“A coach has the questions.
You have the answers.
As your coach, I’ll help you discover how to
Be your best.”

People hire a coach for one of three reasons. Either to break through a barrier that’s been holding them back, identify and reach their next stretch goal, or enhance their personal leadership skills.

I can help you achieve all three.

I’m Carol Goldsmith, the developer of a proprietary coaching model that has helped clients on four continents achieve breakthrough results in record time. This includes executives, entrepreneurs, managers, sales representatives, human resource professionals, recruiters, teachers, students, authors, trainers, and fellow coaches who know that conventional success wisdom just isn’t enough.

Conventional wisdom says that the best way to succeed is to emulate a successful role model. That explains why, when people are struggling or stuck, they turn to outside experts for “how-to” advice—must of which doesn’t work for them. I take a completely different approach.

I help clients discover the secrets to succeeding and leading in the last place people think to look: inside their own direct experience. That is where success leaves clues.
The fact is, you already know how to achieve whatever you set your mind to. Your life is proof positive of that. Somewhere in your memory bank, a past success has been stored away that relates to the outcome you want now—even if you don’t yet think so. The thinking mind can only hold so much. If thinking long and hard about a problem actually solved it, all of us would be problem-free.

Through coaching, my clients learn how to access past successes and discover what made those experiences possible. Suddenly, strengths, skills, and best practices that had gone unnoticed before are revealed to be part of a natural success process that they can adapt and use again. When past experience informs future success, the result is what I call a positive Return on Experience—yours.

This site provides a brief introduction to this powerful work. Of course, the real proof of that power lies in your direct experience. So whether you are an individual seeking greater success and satisfaction, or a leader dedicated to helping others excel, I invite you to contact me now and experience the results for yourself.

Be your best,
Carol
