Abusive Personalities

Posted by amy at 6:23 PM Sunday, November 15, 2009

Do you know the signs of an abusive personality?
I do.

Sneak peak:
1. Quick involvement- only dates for 6 months or less before talking you into moving in.
2. Unrealistic Expectations- very dependent on you for everything.
3. Isolation- tries to cut you off from friends & family
4. Playful use of force during sex- likes throwing you down, holding your wrists, jumping on top of you, or holding you up against the wall to have sex
5. Verbal abuse- constantly criticizes you

There are 5 more.

Who, exactly, seeks out a coach?? Winners who want even more out of life."
— Chicago Tribune,

"The hottest thing in management is the
executive coach —
part boss, part consultant,
part therapist.
Betsy Morris

Got a nagging feeling that your life could be

more fulfilling? Want to change direction but
aren't sure how to do it? Here's how to jump
start your new life today? Hire a personal
coach."

— Modern Maturity

Coaching can certainly help you strengthen

your sense of selfworth, focus on your goals
— and get there, fast."

— The London Daily Telegraph

"…a personal coach is better than a

best friend."

Coaching is an action-oriented partnership

that, unlike psychotherapy which delves
into patterns of the past, concentrates on
where you are today and how you can reach
your goals."

— Time

"Coaching is not about the past or figuring

out why and how life got so complicated or
overwhelming. It is about moving forward on
the things that matter most to you,
dissolving barriers and blocks to your own
success, and designing a life that you love."
