Sometimes the most helpful thing and wisest thing, and simplest - TopicsExpress



          

Sometimes the most helpful thing and wisest thing, and simplest thing you can do is allow a client to vent.. Venting is not whining, and a good Coach knows the difference. For the heavy-handed Coach who is always of the attitude I dont want to hear it - then you arent a very good Coach. Often, clients cant go to family or friends to vent for all kinds of reasons - mostly fear of reprisals or judgments. But if that pot has been simmering for a long-time and that lid is too tight - venting to let the steam out, is better than that lid exploding, or worse imploding. When my clients are going through some things or struggling - the first thing I offer many of them is that I am always here if you need to vent. Because I know the value in letting them know they have that option - where they may not have it anywhere else in their life - not in a safe and secure way that is. There is a difference between client whining and client in need of venting. And I pity anyone who is with a Coach who doesnt know that difference, when it matters. REMEMBER - the Coach is supposed to be there for you - you arent paying them for you to be there for them. And if your Coach is ONLY ABOUT, diet and training compliance - well that is a glorified trainer - NOT A COACH. rant over bit.ly/sLL8Uq
