Client A totally impressed me this week. Not only did she complete her challenge, she carried it over into 3 other tasks and did those thoroughly and with such gusto! I could hear the excitement in her voice, and what it’s like to just turn over a whole new leaf and feel like a whole new person. It was inspiring for me, actually.

Our session ended over an hour ago, but everything she did just bowled me over, and I emailed her to reiterate how impressed and in awe I was. I hope that I continue to be a coach that wears that cheerleader hat and will reach out to a client that took a major step (or 5 major steps!) to say, again, how awesome they are. It really just energizes me and makes me feel like I’m a real, live, living & breathing life coach!

I was going to end the post here, but I do have to give myself a little feedback. Today I was still not shutting my mouth as quickly as I wanted to, but since I was conscious of it it was better than last week. But also, because I didn’t want to “lead” her, it was hard to put my thoughts together. At one point I had a sentence last about a minute, and then said “I’m not making any sense” and she agreed (but not in a mean way or nothing)! But it didn’t throw me - I just took a second, breathed, and tried again. I still think what I said was a bit convoluted, but she got it.

I think I’m getting a little bit better at this…..

I’m grateful for having such an incredibly awesome, exciting, thrilling, first client!
