Skilled Coach: IDK
from Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life Hosted by Michelle Burkhard
Sometimes the problem we are trying to solve is not actuallythe problem. Someone says they are overwhelmed, so we help them manage their time. They keep saying yes, so we help them organize theircalendar. They have too much to do, so we help them prioritize. All useful things. Unless the real problem has nothing to do with time. Maybe underneath all that busyness is a fear ofdisappointing someone. Maybe saying no feels like admitting they are not capable. Maybe there is a pattern that keeps recreating the same problem, no matter how many planners, goals, calendars, or systems we throw at it. Sometimes growth comes from becoming curious enough tonotice what is underneath what we can easily see. The pause. The change in energy. The contradiction. The sentence we keep repeating. The thing we almost say and then quickly move away from. We do not always need more answers. Sometimes we need to notice better.

How intentionally do I choose how to respond based on whatthis person needs right now? What patterns, contradictions, shifts in energy, or repeatedwords might I be missing? When might I be doing more helping than the moment actually requires? Am I helping someone create their own awareness, or am Isubtly steering them toward what I think I see?
