​The Search for Balance
"There’s so much going on—personally and at work—I just need to find a way to reduce my stress. I need something that will help me navigate all this uncertainty."

My client came into the session with an urgent need: to find strategies that would help him manage the overwhelming uncertainty in his life. The world around him felt unpredictable, and he was looking for ways to stay grounded amidst the chaos.

​But as we explored further, it became clear that the answer wasn’t about controlling external circumstances—it was about finding stability within himself.

The Crossroads of Too Many Options
"I feel stuck. I’ve been doing the same thing for three years, and I need something new—but I don’t know what. There are just too many options."

My client entered the session feeling lost, overwhelmed by possibilities yet yearning for change. They wanted a plan, something structured to help them feel secure, to provide direction, to offer support. But as we peeled back the layers, it became clear that this wasn’t just about having a plan—it was about gaining clarity on what they truly wanted.

​In my recent coaching session, I encountered a scenario where a client's initial determination on a fixed path was subtly narrowing his options. This experience powerfully demonstrated the role of coaching in broadening perspectives and opening up new possibilities.

My client was eager to convert his temp position into a full-time role at a large tech company but faced the pressure of a ticking clock with his visa application. Join me as we explore his journey from a confined viewpoint to an expansive vision of possibilities.

Coaching is about unlocking potential and guiding clients toward meaningful change. But often, clients approach sessions with tactical, surface-level goals. They believe solving a specific issue will unlock their happiness.

​For instance, a client might say they want to ace a job interview to land a higher-paying position. This is a solid starting point but fails to tap into the deeper motivations and barriers that define their journey. As coaches, we must intentionally go beyond what clients bring to the table, uncovering the layers beneath their stated goals.
