Shirley's Journey
One Woman's Experience of Life Coaching with Lawrence Carroll
"I am a wife, a mother of three teenagers and a math teacher in high school. I had three coaching sessions with Lawrence Carroll over three weeks before the end of December. I did not know what to expect but was willing to participate and see where it would lead. Each one was a unique experience that allowed me to explore the depths of my heart and mind. During each session Mr. Carroll would read my feelings and gently guide me in the direction that he felt was best. He also assigned me homework each time to help me focus on the benefit of the coaching session I just had.
I entered the first session with apprehension, as I had never done anything like this. However I followed Mr. Carroll’s direction and had an open mind. By the end of the first session I left with my heart much lighter, contemplating his words that beautifully summarized my concerns at this time in my life. I had never verbalized these concerns before or was even aware of them but unbeknownst to me they weighed heavily on my heart. Finally recognizing these concerns, saying them out loud, and contemplating them made me feel happier. I was even able to share my concerns with my husband.
As I entered the second session, Mr. Carroll said that I seemed in a lighter happier mood, and I was. Mr. Carroll led me through a visualization meditation and helped me describe the weights that tied me down. As I proceeded down a slow drifting shallow river I talked about the weights I had and visualized them being tossed into the water. The last five minutes we entered a more personal discussion on another area of concern with me. It felt good to remove the weights.
At my last session, Mr. Carroll had me explore areas that are of a concern to me that I want to work on in the future. I could pin point several areas that concerned me and we explored each one for a while before having me pick the one that was the most important to me at that time. The area that we focused on was somewhat related to my discoveries in my first session. We explored many facets of this concern and he even recommended a book for me to read. We became so entrenched and enthralled with the coaching and discussions that we worked for an additional hour without even realizing it. Time really did fly during that coaching session.
I really enjoyed and found the coaching sessions with Mr. Carroll greatly beneficial. He helped me to identify what was heavy on my heart, what concerns weighed me down, and a focus for me to have as I go into the New Year. I am very glad that I had the coaching sessions with Mr. Carroll and will have my son work with him. I recommend Lawrence as a caring professional coach who goes the extra mile with his clients."
