Are You Willing to Stretch?

Since 2005, I have been a personal business coach in The Woodlands. Whether you are in The Woodlands, another state or a foreign country, all business coaching is personal. Good business coaching is always about a person or persons, in the cases where I collaborate with and support teams.
Today, there are many different types of coaches who can fill various needs. There are health coaches, financial coaches, life coaches and does include some aspects of as well as coaching in the other disciplines the list goes on and on. Regardless of the type of coach you are, all business coaching self-improvement business coaching, self-improvement coaching or as some call it, personal development business coaching or personal development coaching.

Preparation, Failure, Opportunity
