3. Build a compelling story arc
I have been a coaching client of Dr. Maureen Mc Intosh for just over one month and wow…the value I have received thus far is beyond words!Her coaching sessions helped me to clarify my vision and purpose; guided me in developing my marketing statement; assisted me in clearly articulating what I want to be known for and challenged me to dig deep within and discover my strengths and weaknesses.

4. Develop three transformational insights
★★★★★
Our one-to-one coaching sessions have called out hidden truths in and about me. It has helped me to exit from my hiding, and walked me through the process of marrying what I say with who I am (not who I pretend to be). Taking that deep dive and going within, I got a clearer picture of who I am, and I learned to celebrate that and got help with to implement strategy to develop myself in areas where I needed or wanted.

5. Strengthen voice, presence, and stagecraft
I am just giving God thanks for giving me access to you. I feel like the woman at the well who went to the entire city to tell the people to come see the man she met. You are not ordinary. You are extraordinary with an extraordinary grace. You said you were mentored by the Late Myles Munro and I feel you are carrying some of his mantles. You are large and gifted. I have never met anyone with so many areas of grace. I don’t know of many who has the grace to...do all the things you do...you are a doorway to great treasures.
