Once you are enrolled, you'll receive an account on the Big Life Solutions website, which is your private area for all of your Big Life programmes and resources.

Everything is run through your Big Life account - session bookings, sharing session notes and reflections, session resources, and so on. It's essentially your one-stop-shop for everything Big Life.

The only exception is the sessions themselves, which are all accessed through Zoom. So, if you don't already have one, you will need a free Zoom account.

To make it as easy as possible for you to find the time and energy to show up fully present and fully engaged at each of your sessions - whether that's a debrief, or coaching - all sessions are held online.

We do the session over Zoom and not only is this easy and convenient, it has a number of extra advantages too.

For example, if you like to have a permanent record of your session to reflect on, you can have it recorded. If you are out of town, or experiencing device issues, you have multiple options to still make your session. And, if you need to shift things around and rearrange your session, the logistics of using Zoom rather than going in-person makes it super-easy to do.

OK, there are two parts to this answer.

Each of your coached debrief sessions are around two-hours long, give or take a few minutes either way. This allows us to go into detail, and gives you a chance to really explore the aspects of your assessment report that resonate as well as those that maybe have you scratching your head a little.

If you add coaching to your programme, those sessions last for an hour each. That said, I make myself available via WhatsApp if you need to check in for any reason between sessions.

Ideally, you need to be 100% committed to your coaching and attending your sessions needs to be your number one priority, if you are to get maximum value from them.

But, I totally understand that life can throw curveballs that derail even the best laid plans, and schedules have to change. So, if you can't make a session, rearranging it is fine.

However, there is a caveat to that: other than in exceptional circumstances, I need you to give me 24 hours notice that you want to reschedule. As long as you do that, you keep your session and can book it for another day.

If you simply don't show up to your session without letting me know you can't make it, however, that session will be classed as having been held and you will forfeit it. In other words, you miss out on that session.

I use two tools in this programme: Spotlight and OpenMind.

Spotlight deals with mindset and behaviour preferences and is focused on developing adaptability and resilience.

OpenMind looks at intrinsic (subconscious) and extrinsic (conscious) thoughts, attitudes, and beliefs. It highlights discrepancies and alignment between how you really feel and how you present yourself to the world. Understanding where there is discrepancy and where there is alignment helps you to develop strategies to live with authenticity, which is key to wellbeing and, in particular, effective leadership.

Both tools involve an online assessment which takes around 20 minutes at most, and both produce a detailed report based on your responses. It is those reports that form the basis of your coached debriefs and, generally, inform the direction you want your coaching to take.

There's more information in the programme brochure, which you can read online or download for later by clicking on it higher up this page.

Absolutely! There are a variety of resources available.

First, you get your Assessment Report for the assessments you took. And, for your debrief, you get a detailed workbook.

After your debrief, you get a recording of the session, detailed session notes, and a set of guides to help you understand more about each of the elements in the reports. You will also get any tools that we agree are relevant as we move through each debrief process.

If you have added coaching to your programme, you'll get tools that align with your coaching goals to help you gain and maintain momentum. 

You will also have access to both the Big Life and MindMastery communities, hosted on biglifesolutions.com, where you can connect with other people taking coaching and training programmes, so that you can expand your network, your knowledge, and your horizons even further.
