Approach and Process
What to expect
-
What executive coaching is
- Executive coaching is a process where a coach helps you get from where you are to where you want to be. Topics can span a variety of opportunities and challenges related to performance, leadership, relationships, stress, and personal growth. Your coach isn't here to solve your problem or tell you what to do, but rather help you better understand what you want, what your options are, and what you can do next.
-
How you can leverage executive coaching
- If you don’t already have a topic you’d like to explore, here are three prompts that can help: 1. What challenge are you facing now for which you don’t have a clear next step? 2. If you could wave a magic wand and fix something in your life, what would it be? 3. Where are you currently feeling stuck? If one of these prompts gets you thinking about a specific answer, then that might be a good place to start.
-
Meeting Location
- As a member of The Malin, it makes sense that you might want to do your coaching sessions at The Malin. It's a beautiful environment and great for meetings. However, if for any reason you can't make it to the office the day of a session, or if Erik can't be in person, we can always leverage Zoom or the phone for the session. Some people even prefer being away from the office for coaching sessions. So we stay flexible on location.
-
Timing and frequency
- These sessions are what we call Laser Coaching Sessions. They tend to last about 15–20 minutes long and they're laser-focused on a single topic. We schedule them in 30-minute blocks so that you have some built-in time to take action immediately following the session. Your Malin membership includes one laser coaching session per month.

“I've gotten more out of three quarterly coaching sessions than I did from three years of monthly sessions with a previous coach.”
Erik Reagan & Built on Purpose
About your coach
Sixteen years ago, Erik Reagan co-founded the brand agency Focus Lab in Savannah, Ga. After spending years building websites for clients, he shifted his focus to operations and culture development as the company grew.
The more self-discovery Erik did, the more it became clear to him that he needed to work his way out of his CEO seat, then out of his COO seat, and eventually out of a leadership role altogether. Doing this allowed him to spend his time doing what gets him out of bed most: one-on-one coaching.
Today, Erik helps entrepreneurs and leaders think differently about what work can be. He is a certified personal and executive coach (CPEC) guiding clients to rediscover their professional purpose and to craft and sustain the life and lifestyle that they long for.
He also cringes when writing in the third person. Alas, here we are.
