About The Coach - me!
Kellie Sagadore
I was born on the mainland of British Columbia in 1970 and raised at Cordero Lodge on the coast of British Columbia since 1979.
I have suffered with an eating disorder called Bulimia Nervosa since I was 17, but have been a recovered Bulimic since 1998. During my recovery I took many different paths and have learned so many new things about myself, the first thing being that only I can help myself. I worked hard and still am working hard to stay focused and achieve new goals I have set for myself. I am married now, and a mom of two boys.
I had waited for many loved ones and friends to tell me what I needed to do. Sometimes I wanted them to change their behavior so that the process of healing wouldn't be so painful. I needed to look within myself to really see where I wanted to go and what I was going to do with my life. For starters, I needed to heal feelings and let go of the past. It was a lot of work, but well worth it!
I also realized that when I "assume" I "make an ass out of you and me" (ASS-U-ME). Let's be honest here. Assuming means we don't have all the information; we fill in the blank spots with our opinions and biases, solving nothing. It seems to me that I stopped communicating effectively. I had help in many different paths and in many different forms however, nothing was setting in.
Listening more clearly and actually hearing what others are saying was the source of a lot of useful information, helping me to make decisions that in turn, started to take me where I wanted to go.
...and that is right here!!!! I took the Saskatchewan New Start Life Skills Coach Certificate training course in Duncan British Columbia, through Malaspina College. Please click to view our goals. If I am able to share with you a part of what I learned then we all will be the better for it.
Life Skills and personal coaching offers wonderful new ways of looking at your life and encourage you to be your authentic self.
The Changeways Coaching Goals
The typical result of life skills coaching is performance or goal-directed success with emphasis on taking action (through improved motivation and goal setting skills) and sustaining the changes over time using learned techniques that improve decision making skills and promote positive thinking.
