The most important part of coaching happens between sessions.
You are held accountable for your goals while getting enormous
support and congratulations at every step. You also get
never-ending interest, commitment and patience in re-working
your goals, removing obstacles and staying on track.
“Whether
they are contemplating a big change or just want to make
their lives more satisfying, coaching can help people accomplish
their goals more quickly. Coaches don’t tell you what to
do, they help you figure out what you want, and support
you as you go after it.”

Talking. Exploring. Discovering. Coaching starts with questions.
What do you want? What do you value? What are your dreams?
What stops you short? Your coach works to help you remember
who you really are and what you really want in your career,
relationships, health or home.
Here’s where coaching goes beyond. It’s about
details - what exactly you are going to do tomorrow, what
the first priority is, and how you will keep focused and
motivated. It’s not about what your coach thinks you
should do, it’s about what will work just for you -
your personality, your situation, your values.
