But the idea of having someone to support and encourage our dreams strikes many people as unusual or new. You begin by finding and interviewing one or more potential coaches, until you find someone you believe can assist you. It is important that you are comfortable and confident with the person you choose. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Since Coaching is often done on the telephone or even by email, you might never actually meet your Coach face to face.
Personal meetings are usually helpful, however, and it's nice when that can be arranged.
More often, Coaching is done by scheduling a time for you to call your coach. Hopefully, you have made a list of items you want to discuss, perhaps some projects you are working on. The conversation usually ends with scheduling your next appointment. That varies, but is always scheduled in advance by mutual agreement. It is up to the client and what they believe they need and want.
