  • Coaching Q&A Series: What If I Don’t Know What I Want Yet?
    Jan 7 2025

    In this Coaching Q&A episode, I’m answering a common question: “What if I don’t know what I want yet?”
    Many people hesitate to seek coaching because they feel unclear about their goals or next steps. But that’s exactly where coaching can make a difference.

    Drawing from my coaching experience, I share how we work together to create clarity, uncover your goals, and map out actionable steps—whether you’re a career pivoter, a leader, or building a business. If you’ve ever felt stuck or unsure, this episode is here to help you move forward with confidence and a plan.


    Key Takeaways:

    • The Role of Coaching: How coaching helps you gain clarity through self-discovery, not by dictating solutions.
    • Self-Guided Discovery: The process of uncovering your values, strengths, and goals through patterns in your past experiences and feedback.
    • Breaking Down Big Goals: Turning vague aspirations into a clear, actionable plan.
    • Leadership Clarity: Understanding feedback like “build executive presence” and translating it into tangible actions.
    • Real-Life Insights: How coaching has helped clients and me personally gain clarity, create plans, and take action.
