Offerings

Work with Belinda...

I am an author, Catholic coach, speaker, and teacher who seeks to serve you with my God given talents and gifts to achieve the dreams and goals God has for you, helping you to become who God created you to be and make your life full. From the first Inquiry Call to see if we can work together to our last session, I am here to help and will work hard for you.

Coaching

What I will contribute to your life as your coach:

First and foremost, I will pray for you and for all the good things God has for you and for myself to be as efficient as possible in helping you. Upon your request, I will accompany you to explore and discover your God-given purpose in life.
I will pray for you now and forever whether you’ve made an inquiry call or been coaching with me for years.
I will listen deeply and use powerful questions to help us uncover and articulate your hopes and dreams.
I will assist you in writing a mission statement, clarify values and write out specific goals.
I will assist you in developing a Rule of Life and a comprehensive plan of TLCs. I’m particularly good at this having helped hundreds of students now!
I will help you learn how to calm your mind and quiet your heart.
I will help you see where your thinking and mindset are not helpful and then help you change that. I’m particularly good at this as well.
I will help you set up a prayer schedule and stick to it.

I will use my gifts of empathy and experience to the fullest extent. (Note: I have had a husband with severe bipolar disorder and addictions who was abusive and suicidal, had 3 neurodiverse children (out of 7), had an emergency caesarian, miscarried 2 babies, had a missing child, estranged family members and experienced trauma and grief so I understand so much).
I will help you build a firm foundation on God and a support system/team around you.
I will help you discover new ways of organizing and managing time to achieve your goals and build relationships.
I will refer you to counseling, spiritual direction, and other resources as I believe will benefit you. As a licensed clinician and teacher of counselors, I want you to get any and all help you may need. If you are better served in therapy, you can count on me to tell you that and refer you!
In future courses I’m developing, I hope to have more assistance and resources for you.

Individual (1:1) Coaching

I will work with you to help:

Discover your vision and mission in life and make a Rule of Life.
Clarify your goals to accomplish this mission.
Explore your Clifton Strengths to help accomplish the mission.
Explore future dreams and goals.
Use the therapeutic lifestyle changes to enhance balance and order.

What Belinda's coaching clients are saying...

Belinda is such a gift. Even on days when I didn’t feel like getting coached, she was so great about helping me to get out of my own head to create structured action steps to move forward. She is a coach who is going to do the little extras that help keep you on-track to fulfill your God-given mission. In addition, she is a coach you know is always praying for you. You can be sure that God is going to show up in your session, and that is a win in my book.

~Kylie Hein, Catholic coach

Belinda is an insightful coach and a great listener. She asks the type of probing questions that get to the heart of the matter, helping you to focus your energy in a positive direction. With Belinda as your coach, chances are you will climb mountains you never thought possible!

Belinda is a heart-open daughter of God. Her rich life experience is really impressive. She can be a coach but if you wish she can be a mentor for you, too.

Belinda is a wonderful coach. She is very insightful and inspiring, helping me to reframe and achieve a better mindset. On difficult days her coaching has helped give me calm, serenity and hope. She has really helped me to reflect and analyze deeply so I can move forward and achieve my goals. I love the details in her follow-up that keep me accountable and on track. I absolutely love that God and our faith are integrated throughout the coaching experience with Belinda.

~Carla Colon, Catholic Coach

Already in two months meeting weekly with Belinda, I have made progress in my immediate goal of getting my personal life and home more organized, to be able to focus on maintaining a more structured and balanced life, and am eager to look ahead to discerning, setting and achieving longer term life goals. Belinda helps by encouraging me to get past mental obstacles enabling me to better arrange my life for a more God-centered future.

~M.S.,

IT professional woman working from home

Working with Belinda as a coach is an answered prayer! As a young, new homeschooling mom, I have been looking for direction in how to get started and how to properly educate my children. She has taken me under her wing of nearly 30 years of experience in homeschooling, and has enriched me with knowledge on how to not only get started, but how to be successful in the years to come. She is helping me to clearly state my hopes and dreams for my children and how I homeschool and also facing my fears and keeping a positive mindset.

~Jenna Verrett, Catholic homeschooling mom

My experience receiving coaching from Belinda was phenomenal. Belinda is a thoughtful and intentional listener, able to tailor the conversation to answer every question and concern in a natural way–to the point where it feels like a conversation with an old friend, but one that is productive and introspective. I will always be grateful for her in my and my family’s life.

~Cinthya Yabar Lowder, homeschooling mom

Belinda knew how to ask just the right questions to help me see some difficult situations from a new perspective. I left our latest coaching session feeling empowered to take the steps necessary to drastically improve our family’s homeschool life and cultivate greater peace within our home. Belinda also has such a warm personality and is a very prayerful and loving person, which enriches her coaching and makes one feel very supported and cared for during their time with her. It has been a real blessing to know Belinda and experience working with her as my homeschooling coach!

~Amanda, homeschooling mom

Since I’ve had Belinda’s coaching for my writing, I feel as if I have written in three weeks what has taken me two years to write. She can help you focus on the essentials and introduce you to the secrets of professional writing.

Sister Mary Catherine Blanding, Author

In just one coaching session, Belinda helped me unblock mindset obstacles which cleared the way for a more positive and productive thought process! I’m looking forward to the next session.

Wendy Davies, Author

Belinda wants to build relationships to get to know the person she’s conversing with on a deeper level. She is also a very caring person that wants to help others in the journey through life so they can thrive.

~Augustine Payne,

TLI Leadership program friend

Her experience and knowledge base has inspired me. She has been able to help me to set goals and guide me to sources that can assist me with my goals that I have set. I encourage those who seek coaching to consider Belinda for their voyage, as coaching is truly a growth process and must be received properly and professionally to get the most out of sessions.

~Alice Powell, retired widow

Belinda is a Spirit filled, God loving, saint loving person who diligently works to bring Christ to all she meets. She loves her friends and gives her all in her relationships. She has been given the gift of being wonderful with words, and those words come from her heart and prayer. Her joy for the Lord is ever present even in the midst of great sorrow. Belinda is always ready to listen and goes above and beyond what is necessary to help in any way she can. She inspires others to be the best person they can be and is a generous advocate and champion for those in crisis. Through her devotion to the Holy Face of Jesus, she is a prayer warrior for the reparation of sin and the salvation of souls. I am fortunate to call her my friend and sister in Christ.
