Life Coaching Packages

About the artist

Born in 1882 Georges Braque was a renowned French painter and collagist. He also practiced other art disciplines such as printmaking and sculptor. Together with Pablo Picasso he introduced the word collage to the art world, originating from the French word coller meaning ‘to glue’ or ‘stick’.

What’s in a name?

The six-week package is named after Braque because (along with Picasso) he was the first to use collage to shift conventional thinking in the art world and create new ways of seeing. As a coaching package Braque has the same purpose, using collage to challenge the norm (i.e., your habits and mindsets) and offer you new perspectives to shift your thinking.

Your 6 Sessions | Orientation & Grounding

Over the course of your six sessions you’ll explore individual images in more depth. You determine the focus of enquiry at each session through your image choice, ensuring the coaching is led by you.

My role as your coach is to hold the silence and use other techniques that enable you to unearth and discover your own meaning and understanding. Through increased self-awareness, you’ll begin the process of ‘unlearning’ habits, shifting mindsets and noticing language that either doesn’t serve you well or holds you back from fulfilling your goals and aspirations.

The number of sessions in Braque allows you to begin the process of realignment to your values and reconnection to your truth. You will fully experience coaching with collage and benefit from the outcomes of coaching creatively before deciding whether to commit to a longer-term transformational package.

About the artist

Yasmine Nasser Diaz is a multimedia artist born to Yemeni parents. Her primary discipline is collage and, described as a breakout artist, she starts each day by creating a collage. Yasmine’s work explores the complexities of third-culture identity and challenges beliefs around religion and gender.

What’s in a name?

Diaz has a passion and desire to use art to explore complicated narratives in identity. The nine-week package is named after her as it fulfils the same objectives by facilitating exploration, through collage, of the complexities in your narratives and identity.

Your 9 Sessions |Expansion & Consolidation 

With nine sessions, this package offers you additional time to discuss and make meaning of more images on your collage. This continued exploration of your narrative surfaces further information that enables you to see connections and relationships between images and their positioning that you might not otherwise.

As these patterns emerge, they help to integrate your learning by reinforcing and consolidating your previous discovery. Although at times challenging and potentially uncomfortable, this exploration is valuable in helping you build a clearer picture of who you are and how you want to be.

Having clarity of your values, passions, beliefs, experiences etc., means you’re better able to make choices and changes aligned to your true identity. Coming from a place of authenticity, these behavioural changes are more sustainable, steadfast and supportive of your goals.

About the artist

Born in 1911 Romare Bearden was a black American artist, author, and songwriter who worked with many types of artistic mediums. However, he is most famous for his unique and innovative collage work. This work largely focused on the lived experiences of African Americans. His passion for his subject led to him empowering and promoting other black artists.

Significantly, Romare was asked to play for a famous baseball team but declined the invitation when, being of fair complexion, they asked him to ‘pass’ as a white man. Rather than compromise his values and deny his true identity, he decided to pursue his passion and trust himself as he did the thing he loved…collage art.

What’s in a name?

The 12-session package is called Romare to inspire and remind you that through coaching with collage you can develop the confidence and self-belief to follow and succeed at your dreams.

Your 12 Sessions | Deep Integration & Embodiment

The twelve sessions offer you a year-long reflective coaching experience. This space and time support the deep integration, embodiment and clarity beyond circumstance the come from fully exploring your whole collage.

The extended time also provides the opportunity to create another collage to capture and reflect on how and what has changed for you.

While the process of unlearning old habits and integrating and embodying new mindsets takes time, working with your collage increases the rate at which change occurs. The pace of change is enhanced by the 12-session package because it offers the most comprehensive exploration, insights and reflection of your collage. As you become secure in the truth that you can trust yourself and your intuition, head knowledge becomes heart knowledge. Empowering you to feel more confident in your ability to overcome challenges as you stretch your comfort zone.

We know that learning is never complete, but by the end of the 12 sessions you’ll have transformed to a more authentic you and be in a better position to say:

“This is who I am. I own every part of me including my past. When I stand in this space I thrive and in doing so enable others to also.”
