In the spirit of switching things up, I thought it would be fun to turn the tables and unpack some of my coaching experience with Lauren Zander.
Lauren was on the show back on episode 069 to talk about her book Maybe It’s You, and today she is back to help unpack a little bit about the coaching process and what doing the work really means.
Before this interview I had a coaching session with Lauren and let me tell you… it was no joke. It was rather enlightening actually and I learned A LOT about myself, my life up until now, and some things I had no idea were operating in the background.
It all started with the HW I did for the session. I was super intimidated at first when her assistant let me know that it would take about 8 hours to complete… 31 pages later, I not only realized a ton about my life, but I actually realized I really like writing.
Today we are going to unpack some of our session together, what I discovered working with Lauren, the power of integrity, unraveling what haunts us and so much more.
In this episode you’ll learn
- Why we tend to pick coaches that are the opposite frequency of what we need
- The real work that’s required with an iron clad system of coaching
- Some of the investigation that’s required to uncover the truth about your personal history and contributing factors
- What hauntings are and how to start unraveling them
- How a swift kick in the ass was exactly what I needed but up until now was avoiding
- The difference between what you get out of a book and what can happen when you work with a coach
- Some of the instant actions I took and the results I saw
- The importance of metrics and measurements in defining a successful day
- How you are the only one who can define what success is for you in any endeavor
