General Coaching Questions
Why sign up for coaching?

Liza uses Zoom as an online platform to meet with her clients.

Liza lists all of her costs on the website for transparency and clarity.
Are there any discounts or special offers?

What is the difference between Personal Coaching and Counseling
There are similarities between coaching and counseling, both encourage you to process intentionally. Coaching is a very future and goal oriented practice, whereas counseling tends to focus more on the past. Coaching with Liza will touch on inner work and move you towards optimizing the opportunities in your life by creating intentional action steps toward your own personalized incredible outcomes.
Getting Set Up
I signed up for One on One coaching, now what?
Congratulations! You have taken the first step towards measurable growth! Liza uses a client portal (see above) for all of her one on one clients. Your next step is to set up your profile in the portal. Then you will begin the Welcome Orientation, a short course introducing you to the foundations of coaching with Liza.
How do I set up my profile?
On your Better By Design Portal Screen, you will find your name with a drop down arrow at the top right of the screen. Click the arrow, choose “My Account” and then set up your profile. Please absolutely add a picture of yourself and be sure that your time zone is selected.
How do I schedule an appointment?
On your Better By Design Portal Screen, below your name there is a blue “+Appointment” button, click here and you will see open coaching slots with Liza. You may choose one appointment at a time or all the appointments in your package at once.
How do I prepare for my first session?
Prior to your first session there is a Welcome Orientation, a short course introducing you to the foundations of coaching with Liza. This is a self-guided course, it may take you a weekend, it may take you up to two weeks. Please be sure you have scheduled your first session with Liza giving yourself enough time to go through the course. You can find it in the portal in the folder “Courses” on the left menu of your screen.
Coaching Sessions
How long is a coaching session?
Each coaching session is 50 minutes long.
How often are coaching sessions?
Typically when you purchase a package coaching sessions happen weekly. There is always the opportunity to reschedule 1-2 sessions depending on your coaching package.
What responsibilities do I have outside of a coaching session?
Moving the needle in your life requires you to do the work between sessions. After every session you will complete a three question worksheet about the session. Each week you will fill out a Reflection and Intention Worksheet. Additionally Liza will assign you 3-5 Intentional Action steps. All of this is easily found and tracked in the portal for you.
What if I need to cancel a session?
Not a problem, things happen. You may go to the portal and select the appointment that you would like to change and either cancel it or reschedule it. We do ask for 24 hours notice and only 1-2 cancellations per package.

Liza shared so much with me during our time together (videos, coaching pages and worksheets) – How do I continue to access them?
Any insight videos or writings are the intellectual property of Liza, please do not share directly with others. You are able to access these on the client portal for a month after coaching. Please download or email copies to yourself of any zoom videos or worksheets that you want to keep for your own use.
