Step-In Project
Would you like to help change a life?
Every week I come across struggling individuals – those who would benefit enormously from a handful of coaching sessions. They could go from stressed and frightened, to energised and excited – ready to climb back into life’s driving seat, if only they had someone to help them reframe their thoughts, and reconstruct their lives.
Morally and spiritually, I know it is right to help those who can’t afford to pay, and on a regular basis I do this. But financially I am limited to who I can help. I hate to have to make this choice. As more and more people cross my path, I have been looking to the universe for a solution.
Then something remarkable happened. My web designer, an amazing human being, became aware of my dilemma. He kindly offered to give me $5 for every person who signs up to an on-going project he is working on.
Suddenly I realised the only thing standing between me and working with those who desperately need coaching is ongoing funds. What if I turned my entire coaching practice around and looked to others to help people, through me?
What if, (through the state of grace and generosity) my network of people who know me and know how I work – could give $5 per month to support my endeavours? That would free me up to actively help those who, through whatever situation, has led them to a place of suffering and hardship. Your $5, joined with other like-minded benefactors, could mean I could give time to others in ways I could only dream of. I am clear who I can work with and who would benefit from my type of service. My clients could be the pan-handler in the street, a woman who finds herself in a refuge centre, the person queuing at a food bank - people who really need what I have to share.
I work in an unusual way. Many times I visit people in their own environments (then I really to know how life is for them.) I know that the way people think is crucial to a promising future. I am particularly well versed in helping those I work with manage thought processes which keep them stuck; while tackling the practical elements to enable them to move forward. I am repeatedly dumbfounded by the expansiveness and creativity people express, once their best selves are unleashed and allowed flourish.
When people have experienced repeated disappointments, tragedies, and obstacles, they often give up hope. They begin to think of themselves as victims, and they do not see how they can improve their lives. That is where I can help. Using my life coaching skills, I can help people become confident, inventive, and better able to handle their situations. I can help them see a way up and out of the despair and the poverty.
So together we work out a plan. We dream of a better life for the person, and then figure out ways to create it. From my time running a healing clinic in a doctor’s surgery/office in England and my ten plus years as a life coach, I have seen a lot of suffering. But I know miracles can happen. I’ve seen them. ![]()
My gift is to be able to see the light in others and help bring this out in the world.
Everybody has hidden talents, something special to offer. The goal with each candidate is to find ways to express this in reality. I will let one of my most recent Step-In candidates speak for herself. (see video clip below).
A portion of donated monies will be set aside for a slush fund. Effectively, this will enable the administering of small amounts to candidates where appropriate to speed up transitions. (An example may be providing funds for a laptop, or the purchase of a smart coat for an interview. It could even be as simple as a hair cut.) However my main aim is to supply knowledge and encouragement in order to facilitate shifts in thinking, thus opening a door to making goals and dreams a reality.
Can you help me?
On behalf of those I assist today and in the future, my deepest thanks. Your contribution is an integral part of this journey. Your small gift, merged with contributions from others is laying the foundation to offer a new vision in how we assist those, who, for whatever the circumstances, find themselves in need.
As an expression of gratitude, every one who makes a donation will receive the digital copy (pdf) of my latest book The Key: A Spiritual Parable.
This short story is set in medieval times and blends mind mastery skills with a spiritual understanding.

Please note: My intention is to expand the Step-In Project. Coaches, please contact me if you are interested in using your own network to assist your communities. A spiritual outlook is valuable. You will know if you are drawn to helping those in need.
I am delighted to partner with Julie in her Step-In Project quest.
