Personal Coaching

“Having David as my coach has been life changing!  From the very beginning he has been incredibly helpful in working with me to identify desires and goals that I want to achieve and then patiently leading me through the steps to achieve them.  My time with David has allowed me to clarify and articulate my core passion, my spiritual gifts, my life purpose, my life message, and my core values.  This has given me a great framework for making decisions in my life and achieving my goals!  The time I spend with David has been some of the most powerful time I’ve spent in my life knowing who I am, the man God truly created me to be.

“I have received coaching from David Smith for almost half a year and have truly benefited from the relationship. As an aspiring life coach myself, I have been challenged, stretched and encouraged to grow in areas of my life I was not even aware needed growth.  As I look back on the time spent I feel incredibly blessed for the investment David has placed into my life as I learned powerful leadership tools and qualities in the midst of our coaching sessions.”

Daniel McHarness
Coach in training

“As a former professional athlete, I truly understand the value of a coach.  In sports and life, a coach is instrumental in our success.  In life we all need people that extract out of us what God put in us!  We all need people to ask the tough and necessary questions that prepare and push us to attain the greatness that lies within.  I have personally benefited from the coaching of David Smith. He is gifted in helping you to unleash the greatness that God has placed within.”

Coach Training

“I have attended several of David’s life coaching workshops. Through his teaching of how to listen and ask powerful questions, demonstration and peer coaching, I have realized the value of coaching. Through this training I began to discover what motivated my heart. This enabled me to see the necessary actions to be taken to empower me and set me free. I was also able to coach others in this way in the workshops and with subsequent coaching opportunities.

David is an expert at facilitating the coaching process and I grew in understanding and confidence under his leadership. Subsequently, as I saw his experience and the Father heart of God he carries, I decided to be coached by him personally. He helped me identify and work through mindsets that needed renewing to bring a transformation of my heart as well as helping me to identify a way forward in some decisions I needed to make in my life. It has been an honor to learn from him and to know his influence in my life.”
