This week’s conversation with my Coach, Claudia went well and it got into a bunch of different areas. Mostly we talked about how helpful it has to have people’s input on what we all have in our heads.
We talked most about how we view ourselves and how there are certain people in the world that help us attain that “best version of ourselves” as possible. Usually these people are our family or our friends but it can even be someone outside of our network that we go to. This can be a therapist, a life coach, or even just someone that you run into on the train. The main theme turned to emphatic listening and how having a witness is so important and almost essential to answering the questions about yourself that the assignment lays out.
Mainly I spoke about how I struggle to find balance in my life and that i don't think my wife understands exactly what I go through on the inside. Then it turned into her coaching me in to making sure I am a generative listener to her so that she would do the same for me.
I think that there is no harm done in these conversations because having someone to bounce ideas off of helps us frame or thoughts in a way that organizes it in our own minds.
