A coach reflects on how working with early clients transformed their sense of purpose. They discovered coaching felt like what they were meant to do, and watching people change through that work became a decades-long passion.
When you started doing the coaching in those early years, but when the people started coming back to you and then you were able to coach them and support them and really help them understand a lot more about who they are and their identities, what was that like for you personally to be able to help people really make that shift and realize and have a bit, have a, a clearer understanding of who they are and their potential?
Probably life-changing. You know, a lot of people, people talk about purpose and having purpose. And I, I felt like in, in that sort of framework that I had found my purpose, like this is what I was put on the planet to do. Right. Boom. It also helped me see the beauty and the importance and the relevance of doing things that connect with other people in this world. And so it was a lot of, a lot of things that really fed into why coaching was just going to be such a core passion for me for decades to come.
