Are you a leader, consultant, coach, or healer ready to ignite massive change in your clients…fast?

Introducing The Coaching SWITCH®: Your shortcut to becoming a masterful coach.

become a coach

This isn’t just another coaching course. The Coaching SWITCH® is a transformative program designed by coaching expert Lorraine Hamilton, with over 18 years of experience and 10,000+ coaching hours under her belt.

Imagine:

• Witnessing “aha!” moments in your clients as they discover their own solutions.
• Freeing yourself from endless problem-solving and guiding clients towards self-discovery.
Knowing you’re not just giving advice, but empowering transformation.

The Coaching SWITCH® gives you the tools and techniques to do exactly that.

Hi I’m Lorraine Hamilton

A good friend of mine once said to me: “if we sliced you down the middle, you would have coaching running through you”.

Now, aside from the slightly gory picture that statement conjures up, she was completely right. Coaching has been my passion for almost two decades. From learning, practising and then teaching and mentoring other coaches it still lights my soul to help others become the person that they never knew they could be.

I proudly co-teach the most cutting edge Life Coach Certification Program at Coaching Evolved, and have trained some of the most successful coaches operating today.

I have been teaching ICF accredited programs for 7 years and have myself over 10,000 hours of coach experience since I began in 2006.
As the coaching industry has exploded over the past decade, the need for high quality training has never been higher.

This work is my passion and I am thrilled to be spending this time with you. I promise it will be worth your time.

Here’s what sets us apart:

The SWITCH Coaching System®

A proven framework for creating rapid shifts in your clients’ thinking and perspective.

Weekly Live Training & Coaching Demos

Here’s a sneak peek at what you’ll learn in each module:

Each session runs for 2 hours and are scheduled based on the timezones of enrolled students. Each session covers teaching, coaching demonstrations and practice.

  • How coaching has evolved over recent years
  • All about the SWITCH Coaching System®

Practice Session

In this week’s practice time, we will break into smaller groups to connect more deeply with each other. You do not need to prepare anything for this practice session

Module 2: Holding Powerful Space

Now that we have laid the foundation of how we will be working together and have gotten over any potential nerves or jitters, we can begin to learn the skills, tools and processes that make up the SWITCH Coaching System®.

In this week’s class you will learn:

  • How to set aside all that you thought you knew about the person in front of you
  • How to acknowledge and summarize, without relating or shifting the focus back to you as the coach
  • How to celebrate your client’s uniqueness and use this as the foundation for your coaching relationship

Practice Session

In this week’s practice time, you will practice the skills that you have learned in our teaching segment.  You will meet your ‘client’ with a new reverence and experience being met that way.  

Module 3: Listening With Your Whole Body

Did you know that much of the time I am not listening to what my client is saying?  If that surprises you then you will love this week’s class.  We are exploring the 3 levels of listening, and their impact on your coaching ability and results.

In this week’s class you will learn:

  • How to listen from multiple ‘levels’ to hear what your client is not saying
  • How to tune into your intuition
  • How to notice your ‘level one thinking’ and shift quickly back into coach mode

Practice Session

In this week’s practice time, you will practice the skills that you have learned in our teaching segment.  You will be practicing listening to your client from listening levels 1, 2 and 3, as well as experiencing being heard from each level.  

Module 4: Getting To The Heart Of It

After listening to thousands of hours of coaching sessions, I can say confidently that if a coaching conversation is going to go badly, it is more than likely due to not setting an objective correctly.  The importance of this step cannot be overstated.

In this week’s class you will learn:

  • How to get to the heart of the issue quickly and efficiently
  • How to use silence in your coaching conversations to gain clarity
  • When to intrude on your coachee’s narrative

Practice Session

In this week’s practice time, you will practice the skills that you have learned in our teaching segment.  You will be practicing setting super clear objectives for your coaching session.  We will debrief as a group.

Module 5: Asking The Right Questions

Coaching is sometimes described as “asking the right questions”, and in this class we will be diving deeply into the world of questions.  We’ll examine what makes a powerful question, why questions are the main tool of masterful coaches as well as much, much more.  There are some nuances in this training that you will likely never have been shown in other communication trainings.  Don’t miss it!

In this week’s class you will learn

  • How to craft powerful questions that transform
  • How to identify the pitfalls that weaken questions
  • How to set yourself apart from 90%+ of all other coaches

Practice Session

In this week’s practice time, you will practice the skills that you have learned in our teaching segment.  You will be building on last week’s objective setting practice using powerful questions. We will debrief as a group.

