“Alignment and purpose are not the goals – they are the consequences of revealing your ground truth and living from it.”
-Rebecca Sappington, PhD
What is Ground Truth Coaching?
Your brain systematically built behaviors and thought patterns to keep you physically, psychologically, and emotionally safe. The irony? These survival skills (in many cases, seemingly “thrive” skills) continue to operate on auto-pilot long after the relationship, situation, or circumstance changes. The same subconscious drivers that helped you succeed are now quietly limiting your sense of abundance and prosperity. Ground Truth Coaching isn't about dismantling what made you successful, but understanding what drives it, what it costs, and where greater choice becomes possible.
How can Ground Truth Coaching help?
Ground Truth Coaching is a systematic, neuroscience-based method developed by Dr. Rebecca Sappington, PhD that helps clients systematically examine the patterns that shape how they perform, make decisions, respond to challenges, and relate to others. Throughout, Dr. Sappington helps clients develop the awareness and flexibility to use their strengths by choice rather than default.
The goal is agency. Keep the superpower. Gain control of the switch. Expand the range.
What will we do?
The Ground Truth Coaching method utilizes neuroscience-based cognitive, behavioral, and integrative tools, such as the Cognitive Clarity Scan and neuroregulation, to systematically facilitate self-inquiry, intentional shifts in behavior, and cognitive reframing. The method follows four stages:
Step 1: Reflect to Reveal
Clarify values, desires, and goals, while identifying patterns that may undermine them
Step 2: Resolve to Rewire
Testing and revising outdated beliefs
Step 3: Redirect to Revitalize
Translate new perspectives into intentional decisions and aligned action
Step 4: Repeat
Revisit the process as circumstances and patterns evolve.
The Good News - over time, Steps 1-3 create a perceptible resonance that represents your Ground Truth and becomes your reference point. Powerful agency and intentional, aligned action becomes the default!
