Hi, I’m Garrett, a National Board-Certified Coach. Over the past decade, I’ve found that leaders who develop their leadership style based on the science of well-being and their unique needs, strengths, and passions burnout less and achieve more sustainable success.

FAQs

What makes VAST coaching different?

Our clients are tired of traditional top-down one-size-fits-all leadership models. They want an approach that custom tailored to leverage their unique needs, strengths and passions. Our clients appreciate our adaptive approach and the insights they gain from the robust self-assessment opportunities.

What can I expect to achieve from the VAST Coaching program?

By participating in the VAST coaching program, you will enhance your leadership skills, develop your emotional intelligence, and learn to mitigate chronic stress. You'll be able to achieve more from your team with less emotional labor, and accomplish your personal and professional goals without sacrificing your Well-being.

Is VAST coaching program an ideal fit for me?

Are you ambitious and burnout? Are you responsible for driving organizational achievements? Are you looking to grow personally and professionally? Are you frustrated by common self-care advice? Are you looking for a significant shift in how you lead? Are you looking for sustainable success that doesn’t require you to sacrifice your health, wealth or happiness? If answered yes to any of these then you are in the right place.

How is the coaching structured to fit my busy schedule?

Our coaching program is designed with flexibility in mind, offering a mix of virtual sessions, on demand resources, and personalized support. We work with you to create a customized program that works with your availability so you have the resources you need without burdening your current schedule.

I’ve been able to manage on my own. Do I really need coaching?

You’ve been successful, but coaching is not about need. It's about achieving better results with less effort, stress, and compromises. If you've been white-knuckling it through the day or faking it till you make it eventually your coping strategies will only take you so far. Coaching offers an opportunity to further leverage what is working and identify and accommodate what is not.

Can I feel safe enough personally and professionally to be vulnerable with my Coach?

We understand that having a place to be vulnerable is a component of Well-being. Coaching requires a theraputic alliance to be effective. You're always in control of what you share, and we pride ourselves on maintaining confidentiality to support you in your growth in a way that feels right for you.
