SO WHAT IS LIFE COACHING?

Coaching is a collaboration between the Coach and the Client to help clients create their best selves – be it at work, in relationships, and in their everyday lives. Coaches provide a sounding board and ask thought-provoking questions that guide clients to identify their goals and obstacles holding them back, discover their passions, and create byte-size strategies and solutions to achieve long-lasting change. The result: living a happier, more abundant life full of meaning, purpose and joy. 

WHAT MAKES MY COACHING STYLE UNIQUE

Do you want to know the real secret about changing your life?

It’s not about making resolutions or grand gestures – it’s actually the opposite: Micro-steps! With my thought-provoking questions and specific formula of byte-size micro steps, you will step outside your comfort zone and uncover your inner wisdom in order to become the person you are truly meant to be.

And FYI …. I don’t lead your typical coaching sessions. My sessions are highly interactive and guaranteed to get you to “eat, sleep, move, breathe” wellness in real time.

So, instead of "the same old" Zoom calls you will:

• Walk with me over virtual walk & talk coaching sessions,
• Practice role playing and visualizations to put insights into action,
• Meal prep and/or grocery shop together in order to invoke nutritious & healthy eating,
• Shake it out and dance like no one is watching,
• Open your heart and mind with yoga and mindfulness practices,
• Strengthen your body and mind with ballet barre and "deskercises,"
• Create your journey of self-discovery and self-love.

WHY CHOOSE ME AS YOUR COACH?

There are a lot of personal and business coaches out there - so why select me?

Here are a few reasons:

• Academic Training: By trade and training, I am a social scientist with a long standing career in academia and research in health behavior change.
• Inspiration: You will grow as I inquire and inspire while taking you along an adventurous journey of self-discovery, self-love and emotional literacy.
• Intuition: You will benefit from my intuitive nature and feel listened to as I will be fully present with you during our sessions together.
• Moving Beyond Now: I create a safe space to explore, listen deeply, empathize with people in transition and in trauma and pain, and help you discover and live your full potential - with vitality, passion and purpose.
• Compassionate Self-Acceptance: With my guidance and years of experience, I will help you disentangle complex topics, see and hear what is hidden and unsaid, name your emotions, identify core values, set boundaries, make mind-body connections, and practice self-compassion. This will lead you to a place where you can more clearly see what is right for you moving forward.

MEET MY ALTER EGO...Kim Bercovitz, Ph.D.

Rest assured that I am not a stuffy scientist who will coach you through life transitions and optimal health solely through hard data.  I’m on a mission to make self-care and self-discovery easy and accessible - one micro-step, one byte at a time. 

I embody wellness: yogi (200-hour Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga Teacher), mindfulness maven (trained in Jon Kabat-Zinn's Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction and Kristen Neff's Mindful Self-Compassion), dance diva (salsa, west coast swing), exercise enthusiast and instructor (pole walking, bone fitness, diabetes, chronic disease and older adult exercise), and a health/life coach (120-hour Jay Shetty Certification School).

If you’d like to know more about my academic/professional background, here it is:

• Ph.D. in Behavioral Science & Health from the University of Toronto where I was an adjunct professor 
• Former National Cancer Institute of Canada postdoctoral fellow
• MS in Exercise and Health Studies (Miami University) 
• Bachelor of Physical Education (University of British Columbia)
• Worked at renowned hospitals, including University Health Network, the largest hospital-based research program in Canada
• Published in peer-reviewed journals
• Consulted to pharmaceutical companies and health organizations about the patient disease journey experience
• Professional speaker (virtual and in-person) for the meetings and hospitality industry, human resources, associations and workplaces.
