What is a life coach?
"Part consultant, part motivational speaker, part therapist, and part rent-a-friend, coaches work with managers, entrepreneurs, and just plain folks, helping them define and achieve their goals — career, personal, or most often, both." - Newsweek
Who works with a life coach?
"Entrepreneurs, executives, business leaders, actors, musicians, creative people, managers, small business owners, start-ups, professionals and home-makers all reach their goals with the help of a life coach. If there is a gap between where you are now and where you want to be, there is room for life coaching. Not only will your life coach help you close the gap, your life coach will help you break through your limited beliefs and challenge you to think bigger." - Talane Miedaner, Life Coach
Why have a Life Coach Minister?
"Public Management revealed a study where training alone was compared to life coaching combined with training. The study showed that training alone increased productivity by 22.4% while training combined with weekly life coaching increased productivity by 88%." Article, LifeCoach.com
As a life coach minister, we combine the accredited life coaching aspects with spiritual guidance from a Godly perspective to assist the client in both the practical, spiritual, and Godly aspects of their lives. Since all things visible and current in our lives are first derived from a spiritual place, to assist in making desired changes in oneself that will produce any long-lasting and optimal results, it must first be dealt with from the spiritual plane on a soul level. These kinds of results and changes cannot be reached by simply cutting the weed from its roots, but by digging below the root surface and cleaning it out so the root and weed can never grow there again.
Only God can heal the soul, but God uses his gifted ones to assist others in His process. Many do not understand the dynamics of the invisible, spiritual realm, or how God works in our lives and goes unnoticed and misunderstood. This is one of the greatest benefits of a spiritual advisor (not a psychic); one who has the gift to see and discern in the spirit and soul, provide assistance to help understand, create new behaviors, build strength and new behaviors that help the client dissolve and overcome these hidden enemies, bringing the unknown into the known. Also, the life coach minister will help them to discover their true, authentic selves, their God-given gifts, and how to access the supernatural power of God in every area of their life and create the true wealth and life they were intended to live.
If you cannot see your enemy, you cannot defeat your enemy.
Who is Gabriella?
Gabriella is a gifted teacher, healer, adviser, coach, and mentor who is anointed with the spirit of God to discern the underlying truths that are taking place in one's life that will bring understanding and peace. This understanding inevitably brings about peace, which also provides clarity. This can be powerful when unsure of which direction to take in life, business, relations, etc., and know with confidence how to proceed. With her many gifts, Gabriella has worked with youth in and out of the arts, and adult parents, business owners, leaders, artists, etc. for over 25 years as a Spiritual Teacher and Adviser.
Why Entertainment?
As a former model, dancer, stage performer, commercial actor, songwriter, and singer, Gabriella had always felt drawn to helping others do what they desired to do. While working for a modeling/talent agency, she often found herself answering questions from parents who wanted to get their kids into the business or had no clue how the business operated as a parent. This led her to create an instructional manual for parents with children in the industry (Parent Talent Management). After leaving the agency, she found herself talking a lot to her daughter's friends about getting into the business. This led her to begin First Step, a consulting service for youth to discover their talents and reach their dreams. This love for teaching and empowering youth to realize their dreams turned into a full-blown curriculum program for disadvantaged and gifted youth who are pursuing the performing arts who do not have support, funds, self-confidence, or family to help them along their way (Success Opportunity Achievement & Reward in America; 1994/ Stand Out And Rise America; 2016), with the vision for a Youth Center - The Betterment of Music & Arts Center(BMAC) where youth can come and feel a part of something with other like-minded youth and feel they fit in.
From 1994 to 2011, Gabriella worked in her program within the city of Kent, WA, and local schools. She served on various nonprofit boards and participated in countless fundraisers for the community, schools, and families. The Kent Public Schools adopted her program as an after-school and summer program in 2006 through the African American Cultural & Convention Center, for which she was the Executive & Program Director.
In 2004 she was called into ministry; in 2010 she received her assignment as an Entertainnent Spiritual Advisor. In 2011, she suffered the loss of her father, which had a great effect on her life, at which point her life took on a new path. In 2012 she published her first book From Slave Girl to Queen. Gabriella has dedicated her life to helping heal the souls of people and teaching God's ways for life success. This is more than a calling for Gabriella, "It is who I am!" she states. As my dear friend used to always tell me every time I reached out to help someone, "There you go, you can’t help it; it’s like breathing for you."
