Life Coaching

My name is DeVona Smith, and I was first trained as a Life Coach in 2019 by the DYL Stanford Studio. I continued on to provide life coaching in higher education and the community. I specialize in assisting people in identifying and achieving their goals by coping with difficulties that cause them anguish, worry, and stress.

My prior job experiences include mental health, domestic violence, trauma, prevention, crisis intervention, higher education instructor, and advisor, all of which were career highlights.

My faith, love, trauma, and education are just a few of the things that have shaped me into the person I am today. As your life coach, I will be a part of your team. A team is a GOOD thing, and it can include you and one or more other individuals. I hope to be one of those people. Come in and chat with me soon.

The life coaching process is the only human improvement process that focuses completely on YOU!

Life coaches are equal partners who assist you to improve and grow as a person who achieves their goals. Life coaches turn you into a World Leading Expert on YOU!

Coaches also assist you in executing the actions necessary in achieving your goals. You have virtual control over the results you achieve through coaching, because you set the coaching goals, and the coaching process assures you achieve them.

Your coach will focus his or her full energy and attention on you achieving your goals. Your coach serves as the totally objective, nonjudgmental, supportive mirror into whom you really are and what you really want to do.

Your coach will provide life options, new perspectives, encouragement, and concentrated attention giving you the insight, and confidence, to take life-improving actions towards your goals.

They assist in identifying your self-imposed obstacles and further guide you towards overcoming them to reaching your goals.

The value of the goals you achieve greatly exceeds the cost of coaching. You set your coaching goals most valuable and important to you.

There are also other, hidden benefits of coaching frequently worth more than the value of the goals achieved.

The benefits from improving as a person are priceless such as reducing or eliminating your life stresses, improving your attitude about life, improving your relationships with others, etc.

Coaches have the “Gift of Coaching” when they naturally care more about others than themselves.

Coaches with the “gift” place the success of their clients first and completely, because their ego, their intuition, their passions, and their personal values revolve around assisting others.
