Welcome to Marilyn C. O’Leary’s Website and Blog
I guide adventurous adults to a life of fulfillment through positive encouragement, accountability, and deep learning.
Becoming a life coach was a natural career progression for me. I had been a teacher; an attorney who also mentored, spoke, and planned CLEs; an administrator who nurtured staff members to grow in their professions; and the director of a law school institute that fostered interdisciplinary collaboration. The themes of my work were education, mentorship, fostering growth, and collaboration. I supported people to use their creativity doing work they for which they had a passion.
After I retired from UNM, I accepted an invitation from a friend to observe a coach training program in California. The opportunity to learn about coaching people on how to accomplish goals and make changes in their lives ignited my enthusiasm. I researched certified coaching programs and enrolled in CTI, one of the oldest professional coach accreditation programs in the US. http://www.thecoaches.com/ As a lawyer, I wanted a professionally run, credentialed program that adhered to a code of ethics. I completed CTI’s coursework and certification program and now work as a professional coach to help people make changes in their professional and personal lives to achieve their goals.
I believe that life can be fulfilling at any stage and any age. Whether you’re a practicing lawyer, a business executive, or a retired professional, you can benefit from the services of a professional coach. If you’re overworked, underutilized, too busy, or in the doldrums, life coaching can help you.
