Family Coaching Program
Helping People Build Harmonious Families
“The family is the corner stone of our society. More than any other force it shapes the attitude, the hopes, the ambitions, and the values of the child. And when the family collapses it is the children that are usually damaged. When it happens on a massive scale the community itself is crippled. So, unless we work to strengthen the family, to create conditions under which most parents will stay together, all the rest — schools, playgrounds, and public assistance, and private concern — will never be enough.”

- Lyndon Johnson

We are excited to announce our latest line of Life Enrichment Programs, Family Coaching!

This Coaching Program, which requires the participation of both parents and their children, is designed to make your children feel understood while strategically helping you to effectively communicate your hopes and desires to your children without making them feel overwhelmed or exasperated. While drawing on the vast knowledge and diverse experiences of our Parenting Coaching Program and Marriage Coaching Program, our Family Coaching Program is designed to realize the much needed mutual understanding between you and your spouse, as well as between both of you and your children.

This Family Coaching Program is an imperative in this age where Trust, Respect, Forgiveness, Support, Encouragement, Compassion, Sacrifice, Responsiveness, Understanding, Participation, Commitment, Collaboration, Integrity, Fairness, Unity, and Fun are becoming extinct from families and households. Despite statistics indicating that the rate of broken families in the world is now over 50%, we strongly believe that deep down in the hearts of both parents, they desire unity in marriage and parenting; and that deep down in the hearts of children, they wish to be respectful, appreciative and supportive to their parents. This is why we have carefully designed our Family Coaching Program to help families realize these desires, to provide parents and children with the opportunity of finally working together to build a home that every family member is happy to come back to after challenging days at work and school.

According to Alex Nosa Ihama, the Executive Director of The Exhortation Institute of Life and Business Skills who, for many years, has being authoring articles about Marriage and Parenting and facilitating or keynoting Marriage Enrichment Forums and Parenting Enrichment Forums, as well as other life enriching seminars like Ultimate Leadership Conference, Mighty Men Convention, Career Crusade, and Proven Strategies of Success, "If there was ever a time for parents to come together and support one another in their individual and collective efforts to bring back trust, respect, encouragement and harmony into their respective families, it now. If there was ever a time for parents to have access to the strategic coaching that they require to be understood by their children, the strategic coaching to make their children feel heard, it is now."

 

Family Coaching Objective

Family Coaching is one of the distinct niches in the industry of Life Coaching, and our objective is to facilitate the realization of the true intentions of parents and their children, their innermost desire to love one another and be truly loved by one another.

In the words of Alex Nosa Ihama, "Despite what statistics indicates, or how we may often feel by the challenging and discouraging attitudes of our children, by our own incompetence as parents, and by the busyness of our careers, businesses, relationships, the truth is that parents and their children mean well for each other; and our Family Coaching offers the necessary guidance, access to valuable resources, knowledge of Proven Strategies of Success, and consistent encouragement and accountability to bridge the gap between your desires and your actions. We are the support system for the parents who make the honourable decision of getting the Family Coaching that is necessary for them to build brighter futures for their children, to maintain family harmony in this troubled times".

Family Coaching Benefits

Do you desire a harmonious family, a family where parents feel heard and children feel understood?

Do you yearn for the following in your family, between you and your spouse, between you and your children: Trust, Respect, Forgiveness, Support, Encouragement, Compassion, Sacrifice, Responsiveness, Understanding, Participation, Commitment, Collaboration, Integrity, Fairness, Unity, and Fun?

Do you long for guidance to better manage the impacts of your ever-increasing workload, barely-increasing salary, numerous after-school and after-work activities, extended and blended family dynamics, care for aging parents and young children, lack of basic morals and values in our societies, and the growing expectations that you have of your children, and the ones that they have of you?

Then don’t procrastinate! Contact us now for a free Family Coaching Session and initiate the process of infusing harmony into your family, even in the face of every adversity and opposition. Contact us now and join the increasing number of families worldwide that are being exhorted to “Think Deeply, Act Passionately, and Grow Steadily.”

Family Coaching Process

Our Family Coaching Process may require between 9 and 15 sessions within a span of 3 to 6 months, depending on the depth of your family situations. And as outlined in our Coaching Packages and our Coaching Strategy, we have never withheld our services from anyone because of scheduling, pricing and payments, and thus willing to amend the package, and even accommodate a payment plan that is more convenient for you.

