WHAT IS COACHING?

Coaching is about closing the gap to where you want to be. It's about addressing barriers that are preventing you from achieving your objectives, your goals, your dreams. 

Am I coachable? If you are unhappy about your situation AND actively seek success in reaching a desired outcome, you are coachable! If you don't want it bad enough (or it doesn't hurt bad enough), it will be extra challenging for you to put in the hard work to create a significant change in your life.

The Cornerstones of Coaching

1

Coaching is for determined individuals who seek success in improving areas of their lives such as career, relationships, health and personal development. It's very different from psychotherapy or counseling.

2

Accountability is essential in coaching. Coaching systems help clients stay responsible to themselves and their coach. Regular check-ins keep clients on track.

3

Regardless of the type of coach specialization (life, career, wellness, relationships, health, performance, business, etc.), professional coaches follow a 3 Step Coaching System to help clients reach their goals.

Unpack

Help clients identify achievable goals, action steps and roadblocks

Organize

Help clients develop feasible systems to achieve their goals

Support

Follow up, empower, motivate and keep client on track and accountable towards action steps and goals

The Life Wellness Coaching System created by David Ito is based on his personal and professional experience over the last 30 years. It combines life coaching - as described above - with his background in holistic wellness and longevity coaching.

Under this holistic coaching system, regardless of the client's specific goals, we use the 'big picture' approach towards coaching. Because all aspects of our lives are interconnected (physically, emotionally, energetically, mentally, spiritually), we see roadblocks (fears, limiting beliefs, disabling habits, etc.) often appearing in multiple areas of our lives.

By identifying the client's roadblocks and where they appear in other areas in life, we find ways to work around the roadblocks - or even eliminate them  - so the client can make progress towards the desired outcomes.

Coach David Ito works primarily, but not exclusively, with men 50+ from the GBTQi+ community.
