It’s one of the million things I misunderstood.<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
\n
One of the concepts that looked like a real, specific thing with fixed dimensions.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Love.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Feeling love.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Being in love.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Sharing love.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Celebrating love.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Love, love, love.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
But what does it mean?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
How does it look?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Or feel?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Can you do it?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Can you do it wrong?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Well, here’s what I’ve seen when it comes to coaching:<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
There are soft and gentle coaches, who whisper words of encouragement, very sparsely.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
There are feisty and loud coaches, who like to shout their words of inspiration, who are all over the place.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
And there is everything in between.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
But what does that have to do with love?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
What does it mean to coach from love?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Is it supposed to be soft, sweet, modest, patient?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Is it confronting, strict, sometimes harsh and critical?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Or is it all of that and sometimes none of that, depending on the human package it is delivered by?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
My coaching comes from love, just like my living comes from love.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
It’s a special mix.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Direct, kind, smart, engaged, with humor and perspective, and not much room for bullshit.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
It can be really gentle, and it can be very energetic and in your face.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
If I was forced to call it something, I’d probably go for<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Tough love.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
And if that’s what you need, you know where to go.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
