   All about working with a coach

For many years I looked for the best piece of advice or guidance from others that will propel me to career fulfilment. Now, I have come to understand that the solution was always within me.

About two years ago, I found something natural yet unique – The ability to listen to myself. A coach created a safe space for me so that I could explore my own thoughts.

Here are my 3 major wins which came as a result of professional coaching.

Creating my own signature way

I enjoy creative arts, music as much as I enjoy analytics and logic. While I wanted to do both, the career options available restricted my free expression of using both sides of the brain together.

Coaching enabled me to embrace who I am, what I want to do and then take concrete actions in that direction.

Today as an entrepreneur, I do coaching, consulting, therapy, workshops, make films, and play instrument. I am comfortable acknowledging my thoughts and feelings and live fully.

Ability to work with failure without burnout

Failure is more natural than success. Failure is about moving ahead while success is that you have arrived at your destination.

When I now fail, I don’t hide. Instead I share it with my coach in a session. I let go of the fear, shame, other emotions or any redundant belief systems. As a result of it what comes out is a Plan B or course correction.

As I keep moving with my values, success comes and without harmful feelings.

Delivering on my potential

As a founder of a coaching business, I have to be a good salesperson. Prior to being a coach, I was heading finance in a corporate and was not used to doing sales. When I took this up in a session, I was able to let go of the doubts I had in my mind that limited me.
