Hello Shiny Minds! ✨

I’m Dr. Shiny, and I’m thrilled to take you on another enlightening journey into the magic of your mind.

In this episode, we’re diving deep into what coaching really is—and what it is NOT.

Plus, I’ll share the top three misconceptions about coaching and how to bust them!

What is Coaching, Really? 🤔

Let’s start with the official definition from the International Coaching Federation (ICF):

Coaching is partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process to inspire them to maximize their personal and professional potential.

So, what does that mean?

It means that coaching is not about solving your client’s problems, telling them what to do, or giving advice.

Instead, coaching is about guiding them to discover their own answers, unlocking their inner brilliance, and helping them shine from within.

I’ll also uncover the 3 Biggest Coaching Misconceptions (And How to Bust Them!)

Why Coaching Matters

🌟 Coaching isn’t just about asking questions—it’s about rewiring the way you think, communicate, and lead.

In my language, coaching is like invisible brain surgery—your words shape your worlds, create your reality, influence your neurons, and create transformations for yourself and others.

And here’s the best part: when you embrace coaching, you don’t just change yourself—you elevate the world around you.
