FAQ: An Interview with Jessica Sabatini

Please read this before your Complimentary Consultation with Jessica:

How did you come to be a Life reDirection Strategist?
I have always been a very goal driven person who loves single-minded focus. In high school, I struggled between choosing a career in Psychology, Mathematics, or Theatre. Of course the more glamorous won, and I decided to be an actor and director. Quickly opening my own production company and studying veraciously. At the age of 24, I moved to NYC to further my career in theatre. I began in that big city knowing no one, having no job, and no place to live. Within three short years, I was the production manager of an Off Broadway Theatre company, lived in a great, little apartment, and was in a healthy, loving, supportive relationship with a terrific guy. Everything seemed to be going wonderfully.

Then on October 28, 2005, I was coming out of a theatre on 42nd Street and got the call that my my only sister had breast cancer. This news stopped me in my tracks. Thinking of my sister, a single mom going through chemotherapy all alone, made my happy, little life lose its meaning. What was the point when someone I loved was experiencing so much pain. Suddenly, my priorities shifted. I woke up the next morning no longer interested in theatre. I wanted to find a way to make a more direct, positive impact on the people around me.

As I began to look at the possibilities, I became very discouraged. I didn't have many technical skills, except I knew how to put on a good show and live a happy life. I didn't see how those could be useful skills. I felt completely lost. For someone who had always been so goal driven, this lack of direction put me into an identity crisis. Activities that had always brought me joy seemed trivial. For months, I wandered around aimlessly, saying "My life has no meaning! I have no idea what's the purpose of my life!" One day, I sat calm and quiet and asked the Universe, "Could you just send me someone, a person I can talk to, to help me figure this out? Like a guide?"

Two days later, a life coach called. Actually, she called my then boyfriend (now husband), but he didn't feel like talking. So he handed me the phone saying "Can you get rid of this woman for me?" I'd never heard of a life coach before. As she described what she did: helping others gain clarity in their lives and create a life they love, I said a silent Thank You to the Universe. I told the woman I had a great idea, "How about, my boyfriend pays you, you coach me and I coach him?" Everyone agreed, and I knew I was on to something magic because I felt energized by that decision.

About a week later, I was finishing up my first session coaching Rodolfo and asked him if there was anything he wanted to say to complete. He said, "Yes, have you ever thought about doing this for your job, because you are really good at it?" His response surprised and delighted me. I let him know that I felt I had found what I was born to do a way to make that positive impact and apply what I've been able to do for myself to help others experience joy and success.

So, with his support, I got into a great coaching program, quit my job, moved to Providence to help my sister with the housework, parenting, and doctors, while training as a life coach and starting to build my coaching practice. Within six months, my sister finished her treatment with great triumph and is now cancer free! I moved back to NYC, got certified, founded Prosper with Purpose, quit smoking, got married, coached countless clients in redirecting their lives, and continue to have a blast! Today, I’m making a living doing work that fills my spirit; helping others create a life full of joy, success, prosperity, and purpose! It feels great to wake up every morning and know that I continue to move in my "right" direction.
Who are your clients?
I work with men and women who struggle with feeling stuck or unsatisfied in their personal or professional lives. My clients have a sense that there is more for them in life, if only they knew how to make it happen. Because technology has advanced so quickly, I find that many of us have had to work hard just to keep up, much less thrive. We are in the challenging position of being stuck between downsizing and the tech savvy 20-somethings that are infiltrating the work force. My clients realize that it is up to them to take conscious action towards their goals and create the life they really deserve.
How are you different from other life coaches?
Since coaching is not yet regulated, coaches vary greatly as far as method and style. I am a Results Coaching Systems Certified Life Coach and base much of my approach on recent findings in neuroscience and how the brain actually works. I also work hard to stay on top of the latest developments in quantum physics. I'm not here to tell you what to do or think, but to bring out the best of what you know and help you to apply your knowledge to your daily life. I teach you a systematic approach to accomplishing goals that you can then apply to any area of your life. Along the way, I provide structure, insight, and encouragement to keep you focused on your goals, take powerful action, and celebrate your success.
What type of personality do you work best with and what is expected of me?
The Prosper with Purpose Coaching program was created for people who have a strong desire to break out of past patterns and are willing to learn a new way of doing things in order to get the results they desire in life. Being extremely ambitious myself, I’m known to work best with people who want to go after big goals and make a huge transition in their lives within a single year. I am here to facilitate positive learning. I team up with you to support you any way I can in achieving what you most want in life. You will be expected to take serious, consistent action towards your goals. Entering a coaching engagement is an invitation to do and see things differently, to discover new things about yourself, and to build empowering habits that bring prosperity into your life.
What type of person is the program NOT going to work for?
Please know that I am very selective in whom I work with, choosing to turn away those I feel are not suited for this program and won’t get the results they or I want to achieve. Some people are simply not ready to take responsibility and action in their lives. The types of persons I will not work with (without exception) are the whiner or chronic skeptic, as well as individuals who consistently make excuses for not getting their actions done or challenging every aspect of the program. If you are one of these people, I gently and respectfully ask you not to call and I hope you understand why. My experience is that we won’t work well together, and I don’t want you to waste your time or money. I think it is fair for you to know this up front rather than to be disappointed in our working together.

What results can I expect?
Results vary based on the types of goals you set, however everyone gets to:

  • find clarity on what you really want in life
  • remove long standing blocks
  • increase self confidence and self esteem
  • more authentic relationships
  • more joy and meaning in your daily life
  • have a sense that each day your re moving in your "right" direction

Some specific results I've witnessed happen for my clients are:

  • Strategic approach to creating a life you love
  • launch a business in just a few months
  • land a job getting paid twice as much as ever and loving what you are doing
  • pay off credit debt or student loans
  • stop seeing a therapist
  • come off of anti-depressants
  • fall in love, get engaged
  • turn a hobby into a money making venture
  • create opportunities to travel the world, paid for by someone else
  • make a beautiful, high-functioning home
  • increased income
  • improved health and fitness
How can I achieve the results I want and need; i.e., create prosperity and purpose in my life?
Do all of your assignments. Show up for each coaching call on time and totally focused. Understand that this is not a "quick fix," it’s not magic and it takes time to create lasting change. All of my clients who have diligently applied themselves to bringing purpose to their daily lives have experienced joy, success, and a prosperous life in much less time than they would have on their own.
Does this really work?
Oh yes, and consistently. Click here to read what past clients have to say about the results.
How will we work together and what does the program entail?
If accepted into the program, you will receive total support from me via 1 hour telephone sessions and unlimited, personal email. You will receive tools and resources as well as the support to integrate them into your life. We work together to allow you to make solid plans and strategies that will achieve your life goals. We will also be bringing deep insights about your true nature and desires to the surface. I will focus on keeping you on track, accountable and motivated, as well as balanced so that you can reach your goals faster than you ever would on your own.
Why over the phone?
Conducting our sessions over the phone eliminates any physical or social protocols that can distract and take up time. Working this way allows you to be in your own comfort zone and supports a focused conversation. I’m simply a voice in your ear. In fact, many therapists are finding it useful to meet with their clients over the phone. This also allows me to work with clients all over the world. So, geography is no obstacle to getting the support you desire.
How long is the program?
Programs range from 4-7 months. Based on my experience, it takes at the very least 4 months for all the assessing, strategizing, planning, putting it in action, and adapting as challenges appear in order to create a prosperous life of purpose. Wanting only the best for you, I only offer this program in several month increments.
