Feeling stuck in your career or life direction?
Gain clarity, create an actionable plan, and move forward with confidence - without the overwhelm.
What is alignment coaching?
From confusion to clarity in 6 sessions.
The alignment coaching process helps you remove difficult barriers to making big life and career decisions.
This process enables you to see your situation from a new perspective, and guides you align your actions and your goals with what you value most.
Ultimately, you will clarify your path forward and feel confident taking steps to achieve your next big pivot.
Limitless
You can get coaching on literally any topic. The process centers on a line of questioning that can be adapted to whatever topic you choose.
Pragmatic
Each session supports you in taking immediate action, however small or large, to move you toward your goal.
Solutions-oriented
Coaching moves you out of analysis paralysis by expanding your perspective. You will see your situation more clearly and be more aware of the myriad of solutions available to you.
Strategic
I lend my strategic mind to your transformation process. This process looks at the whole ecosystem of your life, from dreams to responsibilities, family to hobbies.
Pragmatically speaking…
✓ You will have six one-hour sessions online. You come with a goal or a generalized desire, and we collaborate to help you clarify that goal and the path toward achieving it.
✓ We are co-responsible for each session: my job is to provide prompts and thought experiments for you to try, and your responsibility is to be honest with yourself and to be 100% focused on the session.
✓ By the end of each session, you will have selected key action steps to move yourself forward toward your goals.
✓ Within 6 sessions, you will have an action plan and feel confident that your next steps are truly aligned with your priorities, your goals and your values.
✓ By the end, you’ll already have started taking action, and you will feel ready to continue moving forward on your goal independently.
“Coaching helped me clarify my goals and design effective strategies to attain them.”

Book a free call
Before we jump into coaching, let’s introduce ourselves in a brief 30-minute discovery call.
We can discuss your challenges and your goals, and I can answer any questions about alignment coaching. Together we can evaluate whether this process is the right fit for your goals.
Sessions will be…
Offering you a calm presence is important, because it provides you the space and peace to roam around your thoughts and review your experiences with as much freedom as possible.
Grounded
I will be your biggest supporter. Whatever you decide is right for you, I will champion your efforts and help you see where you have made more progress than you might give yourself credit for.
Joy-filled
I give you my undivided attention during the entire coaching session. Every question and thought experiment is carefully chosen to help you connect the dots and experience aha moments.
Focused
Each session provides you the space to explore next steps and to decide which actions are aligned with your values. You leave with a set of micro actions that you are enthusiastic about completing.
Productive
Zero advice.
This is why alignment coaching is so successful.
Research shows: people do not follow the advice they receive.
Research on behavior change suggests that people are more likely to sustain goals that are connected to their values and motivations, as opposed to blindly following the advice of a mentor, teacher or doctor. To explore this more, search for research on self-concordant goal pursuit or motivational interviewing for health-related behavior change.
Also, how many of us have read an article or taken a class telling us about a really important behavior change for our health, and then we Did Not Follow Through on that brilliant advice? That’s what the research shows. We humans do not blindly do what we are advised to do.
People make life changes and keep habits when these changes feel aligned with their values and identity.
When we believe the new behavior, habit or life change is profoundly aligned with our identity, or we believe this change will bring us something we hold a strong desire for, the decision is easy.
That’s why alignment coaching is so successful.
We do a deep-dive exploration of what you really want and all the possible hurdles, as well as all the paths to get there. We evaluate the alignment of these goals and solutions with your identity, your passions, your priorities, and your obligations.
Before you accept any change or path forward, you get to decide if it is in line with what you truly want. You remain in the driver’s seat.
That means you’re more likely to follow through long-term.
“Tammy’s ability to ask thought-provoking questions and provide constructive feedback encouraged me to self-reflect and gave me the space I needed for personal growth.”

Meet the Coach
Hello, I’m Tammy Mayer, your alignment coach. I’ve been using this values-alignment process to help my clients achieve their goals since 2023.
I believe every person has the ability to transform their lives - even in the most complicated situations. Everyone’s life and situation is unique, and the Universe’s time is unpredictable.
And yet, we have more control in our lives than we give ourselves credit for. And sometimes a tiny shift can have a tremendous impact.
Your transformation is possible.
Is this therapy?
No, coaching is not therapy. Coaching cannot help you recover from trauma or address emotional wounds you are healing from.
Therapy is complementary to coaching and is highly recommended to if you face strong emotions that are impacting your life and behavior.
Coaching is focused on values-aligned action planning.
In coaching, emotions sometimes come up, which is entirely natural and human. We honor those emotions, and their presence may inform the action planning that is our focus.
“Working with Tammy, I created well-defined action plans and belief plans.
With these in place, I have been able to stay focused and motivated, consistently moving toward my desired outcomes. I’m pleased with the progress I made.”

