Here’s a real text I sent to my coach yesterday
This is a real text I sent to my coach yesterday:
Quick side note to you re: how you are creating value in my life right now:
Not only was our conversation very helpful but you are now my “mental buddy” that I keep having conversations with in my head re: my business.
And that’s highly valuable to me because I’ve been trying to have this conversation in my head with myself for many months. But it’s a scary conversation to have alone — I keep getting lost in it without making progress.
The mental conversation with you feels like a sunny room where we’re just hanging out and spitballing. It’s WAY less scary and confusing than doing it alone. It just feels fun and exploratory.
If you’re feeling stuck right now…
Stuck about how to get everything done without burning yourself out.
Stuck about what to do next in your career.
Stuck about whether to make it work where you are or make a big change.
Stuck about how to get to where you want to be from where you are now without totally screwing up and falling flat on your face in the process.
Chances are, you’re stuck in an unproductive conversational loop with yourself.
(And maybe also your spouse, family, or friends, who are tired of hearing you talk about the same topic ad nauseum :)
A coach is basically a friendly mental buddy that helps you break out of that conversational loop.
A coach is an expert in turning circular conversations into straight-line conversations.
Conversations where decisions get made, clarity is gained, insights break through, and that unsettled “wtf am I doing?” feeling gets resolved.
Think of me like a Marie Kondo for your mind.
We’ll walk into the messy room of your mind together.
You’ll say, “So sorry it looks like this. This is such a mess.”
I’ll say, “No worries! I love mess!”
And then we’ll start sorting through all the thoughts and questions and fears in your mind one by one.
We’ll see what sparks joy — the thoughts you like, the insights you agree with, the beliefs that represent the person you want to be…
And what doesn’t spark joy — the assumptions you want to question, the thoughts that send you into spirals, the ceilings you inadvertently put on yourself, the old way of thinking that doesn’t represent who you are anymore…
We’ll sort through it all piece by piece, one at a time.
We’ll put it all back together in an arrangement that works for you — that creates the feelings and actions and results you want.
And you’ll have a lot of fun while we’re doing it because you won’t be alone anymore.
You’ll have a buddy by your side.
This is what my coach does for me.
And this is what I do for you.
So if you’ve been feeling stuck, and you’re tired of talking yourself in circles…
Stop talking to yourself and come talk to me :)
You can sample exactly what this process looks with a free anonymous public coaching call.
Or, if you’re ready for not just one nudge but for getting fully unstuck and getting to where you want to be…
Come talk to me about how we could work together and let’s map out a full coaching engagement :)
What my clients have to say…
“I was worried about the cost. But every single session was well worth it.
Coaching with Pooja is the best investment I made last year, by far.
And I made a lot of investments last year — we spend a lot of money on a lot of different things to try to improve our life.
And if I had to go back and redo last year, I would have invested in coaching sooner.”
