FAQ


Why all the different programs?

Because we love variety! And we want to make it really easy for people to say "YES!" to these programs. The Dare to Engage Program is always operating as the foundational model for all of our programs, the main difference is that some programs will be much more comprehensive and intensive than others.

To help people create the results they want, we've created packages for coaching and master minds that have different levels of involvement. Ready to Engage?


Will I be working with Anese personally?

At this point, in all of the programs you do work with Anese; the program that you select will determine how intensely you work with her and how much. For example, in the Hero's Success Circle, there is very light coaching combined with monthly topic calls, while in the Hero's Journey program, there are retreats, monthly private coaching, monthly Master Mind groups and more. It just depends on what you would like to invest in time, money and energy.


Is there any way to work with you without being in a program?

Yes. You can sign up for one or all of the "Booster" Sessions. These are sessions that are either focused around a specific structure and model (ie. DTE BreakThrough Session, Full Body Leadership, 5Dynamics Energy Preference Assessment) or as an "as needed" Private Coaching Booster session. These are a great way to engage in a quick and effective manner!


What kind of results do people experience?

Too many to list! Some of the most common results are having an increase in energy, losing weight, getting healthy, creating stronger relationships with co-workers and loved ones, being able to create a desired impact, more effective meetings, making more money, getting a promotion, growing a business and increasing revenue and client base, finding and claiming a bigger game to play, and creating more time for family and self and things that usually get "back burnered." For more common benefits and results, go to Results. To learn more about client experiences of working with Anese, go to Testimonials.


How do I get started with Anese?

Contact Toni Henry, Executive Assistant, and she will get you started with an Entry Point Questionnaire (just a short form with a couple of questions to help prepare for your "get to know you" consult) and schedule you for a 15 minute chat to talk with Anese.

Ready to get going now? Complete an Entry Point Questionnaire online; once you submit it, it will go directly to Anese (only Anese will see it) and you will be contacted by Anese or Toni to schedule a consult.


When is the next group program starting?

Go to the Events section for upcoming dates.


How do I bring Dare to Engage Programs into my organization?

Contact Toni Henry, Executive Assistant, and she will get you started with an Entry Point Questionnaire Corporate Consult form and schedule you for an initial conversation to talk with Anese.


Is Anese available for speaking engagements?

Absolutely! She loves talking to groups. You can check out our Media page and contact us for more information.


Is coaching therapy?

No. Coaching is focused on action, learning, growth, achievement, results, clarification and moving forward. Therapy focuses more on resolving issues, growth and healing. Sometimes coaching will touch on sensitive topics and it can feel "therapeutic" in processing them, but it is not therapy. I have had clients who have worked for me on life and leadership coaching and at the same time had a therapist for a particular area of their life that needed therapy. Therapy and Coaching can compliment each other quite well, but it is important to know that coaching is not therapy.


Can coaching "change" or "fix" people?

Coaching is not about "fixing" people, at all...it is about helping them identify their strengths and opportunities and grow into stronger people and leaders in their life. Will it "change" them? Only as they choose to create change for themselves.


How much are the programs?

It depends on the level of involvement and interaction with Anese. Private coaching provides a wide variety of options and the investment will be based on the intensity and length of the program. Group programs, like the 7 Week Dare start at $597 with early registration. That's the baseline group program. Starting in January, there will be a "Hero's Circle" which is a community of daretoengagers and involves group calls and on-line learning with light "10 minute laser coaching" days (once a month).


Where can I learn more about programs?

For laser coaching days, am I guaranteed a coaching spot?

No. You will call in during the designated times ie. 8-12 CST on Friday and call in on the 10 minute mark - ie. 8:10, 8:20, etc. If you get voice mail, it means someone is on that time, so call back at the next mark. Usually all people get in - it may take a couple of calls but so far so good!


Can I fill out the EPQ for my spouse or employee?

No. It's important that the person who will be participating in the program actually fill the entry point questionnaire out him/herself. This gives them an opportunity to give deeper thought to what they want to achieve through coaching or these programs. This is the beginning of the process in creating the results they want. Our clients are busy folks AND they get a lot of value out of "stopping" and taking the time to reflect on what's happening for them and what they want to create. By doing this up front, it will set the participant up for greater success in the long run. It also ensures that they're ready to make the time and energetic (and financial) investment to achieve their goals.


Does everyone have to fill out an EPQ?

No. Only if you are interested in private work with Anese or are not sure what program you should go into. If you are signing up for the Hero's Circle (January) or the 7 Week Dare (November) you can just register either online or with Karen Bonfiglio.


How often will I work with Anese if I'm doing private coaching?

That is up to you and Anese to determine based on your goals and time and financial investment choices. Some work with Anese twice a month, while others choose to work with her 3 times a month. Depending on what you're looking for, you can also do an intensive kickoff retreat which is really powerful.


Is all work done in person?

No. A lot if not all, is often done on the phone. If you want to have a private retreat, you will most likely come to Illinois (just outside Chicago) for that. When possible, if local, Anese will do the beginning work in person, but most often follow up is via phone. The workshops and retreats are done in person. Everything else in the program packages is by phone. This can all be designed into your program, ask for what you want.


When I sign up for 7 Week Dare, what will happen?

  • You will sign up and give your credit card information.
  • On October 24th you will receive your pre-work and access to the on-line forum so that you can get ready for the November 1st start!
  • November 1st we kick off! Classes will be on Thursdays 10-11:15 a.m. CST on 11/1, 11/8, 11/15 and 11/29th and then 12/6 and 12/13. If you miss one, no worries, they will be recorded and you can listen to them afterwards!
  • Group Master Mind Coaching Sessions will take place on Tuesdays, 10-11 a.m. CST on 11/6 (Bonus Call!), 11/13, 11/27 and 12/11 CST. These calls will NOT be recorded for confidentiality purposes.

