As I’ve been taking applications for Master Coach Training, I’ve been hearing from more than a few coaches (many of whom I love and adore), who are questioning their coaching path (and whether or not to continue. I’ve experienced much of what you have, more times than you might believe and I’ve got a message for you.

Dear Coach who wants to quit,

I understand how you feel.

Disheartened, discouraged, tired, maybe you’re just ready for a little reprieve.

I’ve been hearing from so many of you telling me that you’re really at a decision point as to whether you continue this coaching journey or not.

Many of you, I know. I see you - the go-getter who did all the things to succeed, only to encounter coaches and businesses who were unethical, less than honest, maybe even downright damaging to your psyche.

I see you - the hopeful enthusiast - you never let a doubt stop you from going after it! And yet, overtime, the major shifts in the Life Coach School community and the coaching industry have left you doing something you never wanted to do - questioning your path.

I see you - the heart-driven coach who is struggling to charge for your coaching. You’ve tried everything you know to do - thought work, emotion work, “pushing past fear,” and yet, you find yourself stuck in the rut, wondering if it will ever get better.

I see you, and I have a message for you today.

You came into this coaching path for a reason. I don’t know the reason and I won’t pretend that I do. Maybe it was for the impactful lessons you would learn. Perhaps it was a phase that taught you to hold to your priorities and values, no matter what was going on around you.

And for some of you, it may be that this path is meant for you now and forever and this is a moment in time that you will lean into that purpose.

I’ve wanted to quit more times than I can count. Failed launches, unethical coaching practices that made me cringe. Life circumstances that challenged me to my core and caused me to question everything about myself and my ability.

And as I look back on the worst of times within all of this, I’m thankful for the gifted coaches who have carried me through and (most importantly), helped me build the muscles that I needed to stay strong and grounded, no matter what.

Because of this, I won’t quit on the coaching industry. The work we have to do here is way too important and, personally, I know I am meant to be here.

If (and only if) this resonates with you, give yourself some time to pause within your doubt and confusion. Journal, meditate, pray, or connect with nature to access that knowing within you.

I don’t know the answer for you, but I do know that your purpose is great and YOU will know.

Please don’t allow bad coaching, unethical practices, or anything else you’ve experienced at the hand of others to keep you from following the course in life that is meant for you.

Believe in your gifts and abilities. Trust your path. Be courageous enough to look within to find the answer you’re seeking.

Much love to you!
