Have you ever left a coaching session feeling unfulfilled or unsure of the next steps?

They discuss the importance of managing the arc of a coaching session, starting with a 'blank chalkboard and empty table' to allow the coachee to guide the discussion. J.R. also compares coaching and mentoring, emphasizing that the coach must avoid taking the driver's seat and instead empower the coachee to find their own direction through thoughtful questioning. Tune in to learn when to ask 'why,' how to sit in silence to craft impactful questions, and the courage required of both coach and coachee in discovering powerful insights together!
