There IS good stress!

Are you stressed? It is normal and CAN be a good thing!

Stress is a normal part of life and without it you really would not get anything done.

Those deadlines (unless there are too many all at once) are actually helpful.

Even having a visitor over can stress you enough to finally pick up and clean a bit.

Stress can also tell you what is important in your life.

What you value can stress you out – this is important to know!

I have a friend who often says, “I don’t care anymore.” But of course, she does.

The stress you have can point to what you care about (often what you care about most). This a good place to start (and end): reflection! What do you value?

Are you underwater, swimming, resurfacing, or on a raft relaxing?

I am resurfacing from an extremely busy few weeks. I knew it would be that way and I was prepared.

What about you? How do you prepare?

What are you telling yourself?

Is it positive and helpful or critical?

Looking for Something? Looking for help? What do you need? What do you want?

Are you in need of a coach, but wonder if they can really help you?

Or have you had a coach but been disappointed by the price and the results?

Many of you look for a coach when there is some sort of crisis and maybe you are rash in choosing a “package” or adding on after a freebie coach bot…

As usual, “Buyer, be aware!”

What is your need and what do you want to accomplish is the first thing.

Ethical guidelines in coaching - what are my no-go's

I recently read The Ethical Coaches’ Handbook and it has given me some thoughts and some activities to do, such as organizing a “will” for my practice. It is full of ideas and helpful hints for me as a coach and supervisor.

I highly recommend this book for coaches and supervisors - as not only something to borrow and read quickly, but to have on one’s office bookshelf, not to gather dust, but to use and return to and to help us “helpers” ponder what is ethical, what is in the gray zone, and what is a no-go for coaches.

This makes me think about some of my own no-go’s as a certified coach and supervisor.

One big one is “taking advantage” of a client. This has a few aspects to it.

What do I do, actually?

As some of you know, I blog BUT actually, I am a lecturer and trainer, a business coach, supervisor and a spiritual director. The next two blogs will be about supervision vs. coaching, starting with supervision.

What is Supervision, after all?

Supervision is a relational process of personal development where the client(s)become aware of and reflect on and then develop their personal resources for positive change both regarding themselves and their work environment.
