#2. Freda Marver

Freda believes that it’s not the job of a coach to tell you what to do but it is their job to assist you in discovering it yourself through different means. Sometimes through everyday happenings, your own inner voice is drowned out by the voices of those who are telling you what you need to do. This is not living the life you want and need; it’s just living.

Is a coach tough on their clients? Some are capable of that but prefer to take a gentle approach when coaching someone in their choices. If you are ready to succeed, take your career to a new level, or change the path you are currently on, Freda can be there with you on your journey.

Gracie knows how hard it is to find the job that you can work and enjoy doing it every day. She spent her career life trying to figure out what best worked for her. Whether it was landscaping or being a landlord for a non-profit management company, she was just not able to find what made her feel complete and satisfied with how she was making money.

She eventually learned the right way to search for the career she needed and wanted and now she wants to help as many people as she can find their career. When you enjoy going to work every day, it’s not just a job anymore.

With Gracie’s method, you will first learn how to identify and break through whatever is stopping you from staying on your path. You will also need to determine what you want to do before you begin your journey so you will have a clear picture of your goal.

You want to have more time to do things that you actually want to do instead of stressing over things that you don’t want to do. You need Gracie’s support through this process. She won’t judge, she won’t make you feel bad about yourself. She will lift you up and give you confidence.
