Sean knows that I coach others as a big part of my business. He can intelligently discuss a lot of internet marketing topics because he hears me talking about it so much of the day. He has always thought it was pretty cool that people pay for my help and that they actually come back for more. (I’ve had some clients for two years now who come back for focusing sessions or help in developing a new idea.)
So when I hired him an Algebra Coach this week I thought he’d be happy.
He wasn’t.
It might be because his new Coach is a seventeen year old girl who lives next door to my niece but he was very resistant to the idea from the moment I suggested it. If he could have thought of any way to get out of it short of just refusing to leave the house I think he would have.
But – today he went to his first coaching appointment and about two hours later he messaged me on his phone that they had conquered 1/3 of his course exams in the short time that they were together.
One Third!
Now, Sean had done some of the work before hand – but he had big empty spaces where he wasn’t sure what to do. (I am not a math minded mom so I’m no help at all.)
Suffice it to say that Sean is now an even greater fan of getting coached. He has seen for himself that there is no shame in letting someone with more experience help you through a learning curve.
I’m proud of him. He’s looking forward to his next session!
I have two spots left for my six week coaching package that starts next week. If you’re ready to tackle your learning curve with some help from a coach, why not sign up?
