I think I’ve come up with three pretty good reasons that they fail, and I offer three strategies for how to make sure you don’t fall victim to one (or all three!) of those dangers! 3 Reasons Coaches Fail in Business Building: Employee vs. Business Mindset I see Coach …

I Went on a J.O.B. Interview

Oh-so-quietly last month, I went on a J.O.B. interview. Wha?!?!? Yes, it’s true. For several months, I’d been feeling burned out, bummed out, and kinda blue about running my business. So many hats to wear, so many unending tasks to complete, so much loneliness day-in and day-out.  Over dinner one cold January night with a couple of dear, dear friends, I shared my feelings. They said “what about doing something completely different?” The idea tantalized me, so I dove into exploring what getting a …

The Discovery Session – Chariti Style!

I am a big believer in doing a foundational discovery session with each and every client at the outset of the coaching relationship. For me, the discovery session is a half-day (3-4 hour) workshop where the client and I spend time really digging in and getting in touch with what the client wants, where he/she is headed, and how we’re going to “be” together as coach and client.  Done well, this session is incredibly impactful for the client and very informational for you as the coach. Here’s what …
