Coaching is...
According to the International Coach Federation (ICF), coaches honor the client as the expert in his or her own life and believe every client is creative, resourceful and whole. Standing on this foundation, the coaches responsibility is to:
- Discover, clarify and align with what the client wants to achieve
- Encourage client self-discovery
- Elicit client-generated solutions and strategies
- Hold the client responsible and accountable
This process helps clients dramatically improve their outlook on life, while improving their leadership skills and unlocking their potential.
As a health coach, I use the coaching process to help clients address blocks and reach goals related to the individual's optimal wellness.
