of her techniques and the connected, compassionate way that she approaches coaching.
Vimaljit Kaur, Singapore

I would highly recommend Celine. She has a warmth of spirit that makes you feel safe and supported by exploring the inner terrain. She helps to see possibilities when stuck and expand into new ways of showing up in the world. With her powerful listening, you find the way forward regardless of where you are going. It has been a profound experience working with her.

I have been coaching with Celine for a few years now, and our lasting engagement is a true testament to the way she can take me on a journey, to reconnect and reflect; connecting mind, body, and soul. Celine has a unique way to keep you calm and to feel safe to be vulnerable. She is able to apply the right technique to any scenario raised. I am blessed to have her time and look forward to our continued coaching journey together.

Working with Celine over 18 months felt like a real gift. She is a living example of FemmeQ – feminine intelligence. Celine combines deep inner work, profound wisdom and intuition, years of experience in the corporate world with warmth and impressive expertise. She is a rare gem in the world of Change Makers.
I am proud to walk by her side.
Alexandra Feldner, London
Founder -FemmeQ & Shine your Light
Celine has been a great role model when it comes to addressing the deeper topic under the more superficial topics. She also modeled a great blend of empathy and shared responsibility. I was amazed by her intuition and her way to reformulate my words.
Julia Feste, Shanghai
Non Violent Communication Trainer and Coach
Celine has a very warm style. She is attentive, creative and takes a holistic approach which worked very well for me. I greatly benefited, both personally and professionally, from receiving coaching with Celine. Her warm and empathetic approach was wonderfully complemented by her willingness to be creative and courageous in challenging me.

We all have dreams and deserve a chance to attain them.  Your socio-economic background or your financial situation should not get in the way of getting the help and support you need.

 

“If only I could afford a coach, I could change my life.”

 

I am conscious of the privileges I have had, and that others have not been so fortunate.  I believe in paying things forward and in bridging the gaps between inequalities.  So I am committed always to offering my coaching services to two clients who want to commit to do their inner work and bring lasting change into their lives, but who could not otherwise afford my services.

If my words resonate with you and you want coaching but worry you cannot afford it, then please get in touch, and let’s find a way to work together.

Dive-in Conversation

Got a specific challenge that requires
immediate attention?

A 90-minute Dive-in Conversation will help you see the light.

Maybe you feel no need to engage in a coaching programme but in your day-to-day life you occasionally face challenging situations that deeply affect you. Sometimes those are overwhelming, bring up difficult emotions, and entangle you in thought patterns.

In those moments you would benefit from having a deep, yet focused and structured, conversation with a thinking partner, someone outside your immediate circle, to help unravel your experience. You need someone who will not judge or want to ‘fix’ you, someone who can see you, hear you, sense you and hold you as you work through the experience.

One of the deepest longings of the human soul is to be seen.”

John O’Donohue

You might be wanting to:

  • understand what’s happening by taking a deep dive into the experience you are having;
  • explore what your emotions and physical sensations are telling you;
  • gather new insights on how you can respond to the experience while staying grounded;
  • get perspective & clarity on how to move through it with ease;
  • identify the implicit messages within the experience and the lessons to be learned; or
  • think out loud, be challenged and supported as you uncover blindspots and navigate through the experience to a place of peace.

As a result you will:

  • get unstuck and stop ruminating on the issue;
  • feel more in control of your own experience;
  • appreciate those experiences as opportunities to learn, deal with the next challenge, and grow;
  • feel more confident about facing those difficult situations in future, and no longer fear them, knowing to reach out for support if they get messy.

 

I offer a safe and brave space for the conversation that will save you time and energy, as well as helping you move through and learn from the challenge.

If you learn to recognise those situations in which you get stuck and reach out for an insightful conversation when you need it, you will be amazed by what happens and how much more in control of your life you will become.

Frequently Asked Questions

The International Coaching Federation defines coaching as “partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximise their personal and professional potential”.

Coaching isn’t mentoring, therapy, or consulting, although it’s related to all those disciplines. A difference is that in those relationships you’re generally seeking answers from an expert.

