What Coaching Really Is (And Why It Might Be Exactly What You Need)

Coaching is about change and renewal.

It’s like a seed shedding its husk. A process that’s natural, necessary—and sometimes uncomfortable.

Coaching invites you to take a brave look at the parts of yourself, your patterns, or your ways of working that no longer serve you.

It’s not about judging those parts or pretending they never existed.

It’s about offering them a grateful goodbye and then gently, courageously welcoming something new.

A new way of being.

A new way of working.

A new way of making space for what matters most.

This new beginning often looks like germination—quiet at first, subtle, and deeply rooted. And yes, it happens through inner work.

Here’s the thing: inner work isn’t abstract, woo, or separate from “real” work. It’s the very thing that allows you to take aligned, authentic, sustainable action—especially if what you want is to run your business in a way that feels right to you.

Inner work is what creates momentum.

It clarifies your decisions.

It deepens your impact.

It reconnects you to yourself, your values, and your purpose.

And inner work—when done through coaching—asks a lot of you.

Coaching can feel tender, even tough at times.

It can stir up emotions, surface fears, and ask you to take full responsibility for your choices.

And that’s the beauty of it: it gives you back your power. Not by fixing you but by walking beside you while you uncover your own answers.

Coaching is not a shortcut. It’s not a feel-good chat.

It’s a process. A relationship. A mirror. A companion for the road.

Sometimes, coaching will make you want to curse or cry or question everything. But that’s part of the change. And real, long-term change is never superficial. It’s deep. Personal. Transformative.

If you’re wondering whether coaching is right for you, you don’t have to figure it out alone. You can ask a coach you’re considering to support you in making that decision. (That’s part of the work, too.)

I wouldn’t be doing you any favors by only telling you about the benefits.

I can’t promise ease—or even a specific result. But I can promise this:

You’ll find your own way.

You’ll tap into inner resources you didn’t know you had.

And you’ll have tools you can return to again and again—tools that support not just your business but your whole life.

Coaching will challenge you.

But the way it will empower you can change everything.
