Our Goal

My intention as your coach is to get you to explore ALL the options with you, before making those big decisions and then help you structure your approach and plans carefully. From should you stay in the relationship and make it work, right through to separating amicably – with clear, calm communication and effective conflict management, to help you be successful with your approach and outcomes. The goal of my coaching is to help clients unlearn unwanted reactions and thoughts and help them to learn new healthier ways to think, react and communication better. Providing practical and emotional support to help you get clarity and peace of mind you are doing what is best for yourself and your wider family/community. Whist holding you accountable as we walk the path together to success.

Decision making

Gain greater confidence and resilience in the ability to make better decisions for your own future and independence, and the future of your children and family as a whole. As well as exploring all the options available to your unique situation and family dynamic, and help you rebuild yourself, your life, your future – together or apart.

Co-parenting

Develop better communication skills and improved relationships with your partner as parents and co-parents. You will be much better equipped for the challenge of single parenting and/or co-parenting with coaching tools such as parenting plans and shared expenses, to gain some certainty for the whole family unit to succeed in raising happy well supported children.

Future Planning

Put plans in place by forward focusing and thinking more positively about your future together or apart. Brainstorming ideas with your coach as your sounding board to get the best outcome possible for all. Having a clear plan in place to work on at a pace that makes things achievable. Planning and information gathering to prepare you for legal meetings, mediations, co-parenting discussions, future relationships - by doing this it will help you avoid the pitfalls and withhold some dignity in the process. You don’t know what you don’t know, let Kimberlee guide you towards success.

Systems

Putting in place budgets, parenting plans, your ideal amicable separation agreements, with your coach or other experts needed to make your future less stressful and more cohesive, so you can focus on the important aspects of your life once again.

Mindset

Lessen your overwhelm and feelings of stress, in a safe supportive space, by getting help with tools and techniques to keep your stress levels as low as possible in this process, by continuously looking at your overall mindset, health and wellbeing. Your coach will give you the emotional and practical support needed to improve mindset for not only yourself but your spouse and children also, for more positive outcomes for the family unit.

Become more positive about the future and where life can take you as a single person, dating and in a new relationship, or as a couple co-parenting a family no matter what, along with tools and tips to thrive as a single parent household. Right through to rebuilding your career path with a focus on career and life coaching, blending families, life post-divorce and more.

Referral network

As your coach I have a vast array of experts to refer clients to as needed, from family lawyers, mediators, financial experts, counsellors, real estate agents and more. I help you gather resources and information required for each expert before sending you off for advice, so you are well equipped with questions, concerns and focused on your needs, to help save you time and money.
