I love to help my clients gain clarity on their core values as they set their priorities. I love to see them succeed as they set their goals and use my Wishing Out Loud® coaching model and R.O.C.K.S.™ methodology and approach to progress towards making those dreams a reality.
The Wishing Out Loud® R.O.C.K.S.™ Approach, created and trademarked by Lisa M. Ong, PCC, CPA, is her signature coaching framework that helps leaders, teams, and professionals ask for what they need with clarity, build meaningful relationships, and create cultures of belonging. At its core, the approach teaches people to invest in lasting trusting relationships to keep “wishing out loud,” turning hopes into clear, actionable asks that others can support.
The R.O.C.K.S. ™ acronym stands for:
- Resources — the tools, information, or support you need to move forward.
- Opportunities — chances to grow, stretch, or shine.
- Connections — people who can help, advise, or open doors.
- Knowledge — insights, skills, or expertise that strengthen your path.
- Support — encouragement, advocacy, and sponsorship that sustain momentum.
Why the R.O.C.K.S.™ Approach matters
It gives leaders and emerging professionals a simple, memorable way to:
- Build trust through meaningful conversations
- Strengthen relationships by giving and asking with intention
- Create clarity around goals and next steps
- Foster inclusive cultures where people feel seen, valued, and supported