Module 6: Tools To Transform

You have completed the foundational skills training of The Coaching SWITCH and now we can begin to fan the flames to create massive transformation in your coachee, simply and quickly.  In the first of two classes where will pack your toolkit full of simple and powerful ways to work with your client so that they can see their challenges from a far more empowered perspective.

You will be amazed at how fast you can create true transformation.

In this week’s class you will learn:

  • How to creatively transform your client’s circumstances
  • How to develop powerful new perspectives using simple tools
  • How to gift your clients true inner empowerment

Practice Session

Module 7: Going Beyond Mindset

This week we continue to fill your “Transformational Toolkit” with more advanced techniques.  

In this week’s class you will learn:

  • How to use somatic practices to shift energy
  • How to use inner conflict to create rapid transformation

Practice Session

In this week’s practice time, you will continue to practice all you have learned so far, weaving together a clear objective with powerful questions and transformational tools.

Module 8: Powerful Parts Work

Regardless of the issue or challenge that your coachee presents with, the goal is always wholeness.  Much of what makes SWITCH Coaches so powerful is their ability to identify and integrate these conflicted parts.

In this class you will learn cutting edge techniques to work with the head, heart and gut to align and integrate your client towards wholeness.

A student favourite and not to be missed.

In this week’s class you will learn:

  • Cutting edge techniques to work with the head, heart and gut
  • How to elicit and facilitate powerful conversations with a coachee’s parts
  • How to blend multiple transformation tools in your sessions

Module 9: Clarifying & Harmonising

Over the course of the past 8 weeks you have learned the skills, processes and tools of the SWITCH Coaching System® and have begun to practice using it to support you to support others.

Now that you have transformed the way that your coachee sees the issue that they brought to the coaching conversation, it is time to crystallize their transformation by clarifying what is different and amplifying the new sense of resourcefulness your coachee has. By the end of this session you will have completed the SWITCH Coaching System® elements.

In this week’s class you will learn:

  • How to help your client view their coaching topic from their transformed perspective
  • How to amplify this new perspective for long lasting change
  • How to harmonize and integrate your coachee’s learnings into a new, more resourceful and empowered self

Module 10 - 12: Coaching Clinics

Module 10: Coaching Clinic 1

We have reached the first of our 3 coaching clinics and I would argue that even though there is no new teaching in these sessions, they are the ones where you will learn the most and take the greatest leaps in your coaching ability.

In these sessions you can expect more Coaching Demos and debriefs, opportunities to ask questions and troubleshoot your coaching conversations, and receive personalised feedback on your live coaching demos.

Now is the time to truly lean into the time we have left to expand and explode your coaching ability. It is definitely NOT the time to take your foot off the gas pedal.

Module 11: Coaching Clinic 2

We have reached the second of our 3 coaching clinics and I would argue that even though there is no new teaching in these sessions, they are the ones where you will learn the most and take the greatest leaps in your coaching ability.

In these sessions you can expect more Coaching Demos and debriefs, opportunities to ask questions and troubleshoot your coaching conversations, and receive personalised feedback on your live coaching demos.

Now is the time to truly lean into the time we have left to expand and explode your coaching ability. It is definitely NOT the time to take your foot off the gas pedal.

Module 12: Coaching Clinic 3 & Celebration

This week represents the culmination of 12 weeks of learning, commitment and growth. You have been generous, vulnerable and supportive, as well as being supported.

This Coaching Clinic is a little different as we will be celebrating your journey to this point as well as addressing what happens next.

There will still be time for you to bring your coaching questions and any challenges that you would like my advice and guidance on though.

“To say Lorraine has been instrumental in my life is an understatement.

I ended up with a complete career change becoming a full time life coach, Lorraine has taught, coached, mentored and developed me in so many ways. I will be forever grateful for her wisdom and love.”

Sonia McIndoe

“The Coaching Switch programme is jam packed with high value content. As an experienced coach I was looking to hone my skills and keep improving. Lorraine’s depth of knowledge and well organised and thoughtful approach to teaching gave me every opportunity and has left me with tools that I can flexibly use within my own practice. I highly recommend this course whether you’re starting out and need a set structure to have confidence, or you’re simply looking to build on your current skill set. Simply fabulous.”

Jo Workman

“I’ve seen many people studying coaching for a year sometimes more and still not feel qualified or have the knowledge and skills to to begin with their own clients. Lorraine encourages and empowers her students while giving honest feedback about your capabilities and I found that learning under her I obtained skills that I could easily understand and apply quickly.”
