Women typically ask for my guidance when they're feeling any one of the following, or a combination of the following:

• Increased anxiety and/or stress levels
• Low energy levels
• Decreasing/low libido
• Struggling with spouse's inner / emotional withdrawal
• Feelings of loneliness or emptiness
• Physical stresses such as nagging headaches, back pain, neck pain, etc
• Hormonal fluctuations
• Weight gain
• Lack of self-esteem or self-worth
• Work/Life imbalances
• Experiencing difficulty in raising kids/teens in this 'new world'

Men usually find it tougher to open up (we can thank our societal and cultural upbringing for that), but here's what the majority of my male clients are experiencing when they come to me:

• They feel they already have a good life, but are missing a GREAT life
• They want to place a bigger focus on themselves as humans and men, and less on their businesses
• Feeling overwhelmed and/or overly stressed about always having to "be the breadwinner"
• Looking for techniques to help them manage their lives in a holistic sense: stress levels, relationships (family, partner, etc), energy levels and goal mastery + motivational levels
• Starting to experience the 'traditional middle age effects', such as (but not limited to) the following:
• Waking up between 1am - 3am and not being able to get back to sleep
• Weight gain (especially around the middle)
• Erectile dysfunction and/or lowered libido
• Increased blood pressure and cholesterol
• Not finding time to exercise
• Increased blood sugar levels and insulin resistance (even diabetes)
• Increased alcohol consumption as a coping method
• Increased dissatisfaction with the 'home life'
• Increased borrowing of money to maintain 'the lifestyle' (eg. expanded credit card debt, remortgaging of bonds, etc)

Understandably, a large number of single moms are a regular feature in my coaching calendar. These ladies typically come to me feeling any (or all) of the following:

• Feeling totally overwhelmed
• Feeling lost about what to do next / hopeless
• Financially strained
• Highly anxious, often depressed
• Sleep deprived and exhausted
• Sick and tired of on-going conflicts with the ex
• Unsuccessfully coping with past or present mental/emotional/physical abuse
• Feelings of guilt and shame
• Feeling like there's just never enough time to get everything done