What is the online forum?

It is the Dare To Engage community where you can access the main calendar, a discussion forum to pose questions, converse and get feedback on things you're working on, share successes, etc. (participation on that is totally optional and available to you and is really cool).You'll also have access to the DTE Toolkit, any class recordings and transcripts, as well as other goodies that will be added along the way.


When I'm done with the 7 Week Dare, what's next?

You will be invited to be a part of the Hero's Circle for 1 month for FREE for the first month, after which time you will go to the regular monthly fee of $197 per month. You can also choose to join the Hero's Elite Coaching Program which is an intensive 6 month program limited to 12 people. There will be lots of coaching with Anese and group work and even a retreat. This program is by application or invitation only.


I love my monthly newsletter. When will it come out?

We do our best to get them out during the first week of the month! Every once in a while, you'll get an extra one during the month!


What is Anese's background?

She is a Certified Professional Co-active Coach, a Certified Wellness Coach and a Certified Health & Fitness instructor. She has her BS in Kinesiology (study of the body), she is a member of the Arbinger Helping Professionals Network and is licensed to use the Arbinger Materials in her 1:1 work with clients. She has had extensive training in leadership development, health and productivity, coaching, consulting, systems work (relational), and much more. She continues to grow her repertoire every year and is highly committed to staying on the cutting edge. She is on the faculty for the ISAE Certified Executive Leadership Series, and much more. You can see her bio on the website, under Meet Anese.


Does Anese do speaking engagements?

Yes, she loves to speak to groups. You can contact us and set up a time to speak with her, and to save a step go to the "Contact Us" page and fill out the form on that page with what you are looking for.


When is the next event?

Check the Events page and the Media page on the DTE site for upcoming appearances and events.

Check the Ready to Engage page for when next program starts.


Does Anese write?

Yes, she has written articles for a couple of different publications and is happy to spread the word in any way possible.


Will Anese work with my organization?

She might. Depending on what you are looking for she will usually design something to fit you. The best example of this is retreats and coaching programs for teams who want to raise the bar on their leadership individually and as a team. She will take your desired outcomes and then blend them with the DTE Program and Principles, integrate experiential learning (and maybe even ropes courses) and provide the space for you and your team to get away, and voila, you have a powerful experience.

Another way she works with organizations is to take a team and provide private coaching for each member combined with group coaching. It is essential that the participant WANTS to have the coaching and DO the work. Anese will ask each member to fill out an "application/EPQ" of sorts, and may even interview them before embarking on a coaching program.

If you are interested in speaking with Anese about customizing an "Elite Program" (limit 12) for your group or another DTE Program, please complete the Organizational Entry Point Questionnaire online and contact her directly.


Does Anese Facilitate meetings?

She can. She usually takes your intended outcomes and then uses them as a guide to help you create those outcomes. The key thing is that she will facilitate a "heart-to-heart" with your group to get things on the table, speak directly and honestly and move towards the results you want as a team. As you know her key stand is "dare to engage" so she brings that energy to your meeting. Daring you to speak openly and productively while providing the space and safety to do so.


What's the best way for me to get results?

Show up, do the work, be hungry to grow and "lean in!" Anese will meet you wherever you are at in your journey as long as you show up and make the investment in yourself and in the coaching.


I'd like to talk with Anese directly, how do I do that?

Please talk with Toni and get on her schedule so you can have a chat. You'll be asked to fill out an EPQ ahead of time so that you and Anese will be more prepared and use your time efficiently. You should also check out the website to get a feel for Anese, what she stands for for her clients and how she works. That will probably answer a lot of initial questions. Consults are typically 15-20 minutes long. If you are a good fit and you decide to move forward, she'll get you started as soon as possible!


What are the pictures of the trees in the last ad?

Those are ropes courses! They are fantastic for experiential learning and making major shifts. Those retreats are usually held for teams and corp clients AND during Anese's Elite Program (starts in January - retreat will be in March or April). Depending on demand, she may hold an additional retreat or two during the year for up to 12 people. If you are interested, let Anese know.


What other things does Anese do if I don't want to wait for the next program and I don't want to start coaching right now?

You can do one of the "booster" activities. These include:

Dare To Engage Breakthrough Session: 1-2 hours to dive in and address a topic or two on where you'd like to create a shift in your life and where you need to engage. You will walk away with the right "dare" for you to move forward (these are also great for 'graduated' clients who want "tune ups" - many do it quarterly to stay engaged and keep the daring edge in their forward movement). These sessions are $350-$650 and require light pre-work. You can also inquire about doing a private DTE Retreat for yourself which is AWESOME!!!

There is also the 5Dynamics Assessment which is fantastic for giving you a quick assessment (2 minutes on-line) of how you are physiologically wired to expend your energy, collaborate, learn and get things done. This is great for figuring out what is the best use of your energy and if you're spending time effectively and then to figure out how to engage your team and others more powerfully. The assessment alone is $250 and you are automatically given your results when you take the test. You then are invited to a 5Dynamics Debrief Session (that happens once a month for all participants usually during the 4th week of the month.) If you want personal time with Anese to coach and debrief on your results, it is $450.00 for one hour plus the assessment.

Finally, there is the "Full Body Leadership" Session which can take 1 hour to a day depending on what you are looking to accomplish. These sessions are focused around your physical and mental presence and how you use your body, posture and presence to support you vs. hinder you in creating impact and leadership. Sessions start at $350 and up and require light pre-work (if you do a full day DTE retreat, this is incorporated into that.) Anese has also just started doing Full Body TuneUps which take 15 minutes and are intended to get you fully grounded in your body and ready for your next meeting or whatever you are moving into. These can be bought in package of 4 and cost $350 for a 4-pack.