Besides spending some time to get you, your spouse and children familiarized with the true gravity of your family situation, we employ our process of Six Steps to Parenting Fulfillment (often referred to as The GPS of Parenting), which has being successfully used to help people in diverse countries better align their families with the way that God intended for families to function. The steps are:

PURPOSE: We will work with you and your spouse to establish a Family Mission Statement, which will clearly define the agreeable desired family direction based on the values and expectations of you and your spouse. Basically, what are those family values that you would like to instil in your children and why? This is the stage where we will coach you and your spouse on how to leverage The Power of Purpose.

PRACTICE: We will work with you and your spouse to translate your new Family Mission Statement to actions and behaviours that support the purpose. Basically, which of these family values should you and/or your spouse start practicing and exemplifying for your children to see? This is the stage where we will coach you and your spouse on how to leverage The Power of Integrity.

PREACH: We will work with you and your spouse on how to effectively communicate your desires and expectations to your children in ways that are appropriate for their ages and intellect, in the languages that they understand, and feel understood. Basically, how and how often should you preach to your children, knowing fully well that the result of screaming is only temporal? This is the stage where we will coach you and your spouse on how to leverage The Power of Communication.

PRAISE: We will work with you and your spouse on how to make each other and your children feel appreciated, how to use words and actions to build up each other and garner their support for your Family Mission Statement. Basically, what are the words and actions of encouragement that would impact your children and encourage them to keep making the necessary effort to realize the purpose? This is the stage where we will coach you and your spouse on how to leverage The Power of Encouragement.

PLAY: We will work with you and your spouse to incorporate fun activities into your family life by sharing proven ways of easing the tensions often caused by daunting schedules and workload, as well as by the overwhelming expectations of those around you. Basically, what are the activities that would make your children feel loved, that would help to balance the atmosphere in your home? This is the stage where we will coach you and your spouse on how to leverage The Power of Relaxation.

PROTECT: We will work with you and your spouse to implement strategic ways of protecting your children from their own ignorance and detrimental characters in you, your spouse, their siblings, friends and extended families. Basically, how should you manage and mitigate the dangers that are always lurking around your children at school, sports, church and the community? This is the stage where we will coach you and your spouse on how to leverage The Power of Caution.

PRAY: We will work with you and your spouse to determine the matters in your family that need to be looked at from spiritual perspectives. Basically, while working hard to leverage spirituality to maintain effort and progress, what are the matters that should be placed in God’s hands through prayer? This is the stage where we will coach you and your spouse on how to leverage The Power of Surrender.

The Inconvenient Truth

The Inconvenient Truth is that you make or break your family by the amount of time you spend learning and practicing proven techniques of how to build and maintain these God-given relationships. Those who were surprised by the divorce offer from their spouse or the allegedly sudden wayward behaviour of their children failed to invest the time necessary to learn and practice techniques of how to keep their families together.

Contact us now to set your family apart from familial chaos and waywardness, to break the circle of dysfunctional families that are so prevalent in our societies. We invite you to join the increasing number of families worldwide that are being exhorted to “Think Deeply, Act Passionately, and Grow Steadily”, because children are only the future of tomorrow if their parents are part of a Family Coaching Program today.

“To put the world right in order, we must first put the nation in order; to put the nation in order, we must first put the family in order; to put the family in order, we must first cultivate our personal life; we must first set our hearts right.”

(Confucius)

“This is an excellent work!

I think the effort that you have put into this, based on what you have done/are doing with your family, is a great idea.

Purpose, Practice, Preach, Praise, Play and Pray: Simple, easy to remember (much effort to apply!), useful and biblical. Hopefully, this will be an effective tool and great help to many.

Personally, I love “The Family Fun Schedule”, including the weekly planning time! That may be one of the greatest needs in many families who already have a spiritual focus. My grown up children still love our family fun times together.

I commend you for doing this and for making it available.”

(Michael Lock)

"As the family goes, so goes the nation and so goes the whole world in which we live."

(Pope John Paul II)

In some families, please is described as the magic word. In our house, however, it was sorry.

(Margaret Laurence)

When our relatives are at home, we have to think of all their good points or it would be impossible to endure them.

(George Bernard Shaw)

The great gift of family life is to be intimately acquainted with people you might never even introduce yourself to, had life not done it for you.

(Kendall Hailey)

At the end of the day, a loving family should find everything forgivable.

(Mark V. Olsen & Will Sheffer)

“Live so that when your children think of fairness and integrity, they think of you”.

( H. Jackson Brown)

“If you only knew the power that you have over your children, you would never complain of being powerless”

(Alex Nosa Ihama)
