hello, I am a construction coa...</title><content type='html'>thrifty homeowner,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;hello, I am a construction coach in toronto Ontario. I have been a contractor and project manager for 10 years now. in the last 2 years I have trained with CTI (Coaches Training Institute)from California, the worlds leading coach training company. I have completed training as a life coach.&lt;br /&gt;as a project manager I have seen and continue to see on a daily basis, highly educated, brilliant, and successful professionals make renovation and construction mistakes that cost them financially and emotionally. it is this experience that was the Genesis of my seeking training as a coach.&lt;br /&gt;I am currently building a practice coaching homeowners. my approach is slightly different than what I think your research might have found. what I mean is, when I am coaching I am initially only interested in the human element for example why the reno is being done, what the expectation is etc.&lt;br /&gt;more times than not this will lead to other life challenges many of us have, but as a coach I work with what ever comes that day.&lt;br /&gt;with 10 years construction experience I feel I am uniquely qualified to assist my clients by providing emmotional support primarily but also sound construction advice if required.&lt;br /&gt;i really do try to avoid getting involved in the actual physical renovation or construction as I am really there to provide support to the individuals and not the process. i would love to answer any other questions for you if your intereted? you can find me at theconstructioncoach.blogspot.com</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3118262755473177950/5891304301960108313/comments/default/516034602303466869'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3118262755473177950/5891304301960108313/comments/default/516034602303466869'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.thriftyhomeowner.com/2008/12/whats-renovation-coach.html?showComment=1291238484237#c516034602303466869' title=''/><author><name>Damian</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04865545307400991642</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='20' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UBg6eoZgP_Y/TAVojBi-4nI/AAAAAAAAAAM/XODrFwMEAiQ/S220/damianbizcard.JPG'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.thriftyhomeowner.com/2008/12/whats-renovation-coach.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3118262755473177950.post-5891304301960108313' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3118262755473177950/posts/default/5891304301960108313' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-1466120447'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3118262755473177950.post-6963808936093137871</id><published>2008-12-03T07:52:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-12-03T07:52:00.000-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Hi Barbara,&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Please contact me at http://www...</title><content type='html'>Hi Barbara,&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Please contact me at http://www.emailmeform.com/fid.php?formid=79363 so we can discuss.
