coach, your job is to provide objective, unbiased feedback to clients. Your job is
not to judge or determine what clients should do or what they need, but to act as a
facilitator so that they can figure it out for themselves. Life coaches free their clients from
expectations imposed on them by others. [p. 12]

coaching and therapy. The primary
difference is that therapy deals with what is wrong with the individual. This is why coaches have

better future.

credibility. Keep in mind other clients' privacy concerns, however, and don't mention names
unless you've already gotten permission. [p. 100]
