Generic life coaching typically works from goal frameworks: define the outcome, break it into steps, track progress weekly. Spirit Guidance Mentoring with Jason starts somewhere different, with the felt sense and the inner witness, and treats self-sabotage as a part of you to bring into safety rather than a problem to push through.
What generic life coaching typically offers
Most life coaching is structured around external goals: career moves, habit changes, business targets. Sessions track measurable progress, and the coach's job is largely accountability and strategy. This works well for people who know what they want and need structure and momentum to get there. It tends to stay practical and rarely touches spiritual language directly, focusing instead on action plans, deadlines and weekly wins.
Traditional coaching certifications, such as those through the International Coaching Federation, emphasize goal-setting frameworks, powerful questioning and client-led agendas. The coach generally stays out of prescribing beliefs or frameworks for meaning, sticking closely to whatever the client already believes and wants.
What Spirit Guidance Mentoring offers instead
Spirit Guidance Mentoring meets weekly for one hour and works from the inside out. "I serve as an external guide to help you remember your internal guidance," Jason says. The core practice is connecting to the felt sense, building the inner witness as "a still point of power," and lovingly bringing the self-sabotaging part of you into safety rather than fighting it. Old patterns get restructured, not just planned around.
The language is explicitly spiritual: soul aspects, higher self, star family, the New Earth. Jason doesn't soften this, but the sessions themselves are grounded, weekly, practical conversations, not abstract ritual. It draws on his 20-plus years of practice and his background in the Three Principles approach to mental health.
Where generic coaching asks "what do you want and how do we get there," Spirit Guidance Mentoring often asks "what's actually happening inside you right now, and what is it trying to tell you." The outer goals tend to follow once the inner pattern shifts, rather than being the starting point of the work itself. This means progress can look different session to session. Some weeks the visible outcome is a breakthrough on a long-standing pattern with no immediate external change to show for it, and that can feel less tangible than checking a box on a traditional action plan, even when the underlying shift is significant.
Who this is for
If you want a coach focused purely on external milestones and strategy, generic life coaching may be the simpler fit. If you're drawn to the idea that the outer changes follow the inner ones, and you're ready to look honestly at the parts of yourself that resist your own progress, Spirit Guidance Mentoring is built for that specific work. Jason is clear it's for people "truly ready to commit to change," open to anyone, but not a light undertaking.
It's also worth considering Galactic Breathing or Sekhem energy healing as a complement, or an alternative starting point, if weekly talk-based mentoring doesn't sound like the right fit but something in this direction still calls to you.
What a typical shift looks like over several weeks
Clients often notice the change less in any single session and more across several weeks of consistent practice. A pattern that used to feel automatic, procrastinating on something important, picking a fight right before a big opportunity, shutting down instead of asking for help, starts to become visible in real time instead of only in hindsight. That visibility is often the actual turning point: once you can see the pattern as it happens, you have a choice you didn't have before. Jason's role through this stretch is less about giving direction and more about holding steady presence while you build that muscle yourself, week over week.
When generic coaching is actually the better fit
It's worth saying plainly that Spirit Guidance Mentoring isn't the right fit for everyone, and that's fine. If you have a clear, concrete business or career goal and you mainly need someone to hold you accountable to deadlines and next steps, a traditionally trained business or executive coach is likely to serve you better and faster. That kind of coaching is built for exactly that job: turning ambition into a plan and a plan into consistent weekly action. Spirit Guidance Mentoring can feel slower and less linear by comparison, because it's working with the internal patterns underneath your goals rather than the goals themselves first. If you try mentoring and find yourself wanting more direct strategy and less inner work, that's useful information, not a failure of the process. It just means the fit runs the other direction for this particular season of your life, and that can change later.
Frequently asked questions
Is Spirit Guidance Mentoring religious?
No. It draws on spiritual concepts like higher self and star family, but it isn't tied to a specific religion and is open to people from any background.
How is the weekly structure different from a typical coaching program?
The format, weekly one hour sessions, is similar. The difference is the lens: working through felt sense and inner patterns rather than external goal tracking alone.
What does "bringing the self-sabotaging part into safety" actually mean in practice?
Rather than forcing through resistance, Jason works with you to understand why a part of you resists change and helps that part feel safe enough to cooperate, instead of continuing to block progress from the background.
How much does it cost, and can I try it before committing to weekly sessions?
Pricing for weekly mentoring is set after your free 20 minute intro call, based on your situation. That intro call itself is free and is designed exactly to let you try the format before committing to anything ongoing.
Can I switch from generic life coaching to Spirit Guidance Mentoring later?
Yes. Some people start with a more traditional coach for a specific goal, then move toward mentoring once they notice the same internal pattern showing up across several different goals. There's no requirement to pick one permanently, and switching between the two as your needs change is common.
