So, What IS Coaching?

Coaching is not what most people think. 

If your first thought is basketball or soccer when you hear that someone is a coach, you’re not alone! People often ask me what sport I coach.  And while I’ve really enjoyed coaching my kids’ teams, I’m a different type of coach now. And, no, I’m not a Life Coach—though that’s a bit closer.

Truth be told, it’s a little hard to quickly explain what professional coaching is. It’s easier to start with what coaching is not.
