Leadership & Executive Coaching With Christ at its Core
Christ doesn’t want us to feel stuck when it comes to our personal and professional goals. The Gospel preaches hope, calling us to achieve great things and enact positive change in our lives and the lives of others for His glory.
But to reach that potential, sometimes we need to take a step back and ask whether we’re limiting ourselves from what God plans for us, or if we aren’t aligned with His plans in the first place. Getting that perspective all on our own isn’t easy—that’s where 1st Principle comes in.

Christian Coaching Testimonials
My expectations for the coaching were not disappointed. The goal of this coaching was to draw out from myself the true gifts and desires that already existed within me, and it did just that. Over the coaching period, I learned more fully about myself, such as my likes and dislikes and what drives and motivates me. While these are things I already understood abstractly, Megan and the coaching program helped solidify these truths in my mind. Overall, I would say that the coaching assisted in my understanding of how I function in regard to both life and career, and how to apply this practically in looking for the next step in my career. I would highly recommend this coaching to anyone, but especially to those that are unsure of their next life step

Ryan is a great coach, he really engages to your actual world guiding you where you need to be in order for you to identify your opportunities and things you did not realize that you have to change that somehow are affecting your performance.
Learning to focus on the essentials helped me to deliver better results, to invest more quality time with my stakeholders and to coach my directs in a better way.
After just four months of coaching meetings, I´m happy and proud to say that I got my life back, I´m more productive and efficient at work, I have more time to spend with family and for me.
