The limits of Goals in coaching & the superpower of Desire
Traditionally, what does a coach start with?
By determining their client’s goals.
That’s important, right, because otherwise, what are you there for? And why would a client pay you money to support them?
The way we look at that in Soul-based Coaching?
It’s a funny one, because yes, and also, no.
Of course, you need direction as a coach, a reference point throughout the work together, to help you determine where to direct attention for the client and how to best be of service.
We want to know what it is the client wants, and how they will know they have gotten what they want.
We want the client to create a very clear picture of what they want to call in.
But when you look at it from a new paradigm perspective, goals are pretty limited as the anchor for your coaching session.
In this episode, let’s dive into why that is the case, and what else you can do.
In the episode, I share:
- What the limits of goals are in a coaching setting, and what you miss out on when goals are what you anchor your sessions in
- The relationship between goals and DESIRE
- Why desire has such a bad reputation, and how that is a testament to its power to create
- Why so many of us live with a lid on our desire, and how that is holding us back in living the life we came here for
- How to start helping your clients tap into the creative life power of desire to supercharge their results, without setting desire itself centre stage (because that would probably just distract!)
