About MARTY

Marty Puckett WilcoxsonI am the Director and Founder of OPENMIND Focused Life Coaching. I am a specialized independent Education Therapist and Life Coach. My practice incorporates the science of learning with personal development. My focus is on the whole individual—that is, the emotional as well as cognitive factors involved in successful learning. I have been specifically trained to help motivate individuals of all ages and walks of life to acquire the knowledge and skill set necessary to create and implement a life that aligns with their core values.

As your Life Coach, I form a trusting human partnership with you. Together we create visions and goals for your life. I will help you design your future looking forward rather than focusing on the past. We start where you are at in this moment of time. We start at NOW.

I will assist you in connecting with yourself and your evolving character and values. In our sessions we will develop a rich portfolio through incorporating the science of learning with your personal experiences, successes and failures that teach life lessons and ignites deeper self-awareness. This is an opportunity to gain empowerment to self-navigate and design the life you want.

Research in the fields of neuroscience, cognitive science, psychology, sociology and human development is helping us to better understand how each of us varies in our life long learning. Each of us has a unique personal spectrum of strengths and weaknesses and can benefit from enrichment education coaching. We now know that life lessons can be strengthened through strategies improving attention, memory, production acquisition, executive function and incorporating them into our personal, educational and professional lives.

Through OPENMIND, I help develop a profile framework specifically tailored to your life’s vision. Using a multidisciplinary coaching approach in unison with OPENMIND’s Focused Modules, you will become more empowered. We will identify areas in your life where you feel stuck. Together we will build your way forward block by block rather than dreaming and imaging what your life could possibly look like. Basically this means, I will help you get out of your head and start taking action in the areas of your life you wish to change. NOW, you can pursue your ambitions without fear.
