Goal Setting

Dream Big. Create Steps. Climb With Care.

Dreams are typically considered “unobtainable.” This is why we use the moniker A Dream.

People dream to be a star. Dream of owning a home and having a family. Dream of being successful. All of these can be obtainable, most things in this world are, as we see people do it all the time.

These are traditionally accomplished by setting goals, and achieving those goals one or a few at a time.

Much of the world pictures this as “climbing the ladder.” Yet, we at The Metal Lotus want to help you build a pyramid.

What does that look like or even mean?

Let’s break down this metaphor…

Ladders are quick, accessible, and a great way to reach new heights. Yet, they are not sturdy. Easy to fall, and if we miss a rung, we can find ourselves plunging back to the ground faster than we ascended.

A pyramid takes time to create but is extremely sturdy. Most of the pyramids that we all know and love were constructed millennia past and have lasted in their grand standing form all this time. You can still ascend to great heights, but toppling a pyramid is impractical if not impossible. There are no rungs to break, and each new platform is sturdy, strong, and built upon the unmovable foundation of the step preceding it.

Our dreams rest in the clouds, and our goals are the steps we mark and create to reach the sky. Accomplishing those goals are building one platform after another, stacking our achievements up to eventually grasp that aspiration we hold so dear.

This is our philosophy. And we are here to assist in the acquisition of your lofty aims!

First, we ask the proper questions, posed to tease out the best focus.

Through discussions, we construct a plan of creating your platform.

As we move forward, we continue to give you tools, information, and ideas that will assist you in building toward your personal achievements!

Relationship Coaching

Unification. Finding a center. Reaffirming Love.

Relationships of all kinds are difficult. No two people or group of people can or will always get along 24/7. Communication can break down. Needs or desires may go unmet. The rigors of adulting can become obstacles for affirming connection. Along with a myriad of other issues, love can wain; being replaced by resentment, anger, or spite.

We all cling to hope! Hoping that things will return to the ‘honeymoon phase,” or that our significant other will follow through with the respectful behaviors we long for.

That hope has led you here, looking for action, because hope is never enough.

With proper and agreeable goal setting, honest conversation, and appropriate tools, we at The Metal Lotus will work to help you and your partner flourish into a new paradigm of love and acceptance.

Your own relationship will reflect a “metal lotus.” A flower, grown from a dark and dirty pond, that blossoms with beauty, but stronger than ever before!

We draw from a multitude of practices, theories, philosophies, and schools of thought to assist in teaching our clients to build a better foundation in their relationships. Regaining understanding, trust, and communication are paramount! This is what we work to accomplish.

Stress Management

Recognition. Mindfulness. Alleviation.

In our western culture, some would argue, “With all the amenities we have at our disposal, what could one be so stressed out about?”

We at The Metal Lotus understand that reality is subjective. The hardest thing that has ever happened to you, is The Hardest Thing That’s Happened To YOU.

We also understand that stress comes in many forms. It can be the rigors of a work schedule, family issues, PTSD, the list is exhaustive. Know that we are here to help.
