If you want to become the most wise, authentic, engaged, and impactful version of yourself, you need a coach.   This episode is part 2 of Jessie answering questions from women physicians. Questions I address in this episode include: Why did I choose “coaching”? What drew me to it​? What is the difference between coaching and therapy?  Is coaching and running Pause & Presence what I expected?  Are there people that coaching is not right for?   What is the most surprising thing I have discovered about coaching?  Do I carry people's problems with me? If not, how do I put them down? Do I feel like I need to coach people in my own life?  How long do people usually do coaching?  How do people know when they are "done" with coaching?  Do you keep in touch after?    Coaching is a performance tool and a sustainability tool. Professional athletes have coaches. Doctors need them too. It is about: optimization, performance, and fulfillment agency, choice, and lessening your suffering.  being strategic and not making hard things harder  Coaching is a solutions-focused approach that helps healthy but burnt-out, stuck humans who are out of alignment and/or not functioning at their highest level.   Ways to Work With Me As a Coach 1:1 Private Coaching  I offer a 3 month package of private coaching with six 1:1 sessions, extensive resources, and individualized support.
