COACHING FOR FIT
COACHING FOR FIT
Embedded Files
Looking for your place in the world? Whether it’s wanting to feel like you know yourself, matching a job with your strengths, or moving into a new chapter with confidence - Fit coaching can help you appreciate who you are now (personality, values, passions, strengths, giftings, ambitions +) and provide a foundation for decision making that aligns with YOU.
Generally, this kind of coaching is a fit if you’re a self-starter who is a jacks of all types of things, able to adapt, lead or follow, are mostly independent, but work well with teams. You’re a little (or maybe a lot) tired of living someone else’s dream for your life or aren’t totally sure what you want out of life. Meaning is meaningful to you and you just need a partner for a little while to recenter on what makes you awesome, what matters to you, and wash away those peripheral expectations.
Who would you be working with?

My name is Janelle Carmichael! I fall into the sporty category, love laughing and connecting with people in a real, practical, and meaningful way.
I’m the spouse of a private practice therapist, a mental health group operations and credentialing director, collegiate athletic administration and coaching and a graphic designer and photographer. I enjoy other people’s animals and becoming a local in new places.

We look deeply at your personality, strengths, passions, giftings, and more - not just to look at them for funsies, but to get a clear picture of who you are so you can make choices (career and other) that give you life instead of take it from you.
The process is catered to each client because not everyone starts with the same understandings!
Maybe you're well versed in personality or strengths, but want to understand how you show up in the world.
Maybe you've never looked at anything you ACTUALLY like, you've just done what you're good at/what makes someone happy.
In our first session, we just talk about you. We'll get the scope of where you want to go and go from there! There's a wealth of understanding available on who you are, but we'll cut through the fluff and work with realistic goals in mind.
How do you even begin a shift like that?
How do you even begin a shift like that?
Starting coaching looks like a decision - a decision that "you're over this shit" and are open to something different. The rest is talking like the actual human you are, with me, another human, who actually cares about what's specific to you. There's no competition, ratings, deadlines (unless you make them), weird team dynamics, or managers that see you as a productivity horse.
I'm not here to tell you how to live your life - believe it or not, you DO have your own answers. Sometimes finding or reminding yourself of the things that matter or light you up IS the first step toward something different.
Together, we talk through where you are, who you are (a mix of conversation, assessments, and workbook), where you want to go and identify/work through the barriers in between. I love laughing, being real - like a real person who’s gone through hard stuff too - and getting down to what matters to you.
My coaching style is playfully direct, humor-infused, intentionally present, and logic/pattern driven. I'm observant, live to ask questions, and genuinely want to see you (and people in general) find what fits you.
Is coaching the same as counseling?
Is coaching the same as counseling?
Nope. Despite what some marketing or therapists may say, coaching and counseling can overlap in some areas like motivational interviewing/goal setting/forward thinking, but their trainings, requirements, and functions are different!
Coaching may be the best option for you if you're stuck, not sure what's next, or wanting to pivot to something that fits who you are: you're ready to get moving!
Counseling may be the best option for you if you're looking to work through traumas (family or historical), address relationship challenges, or have someone to walk through the "why's" of life. There's extensive training/education that goes into a provider being equipped to help people through these areas.
If you're still not sure, I'm happy to do a consult call to sift through whether coaching or counseling might serve you best at this time.
Here's a quick breakdown between the two & an explanation of coaching:
Choosing a coach (Q's to ask yourself)
Choosing a coach (Q's to ask yourself)
Coaching styles and niches are unique to the coach. Just like your preferences are unique to you!
When looking for a coach, the first impressions you have may feel judgmental, but they're not! It's information to pay attention to:
Is the coach "your kind of people"?
How do you connect with what you're reading?
How do you fit with their style?
How do their modalities/rates work for your life/schedule?
Please do take these points to heart when deciding if we're a good fit. This coaching partnership process is your first step in finding what fits you!

Most coaching programs will require a set of sessions or package purchases. I don't roll that way - I believe you know what you need, especially when it comes to personal development and answer finding. We'll keep on going until you have what you're looking for.
Shoot me an email and we'll schedule a free 15-minute consult to see about working together!
