Helping leaders support bereaved employees
Coaching for small steps or big changes
Maybe you feel like you should be able to figure this out on your own. The truth is, we all need a little help at times. Help for untangling old habits that hold us back and help for charting new courses. Someone who will hear us, challenge us, and celebrate with us when we do small things consistently or big things courageously.
As a coach, that’s what I do.
Let’s talk about what you need.
“Hiring Peggy Haymes for professional coaching of our management team was the best decision I've made all year. After each session with Peggy, my staff returned to the office energized and ready to tackle obstacles. They quickly put into practice what they had discussed and I overheard them talking among themselves about ways they had all grown. Peggy's help has been invaluable.
What has been good for each individual has been exponentially better for the team as a whole. I cannot recommend her enough and will definitely build coaching into our budget every year so we can continue to grow with her as our intelligent and compassionate guide.”
Jamie Rogers Southern, Executive Director, Bookmarks
“(Peggy) is brilliant at asking the exact question you need to answer in order to get unstuck. "
Kate Storhoff, former General Manager, Bookmarks
"With Peggy's help, I am now more deeply connected to the person I want to be and I feel more capable of living the way I want to live. Her spot-on intuition has made me feel seen."
Ashley M., Massachusetts
“Peggy became my coach at a time when I was losing myself in my ministry. She helped me reclaim my voice and find healing."
Rev. Shayna Wible
Speaking, Workshops, Seminars and Retreats
With over thirty years of experience, I’ve worked with diverse groups from California to Maine and throughout the Southeastern United States.
Bringing outstanding communication skills along with extensive experience with group process, I’m glad to talk with you about what your organization needs.
I’ve led retreats that have included topics such as self esteem, communication, using our gifts, and spiritual growth. I’m also trained in the change process and communication styles of Virginia Satir.
With particular training and experience in grief, I offer grief-focused workshops for businesses, churches, and other organizations.
I’m currently an instructor with Furman University’s Osher Lifelong Learning Institute leading a class on grief.
“What an incredible gift I was given this weekend!!! Thank you for the outstanding Grief Seminar! I have been blessed to be able to attend several “Grief Seminars,” but none touched me like this past weekend’s.
Maybe it was because I NEEDED to be there. I believe it was our presenter!!!
I am so thankful I was there to soak-up the experiences and wisdom of Peggy Haymes. What a joy!!!
Yesterday was such a beautiful experience that I did not want it to end. Thank you, thank you, thank you!”
