How Do The Coaching Circles Work
We’ll jump on Zoom together for 60 minutes and create a safe space for us to check in with each other on what’s working well and where we’re struggling to break free of our ‘good girl’ beliefs and embody our unique selves.
Based on the group’s needs and energy we will share evidence-based insights, practices and tools to help us learn and grow alongside each other.
Each call is different because we tailor it to the opportunities and challenges the group brings. This may include a focus on the ‘good girl’ beliefs that are keeping us stuck. It may be more about the ‘uniquely you’ skills we want more help to build. It could be both, or something completely unpredictable but greatly needed.
You’ll come away with clear a-has and tiny nudges you can immediately apply to help you build more self-compassion, secure attachment, and strengthen your self-leadership.
For privacy protection, the Coaching Circle calls are not recorded. However, following the call, we prepare a summary of the insights, practices, and tools that surfaced and provide this to all paid members.
During our time together we’ll use our FREE framework to explore your need by:
Feel it - we’ll unpack what your emotions are telling you.
Release it - we’ll get our body moving using breathwork, stretches, and anything else that calls to us to release or celebrate those feelings.
Experiment with it - we’ll get curious about what the science suggests and your intuition wants to try next.
Evolve it - we’ll get clear on the learning and growth opportunities can be found as you step forward.
You will leave our conversation having been compassionately heard and supported with resources and tools you can immediately apply.
If you want to have more time you are welcome to book a follow-up session.
Your Coach: Dr. Chelle McQuaid
From an early age, I was groomed to be a ‘good girl’. I expected nothing less than perfection when it came to my performance. I believed it was my responsibility to protect people from disappointment, pain, and suffering. I wanted to please everyone so people would only ever say nice things about me.
By the time I was thirty-four years old, I’d collected all the promised ‘good girl’ rewards: a loving family with two growing boys, a big global marketing career, financial security, good friends, a house full of nice things, and a passport full of stamps. And, I barely had the energy to get out of bed. No matter how hard I tried, it was never enough. I was never enough.
I began questioning everything I’d been taught. On whose terms and for whose benefit had I been living my life? I traced my scars of childhood sexual abuse, poverty, homelessness, domestic violence, crippling self-doubt and burnout, finally witnessing how my beliefs were keeping me stuck in these heartaches.
By the time I’d untangled all the story’s threads, I was fifty years old. Now I have a head full of grey hair. My body is starting to ache and sag. I am happily divorced. My children are leaving home. I no longer care about my ‘big’ career. And, I have the freedom and confidence to live life on my terms and for my benefit.
How? After completing a Masters in Applied Positive Psychology and a PhD in behavior change, my research taught me that striving for perfection is a fool’s errand. After more than a decade of teaching and coaching people in workplaces all over the world to thrive, I learned that trying to protect people comes at the cost of genuine connections. And as a self-confessed data nerd the numbers made it clear that pleasing others is pointless when we can’t find peace within ourselves.
Let me share the insights and tools to show you how.
Still have questions?
We always want to make sure we’re delivering value. If you’re not sure if our Coaching Circles are right for you, reach out and ask us about any questions or concerns you may have. We’ll do our best to answer them.
Please note: We are mindful that ‘girl’ and ‘woman’ are socially constructed ideas of gender that can fall painfully short of defining the fabulous complexity of who we each are. If these words resonate with part of how you have previously or currently identified yourself and you believe this coaching may help we’d love to hear from you.
