Kokoro Coaching - Living the Kokoro Life
What is the point of life? It is to just be tolerated, take what it gives and suffer the slings and arrows? Or is it more? To maximize your freedom and options.
We all will come into direct resistance to progress and health. It could be from the outside as a barrier, or the inside as a behavior. Just like Rocky Balboa used to “rise up to the challenge of his rival. We must train so that we get bigger and our problems get smaller. That is Kokoro.
Kokoro is a concept that emphasizes the interconnectedness of the heart, mind, and spirit, and the profound impact this connection has on an individual's life and their relationship with the world around them.

Pre-Executive Coaching
We focus on people aiming to move up in their careers because being at the top requires vitality and effectiveness. We prepare the next generation of leaders.
Pre-Executive coaching is a personal process that helps future leaders improve their skills, handle challenges, and reach goals. It is a private partnership where a coach helps an executive develop leadership, decision-making, and strategic thinking. The coach doesn’t give the executive answers but helps them find what they already know inside.
Our work builds strength, wisdom, and focus. Since nothing happens alone, executives must fully commit to personal growth. We offer high-quality training inspired by martial arts to build a strong mindset. We shape genuine leaders who lead naturally. Success in business starts with success as a person. We create authentic leaders who command respect just by their presence.
Our ideal executive coaching client is an individual on the climb who will need to stay razor sharp to make it to the elite ranks. It is an investment to save time and be prepared.
Key aspects of executive coaching:
- Confidential and personalized: Executive coaching is a one-on-one relationship where the coach and executive work on specific goals and challenges in a confidential setting.
- Connect with aliveness: Work with executives to connect with the source of their passion and renew purpose and mission.
- Focus on leadership development: It helps leaders improve their leadership skills, such as strategic thinking, decision-making, and team management.
- Goal-oriented and results-driven: Executive coaching aims to achieve specific, measurable outcomes for both the individual leader and the organization.
- External perspective: Coaches provide an objective perspective and can help leaders identify blind spots and develop new strategies.
- Focus on senior leaders or those preparing for the rank: It's specifically tailored for individuals in C-suite positions, senior VPs, and high-level directors.
Benefits of executive coaching:
- Increased self-awareness: Executives gain a better understanding of their strengths, weaknesses, and impact on others.
- Improved leadership skills: Coaching can enhance various leadership skills, including communication, delegation, and conflict resolution.
- Enhanced decision-making: Coaches help leaders develop more effective decision-making processes.
- Better organizational performance: By improving leadership effectiveness, executive coaching can lead to positive outcomes for the entire organization.
- Career advancement: Coaching can help leaders prepare for new roles and opportunities.
- We can meet with teams and improve alignment and purpose.
- In essence, executive coaching is a powerful tool for accelerating leadership development and driving organizational success by helping senior leaders reach their full potential.
Cost is based on project requirements. Executive coaching requires a local in-person relationship.

Family Coaching
Families are small groups of people with different ideas and needs in a complex system. No wonder there can be struggles.
A family is like an organism seeking homeostasis. Any change can disrupt the system and throw it into chaos. The chaos is what causes the emotions, and we think it is the others causing problems, but it is actually the situational dynamics. Once strife enters the equation, the facts are lost.
Kokoro Family Coaching is not therapy, it does not seek to diagnose, and it does not delve into dark areas of the past. What we do is understand each person, understand the dynamics, set a fair and even playing field where all people are equal and everyone is heard and then manage to understand, and seek and unity.
The baseline of individual dignity, autonomy and agency for one’s needs are allowed to be expressed in a culture of openness. There is no dominant opinion, no bullies and no one is bullied. From understanding and unity can topics be addressed and managed.
Humanization. Our approach is not initially focused on heads saying what is wrong. Our approach is making hearts right and once hearts are right, conversation is more meaningful and productive.
There is an appreciation for the inherent value of all people. At our door, the fighting has stopped because humanization has started. It is impossible to hate or hurt someone you have humanized. Once you humanize, our higher level being is present and real unity can happen. In unity, there is healing, forgiveness and shared value and excitement for what is to come.
What was previously destructive is now, alive and air is moving, and people are heard and cared for again.
How our family coaching works (once again, this is not therapy):
Before we formally agree to work together, participants submit well-being assessments. We meeti for a few minutes independent and prior to the family coaching session. This discussion will remain private from the coach's perspective.
We will rate emotions, conduct a well-being assessment and ensure participants are capable of being in the session and that we are able to work with family or individual members.
As always, Kokoro recognizes all the needs for wellness and wellbeing within people. As a result, during times when there is coaching on the calendar we provide additional services as part of your coaching relationship.
One 55-minute weekly web or phone group coaching call which will have requirements of confidentiality and privacy. No recording and all clients are known to the group. Anyone there has been through the intake process.
Free access to the Kokoro digital wellness studio where clients and students can take our Lifestyle Medicine members only classes, workshops, get teacher and coach support and more.
Family can participate in Kokoro socials which could be outdoor activities or social gatherings to share stories and grow in friendship through this unique growth experience.
MyFitnessPal platform training, use to support nutritional habits, coach accountability and optional contests.
