ICFSFL Coach’s Corner

Helena Gonzalez came to coaching after a few years of practicing law and discovering that she "didn't want to measure success by six-minute increments." She decided to move behind the scenes, and now she works internally as a professional development and talent management in a private law firm, where part of her job is  coaching lawyers to improve their performance and wellbeing. But it wasn't an easy transition, and in this episode of the Coach's Corner, Helena will tell us about wrestling with her internal belief systems -- and her parents' coming to grips with her career transition away from practicing law.You can connect with Helena on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/in/helenamgonzalez/And for more about Eric Goeres, the host of this episode, visit: https://www.ericgoeres.com/

Today, we’re speaking with ICF master certified coach Phyllis Sisenwine, a pioneering business coach who got into the profession 25 years ago — and is still in it today. Her practice is centered around a simple but powerful business concept: She is the coach for lawyers. And in our chat, Phyllis takes us through some of the most powerful and prolific business, sales, and marketing tactics that have built her business. We also talk about coaching skills, such as the profound impact that comes from the use of silence, and the three best questions a coach can ask: “Where do you want to go? What’s getting in the way? How can I be helpful?” Please welcome Phyllis Sisenwine, MCC, to this episode of the Coach's Corner Podcast.You can find Phyllis here: https://thelawyerscoach.com/ or here https://www.linkedin.com/in/phyllissisenwine/And, you can find more about our host, Eric Goeres, PCC, here https://www.ericgoeres.com/ and here https://www.linkedin.com/in/ericgoeres/And, of course, more about ICF South Florida: https://www.icfsouthflorida.org/

In today’s episode, we’re talking with Annette Goodman, who helps clients make the most of themselves and their careers. Anette works with clients of all ages, but specializes in working with those in the earlier stages of their careers — the 20 and 30 somethings, feeling that the sooner that someone enters into the coaching process, the more the coaching can help. We also get into neuroplasticity, the stories we tall ourselves, and the options we have to rewire the way we think — and how a two-minute acknowledgement of how the brain works, can bring about change almost immediately. Join us as we endeavor to feel differently, think differently and hopefully, do differently — with our guest, coach Annette Goodman.You can find more about Annette Goodman here: https://www.annettegoodman.com/ and here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/annettegoodmanny/And, you can find out more about the Coach's Corner host, Eric Goeres, PCC, here: https://www.ericgoeres.com/ and here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ericgoeres/
