CoachUps is the magazine for professional coaching.
CoachUps is a credible information source and platform for:
The three of us (Paarul, Sunny and Nikhil) are excited about the power of coaching to transform lives, starting with our own.
We began discussing the idea on October 15, 2021 and after many hours of enjoying each other's company online, we finally decided that there was some space for CoachUps in this already cluttered world.
We could not find all the information we wanted about coaching in one place. So we decided to create it for ourselves. Close to a year of CatchUp’s where we exchanged notes and helped each other learn and grow, gave birth to CoachUps.
The professional coaching industry is growing rapidly. Coaching can and does have the power to be a force of good in this world.
We want CoachUps to be a source of inspiration and a resource for Coaches and anyone interested in coaching.
The only way is UP.
I see coaching as a wonderful investment of time and energy into one’s mental...
wellness. The future is going to be driven by an attention economy. Coaching helps me focus on what is important. Having discovered my core purpose, my core strengths and my core values, it makes it easier for me to pay attention to those things. If each one of us were able to find our true calling and live in alignment with that, the world would be a better place. The pursuit of this dream has led me to the doorstep of “CoachUps”. The best way to learn is to ask questions. That’s what coaches do for a living. To approach each topic and session with a “beginners’ eyes of innocence” no judgment, just curiosity and compassion. In this context, I believe that my relative newness in the coaching industry is my biggest strength. I see everything afresh. My quest is to keep asking questions, to help find the answers that will build a sustainable coaching culture in society at large. Coaching has been transformational in sports and business. As the discipline matures and evolves, I hope to see a world where many more people from all walks of life have access to professionally trained coaches. Welcome to CoachUps. The intersection of two worlds I love, Coaching and Communication, which are beautifully linked. The Coach in me facilitates self-awareness and the Communicator enables self-expression. Everything you wanted to know about coaching but didn’t know whom to ask, brought to you week after week in boxes of different shapes and sizes, that we then open for you. CoachUps for me is about exploring the opportunities that coaching presents and learning more about this wonderful world, while using my skills as a communicator. I can’t think of a better way to spend my time and hopefully yours as well.
It always sounded a little bit nuts to me that you weren’t expected to be human
The pandemic (yup, you know it would figure!) has brought empathy to the center stage of work life. It has changed the rules of employee engagement. But ask any employee and they will secretly feel what exactly to do with this empathy elephant in the room. How to be empathetic and yet get the work done. Sounds familiar? In my coaching training, I found that coaching helps you hit that sweet spot between getting work done and be supportive of colleagues, leaders and other stakeholders at the same time. I was, however, surprised at the confusion that still exists about what coaching is. Well, its not advise for a start. Which is why Sunny, Nikhil and I, all of us super passionate about coaching are trying to build awareness about how coaching can help you, introduce the world to the incredible coaching talent in India, create resources for coaches to get them updated on the latest coaching trends and offer you, dear reader, support for those, ‘OMG what do I do now’ moments in life.

If I could go back in history and ask for the one thing to be added in my professional..
Coaching is a proven way of helping people to lead meaningful lives as they become conscious in their decision making, achieve their objectives and find fulfillment. I discovered coaching after 17 years of working as a finance professional in various roles in companies. Having now seen its impact personally, I wonder why it was not available during my early years. Professional coaching is itself a young profession of some 25 odd years. Researched and developed initially in the west, it has now spread to the entire world and is being used especially for people in senior management and leadership roles who vouch for its value in unlocking their own potential. Through ‘Coachups’, my endeavor is to further democratize it, by sharing anecdotes on the power of coaching and how it is helping people to shape their lives to their own liking.
