Day 9 – The Coaching Conversation
Today’s Goal:
Learn the key elements that create a powerful coaching conversation — and reflect on where you can grow.
💥This will be important for your discovery calls
My Coaching Advice:
Coaching is more than just asking questions. It’s about creating the right context for transformation. Without context, coaching can feel cold, transactional, or unfocused.
Here are the 7 Core Contexts of Coaching you need to master:
- Acknowledge & Affirm Why? Helps your client feel heard, builds trust, and opens them up. Without it: Sessions feel cold, and clients shut down .
- Get Comfortable Being Uncomfortable Why? You get to the real issues faster and talk about what matters most. Without it: You stay on the surface and never help your client break through .
- Be Curious Why? Curiosity leads to powerful, intuitive questions and removes the pressure to “sound smart.” Without it: You risk missing what the client really needs .
- Hold the Vision Why? Keeps the client focused on what they said they wanted most. Without it: Sessions veer off track, and clients lose momentum .
- Extremize Why? Asking extreme questions forces deeper thinking about what really matters. Without it: Conversations stay too safe, and transformation is minimal .
- Get a Recent Vivid Example Why? It makes coaching practical and generates clear, actionable solutions. Without it: Action steps stay vague and results stay weak .
- Invite Them to Think Bigger Why? Helps clients dream again and get excited about what’s possible. Without it: They settle for less than they’re capable of .
Practical Exercise:
📝 Coaching Context Reflection
- Identify which of these 7 contexts is your natural strength.
- Choose one you find most challenging and commit to practicing it this week.
- Decide which of these you’d like someone to do for you (because even coaches need coaching!).
Call to Action:
Post or share which of these contexts you will focus on strengthening this week. Bonus points if you share a short story or example of how you’ve used one of these with a client, co-worker, or even a friend.
Affirmation of the Day:
“I create a coaching environment where my VIPs feel seen, heard, and inspired to think bigger.”
