Amchara Soul Coaching

Amchara is an old Celtic word meaning the cherished soul companion, the parent of ones best self, trusted intimate of ones secrets, reflection of one’s truest spirit.

You will seek Amchara Soul Coaching because you have a longing to do the inner work of profound depth, exploring territories you speak to few others about. You may feel that something is missing, or lost, or that there is more meaning to be discovered in your life’s expression. You may feel that you are not really living in your entirety. Your expressions have been too small or safe. Or that you have walked a strong and determined career path with great success, only to discover that a great career simply is not it.

Positive Deviants are likely to have a form of Amchara Soul Coach in their lives, simply because they have recognised that it is the only way to stay true to their life-by standing in a conversation that allows them clear sight of who they are and why they do what they do.

With Christine as your Amchara Soul Coach, you will find a sacred and safe place to dialogue on a regular basis, a place you can express all of your self, your fears, smallness, daring, joy, passion, plans, experiences, troubles, longings. When ever you step into the conversation with your Amchara Soul Coach, you immediately be in a space where you are seen in more truth than in most other relationships. Your Amchara Soul Coach will not allow you to be any less than the fullest expression of you. She will challenge your limited and small thinking and being, ask you to put aside childish behaviours, inspire you to take action where you know you need to, explore questions you have been seeking answers to, insist on the fullest expression in the world of you true self, ask from you your highest level of integrity. There will also be moments when your Amchara Soul Coach will teach you new ways to look at the world, provide you with models and tools that may assist your journey, share stories to promote discovery and understanding.

While the space created for your Amchara Soul Coaching is sacred, it will not always be easy. There will be moments when you are asked to do that which you are afraid to do, or are denying, yet know somewhere deep, you must do.

By its very nature, Amchara Soul Coaching is a long term relationship. It is built around a Socratic dialogical process, and is built through a deep understanding of self. At its best, it is always evolving and growing, as you and the Amchara Soul Coach grows and evolves. It is never static, never redundant and certainly not co-dependent. Amchara Soul Coaching expresses the power of synergy. One plus one equals much more than two. It employs the principle of leverage. You will be more, do more, express more, when you have the right people on your personal team, including your Amchara Coach.

In the corporate world, Amchara Soul Coaching is for senior executives who express themselves in the world as Positive Deviants, and seek to be ever evolving the depths of who they are to continue to serve their people and their company in the highest possible way.

If you are in senior HR and are looking for personal development work of your exceptional senior executive talent, the people who do express strong Positive Deviant tendencies, and you would like to offer them the kind of personal development work that is not found in any traditional programs, then do consider this as the option. While the ROI is hard to measure in concrete terms, the kinds of outcomes you will expect from Amchara Soul Coaching is that your executive will become more congruent, clear, aligned, grounded, able to inspire people to do extra-ordinary things, speak with resonant truth, see future directions with great foresight, step above power plays and politics, forge pathways that attract incredible people to do above ordinary things and leave a legacy that will motivate and inspire others.

Are you suited to Amchara Coaching?

You will be going through a mid life crisis of sorts (even if you are 25), or aware that you are questioning your motivations - “why you do what you do and for what purpose?” You have a sense that something is missing, not right, upside down. Your exterior superficial life may look fabulous, but you can feel the cracks forming.This is a time for deep reflection, asking the biggest questions you are able to, and finding a place within you that is seeking expression and recognition. At the same time, Amchara Soul Coaching is highly practical. Together we create action in the real world, so at times our coaching is about day to day activities. You may simply long to be in regular dialogue with someone who asks more of you than you do.At the least, you want to be in a regular dialogue with a trusted confidant who has only your highest interests as the agenda.

This is by its very nature, a one on one relationship, and requires a minimum monthly meeting. We often start with an extended meeting in a retreat setting, utilising the natural environment to question, explore, discover and uncover.

Coaching includes a work book, additional support materials, email and brief phone calls between scheduled sessions and all session recorded for review.

1. Email or call Christine McDougall requesting an interview for Amchara Soul Coaching.

2. We will set up a time for a telephone meeting to discuss your unique requirements, and to be sure we have a strong match so our work together will be extraordinary. This meeting is at no charge. It is essential that there is an evident strong match, and the basis for deep trust and mutual respect.

3. We may schedule an appointment face to face at this time, depending on your requirements and logistics. Often our first session is for a day or half day in a retreat type setting.

4. Once we have agreed to proceed, we will consider frequency, meeting times, and then determine the cost, based on your needs and requirements and the coach’s suggestions.

5. You will be asked to complete some simple forms and to make your initial payment (for large companies we will issue the invoice at commencement and agree to payment terms). Generally these forms take 5 to 10 minutes to complete.

6. We may agree to do some prework assessments, which can include shadowing you for a period of time to get to see how you interact at work and how people respond to you.

7. We also agree to the timing of review sessions- the frequency of reviews, who needs to be involved etc.

8. We set a date to get started, and off we go.

9. Quite often we find that spending a day in a retreat based setting is an extremely powerful addition to the process. This naturally occurs every six months or so, or whenever major transitions are occurring.
