How Personal Life Coaching Can Help
From Procrastination to Progress
If you struggle with procrastination, you’re not alone. Unfortunately, we’re often the worst procrastinators precisely when it comes to those personal goals that are the most important to us. Why is that? Probably because these goals are often huge, far away in the future, have no deadlines, and may not be as important to others as they are to us. That is why we need to apply all the tricks we can to move towards them against all odds. I’ll help you clarify your priorities, figure out what your obstacles are, and help you develop specific strategies to overcome those. If you struggle with ADHD, we can place special attention to your needs and unique strengths around that.
From Failed Attempts to Healthy Habits
If you’ve ever tried to change your habits, your inner critic is probably an expert about why those previous attempts have failed. We can work with that knowledge. What you may think of as failure can give us important information in our quest to find practices that work better for you. Better often means easier, in the sense that your new practices should align more with your natural tendencies. That way, your new habits will get a chance to stick and truly work for you in the long run. In order to help you figure out your own best practices, I will draw from well-researched methods, such as choice architecture, and from findings in behavioral economics and neuropsychology.
From Guilt and Shame to Enjoying a Balanced Life
If you haven’t been making enough progress towards your personal goals, chances are you feel guilty about it. You may find it hard to disconnect at the end of the day, when you wanted to relax and enjoy life. Maybe you feel like you don’t deserve a break? This can lead to chronic exhaustion and burnout, and a vicious cycle of inefficiency. I will help you interrupt this cycle.
Depending on where you are, I will help you:
– Process past regrets and shame, if they are holding you up
– Clarify your priorities and set realistic goals
– Make a smarter schedule and take better breaks
– Create an environment that nudges you in the right direction
Managing and enjoying your personal time in a meaningful, balanced and healthy way is not easy! But it is a skill that can be learned and improved. I am excited to help you master it.
Personal Life Coaching: How it Works
We will start with an initial in-depth assessment of your personal values, goals and motivators, your current habits and environment, and your personality along the Five Factor Model (FFM). A part of this initial assessment will happen during our sessions together, and a part of it will be homework for you in between our meetings. Likely, you will already see some changes during this initial data gathering phase.
Based on this initial assessment, we will develop a game plan for how you can improve your routines and habits to fit your personal goals in a healthy and balanced way. While you start new practices, we will keep analyzing how these are working out for you, and I will help you trouble-shoot along the way. This experimental approach ensures that we are truly optimizing your practice by taking into account your individual needs and preferences. A lot of the typical “shame and failure” thinking will fall by the wayside with this approach, even when things don’t work out as planned right away. Instead, we will see everything that happens along the way as new data to analyze. This information will help us find practices that truly work for you in the long run.

“I am so happy with the pace and progress I’ve made with Ursina’s help, she has become my coach for all my key decisions.

“I highly recommend Ursina. I have worked with her a number of times since 2013. Whenever I am feeling stuck in my professional and/or personal growth I seek her out. I really appreciate how many different tools/techniques/exercises she has, and how she is able to creatively mix and match them to fit where you are at. I also really enjoy how knowledgeable she is about the neuroscience of decision making. Definitely not a run of the mill career counselor! If you are serious about exploring your core values and strengths, and how to find satisfying work spend some time with Ursina.”
