This week, we’ve got another health coaching Q&A episode for you. We’ve taken listener questions and riffed on them so you can learn and we can grow.
In this episode, Erin tackles burnout in health coaching and provides tips on finding jobs. She also gives strategies that include optimizing sessions and group coaching. These are some valuable insights for health coaches seeking balance and opportunities.
More specifically, Erin has chosen two related questions to address:
First is a question from Eric. He explains that his business has grown to the point where he is feeling burnt out. He had a busy month full of discovery calls, onboarding sessions, and existing client calls, which made him feel like he was on Zoom the entire month. Eric asks for advice on how to regain some of his time, as he is unsure if he can continue at this pace.
Next is a question from Rebecca about being naturally entrepreneurial. Erin reassures listeners that even if they’re not naturally inclined towards entrepreneurship, there are still plenty of health coaching jobs available, both in-person and remote.
Erin then moves on to a teaching moment where she shares a framework for coaching conversations that includes goal setting and accountability. She explains that every coaching session should have a goal and that an accountability plan should be built with the client’s input. She shares different ways to ask clients about accountability, including asking for support, discussing strategies, setting checkpoints, and tracking progress.
