Hi . . .

I have a question for you. 

• When was the last time you focused on what is truly meaningful to you?

I know how busy your life is, especially these days.  Life does seem to keep moving faster, sometimes faster than you can keep up. Time for yourself or your family is easily strained, and you might wonder, “Is this It? Do I need to settle for just getting by?” Life can bring changes so fast that you may feel confronted with a future that is feeling too uncertain.  

Even when doing your best, living in uncertainty is difficult and you may find yourself becoming cynical, impatient, fearful, angry, defensive or anxious. In times of economic downturns and other external limiting factors, you may feel stuck in your personal or professional life.

Imagine . . .

• Living a balanced life: work, self-care, relationships, play, finances, family
• Reducing your stress and energizing yourself with simple self-care practices you caneasily weave into your daily routine
• Navigating major life choices in a focused, healthy and supported way
• Utilizing your strengths more effectively

If you now. . .

• Experience your future being uncertain, unclear, and overwhelming at times 
• Feel stuck in your personal or professional life and wonder if it’s time for a change 
• Think your life is moving too fast and out of control 
• Are numbing yourself with alcohol or food to avoid facing what’s really going on 
• Want to accomplish more with your life but are not quite sure what or how  
• Wish someone would show you a way to deal more effectively with life’s challenges so that you could live the life you are meant to live . . . 

What if I told you …

In just 16 weeks you can be well on your way to living your life focused and on purpose. You will learn effective tools you can use immediately and also in the future, and overall you’ll find yourself enjoying a more balanced and fulfilled life.

Join The Power of Focus Teleclass to learn tools and get support in finding a way to live your life fully. We will be using the renowned Circle o f Life™ process to help you get headed in the direction you would like to go. You can achieve your dreams.

Yes, it’s true . . .

Hi, I am Marlene Lockwood of Springboard Transition Coaching

I work with people whose lives are in transition to support them in redefining their life and to realize a new, joyful and abundant way of living. As human beings we thrive on routine and sameness, and yet life continually changes.

The answers to life’s transitions are already there within you. Know that the external world is NOT the driving force in your life’s transitions. Rather, it’s your inside free will that will prevail!

I challenge you to ask yourself: “What would it be like to discover the power within, and do only what brings me joy and success on a daily basis?”

As individuals or in small groups I support you through the step by step process of shaping the life you desire. I support you in seeing more clearly the various choices and options before you.

We work together to create an action plan to achieve your goals. I support you each step of the way and help you create an accountability network that encourages you as you continue to move forward each and every day.

I enjoy working with each person honoring the rich tapestry of lives that cross my path. I frequently here from my clients that they have become stronger, wiser and are moving forward with clear goals creating life they have always wanted.

I too have experienced significant change in my life.

During one long year in my life I had a long term marriage end; my last child left home, my mother passed away and I changed jobs.  I have walked in your shoes and I know the personal challenges change can bring.  I moved forward with the help of a group and a coach to create a new exciting and dynamic life. And you can too.

I rely on this personal experience plus my professional coaching and advanced training to shape the structure of my coaching programs and to meet the needs of my clients. I am a certified health and wellness coach and a certified professional facilitator.

The Power of Focus teleclass

Learn a proven approach to life enrichment where you will be supported to move beyond your fears and limitations toward living a life that is truly rich and meaningful to you. 

It’s time to turn things around!

I invite you to enthusiastically step on the pathway

I will assist you in a clear, step-by-step process of identifying,

Those who have already attended can tell you best what the Power of Focus is about and what you can expect.

I have listed common challenges and then linked them to real life results.

Stress can show up in many ways. Sometimes we hear from our clients that they just are not happy with how their life is working and are unclear what to do first to bring some sanity back into their lives. In The Power of Focus series, we will support you to make skillful life changes and to begin to take the steps necessary to move forward successfully.

Bill wanted us to share this with you. “When I began your program I was stuck in a funk and just generally feeling dissatisfaction in several areas of my life.  Marlene’s empathy and wisdom and the powerful effectiveness of the methods helped me to identify and focus on the key issues then to make changes in the areas most important for me to address first.  My life has been revitalized. Thank you," - Bill

Our world is full of change and at times you can experience real chaos in your own life and sometimes you might even feel like it is being done to you. I want you to have the tools to direct your own life and to be able to move unencumbered toward your goals.

One of the greatest challenges...

 … we face is living a happy, healthy, peaceful life - one that is more balanced, less stressed and more fulfilled – while juggling the demands of daily life.

The Circle of Life™ was created not only to address these greatest challenges but also to create a path for moving forward in your life. 

The Circle of Life™ is a breakthrough process that is the ultimate in personal empowerment and self-care.

Sometimes you can feel overwhelmed by external circumstances. There is so much going on that you feel at loss about where to start.  Your goals are not clear or you see them as just too big to tackle and you procrastinate.  However, focused small steps have a compounding factor that eventually leads to much larger results than when we try to do too much at once.

"We would accomplish many more things
if we did not think of them as impossible"
- Vince Lombardi

There is only so much of life we can control.  Throughout life you are faced with difficult changes and many challenges.  In this program you will be supported to handle major life choices in a focused, healthy and supported way.

