Soul Coaching® provided the platform for a deep dive into her own personal and transformative growth. That led to a number of degrees and certifications, and more importantly, a new joyous and rewarding career helping others discover who they really are and to create a life in synchronicity with that vision.
The desire to transform oneself and synchronize ones personal and professional life is facilitated by learning a whole new vocabulary and navigating uncharted territory. The journey may start with the realization that it would be preferable to trust oneself rather than listen to the myriad of advise from others; parents, friends, siblings, the “Experts”, and the insidious ego. It moves away from ‘should’ towards ‘could’. It abandons routine in favor of awareness. Vicki has the dictionary, map, questions, sense of fun, and deep listening skills to assist. She brings in the language of metaphors and parables, the map of visualization, and little nudges. “Who is that chattering away in your head when you are not paying conscious attention? If she had a name, what would it be? If your words took form, what would it look like?” Visualizations can be much easier to manage and deal with than words. A pink porcupine reveals a soft cute side along with it’s pointed quills. Images can present a picture, which leads to a spot on your map, and then the words suggesting a direction. Above all, the gentle question, “What else?”.
Vicki understands that living ‘on purpose’ asks that we first learn to listen in silence to our self. Once we listen, we must learn to speak out loud what we want. She provides the safe, nonjudgmental space to do just that. Her Soul Coaching ® programs may be done in a group or individually. Transformative Coaching is usually on an individual basis. The Heroine’s Journey™ is taken in small groups. All of her programs have coaching sessions interspersed with personal field work. It is often the processing time between sessions when journaling or just sitting quietly in awareness gives rise to epiphanies, large and small. Vicki encourages communication when these ‘aha’ moments arise so they do not slip away.
In addition to her personal Soul Coaching ® and Transformative coaching practice, Vicki is the Director of the Transformative Life Coaching certification program and Executive Core Faculty for Sofia University, a private college focusing on transpersonal psychology with a spiritual orientation.
