Connie believes in results. That is why she does NOT recommend her program to every child. In order to achieve results, the child must be open to improvement and learning a new way of “positive” thinking. Not every child is ready and that’s okay. It is for that reason, all new clients schedule a “Discovery” Session first. From that session, the parent and child becomes more familiar with Connie’s approach and whether it’s a good fit for both Connie and the client.

YES! The Discovery Session is great as Connie teaches your child (in that one session) how they’ve been holding themselves back AND how to start feeling better right away! Sometimes, that is the only thing a child may need at the moment or may be considered an alternative if the parent/child cannot commit to the Start Loving Life Program at this time. The programs are geared towards those individuals who can commit and want to make long-lasting changes that greatly improve and influence their self-esteem, attitude, and potential in life.

This isn’t therapy. Connie is not a therapist, doctor, or licensed mental health professional. Connie is someone who years ago after much research and her own personal frustrations discovered simple, easy self-help tools & techniques that helped her change her life from negative to positive FAST. It isn’t hard and it’s quite simple if you know what to do. Once Connie realized how easy it could be, she wanted to teach others so they didn’t have to struggle like she did.

Many people reach out to Connie for all different reasons; stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, negative thinking, problematic love life, work life, school stuff, friend issues, you name it. But what most people don’t realize, which is at the heart of all the Start Loving Life teachings, is everything you feel & attract in life is ALWAYS based on your self-image of you. EVERYTHING. People are very self-critical of themselves. Unfortunately, we are taught that growing up. Connie’s programs are created in such a way where she teaches your child how to incorporate a new positive way of thinking about themselves first and foremost to replace their negative, self-critical way of thinking. It takes only 30 days to break a habit, and that’s basically the only problem most people and kids have. Hence, why Connie’s clients see improvement in as little as 30 days, provided they follow the program of course 🙂

Whether your child would be a candidate for Connie’s program will be a result of their “Discovery” Session. Connie LOVES teaching kids how to LOVE life but she also does not love wasting your time or your money :-). Her goal is to get your child the best results possible based on her teachings and their commitment to the program. If your child is not an ideal candidate, Connie may offer other outside resources other than her programs.

If your child is a candidate and you’re interested in moving forward, all clients begin with the Start Loving Life® 30 Day Program. Sometimes that is all a child needs. At the completion of the 30 Day Program, your child may extend and continue onto the 60 Day Program and/or 90 Day program, if he 0r she chooses to and Connie sees it fit.

Connie does not. She is NOT a licensed mental health professional. She is a certified health & life coach that created her own lifestyle philosophy “Start Loving Life” in 2007 after her own frustrations with life.

Her teachings are not from a textbook as Connie does not believe in traditional psychology. She believes in a more holistic approach as that is what has worked for her. Her desire to take the holistic route was after her own experience trying therapy when she was younger. It was not helpful to her and instead, she left the session feeling as if her childhood (which was pretty good) was to blame for her existing problems. This was not a solution for her at all. She left the session feeling worse. She wanted to feel empowered and better, not place blame or look to her past. That’s what inspired her to start her own journey of self-discovery. She quickly learned it what not only possible to LOVE LIFE, but that anyone could do it, and your past has no bearing on your future. Since then, she’s been hooked!

Everything she teaches is based on her own personal lifestyle of being happy, positive, and loving life. She walks her talk because she knows it to be true and that’s what she believes.

Any type of coaching is an investment in yourself. But as Connie always preaches, an investment in yourself is the only investment that ever guarantees a return :-). How can anyone really argue with that?
