When I work with my clients I invite them to look at how they are Being or Showing Up in the world. This is not typical of personal development coaches. I believe self awareness is key and that to affect change in the outer world change has to start within the individual. Everything starts from that point. We are what we continuously think and so time will be spent on looking at the perpetual thoughts and the resultant beliefs that the client is running in their heads as part of their ‘programmes’. The stories are not often reliable! In the coaching relationship these beliefs will be questioned by the Coach and a lot of ‘unlearning’ may happen. This needs to happen before bad habits can change and a new way of being in the world can result.
