I am interdependent with myself
Where Strengths & Interdependence are mutually inclusive
"Your cross to bear, is your gift to share "
Sam McDonald
Knowing your Individual Strengths
Knowing yourself through your intrinsic motivators, your unique Strengths, is one of the greatest ways to invest in your future. To be interdependent within yourself is to recognise what value you intrinsically contribute to the world, through your innate Strengths, and where you need to rely on others to compliment your patterns of non-Strengths.
Once you begin to recognise who you are, as well as whom you are not, self acceptance becomes a possibility and with this, the ability and intention to remain internally balanced, a state that leaves you free to interact with others without negative triggers, leaving you energised and enthused about life and free to be all you can become.
Understanding your Strengths gives you the confidence to choose roles and environments that fit who you uniquely are, congruent with your values, and set goals and journeys to achieve the things you have dreamt of, including aligning and gaining an understanding of your life purpose.
When you add skills and knowledge to your unique Strengths you learn much quicker, are more energised around what you are learning and doing, and feel an immense sense of ‘participating in the right thing’. Doing what is right for your unique set of Strengths is like planting and nurturing the right tree in the right soil and adding water and fertiliser that is right for you.
We begin with your Strengths Assessment and thereafter you get to work with a qualified Strengths Coach. You decide how you would like to utilise the Coaching Sessions and these can be for a multitude of reasons, too many to mention here, but may include career change, addressing limiting beliefs and creating purposeful step-by-step plans to uncover and achieve your goals - all with a focus on both Strengths and Interdependence.
We have Coaches who focus on Career, Relationships, Family, Money, Equality, Personal Development, Confidence, the list is endless, yet they will always bring in the 'Strengths' element to the discussion in order to focus on your uniqueness. Scroll through the list of Coaches below to see if you find a personal fit or contact us, telling us specifically what you think you are looking for and we will match you with a handful of Coaches for you to make your personal choice.
All session begin with you taking your personal online Strengths Assessment. Thereafter working with a qualified Coach to take part in an online (or face-to-face if location permits) confidential two hour Strengths Awareness Session to learn all about yourself and how to understanding Interdependent Rules of Engagement in a very simplistic manner, in order to embrace this way of thinking in your life. You can then choose to enrol in 45 minute Coaching Sessions as often as you feel is appropriate for you.

Dylan Coetzee 2019 South Africa
I read a book called ‘Great Leaders ask Great Questions’ and that is what Sam McDonald does. In fact the right questions that start and spark the thinking process, because any answers we ever want, lay deep within us, and Sam knows how to lead you within yourself for that answer.
Before I met Sam, I had a perception of myself that I was ‘weird’ or too hardworking. Sam, however, could see my Strengths just by speaking to me, and besides highlighting some of them, she pointed out how working in our non-Strengths, we are effectively wasting our talents. Thereafter, I had a desire to pin-point and develop my Strengths.
I worked with Sam to unlock the potential of my Strengths, as well as gain an understanding of who I was, not by looking at my weakness, though we did spend some time here, but by understanding that I will grow exponentially by focusing on my Strengths and asking others to pick up where i’m not strong.
The results after working with Sam was improved Leadership, Communication and a better way of seeing people for who they are based on their Strengths and working on that. I now set more goals, have improved focus, and ‘delegate’ my weaknesses. I also celebrate my successes more.
What I would have loved, if I had the resources, was to have taken one of Sam’s Coaching Packages so I had a plan to focus on and work towards. This would have helped with an implementation plan and goals to work on my situation.
Before meeting Sam everyone made me believe I wanted too much out of life and therefore, I was kind of crazy in their eyes. But unlocking the potential of my Strengths has made me realise this is how I was created by God. I am born to do great things.
