Hope you can join me for some great tips on how to be an effective accountability partner for your health coaching clients.

When it comes to providing accountability with your clients are you an enforcer drill sergeant or a quiet timid mouse? The drill sergeant enforcer demands the client be accountable with a forceful tone, "How will you let me know you did this?" The quiet mouse doesn't even ask for fear of overstepping and feeling pushy. ... Finding the happy balance of accountability is a challenge for new health coaches. In my facebook live tomorrow, I'll share some tips to help you co-create agreements around accountability and help your clients succeed in achieving their action steps.

Happy New Year friends. Here’s to more presence, balance and lightheartedness for 2021

I don't think too many of us are sad to see the end of 2020. Woah, it's been a year! And while you might be tempted to just shut the door and never look back, I also think there's value in reflecting, unravelling and taking stock of the year that was. Then you have more of a solid foundation to take what you learned and plan for the upcoming year. ... This year a created a two-part reflecting and planning process specifically for health coaches and packaged them into two downloadable guides. Part 1 walks you through 15 reflective questions about your health coaching accomplishments and challenges from in 2020. Part 2 guides you through 10 powerful questions to help you mindfully plan your health coaching for 2021. If you haven't yet taken time to reflect and plan, it's not too late. The next few days, as we welcome in the New Year, is perfect. Whether you're still a health coach student, recently graduated or have a coaching business, you'll find this process valuable Drop me an emoji or comment below and let me know if you'd like me to DM you links to the reflection and planning guides My hope is that you'll carve out some time over the next few days to work through them with a hot cuppa, a candle, favourite pen and a snuggly corner to dream in #healthcoach #healthcoaching #healthcoachbiz #healthcoachplanning #2021planning #2021goalsetting
