Q: What if I have already taken the CliftonStrengths assessment?
A: Great! If it’s been several years since you’ve taken the assessment, you are welcome to use the assessment provided in your package to retake it for updated results. You can also share the assessment with a friend or family member for their own Strengths journey. If you prefer to keep your existing results, I will give you a $10 Amazon gift card instead.
Q: What happens during the 1-on-1 coaching calls?
A: Great question! The goal of Strengths-based coaching is to help people name (identify and understand) their Strengths, Claim (own and analyze) those Strengths, and Aim (create a tactical and strategic plan) those Strengths toward their goals or obstacles. Sometimes it takes a mindset shift, and sometimes it is simply having an objective conversation with someone that has your best interests in mind (that’s me!) to help you identify the achievable path to get what you want in life. During our calls, we’ll spend about 45 minutes with in-depth conversation to discuss your Strengths and identify the important questions, obstacles, and goals on your mind. The last 15 minutes will be to create an action plan and identify takeaways for you to apply what we’ve discussed. Your success is my goal!
Q: How long do I have to use my coaching sessions I’ve purchased?
A: You have 3 months from your purchase date to complete your coaching sessions. Ideally we would chat at least once a month until your sessions are complete so we keep the momentum up and the mindset fresh. However I want to give you flexibility and buffer because sometimes life gets hectic.
Q: Tell me more about this Strengths Assessment. What does it do for me?
A: The Gallup CliftonStrengths assessment is a computer-based, timed assessment of 177 questions currently that takes about 1 hour (or less) to complete at your convenience (you just need to complete it at least 48 hours before our first coaching session). The assessment measures your natural patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving and provides insight into your existing, innate talents while categorizing that information into the 34 CliftonStrengths Themes. And you know what’s cool? There is roughly a 1 in 33 million chance that anyone in the world will have the same top 5 talent themes in the same order as you. YOU are unique, and that’s a beautiful and exciting thing! More information about the assessment can be found here.
Q: Hmm, but I’m an analytical person. What’s the science and data behind Strengths and its success?
A: The science behind Strengths was started through research by psychologist Don Clifton in 1949. This means that the assessment has over 60 years of science and analysis behind it. And to date, over 23 million (and counting) people have taken the assessment which helps drive and further validate the research over time. More information on the science and success metrics can be found here.
Q: How do I schedule my purchased coaching sessions with you?
A: Once you purchase a package from me, you will receive a link to my calendar of availability. You can schedule at least 2 months out at any time. Please note: I currently work a full-time job like many of you so my coaching availability will typically be evenings and weekends.
Q: Why should I pick Princess as my Strengths Coach?
A: I love to mix positivity with passion and purpose. I have grown up always wanting to help people be their best selves. We live in a world where there’s honestly a lot of ‘noise.’ From what we see online and on social media, the world either looks perfect for some or devastating for others. There is so much in between and so much behind the eyes of each and every person. I want to make the world a better place, and it starts one person at a time. If I can help YOU wake up feeling pumped and motivated to attain your goals, if I can help you see how unique your are with valid contributions, or if I can help you find a realistic and positive way to overcome an obstacle, then that fills me with more joy than you know. Let’s work together, and see how we help you win!
