What is appropriate to talk about in coaching?
Some people will want to focus just on the issue at hand, for example, finding a career, improving a relationship, etc. However, coaching recognizes that you are a whole person! Your whole life is a system, in which each aspect affects every other. How are you going to make a good decision about your career future if you hate your home environment? How are you going to improve your relationship if you are completely stressed out about money? So, as much as you are comfortable, your coach will encourage you to consider your whole life: Physical, mental, emotional, spiritual (connection to something larger than yourself), health, environment, relationships, work/career, finances, etc. Of course, if anything is off limits, just let your coach know! Usually you will set the ground rules early in your sessions. Learn more about life coaching here…
