Before I begin a coach-client relationship with anyone, we’ll have a free video call so we can briefly get to know each other, and whether we’re both on the same page to work together. In this session you’ll learn more about coaching, and I can get a quick view about your primary challenge.
I never provide specific answers as a coach, but instead I ask the questions to help you find the answers yourself. If you’re challenges are to do with work-life balance or stress management, then our sessions will help find solutions that specifically work for you to improve these things.
Absolutely it will! If you begin our sessions unsure of your goals and purpose, this is something we can resolve fairly quickly, then you’ll have a focus on what needs to be achieved. The details about how and when, are things we can discuss in our sessions.
You’ll be given contact information to send text or verbal messages which I can respond to within 24 hours Monday to Friday, or 36 hours on the weekend. It’s likely that you’ll receive a response before these deadlines, but it depends on my availability.
The number one thing to look for is someone who you get along with, as this will be the key sign that you’re likely to make progress. It’s not about becoming friends, but more like a casual acquaintance. Someone who can stick to their times for each session is also very helpful, and this is something I also look for in an ideal client. A good coach never gives you direct answers or solutions, because a good coach should be able to ask insightful questions to guide you towards the answers yourself.
