What is Workplace Life Coaching?
Workplace Life Coaching is a process that aims to improve or change an aspect of your life you are not happy with by clarifying your goals, identifying the obstacles that are blocking you or holding you back and using powerful questions and techniques that will help set and shape strategies for overcoming your obstacles and achieving your goal.
What's the difference between Coaching and Counselling?
Coaching focuses more on the client’s current situation and drives the sessions paying special attention to the future by encouraging self-improvement and personal development. On the other hand, counselling is a form of talking therapy that assesses the person’s current situation and focuses on the past experiences that have determined the client’s struggles, studying and identifying coping mechanisms for the client to be able to move forward with their life.

Talking to a friend or family member is for free. Why should I pay to work with a coach?
It's great to be able to talk to your loved ones about what is in your mind, however most of the time we encounter corrections or judgements on how we should/shouldn't approach our situation without even considering all the factors. We are very mindful that we can be judged by our loved ones if we tell them the entire story or that , sometimes, we get shut down because they consider their issues are more important than yours.

This doesn’t happen with a life coach. A good life coach will not judge you, start talking about their own problems or tell you what to do – a good life coach will ask you questions and use different techniques to help you find out the best actions, strategies and goals for you, based on your own thoughts, feelings, obstacles and circumstances.

You will be the centre of the conversations, with no other agenda from your life coach than listening and exploring with you.
What am I expected to do?
Most people think that showing up to a coaching session is more than enough, but if you want to get the most of it you will have to be ready to talk about your thoughts and feelings; to answer my questions in an open and honest way and to take responsibility of your actions.

So… come prepared and think about what you want to achieve in every session – we will work on the how!

Change and improvement always require that extra effort that not everybody is keen to make. It is not easy (why should I lie to you?) but it will be worth it.
What should I expect/not expect?

You should expect

Questions that you may not dare asking to yourself
To be accountable for your own decisions and actions
Working hard on your goals – believe me, it is worth it!
A professional but approachable coach
Confidentiality (your secrets are safe with me!)
A strong focus on both your present and future
Results on the mid/long-run

You should not expect

Your coach waving a magic wand and sorting out your life or telling you what to do
Counselling, psychotherapy, or any mental health treatment
Any kind of judgement from your coach (not here for that!)
Homework – you are a responsible adult and you decide what to do and not to do
Talking about past experiences/issues for an entire session
Results straight away – coaching is not a sprint, it's a marathon
Will coaching work for me?

Coaching will work for you if you

are open to change and new ideas
take ownership of your actions
are ready to put some work to change/improve your life
don’t go defensive (again, I am not here to judge you!)
don’t keep any relevant information from your coach (if we don’t have all the facts we will never be able to tackle the entire issue – try to finish a puzzle with 3 missing pieces!)
Why should I work with Pilar?
I will listen to you actively and without any judgement and we will work together towards your strategy to achieve what you want. I care about people and I will not give up on you!

I will use examples that resonate with you, techniques that will help you move towards your objectives and I will ask you those questions you may not dare to ask yourself but that will be key to see things with a fresh perspective; all this always from an understanding and compassionate point of view: my priority is to create a safe space where you can open up, explore and dig deep into your thoughts and feelings.
How many coaching sessions will I need?
This will depend on your progress, how many goals you have and your availability.

For this reason I offer different packages with different amount of sessions each – you can always top up if you need to!

I also offer extra items to catch up and touch base between sessions, like a weekly 15mins phone call or the option to send me a couple of WhatsApp Voice Messages per week that will get their own reply.
I am currently seeing a mental health professional, can I also see a personal development coach?
Yes, as long as the mental health professional is aware of the fact that you are going to start seeing a life coach and is on board with it.
Is there any flexibility in lesson bookings? My schedule is crazy!
Of course, there are circumstances in life that don’t give us notice, so if this happens let’s talk!

I am very understanding and flexible, however I would appreciate a 24hr notice before a session, so we can re-schedule and I can plan my day ahead differently.
Where will the sessions take place?
My sessions usually take place online: via Zoom, Skype or Microsoft Teams however, as I am based in Sutton (South London) I am happy to travel to Central London.

Please bear in mind that if we need to rent a venue this will affect the final price of the session.
What languages can we take a session in?
English, Spanish or Catalan - you can choose the one you feel most comfortable with.
How can I pay?
You can pay via BACS or PayPal – please be aware that the prices are quoted in GBP, so please use the following currency convertor link: (https://www.xe.com/)
My company has offered to pay, can you invoice them for me?
Yes, I will need their details and I can issue an invoice for them with no problems.
