How should I prepare before coaching session?
Everyone’s situation is different, so before your coaching session, you could consider: 1. Clarify your goals: Figure out what your goals are for seeking assistance from a coach. Clear goals can help me better understand your needs and provide support needed. 2. Be open-minded: Be prepared to accept new perspectives and suggestions. Life coach is to guide and support, and an open attitude allows you to better benefit from coaching. 3. Self-reflection: Before the coaching session begins, take some time to think about your own values, strengths, challenges, and expectations for life. This facilitates deeper conversations. 4. Questions or List: Make a list of specific questions and concerns you would like to discuss during the consultation. This helps ensure you cover important topics in the limited time you have. 5. Expectations: Thinking about your expected results for the coaching in advance will help you and the coach establish a common goal and ensure that the coaching is purpose-driven. 6. Self-forgiveness: Remember that the life coaching process can involve deep self-exploration. Being tolerant and accepting of yourself helps create a positive counseling environment. 7. Understand the coach’s background: Before starting a coaching session, make sure you understand the coach’s background, competences, and relevant experience to ensure you choose the right coach. Everyone is unique. Before officially starting a long-term life coaching program, try to align the scope as much as possible, so as to get the greatest value from your coaching. Establishing a good working relationship with the coach makes the entire counseling process more effective. But in fact, the easiest way is to schedule a chat with your coach for Chemistry Check, talk directly to the life coach, and check in with your own situation. I believe that most coaches will be willing to listen to your needs and discuss the best coworking model with you.
