In this bonus episode of the Coaching Q&A Series, I’m answering a key question: “Is coaching just giving advice?” This mini-series is designed to clear up common misconceptions about coaching and offer clarity on how it differs from therapy or consulting.
Drawing from my experience as a coach, I explain why coaching is about self-reflection, advocacy, and taking actionable steps—rather than simply being told what to do. Whether you’re considering working with a coach or curious about the process, this episode will give you a better understanding of what coaching truly offers.
