Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - Why I love being a Coach

My Office on Russian River I feel like I could write for DAYS about all the reasons I love being a coach, and yet the main one I want to tell you about today is how at a very challenging time in my life, my business supports me in healing, growing and expanding.


You know how I’ve chosen to respond to my son’s struggles by choosing to let him live at his Dads for 6 months… knowing my son was so upset with the 50/50 that he wanted to kill himself was horrid for a mom to hear. And courageously letting go to free him of the ‘vice’ he was in, dropping the tug of war and leaving him, letting go of the cat, my home, my things… it was huge for me.


I needed something to refuel me, nourish me, something to breathe life into me. And travel, adventure, nature and friends was my answer. Yet if I had a 9 to 5 job I would have stayed where I was and looked at my son’s empty room each night, afraid I’d run into him and his dad at the grocery store.


Allana coaching from her deck Yet because my job is virtual and so long as I have wifi, I can talk to clients, do my radio show and be interviewed, I can work from anywhere. This very morning I sat on a huge deck overlooking the Russian River surrounded my Redwoods and bluebirds, talking to a host who was interviewing me from London. I spoke with clients in DC, Boston, San Diego and Russia. I also went for a hike in the redwoods, a walk along the beach and had fresh clam chowder for lunch with my friend. AND I slept in until 8:30am and did yoga on the deck in the sunshine. And I get to do the same tomorrow. And I get to take Friday off and kayak down the river and have a beer at noon if I want! I did it! Celebrating bold brave raw adventure with girlfriend

This is because I’ve chosen to create a life of service as a coach. And because I have a sensational team that supports my community. And I wouldn’t trade it for the world… for it’s healing my heart as I’ve let go of my son, and nourishing my soul as I expand into the next phase of my evolution as a woman, a teacher and student of life.

Some of you have asked me to create a training and coaching certification program. I may. One day. But not today.


Happy 4th from Santa Barbara with my sister Aurora Winter! Yet on my journey just last week I stopped by my friend Aurora Winter’s home in Santa Barbara… we enjoyed champagne, dinner, hot tub, chatted for breakfast, both worked a few hours, then went shopping for sexy summer dresses together. She’s a coach too. YET she also trains coaches at the Grief Coach Academy.


So for now, she’s my top recommendation for becoming a certified coach. Aurora’s been MY coach as well in healing from the death of my mom and my divorce and yes, I’ve interviewed her on camera and audio and spoken at her events. What I LOVE about her coaching program is that she 1. teaches YOU to be a fabulous coach 2. heals YOU of any wounds so you can walk your talk and 3. guides you in creating a six figure coaching business AND 4. even has this new marketing guide that’s turnkey and off the charts easy to start making money right away.


Allana Pratt coaching So if becoming a coach, serving people, making six figures and having the flexibility to live a life that works for you no matter the circumstances… listen to this interview I did with Aurora on Intimate Conversations and take action to create a life that’s beyond your imagination.

Great love, deliciously yours, from the redwoods, Allana xoox

SMART Goals 101: Goal Setting Examples, Templates, and Tips - Brian Tracy

I think you’ll agree with me when I say: We’ve all heard that SMART goals are important . But a lot of people are left with questions about them, for example: What exactly are they? How do we use them correctly? Are they really contributing to your success? Here’s the deal: When it comes to achieving success, one of the most important steps that you can take is setting good goals. It is also important to recognize, though, that not all goals are created equal. In this article, we’ll take a look at a special class of goals called SMART goals and how you can use them to heighten your chances of success. FREE SUCCESS TOOL: Brian Tracy’s 14-Step-Goal-Setting Guide What is a Goal? A goal can be any objective that you set for yourself and push yourself to achieve. Sometimes that goal may be small (like waking up an hour earlier than you normally do) and sometimes it may be larger (like earning a promotion). But here’s the kicker: While having goals of all kinds is almost

bosanchez - The Bias of Fathers

One day, I was at a Christmas party. And parents were forcing their small kids to sing, bribing them with lollipops to banana splits to doll houses to Boracay vacations. One father — a friend of mine whose name I won’t divulge as it would be hazardous to my health — brought his little five-year-old daughter to the front. Because he even had a Minus One prepared, we thought, “She must really be a good singer.” So everyone clapped their hands and cheered as the music started. Then the five-year-old began to sing. Or at least made some kind of sharp noise.  But she didn’t get one key right. The cute little girl was absolutely tone deaf. From beginning to end, she sounded so awful, the experience was similar to having an endoscopy without the anesthesia. But the father was right beside me, still taking photos, still smiling from ear to ear, his eyes glued to his little daughter. He looked at me and smiled, “She may not sound right, but can you see how lovely she sways her hips?” Th
