Character Strengths Coaching
Presentation of Self and Life Script Exploration

Life scripts have a deep and subconscious effect on how we live our lives. They affect the decisions we make and control what we think we should do and should not do. They shape our self-image and our presentation of self in everyday life. We often have no idea that we’ve constructed these scripts or where they come from, but nevertheless they are powerful and can impose destructive and unnecessary restrictions on our choices throuhout life. Once this plan or life script is made, it influences the whole course of our life.

In shaping our image, we all wear "masks" of one kind or another...and those masks represent the façade of emotions a person might "wear" in front of other people. Masking is hiding your authentic self; the outward appearance of the mask does not match the true inner-emotions that are beneath it, and masking behavior obscures your natural personality. We each have a "front-stage persona" and a "back-stage persona" as part of our Life Script. The coaching sessions explore life scripts and masking, and how to be consciously aware of them with the goal of developing positive, prosocial counterscripts.

“We do not write our opening lines. We inherit them. Adult behavior is not free will; it is a rigid replay of an inherited script.”
