What iSCoaching like?

I take all my influences, training, and experiences to distill what I do into “Soul Work.”

SOUL WORK is twofold.

1. Doing the inner work to transform limiting beliefs, stuck energy, and un-serving patterns.

   This helps you eliminate sabotaging habits, develop new ways of being, and navigate the complexities of life in ways that are more deeply meaningful and fulfilling and with more resourcefulness, creativity, and wisdom. You learn how to be more in contact with your True Authentic Self, what some might call your “Soul.”
   
   What this looks and feels like in a session is meditative, cathartic, and expansive—like a sigh of relief leading to clarity.

2. Doing the outer work of putting yourself out there, sharing your gifts, and making the impact you’re here to make.

   I believe we all have gifts to give the world, and how we do that is through our work. As Khalil Gibran said, “Work Is Love Made Visible.” As you connect more with your authentic self, you are able to share your love with others in the form of art, business, or service. I help you do the outer work you were designed to do—some might say, your “Soul’s work.”
   
   How this looks in a session is brainstorming, strategy, accountability—and feels enlivening & exciting.

“Lou is the real deal.”
‘‘Lou has played a pivotal role in finding my direction, and connection with myself. Lou’s knack of getting to the heart of my needs in each session has become such a valuable part of my journey. He has the gift of clearing the fog of uncertainty. I recommend Lou to anyone who needs to find some direction, find their gifts and even fine tune the ones they already have. Lou is the real deal.”
Carlos Militante, Musician & Sound Healer

“I have more confidence and a renewed sense of meaning and purpose.”
‘‘I was going through my life task driven instead of fully experiencing my feelings, connecting with others and being present.  Through coaching with Lou, I was able to identify the underlying sources for my disconnection and use personal tools Lou helped me develop to bring me back to joy and presence.  I have more confidence and a renewed sense of meaning and purpose.  I highly recommend coaching with Lou, I am grateful for the results.”
