What is Coaching?
“Coaching is unlocking a person’s potential to maximize their own performance. It is helping them to learn rather than teaching them.” John Whitmore (pioneer of coaching)
As your coach, I collaborate with you, listen deeply and ask thoughtful questions that help you organize your thoughts and emotions into clear, logical thinking.
Coaching creates space for you to explore your life with depth and detail, uncovering new perspectives and insights. Over time, small but powerful shifts occur—subtle changes that gradually transform the direction of your path.
Coaching doesn’t give you the answers; it helps you access what’s already within you. It brings clarity, reveals unseen possibilities, and supports you in making stronger, more intentional decisions.
"Dawn helped me sift through layers of complexity and to identify and simplify important tasks, thus clearing the way to successfully tackle goals that at the time felt overwhelming." Shauna Marshall, Lead Singer/Song Writer, Nuclear Blonde
Why Work With a Coach?
- To gain clarity and focus
- To organize the constant flow of thoughts in your mind
- To build confidence in how you operate
- To create meaningful action steps and stay accountable
- To experience new perspectives and more intentional decision making
- To grow in both life and business
Who is Coaching For?
Coaching is for anyone ready to open up, be truly heard, and explore their inner world. It’s for those who want to go deeper into the details of their daily experiences, presence, and long-term goals—and really embrace growth through curiosity and reflection.
What Takeaways Will You Get?
After each session, you’ll walk away feeling energized, clear, and motivated. You’ll leave with concrete next steps—actions you’ve created to move forward immediately.
Beyond that, coaching creates lasting impact through subtle yet profound shifts in thinking. These insights continue to unfold long after the session, influencing your choices and strengthening your ability to lead your life with purpose.
"I walked away feeling energized and clear-headed about the future. Kind of like therapy for an entrepreneurial mindset, Dawn facilitated a healthy exchange that transformed my lingering “what if” thoughts into “bring on what’s next” confidence." Jeff Horn, Founder, Multitudes Agency
How Do I Coach at Marjorie Dawn Coaching?
I am fully present and deeply attentive. I create a calm, supportive space where you can open up freely, knowing you are truly heard. Grounded listening is my superpower—I draw on both training and intuition to ask patient, powerful questions that spark new ways of thinking.
I help you untangle complexity, simplify challenges, and see both deeper truths and the bigger picture. My role isn’t to “fix” you or dominate the conversation—it’s to support you in uncovering your own insights and solutions. Along the way, I track your goals, priorities, and values—bringing them back into focus as you move forward. My approach is nurturing and encouraging, inspiring you to reveal more of who you are.
What is my Coaching Style and Focus?
My coaching weaves together business acumen, leadership expertise, and spiritual grounding—offering clients a balanced, practical, and deeply human path to authentic growth and leadership.
At Marjorie Dawn Coaching, my focus is helping business leaders master the one thing they can control—themselves—so they can elevate their presence, performance, and impact across work and life TO LEAD FROM WITHIN. With 25 years of executive leadership in tech and gaming—including Silicon Valley start-ups where I led $100M+ projects—and two years running my own business, I know what it feels like to be in a high-stakes role, striving to be better, and doing the inner work to grow. I’m passionate about this work because I’ve lived it, and I know how much leaders need support to elevate. What makes it deeply fulfilling for me is the ripple effect: when leaders rise, they not only transform themselves but also shape the well-being and success of the people they lead.
My credentials include Certified Life Coach, ICF-Certified Coach, NLP Practitioner, Group Coach and Licensed Spiritual Practitioner. I studied for three years with the Center for Spiritual Living and maintain a dedicated daily spiritual practice—bringing clarity, grounded wisdom, and real-world insight to the leaders I support.
