Do you ever ask yourself:
What makes me unique or sets me apart in a world full of coaches? Aka: Your special sauce.
Why do clients choose to work with me?
How can I effectively market my unique strengths and approach?
Am I even cut out for this? 🤯
YouMap®: Discover your coaching style. Elevate your Practice. Transform lives.
YouMap® is an award-winning, holistic, self-discovery tool that uses four assessments to uncover your strengths, values, motivating skills, and personality-based interests.
The Four Pillars™ Overview
Strengths explain how you show up naturally in the world. Understanding your strengths allows you to leverage your natural talents and set clear priorities for how you show up in your coaching sessions. This insight allows you to tailor your coaching approach to maximize impact and effectiveness.
Values explain why you do what you do. They are the driving force behind your motivations and decisions. By aligning your coaching practice with your core values, you can create more meaningful and authentic connections with your clients, ensuring that your sessions are effective and deeply fulfilling.
Skills explain what you like doing. As a coach, understanding which skills you are most motivated to use allows you to focus on what you do best. This clarity helps you decide what aspects of your business to prioritize, what to delegate, and where to seek additional support, ensuring that you spend your time on activities that energize and inspire you.
Personality explains our interests. Knowing your interests will help you gain insight into your intrinsic motivators and guide a healthier and more YOU path forward in your practice. Understanding your intrinsic motivators helps you align your coaching style with your natural inclinations, making your sessions more engaging and effective for both you and your clients.
I remember those early coaching days - my head spinning like a washing machine on high speed! So many "shoulds" and "musts" from every corner of the coaching world.
Be this! Do that! Niche down!
My inner critic was working overtime.
Then I met Allegra Stein, and suddenly, I could breathe again. She introduced me to YouMap®, and I'll admit, I was nervous. What if it revealed I wasn't cut out for coaching? (Spoiler alert: My inner critic is a terrible liar, and there are no set strengths, values, or skills you HAVE to have to be a good coach!)
YouMap® was like finding a life preserver in choppy coaching waters. It illuminated my natural strengths and showed me how to leverage them. Suddenly, I had clarity on who I wanted to work with and how to market my unique gifts.
My mind was blowing up with new ideas on how to uplevel my practice.
Now, I want to toss you that same life preserver. 🛟

Frequently asked questions.
What is a YouMap®?
YouMap® is a powerful tool that helps you clarify who you are as a coach. It explores your strengths, values, motivating and burnout skills, and personality-based interests. By understanding these aspects, you can leverage your unique qualities to enhance your coaching practice and better connect with your clients.
How does YouMap® help me understand my coaching style?
YouMap® dives deep into your priorities, personality traits, skills, and values to uncover your natural coaching style. Whether you're empathetic and nurturing or analytical and strategic, YouMap® reveals how you naturally show up as a coach, allowing you to play to your strengths and approach coaching authentically.
Why is self-awareness important for coaches, and how does YouMap® enhance this?
Self-awareness is crucial for coaches because it forms the foundation of effective coaching relationships. YouMap® enhances self-awareness by providing a comprehensive profile of your strengths, blind spots, and unique attributes. This awareness helps you understand your impact on clients and adapt your approach to meet their needs more effectively.
How does YouMap® align with my coaching goals and professional development?
YouMap® helps coaches enhance their practice by providing deep self-awareness of their strengths, values, motivating skills, and personality-based interests. This insight allows coaches to develop a more authentic and effective coaching style, identify areas for professional growth, and tailor their services to leverage their unique attributes. By understanding their own profile, coaches can better match with clients, set aligned professional goals, and boost their confidence.
How can YouMap® help me navigate challenges in my coaching practice?
Challenges in coaching often stem from misalignment between the coach's approach and the client's needs. YouMap® equips you with insights into your natural tendencies and styles of working with others. This awareness enables you to adapt your coaching techniques and strategies to meet the diverse needs of your clients better, fostering stronger and more impactful coaching relationships.
What makes YouMap® different from other assessments?
YouMap® is designed to be actionable, intuitive, and comprehensive. It doesn't put people in boxes and is suitable for use in situations where one-dimensional assessments may not be appropriate, such as hiring. YouMap® stands out by combining four key pillars (strengths, values, skills, and interests) into one integrated tool. This comprehensive approach provides a more complete picture of an individual, making it versatile for various coaching scenarios, from career development to personal growth.
