The Four Pillars of Build Your Light Coaching:
Four specific areas stand out in the research as best in helping people upgrade self belief.
1. Story
Identifying the roots of your self belief, i.e. your personal history, helps you challenge, and grow beyond, the limiting beliefs holding you to your past.
2. Strengths and Values
Identifying your unique God given abilities, plus your values, clarifies what you do best and the good you stand for. This knowledge boosts your self belief, and empowers you to take positive action.
3. Self Compassion
People in general do not do self compassion well. Yet it has been identified as one of the most powerful ways to develop self belief.
4. Purpose
What is the good you were created to bring into the world?
If you had the opportunity to serve the greater good, what specifically would you do?
