Step 1: Start With the Why?
Transcript
So when it comes to why somebody should start the coaching business, I want to draw actually a personal example, because I think it’s the easiest way to relate to that question. So the reason, for example, why I really was drawn to that profession [have] was I figured out that my personality is very much suited towards working with people. I naturally love to work with people. I would love, love, love to go and study human psychology, but in a very practical way. So, therefore, there are many other professions that you can choose working with people who can become a doctor, a nurse, a psychologist, so many other professions. But when it comes to human development and growth, coaching is definitely the profession that is on the top of my mind. And that has been an interest of mine for a very long time, almost since I am a teenager. At that time, I did not know that this profession existed. It was more like a hobby. But later on, I found out that actually I can turn my hobby into a profession which I’m very happy that I found out. So the reason why I become a coach is first and foremost because I’m deeply interested in understanding people and helping people to grow and mature, to become something more than they can even envision for themselves. And to see their potential blossoming. This is also my desire for myself, and I am constantly on that journey of self-improvement and moving forward with my own process of maturity.
When it comes to more practical things about why I chose to work with women. I want to point that it’s very important to have a bigger vision here, not just about your coaching business, but it’s also how does it fit in the bigger picture of life, in the bigger picture of what’s happening actually in the world right now. And I saw at some point that my work with the women is contributing to a bigger process in [the] life of empowering the feminine, not just the women, but empowering the feminine to bring a balance between the feminine and the masculine in the world, because we see that we live in a world, where masculine is still more powerful and suppressing the feminine, not just, I’m not talking on the men and women, but in general the feminine and masculine energies. And it is very necessary that would bring a power balance between the feminine and masculine both in ourselves, but also in our relationships in the society. So therefore, I really could see a match inside of me and a match of what is demanded of the current times as a work. So therefore, I feel very confident that what I do is useful and at the same time it is in alignment with my own values and with my own personality.
