Cheryl Keates (Coach of The Week)
We all go through hard times in life. Moments where our resolve is challenged. Moments where it feels like everything we hold true is somehow in doubt.
How we respond to these moments can define our lives. It’s where we experience the greatest potential for growth. I believe this is a major part of why we are here on Earth: to step into these challenges and to get the fullest human experience possible.
A few years back Cheryl went through a really challenging time in her life when a loved one got very sick. She dutifully gave all she had to looking after this family member, but in doing so found herself isolated from the rest of the world.
Sometimes when you fall out of flow it can feel really hard to get back into the swing of things. I experienced this in January after the recent passing of my aunt and grandmother.
It took courage for Cheryl to say yes to doing a shoot with me.
It took courage for her to step back into the spotlight, but based on how things are going with her business, I’d say it was a very wise decision.
I for one am thrilled she is sharing her magic with the world.

Describe your coaching approach in 2-3 sentences.
I take a holistic approach to coaching. That means coaching the whole person instead of just one area of their life, since all areas of life affect one another. I truly believe that the more balanced and fulfilled we are, the better we perform in all areas of life.
Who is your favourite type of person to coach?
I love working with driven professionals and entrepreneurs with BIG DREAMS. They are so eager to learn and grow and are courageous enough to step into the forum of self-discovery to deepen their awareness in order to make a bigger impact.
Share the name of one coach or mentor that has impacted your life:
Susie Vicencio. She taught me the power of tapping into my most resourced self.
Where are you most at peace?
Walking in nature with my dogs. I just love witnessing the joy on their faces when being free to explore.
Name one thing that you are super excited about:
I am building a platform to make coaching more accessible to people and I get so excited at the thought of being able to help impact many more lives on a greater scale.
