CALLUM FOSTER LIFE-COACH & ILLUSTRATOR
THE BEST OF LIFE? - HOUND IT!
WHY LETTING ME BE YOUR GUIDE IS A GOOD DESICION!
There are a great many Life-coaches, and you will have questions to help you qualify; 1. Will I actually need life-coaching? 2. Is this Life-coach any good at his job? 3. What makes this guy stand out more than others I can go and see?
Here you will see;
. What I offer and how I differ?
. What you won't get from me?
​
​
SO YOU VALUE LARGE TRANSFORMATION HUH?
As a coach who wears lots of hats successfully, I offer coaching in the realms of;
Personal transformation, creativity, and education. I understand the rigours of success and am looking to give back to those who value the results of taking on the challenge of change just like I do.
​
I offer different types of sessions, be it one-to-one or as a group through a program.
I offer in-phone and video-meeting sessions; all of these with a faster waiting time than going through the NHS or your national health services where you live.
​
I, like most, will offer 6 sessions to start, adding finest meat to the journey we will go on, as we work together.
There can be extra sessions at shorter notice, where you can reach me to go through something that has come up, pronto in your life at that time - We will call these 'emergency sesions.'
You may ask: What if I need more than 6 sessions? Some journeys will take 'as long as they take'. I understand this, and you may have a rabbit-hole for us to go down, There may be more questions to ask with every session and it's uncovering. We can negotiate what is left to solve and we can continue sessions a month at a time.
For all clients I offer a 30 day money back guarentee just in case on the very rare chance, we don't tick your box when we boil down what you need to transform.
​
Please note, there will be homework (Put-into-practise-work), for you to embrace further the value gleaned from our sessions to make it fully your own mission.
​
HOW I DIFFER?
TEACHER IS YOUR GUIDE.
I am an educator first, so you can be sure that I set out each session sequentially and am fully focused on having you learn how to better help yourself. I am equiped to guide you through difficult critical points, breaking down large concepts with explanation and analogy, so that all things are attainable to helping you transform.
​
PAST-FORWARDS APPROACH - A RARE SERVICE INDEED.
A Life-coach is someone who delivers you from point A - B, from present tense into future tense. The majority will not dabble with a person's past. This enters the realm of 'therapy'. I am not a therapist, nor have I the University schooling that will certify me to be one, but I will take a look into the past. I can encompass a past-forwards approach, where with philosophical questioning, analogy and the process of making peace with one's past, we can fully be present into the readiness to finally transform.
​
I MAKE IT MY JOB TO DELIVER THE TRANSCENDENT.
I am an inter-discipliniary thinker knowledgeable in many arenas;
Philosophy, Art and art history, educational methodology (known as pedagogy) and leadership.
Having many pots of knowledge at your dispossal means you are sharper and have a clearer understanding of how multiple facets of life prise themselves together.
​
I champion alternative methods, and to those who know me, they know that I rarely do normal or middle of the road.
I, just like you am reared towards achieving the fullness of life.
​
VALUE, MEANING AND THE CURRENCY OF CONTENTMENT, PERSONALLY.
Some of you might not like this but, I don't do business coaching (Hard limit).
You care about your business, I'll care about giving you the keys to upgrading the quality of your personal life (Which on the most profound level is what you come here for anyway.)

​
There are elements of Life-Coaching that others subscribe to that I don't, here are the things you won't get from me;
​
​
"IF EVERYONE IS THINKING ALIKE, THEN SOMEBODY ISN'T THINGING." George S. Patton
WHAT YOU WON'T GET FROM ME
CBT EVERYTHING! - COS A BROKEN 'ONE-SIZE-FITS-ALL' DOESN'T FIX EVERYTHING!
CBT = Cognitive behavioural therapy
​
It seems like everyone is pedistooling CBT therapy within their offerings these days, certainly all the therapists I have been in contact with in the past few years, especially when I myself needed life guidance. I know that there are things we do where we take on CBT traits without knowing it, but as a modality, this has been less than stellar. Here is what CBT as a modality doesn't do;
. Reach the emotional centers of where we need to be herded from, in order to rationally take stock of how we think about our thinking.
. Tiptoes around listening to our predicaments in how we got to where we find ourselves now. (Invalidating)
. Cannot provoke the deep questions and human needs analysis, we need to have us consider how personal-change-journeys can effect our motivations to advance.
. Holds no currency with helping us make peace with our past.
​
TRANSITIONAL STAGES AS SOLID-DEFINED CATEGORIES - COS MRRRH, FIT BACK IN THE BOX PLEASE.
I don't consider Jung's Character architypes, or Maslow's hierarchy of needs as a solid learning tool, as with transformation in humans and their motivations, we exercise Neuro-plasticity, to where you realise we don't simply fit into categoried boxes.
1. There is no hierarchy as your situational needs, dictate you will have diferent things you require.
2. With growth-mindset and epigenetics you can surpass any one given category, if not find, you are more accurately a mixture of few character types. This eliminates archetypes in universality.
3. We are trying to leave behind the old routines from our rat-race lives. These categories purely put us back in that old way of thinking.

​
I am professional and do not share your information in any way. If I feel you require a therapist for mental health issues, I will inform you and give all the relevant links and numbers to give you assistance, and if you cannot continue on this course; with verbal admission I can take you off of the billing structure.