A compassionate and confidential approach
Activation Coaching applies a compassion-first approach.
This process takes into consideration the specific circumstances of the individual, and offers compassion even when you may be struggling with self-compassion.
There is absolutely no judgment for any thought, decision, choice, desire or action that you have. Every human has a unique way of living. Your uniqueness is respected fully, and as your coach, I honor your truth and your choices, whatever they may be.
Every detail shared in the coaching sessions is confidential.
Your privacy is of utmost importance and I adhere to the ICF Code of Ethics.
Coaching works when there is complete honesty with oneself and with the coach, not because the coach needs to know all the juicy details (she does not), but because being honest with yourself is what allows you to make well-aligned decisions.
To the extent allowed by law, and in accordance with the ICF Code of Ethics, I keep every detail of our sessions in complete confidentiality.
We can discuss this more during the free discovery call.
What to expect in your coaching sessions
Coaching sessions happen online and the coach’s job is to ask thought-provoking questions and listen deeply as you describe your goals, values, priorities and concerns. The coach makes insightful observations with compassion, so that you can see your situation from a new perspective.
Life is complex, with a need to consider the people your goal might impact, your financial situation, your mental and physical health needs, the communities you are a part of, your well-being and hobbies, your responsibilities, the people who depend on you, as well as the future needs of you and your family.
Your life is an ‘ecosystem’. And each decision you make is affected by different parts of the ecosystem – and vice versa.
Coaching helps you see the whole ecosystem of your life. With that clear vision, you’re in an excellent position to brainstorm solutions that you wouldn’t normally consider.
By the end of each session, you will see your situation with greater clarity and you will have selected key action steps to move yourself forward toward your goals.
“The coaching sessions were incredibly helpful in making me aware that I needed to create space in my personal life before taking on a new business idea.
I also learned to identify areas where I was spending time that were not necessarily aligned with my values or goals. I mapped out a new schedule and created the space needed.”

A breakdown of each session
Session 1
We explore your goal/challenge/wish, and we evaluate the areas of your life where this may have (or is having) an impact. We gain clarity on your values and what’s most important to you in order to move toward greater alignment. We end with clarity on the overall objective for the coaching cycle of 6 sessions, as well as an action plan to take next steps before the next session.
We take a holistic view of your goal for the cycle and create thought-provoking experiences to uncover your unconscious beliefs and mental barriers. We also evaluate your actions through the lens of your unique values and priorities. During these sessions, we look for internal and external resources that can support your transformation, and we collaborate to remove obstacles. Each session includes time to create an action plan fpr you to take steps between each session.
Sessions 2-4
Sessions 5-6
We solidify an ongoing action plan for you to continue your transformation beyond the 6-session cycle. We address any outstanding hurdles that you may need to overcome in order to move your plan forward. We prepare you to independently implement your plan by checking the alignment of the plan with competing priorities and the current circumstances. We solidify your motivation for the transformation you desire and anchor your action plan in your strengths so that the outcomes are successful and long-lasting.
Let’s have a quick call to determine if alignment coaching is the right path for your goals.

Six-Session Package
By the end of six one-hour sessions, clients see their path forward with extraordinary clarity and come away feeling positively transformed. At this point, they are independent and fully on the path toward their values-aligned goals.
One client admitted that she was skeptical of this proposed outcome, but during the sixth and final session she shared that she had also achieved this surprising outcome.
Six 60-minute sessions:
$450 (or 450€) for the package.
Three-Session Package
A three-session package may be perfect for you if you feel very confused and haven’t yet clarified your goal. This can add clarity and help you determine if you’re ready to make the full transformation you’ve been thinking about.
Once you are committed to your goal, adding another three sessions will get you to the full transformation, and leave you independent in achieving your goal.
Three 60-minute sessions:
$250 (or 250€) for the package.
Payment Timelines: The payment is made after both parties have agreed on the contract terms, and before the first session. For the six-session package, the payment may be split into two: half before the first session, and half before the fourth session.
Session length and scheduling
Sessions last one hour.
Coaching schedules are flexible. Some clients prefer meeting once a week, because their process is moving very quickly. Other clients have goals that require more time between sessions, and neither is better than the other. It is also possible to change the rhythm to adapt to the shifting needs and priorities of the client.
