Hello, am I Samantha Dee?
Yes, you read that right. My real name is – Samantha Diegutis. That’s not me being shady or fake, it’s just that ‘Dee’ is easier to type and remember than ‘Diegutis’. I’m five feet tall, hate mashed potato and peanut butter. I love making people laugh. I live in England with my two disgustingly cute cats and Gerard Butler still hasn’t called. Jimi Hendrix and Monty Python are my spirit animals. I like red hair and things that are purple. I’m also a Life Coach.
I recently wrote a book, called ‘My Big Fat…Fat’ – about my personal experiences around dieting, self-esteem and fatness. What came out of that me got me thinking. I had two epiphanies, really. That I can’t be the only one who has had or is currently having these experiences and also, that I want to help men and women who are.
What’s more, I’m still on a journey of sorts, so I’m right there with you.
Examples of What I Can Help With:
Accepting responsibility and learning that ‘you ARE enough’
Ending the vicious cycle of failed dieting.
Food addiction.
Emotional and/or Secret Eating.
Anxiety and Depression
Body Image / Self Esteem (what IS perfect, anyway?)
Transition and Change (to-from just about anything)
Achievable and realistic plans and scheduling
Finding out who you really truly are and what you really truly want.
Stepping out of your comfort zone.
Are You Qualified?
One of the most basic required qualifications for becoming a Life Coach is to truly and authentically ‘give a shit’ about people. After that it’s all just ‘fluff’. I’d rather have someone who’s been there and can help me get out of ‘my hole’ than someone with a clip-board and a framed certificate. That said, I am continuing some of the most profound training known in the field, currently. If it matters to you, my credentials can be verified here.
Why am I Different?
What I found though is that most ‘conventional’ coaches seem to adopt the same kind of ‘theme’ – and whilst I’m sure it suits most, that theme doesn’t gel with me.
Authenticity is my most treasured value. I didn’t want to give up any part of my personality to become a Life Coach.
Well, I have no ‘masks’. Whilst you might see the odd ‘fluffy’ inspirational message on my site and pages, they are ones I believe to have meaning. What you get with me is me. My experiences, my experience. I listen intently. You won’t see me solving all your problems, but I am an expert at guiding you to solve them yourself.
Because really, this is all that’s going to ‘stick’ isn’t it?
If any of this chimes a bell with you, then I’d love to chat to you. Book a “Coffee and Chat” using the appointment link, and we can both decide whether a coaching relationship would be fulfilling.
I know I know, I said ‘shit’ earlier. I’ve been known to, on occasion.
Love, love.
