What is coaching?
I partner with clients to accelerate sustainable progress toward significant, time-bound goals by clarifying the objective, exploring limiting beliefs, charting a plan, and implementing supporting routines and habits with accountability.
My work focuses on clients who already have a sense of their direction, are looking to build clarity, and want to level up their focus to achieve a major goal like climbing a mountain, buying a house, launching a business, making a transformative decision or switching careers.
So really, what is coaching?
Coaching is a relationship between peers that supports the client in recognizing their objective, determining how to reach it, and moving them to their desired goal faster through accountability.
A coach is not a consultant, a mentor, or a teacher. You are the expert on your life. My role is to be a partner in refining your approach.
Will you tell me what I should do?
A coach’s role is NOT to tell you what to do, diagnose you, or give you advice.
Coaching is not therapy, consulting or mentoring. It is a good idea to ask a prospective coach if they are certified through the International Coaching Federation to ensure that they understand their role as a practitioner and the ethical tenets of client-driven work.
What about all those coaches on social media?
This isn’t Instagram coaching.
Anyone can claim to be a coach, but at Highland Coaching, you’re signing up for capital “C” coaching with a credentialed and trained professional who will apply research-based practices in your sessions.
