What are your coaching focus areas and why are they meaningful to you?
Each of my focus areas are foundational to a meaningful and joy-filled life on earth and beyond. Alternatively, getting these areas wrong can bring much unnecessary pain and misery. I passionately want others to excel in these areas. Of course, it is each person’s decision to choose the areas and topics they want to be coached on.
What are your current interests outside of coaching?
What books or resources have most influenced your life in recent years?
Below, I list the important resources in the order I encountered them and applied them to my life. They helped me understand myself better and gave me topics to coach myself on and bring to talk therapy sessions with my licensed professional counselor (LPC). Looking back, many of my later counseling sessions were similar in nature to coaching sessions. Those topics greatly influenced the areas I chose to focus on in my life coaching business.
