What is Coaching?

The International Coach Federation (ICF) defines coaching as partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential. Coaches honor the client as the expert in his or her life and work and believe every client is creative, resourceful and whole. Standing on this foundation, the coach's responsibility is to:

  • Discover, clarify, and align with what the client wants to achieve

  • Encourage client self-discovery

  • Elicit client-generated solutions and strategies

  • Hold the client responsible and accountable

This process helps clients dramatically improve their outlook on work and life, while improving their leadership skills and unlocking their potential.

Prof. Darius Ajai Frasure MFA, MA, EBC, acc

Coaching

I coach leaders and teams that need help creating sustainability and wellness in their lives and work.

About Me:

I envision a world where people are fully present with themselves and others. In this world, love, joy, and peace characterize the experiences of all people.

I help people create, nurture, and develop sustainable practices for engaging themselves and others personally and professionally. I cultivate awareness in my clients through evidence-based practices, intuition, and creativity. My clients learn to see opportunities where they only see limitations, and they learn practical methods for maintaining the state of their best selves!
