Is Life Coaching right for you?
Greetings! If you are considering Life Coaching, and are ready for a positive change in your life, then I am here to help and guide you. I’m happy to share a little about myself and what I do as a Life Coach. This is something I am truly passionate about and is at the core of what I do through my life’s work at Tattoos of My Soul.
My background/story:
I first considered becoming a Life Coach after going through a very difficult time personally. My husband and I were almost violently killed in February of 2020 at our home, and then a year later, due to unresolved trauma and stress, we almost divorced. If you would like to hear my full story, it can be found on my website, tattoosofmysoul.com. Needless to say, I went through a very challenging and painful time. This time caused me to do some real soul searching, which ended up being hugely beneficial to my overall growth and development as a human being. As I went through the process of healing from my trauma, I learned some very valuable lessons and realized a true and serious shift within myself was taking place. This shift was about casting off the old self; a self that was defined by my traumatic experiences and past, and one that was deeply wounded. I was putting on a new self- one that was confident, strong, positive and determined to grow.
This shift caused me to consider becoming a Life Coach as I developed a strong desire to help others grow and heal through painful experiences just as I had. In addition, I realized that our greatest struggles in life can become our greatest strength, if we do the necessary inner work and develop the right perspective.
Once I started looking into life coaching and all it entailed, I very quickly knew, this was the path I wanted to take. I enrolled in online courses and became a Certified Life Coach. Now I am extremely passionate about helping others to grow, heal and evolve through the valleys of life we all go through.
Credentials:
-
Certified Life Coach (CLC) through The Life Purpose Institute (LPI) which is fully accredited by the International Coaching Federation (ICF).
-
Bachelor’s Degree in Early Childhood Education.
My Coaching Program:
My coaching program is based on biweekly or monthly (depending on your preference) coaching sessions. Each session is 60 minutes long. We start by having an Initial Discovery Session; this is where you and I get to know each other a little. During this 45-60 minute session, I am able to understand, through a series of questions and short assessments; where you currently are at in your life and where you ultimately want to be. We will discuss your general goals and may also discuss blocks/obstacles that have held you back, previously. We will determine and set 3-15 goals you would like to address during our time together. This session helps to set the course for the actual coaching that will take place. It is the barometer, if you will, that helps me to gauge what direction we need to go in order to produce the most growth and benefit for you, as the client.
Following the Initial Discovery Session, we will begin our actual coaching sessions. I coach using a very effective system from LPI that has been used since 1984 with over 2 million people worldwide, as well as my own system that I have developed, “The Fundamental Five”. In each session we will work to address the topic (you select) and determine goals and action steps around it. My main goal, as the Coach, is to help you find your own answers within the issues we discuss.

What past and current clients are saying:
“For whatever unexplainable reason, Molly has been able to help me heal, and release guilt that has been attached to me for many years. She has the ability to see light in dark situations, and has a very spiritual, infectious energy that brings light into our lives that we can carry wherever we go. She has also worked with me in setting amazing goals, and achieving them! Thank you Molly Duncan for all of your support and knowledge. You have helped me strengthen my relationship with my wife, friends and family.” (R.N. of Springfield, Ohio)
“Molly has helped me clarify goals for myself, as well as giving me the necessary tools to overcome obstacles keeping me from reaching my goals. Molly has truly been a game changer for me and my life.” (Cara Smith of Springfield, Ohio)
"Coaching with Molly has helped me refocus on myself, my goals and my priorities. In my time with her we work to create attainable strategies and action plans that align with my goals and needs. This time I invested in myself was exactly what I needed." (Alexis Fourman, Springfield OH)
"Molly has a true gift for advising regarding how you want your life to be. I believe the tools she gives you for life are very helpful. With her guidance along with hard work, I had the best year in real estate after 13 years in the business. I am grateful for my sessions with her and will continue to meet with her." (Susie Foreman, Springfield, OH)
Timeline:
I typically suggest at least 5 sessions to begin with. At the end of the fifth session the client can determine if adequate progress has been made or if they would like to continue with additional sessions. Pricing is as follows, but I offer a discounted package to meet the recommended 5 sessions.
Initial Discovery Session: The cost for the initial Discovery Session, lasting between 45 and 60 minutes, is $90, payable at the conclusion of the session.
Coaching Sessions: The cost for each subsequent Coaching Session, lasting 60 minutes each, is $90, payable at the conclusion of the session.
Coaching Package (5 Sessions): When FIVE coaching sessions are pre-paid at the conclusion of the initial discovery session, the cost of this package is $459 (a 15% discount). When FIVE coaching sessions are purchased after the initial discovery session, the cost will be $450 (in addition to the $90 Discovery session fee, previously paid).
Forms of payment accepted: Credit Card (Square), Personal Check or Cash.
FAQ:
Do you meet virtually? Yes I am able to meet in the office if you are local to the Springfield, Ohio area, but if not, I can meet virtually, via Zoom.
Are sessions confidential? Yes, any and all information discussed between you, the client and I, the coach, is 100% confidential.
What’s the difference between coaching, consulting and therapy?
Coaching is distinct from consulting in that I will help you come up with your own answers rather than advising. It is different from therapy in that we will address any obstacles that have kept you from achieving your goals, but we will not engage in any psychological area that requires training and licensing.
What if I feel stuck, but don’t really know what my goals are?
This is totally okay, and actually somewhat typical! This is something I am able to help you work through. Through discussion and guided questions/prompts we will be able to set achievable, highly beneficial goals. Do not worry if you don’t know what your goals are right now.
Are there any tools/resources you recommend to use in conjunction with my coaching sessions?
Yes! I have created a guided journal, “The Life Changing Journal” which incorporates my system, “The Fundamental Five”. This is the system that I created during my own personal healing journey and one I found to be highly effective and beneficial. Purchase of the journal is not required, but highly recommended as it helps to reinforce the things we work on during sessions when you are in your daily life. *Clients receive a 15% discount on their journal purchase.
I am looking for a Christian Life Coach, is this in your wheelhouse?
While I am not an expert on the bible, my guidance is often faith based, especially if this is how the client leans. My faith and God are a fundamental part of who I am and how I have healed from my own personal trauma, so I love any opportunity where I can share this and encourage others.
What areas of coaching do you specialize in? Do you have a particular area of focus?
As a CLC, I am able to help people make progress in a wide range of areas including their health (both mental and physical), relationships, careers, spirituality, life balance, and overall well being. As someone who has been through significant trauma, I am well equipped to relate and understand trauma on a personal and deep level; I love to help people recover from their painful experiences and help them become stronger and whole again. I also love to motivate and encourage my clients to improve their daily habits and rituals, as I believe these are the anchors of good mental health.
