The coaching relationship is an alliance, a unique partnership designed to empower clients to uncover their own answers to whatever questions or challenges they may be facing. The coach’s role is to ask the right questions, employ the right tools and techniques and guide clients to recognize who they are and what they need. Life coaching helps clients make decisions that create a more successful, satisfying and balanced life.
Just Imagine:
the benefits of engaging in a process of self-exploration, discovery, and personal growth.
being motivated to set and follow through with health and lifestyle goals.
striking a balance between home and work responsibilities.
managing your time and stress more effectively.
having a clear direction and plan for your future.
living with more confidence, clarity, meaning, and purpose.
To help you thrive, I will:
- Challenge, support and empower you to realize your personal and professional potential.
- Facilitate a self-exploration process uniquely designed to help you create a life and career you love.
- Share tools and techniques designed to help you overcome your persistent fears, limiting beliefs, and other obstacles that have previously kept you from moving forward.
- Assist you to move smoothly and effectively through periods of transition.
- Provide guidance to help you make life-enhancing changes.
About Robyn
Dr. Robyn R. Agnew C.L.C began her career as a Visiting Assistant Professor of Health Education at the Citadel in 1994. In 1996, she returned to her alma mater, Erskine College, serving as Dean of Students for the next 13 years. She was then named Vice President for Student Services, the first female to serve in a Vice Presidential role in Erskine’s 177 year history. In this position, she was selected to participate in the Oxford Roundtable in Oxford, England and received the Clarice W. Johnson Outstanding Professional Award from the South Carolina College Personnel Association. She was also instrumental in securing a grant from the Lilly Endowment to begin a vocational reflection program for students. In 2014, she left Erskine to pursue coaching certification through Life Purpose Institute in San Diego, California, and opened her own business in the fall of 2015. She works with individual clients, conducts group workshops and facilitates retreats. Robyn and her husband, Paul, live in Greenwood, South Carolina with their eight year old Boykin Spaniel, Jeb. She enjoys reading, running, hiking, kayaking, yoga and meditation.
Living Authentically Workshop
The journey toward living authentically requires that our words and actions match our beliefs and values. It requires that we make decisions from a position of strength, self-knowledge and self-awareness, and that we embrace and present the most genuine and vulnerable version of ourselves. Through a variety of exercises and assessments, participants in this interactive workshop will receive effective tools for maximizing their own path to authentic living.
“Thought-provoking”, “Eye-opening”, “Much-needed guided self-reflection” – Comments from past workshop participants
Working with Robyn helped me to define intention and purpose for the next chapter in my life and fueled my desire to embrace the choice of living consciously. She offered support through active listening, intuitive questioning and consistent encouragement. She is present and responsive, knowing when to push and when to support. Robyn is all about empowerment…not trying to influence or give answers, but asking the right questions and providing a healthy environment conducive to clearing baggage and exploring paths to new possibilities. I highly recommend Robyn at iThrive Life and Career Coaching to anyone looking for balance and direction on their journey towards personal freedom and growth.

Life coaching was the perfect choice to help my daughter navigate college, a career choice and her future. I knew she was in good hands, because of the years Robyn spent working with students in higher education, combined with her life coaching skills. After just the initial consultation, my daughter was filled with excitement and enthusiasm! Choosing a career path can seem like a daunting task, especially to someone fresh out of high school. Robyn’s focus is solely on the client – learning about them and then helping them learn what’s best for them. My daughter has walked away with such resolve and confidence in her path forward! So grateful to Robyn and her services.

The senior year of high school can be daunting, with so many decisions to be made. Two years ago, my oldest son was in just that time of his life. Completing college applications and deciding on a major became an overwhelming task. Robyn was a tremendous help during this time. She gave him the tools he needed to evaluate what is important to him, making the decision of which college to attend clear. She helped him draft his resume and prepared him well for college interviews. He not only enjoyed his sessions with Robyn, but he also came away with skills to help him make decisions.
Once my youngest son began his senior year in high school, we again enlisted Robyn's help. She was able to help him prepare his resume and make decisions about college and career path selection. She even put him in touch with a professional in a career he is interested in. In addition to helping with college and career choices, Robyn equipped him with skills to set and meet goals, as he tends to be a procrastinator! Robyn listens well; she cares about her clients; she goes above and beyond to help her clients succeed. We couldn't have been more pleased with her services.

I started working with Robyn after beginning to feel stagnant and frustrated in my career. I felt that the path I was on was not allowing me to be my authentic self and that a change was needed. In the time we worked together, I learned more about myself than at any other time in my life. The exercises and thoughtful questions required me to think introspectively and tapped into parts of my personality and makeup that I had missed out on before. As we wrapped up our sessions, I did not feel like the same person I had when we first started. I became more self-aware and more confident in pursuing a new career. I can't thank Robyn enough for all of her help!

Before beginning my work with Robyn, I was experiencing pretty significant burnout and self-doubt. I couldn’t think of any goals to inspire me, and for a goal-oriented person like myself, that was disconcerting and disorienting. Professionally, work that previously had given me joy and satisfaction left me exhausted. Spiritually, there was a void. Thank goodness for family and friends. Through Robyn’s perceptive guidance and encouragement and positively challenging exercises, I realized my life was out of balance. I had lost sight of my priorities. By priorities I do not mean my “to do” list, but a short list of my non-negotiables for living a more fulfilled life. Robyn’s coaching helped me identify what mattered to me most. The challenging mental work allowed me to pinpoint strengths and acknowledge weaknesses, and guided me to a realization that I was spending a lot of time doing things I did not particularly enjoy. Prayerful meditation helped me develop a sense of calm, even in the midst of uncertainty. I was helped in discovering skills and tools I already had to make positive changes, some easy, others more difficult and requiring more planning and effort on my part. I feel more hopeful and a lot less easily fatigued. As a result I’ve been able to restore better balance to daily living and maintain a greater sense of calm. I’ve also identified some personal and professional goals that are inspiring.