Elizabeth told us this. “I attended the Circle during a time that my life was at a “split in the road.”  I was separated from my husband, I questioned the financial security of my work, I was almost 60 and had no idea where I was going.  The support of the group, Marlene’s gentle but strong guidance and the weekly format became a touch stone of sanity for me.  Those meetings began a change in me that has not stopped. I am so grateful.” ~ Elizabeth

I will support you in defining a direction that is truly meaningful to you. Once you start taking well thought out actions, even small steps, to confront the challenges you are experiencing, things can and will change for you. You’ll be amazed at just how quickly it can happen!

“It may just be that a true wake-up call creates a
true shift in consciousness. My wake-up call
left me no choice. I had to make dramatic changes.”
-Cheryl Richardson

Frequently I hear clients say things like this:

It’s not necessary to stay in any of the above states.  In fact, history shows that challenging times actually gives you a powerful opportunity to reconnect with your passion and to refocus your life journey. 

Change can be used as a catalyst to become more aware of what is working in your life and what is not.   

Perhaps now is a good time to question how you spend your time and energy and if you are on the right path to achieve what you really want out of life.

By determining what you can let go of in your life, you create space for that which truly matters. You can be living a truly meaningful life, even in times of stress and change.  

You can turn it around!

Circle of Life™ Participants report benefits such as:

• Feeling more joy, passion and purpose in life
• Breaking through ‘stuck’ areas
• Lowered stress – greater well-being
• Ability to trust – and to follow their heart
• Living a more balanced life

Here is more about how the Power of Focus teleclass works.

It is a carefully and professionally designed pathway to personal improvement through a process that has proven effective for thousands of people in a wide array of contexts.

I work with many tools to add richness to the program and to ensure each participant has the opportunity to become empowered individuals and supported in their quest for greater health, vitality, productivity, purpose, and joy.

As coach, I honor the pace that is right for you so that your accomplishments are natural and positive rather than forced or stress inducing.  You will be supported to:

• Acknowledge your strengths
• Identify life areas that you would like to improve
• Recognize and work through challenges
• Clarify intentions and manifest them
• Establish and attain realistic goals through manageable action steps
• Re-evaluate and revise to achieve your goals
• Leverage the experience, resources and energy of the group
• Enjoy the playful exploration that is part of the journey

What Makes The Power of Focus Teleclass Effective?

Self Care is the core essence of The Power of Focus teleclass. What we know, and research supports, is that people who take care of themselves create health, wealth, love, and life satisfaction – even when they have tremendous challenges to overcome.

Here is how I define Self-Care . . . Using your ability to direct and manage your health and well-being in all aspects of your life, and creating what you want for your life by taking charge of and responsibility for your thoughts, life choices and actions.

                      You must be the one and only one directing your own life.

A Powerful Testimony

I will help you assess your level of Self-Care in all aspects of your life, including exercise, nutrition, stress mastery, relationships, finances, work, play, health care, environment, life purpose, self esteem and spirituality.

Listen to what Chris has to say. "I gained a much better under- standing of the importance of self-care. I learned how to schedule simple, but effective self-care methods into my life that have made a world of difference to how I experience life." ~ Chris

Envision Self Care as a radiant sun . . .  illuminating all aspects of your life with energy.  Taking time for your Self Care positively affects the quality of your life and empowers you to meet your goals.  Operating from a Self-Care mind set (i.e. caring for yourself) no matter what goals you are working toward is what drives the Circle of Life process and makes it so effective.

The coaching opportunity

Coaching is an opportunity to assist you in realizing your most important goals, and group coaching adds the wisdom of the group as well as support, accountability and camaraderie. You will be supported to realize greater success, balance and life fulfillment.  People from all walks of life now are benefitting from coaching. And, as important as business goals are, it is our "inner being" that influences our successes, regardless of profession. 

Some things to be clear about

Because it is critical to your success I want to be sure we are all on the same page. First of all, this course does not answer all problems or free you from life challenges forever, of course you know that. Life challenges and transitions will continue throughout your life; however, these tools will give you a foundation from which to work through your current and future challenges and will support you in achieving the success you desire.

Research, development and much personal work has gone in to form the Power of Focus program.  I have dedicated countless hours and energy in preparing this teleclass series.

It is my true labor of love, an accumulation of years of work, a Masters degree plus hundreds of hours working with clients, reading, advanced seminars, and the list goes on. 

Now enrolling for the May 5, 2010 program – sign-up below

Your Investment

I have priced this 16 week teleclass program very affordably because I want you to

experience empowerment and success.

The cost of the program is just the fraction of the cost of working with either of us privately  . . . our private one-on-one clients would pay over $2,000 for the same material.

The cost of the program is $497. When you choose to pay in advance for the entire 16 week program you invest just $422. This is a $75 dollar savings!  

You may also pay in two installments ($249 and $248) with the final payment due by June 5th.

To ensure personal connection and program quality I limit the class size to just 20 participants.

I have also scheduled the time so that you have one week each month to do catch-up work.   I want to do my part to support your Self-Care – (and mine!)

	We were delighted to hear Mary say: “I increased my self-awareness and self-esteem and reached out and found new friends, new ideas, and new opportunities.” ~ Mary
