Coaching topics!
Thursday, November 10, 2022I am an evidence-based life and career coach and I often speak to people who are curious about coaching, who are keen to see if coaching can help them. They tend to ask: what kinds of stuff do you coach people about?
Here’s my answer!
Coaching is a goal-oriented and solution-focused conversation that is designed to help you work out who you are, what you want and where you want to go. If there is anything in your life or career that you would like to change, anything that is within your control, that you can set a goal around and actively work towards…then I can coach you on it.
Different coaches work in different areas. I am a generalist coach with a special interest in career shifts. I am also a coach who focuses on internal shifts to support and sustain practical shifts [some coaches just focus on changing the doing, without much regard for the internal processes that are fuelling those practical ways of being].
Here are the most common coaching topics that I see in my practice:
- I want to change career [lots of these people have NO IDEA what else they could do and feel really stuck]
- I want to feel more confident
- I want to perform better at work [or: I’ve been told I need to perform better at work]
- I know I’m not happy but I don’t know what’s wrong or how to fix it
- I am trying to make an important decision and I’m stuck
- I want to feel more motivated
- I am keen to start a business
- I want to stop procrastinating
- I’m desperate to stop my self-doubt / negative self-talk / Imposter Syndrome getting in my way
- I feel like I have no purpose [Why am I here?? What am I meant to do?]
- I am struggling with a relationship and want to resolve it
- I am trying to communicate more effectively
- I want someone to keep me accountable [I’ll do this initially but then I’ll help you become accountable to yourself!]
If you’re keen to make some life and career-enhancing shifts and you think some evidence-based coaching could help – please be in touch, I’d love to help.
