With true sincerity of heart and extreme gratitude, I have been blessed to “marry up” and spend nearly 25 years of marriage with an amazing wife, true friend, and yes…a coach! 🙂
20 years ago, I remember bantering names for Christy’s business, and while I can’t remember all the options we were considering, I still remember crystallizing “Synergy Strategies” with a tagline something like, “Helping you find clarity, focus, and a plan.”
After 20 years, this is still what Christy does and does very well. I certainly have had my struggles and all too many challenges of having clarity, focus, and plan. I know there were moments…seasons…of frustration as Christy desired (as she does for all her clients) that I was at my best and wanted me to implement the very things she was implementing and sharing with her clients.
I have not always been the best student. Perhaps that is the challenge of having a wife who is a coach. She will not settle for mediocrity, half-effort, or aimless wandering through life. Perhaps at times, I would have been content with that, but the greatest blessing of having a wife who is a coach…she didn’t allow that to happen!
Honestly, I am still not the best model for the great value she has and continues to bring to our marriage. I am a slow student…but when the student is ready, the teacher arrives.
This truth is one that I believe is real for all her clients. If you are ready to be coached, Christy will pour her all into you. She believes in you. She wants you to be your best. She wants you to succeed. You just must be ready.