My expertise is in creating and holding a safe and brave space for you to explore and bring to life your longings and your dreams.

I’m not an expert on you or your aspirations, and I don’t have ready-made answers for you. I do have questions, and my aim with each client is to earn the right to ask uniquely challenging questions to help you reach new insights and breakthroughs so you can take your life to the next level.

I support you through a combination of questions, feedback, and assignments, and a powerful intuition built up over years of experience and hundreds of hours of working with clients.

The most important factor in choosing a coach will be your subjective judgement. The most impeccable credentials and decades of experience are meaningless if a coach doesn’t feel right to you.

Below are some questions related to different aspects of coaching that you might find useful when talking to potential coaches – reading them might also help you decide what factors are most important to you.

  • Do I feel rapport with this person?
  • Can s/he be compassionate, help hold me accountable AND be willing to challenge me?
  • Why is s/he a coach? How did s/he end up on this path? Is their answer compelling or meaningful to me?
  • Can s/he say why they’re not a good fit for every client? What clients have s/he turned down and why?
  • Is s/he working on their own development as well?
  • Has s/he been coached? Does s/he have a coach now?
  • How does s/he articulate the differences & similarities of coaching, consulting, mentoring & therapy?
  • Do I feel I trust this person and could get value from working with him/ her?

Coaching is a powerful and inspirational process relying on meaningful conversations.

Different people get different things at different paces from coaching, because everyone is different.

In practice, I sit with you and support and challenge you to expand what you think is possible and, to create the results you want to create.

Expect to make breakthroughs. Expect some parts to be challenging. Expect to experience subtle changes along the way and “ah-ha” moments.

The more you invest, the more of your heart and soul you put into your own personal development, the greater the results we generate.

Any coach should help you get clear about what truly matters for you. Expect also:

  • complete confidentiality;
  • no judgement;
  • 100% commitment to you and the process;
  • a person who listens deeply and intuitively;
  • a fearless partner to explore with;
  • someone who tells you the truth;
  • someone who holds you accountable to your; values and your commitments; and
  • a champion who believes in you and your dreams.

If you show up for the sessions and commit to doing your work between them, you will feel major shifts.

You will start to regain control of your life, your aspirations and your emotions. You will feel more confident, you will have more energy to tackle the challenges that come your way, you will find peace and joy in your relationships, you will look at the future with hope … and you will look forward to your next session.

I’m happy to explain my pricing in a

FREE 30-minute Connection Call

In a nutshell, it depends on your commitment and the amount of support you want. For longer-term commitments and upfront payments, the price per month decreases on a sliding scale.

Engaging a coach can seem like a big financial investment. However, the dividends on your investment are a steady improvement in your mindset, happiness, and choices,.

Think about what you’ve spent on holidays – thousands of dollars to alleviate worries and stress and reset, only to return home to face the same old worries and stress.

Coaching is a values-based investment that improves your life long-term.

What is happiness or peace of mind worth to you?

  • As an introduction to working with me, we will start with a powerful coaching conversation.
  • Coaching sessions are usually 60 to 90 minutes, in person, over the phone or via Zoom.
  • The first thing we’ll do is get really clear on our vision for our coaching work: what does success look like for you?
  •  If you haven’t completed the 4-week Discovery Package with me, we will spend the first sessions finding out who you are, where your strengths lie, what you long to bring to life and what’s holding you back.
  • We will usually have sessions every 2-3 weeks, with the flexibility to meet more or less frequently at some points during the package.
  • Between sessions, you can contact me via email or WhatsApp if you have any questions or want to follow up on parts of our conversation.
  • I’ll provide you with a safe space to discuss what’s important to you. I’ll support and challenge you with questions and feedback.
  • Coaching is about action, and creating real change in your world, so between sessions, there will always be assignments for you.

The coaching sessions can take place :

  • in person;
  • on Zoom or Skype;
  • by phone;
  • in a calm and intimate location in Singapore; or
  • on a walk in nature (walking session).
