The Truth About Choosing the Wrong Path
from The Magic is You · host Michelle Rohr
What do you do when you have three possible paths in front of you and no idea which one to choose? In this episode, I'm answering a listener question about finding a coach and making the "right" decision — and challenging the idea that there even is one. I share why waiting for the perfect mentor before making a move might be keeping you stuck, what a good coach can (and cannot) do for you, and why the most important skill you can build in business has nothing to do with strategy. Here's the quick list of what's covered in this episode:You already know which path to choose — a good coach's job is to help you see what's already inside you, not tell you what to doThere is no wrong path, only paths that teach you more about yourselfThe real lesson entrepreneurship is trying to teach you right now is to stop being afraid of making the wrong choiceLife will keep bringing the same lesson back around until you learn it — and it gets harder each timeA good coach helps you learn your lessons faster, not avoid them altogetherCoaching works best when you already have a foundation of self-trust and self-awarenessInvesting in high-level coaching before you've done the foundational work often leads to freezing, not growthThe most important skill in entrepreneurship is becoming someone who can make decisions quickly and trust themselves to course-correct if needed
