Who is Serendipity Jane?

(from Serendipity Jane’s Guide to Life Coaching)

Who is Serendipity Jane?

She’s the opposite of Calamity Jane, I can tell you that! She’s more like the female Indiana Jones on an archaeological search for her own potential and yours. Where through others’ eyes life is perceived as chaos and calamity, Serendipity Jane sees windows of opportunity.

Serendipity Jane is more than a fictional character. She’s more than a sketch that Leonardo Da Vinci forgot to draw. She is the burning desire in every person to live her or his authentic life. Her logic is very peculiar. She draws conclusions about what actions to take from her unique perspective to reach her dream. She develops the attitude for aptitude that causes her to learn and explore, acquire and transform. She’s a Renaissance woman who claims her right to ask tough questions and sees it through ‘til the end, when she finally obtains the results.

She is the voice in each one of us who dares to take charge of her own situation and faces her own limitations, allowing change to alter her current life concepts fearlessly.

Jane takes the reader on an adventurous quest for both her as the guide, and the reader, who takes the stance of an observer and an actor, if he or she chooses to.

Serendipity Jane is the part in you that serves as your own guide, that awakens you to your personal path and who will enthusiastically serve as your travel companion until you’ve reached your final destination.

Essentially, Serendipity Jane discovers life coaching right alongside the reader. She is not a teacher, but an explorer; a kindred spirit of the old merchant adventurers, boldly going into uncharted territory to face the storms and pirates of modern society, including her own fears and clever attempts at self-sabotage.

Her thirst for knowledge is triggered by her vivid imagination, and her persistence in questioning what’s real takes the reader through her personal universe of what may be imagination or reality.

Serendipity Jane is an alter ego who introduces the coaches featured in the book who, each in her or his unique way, give a live account of what they perceive life coaching to be. They offer a glimpse of what it is they do, how someone can benefit from it and allow the reader to get acquainted with them. Along the way, readers may or may not make the decision to get started on the creative process or shaping their authentic lives into what they can be.

My hope is that Serendipity Jane, along with these nine featured life coaches, will bring life coaching closer to you and many other readers, give them an insight into what life coaching can be for each of them individually and how it can help them to reach achievements of unprecedented heights.
