Every day, we make choices—about who we are, how we show up, and what possibilities we step into or close off. In coaching, these choices are often shaped by four influences: limiting beliefs, saboteurs, assumptions, and perspectives.
Think of each as a doorway. They’re related, but not identical. One might look locked, another barges open, a third is fogged, and the last keeps revolving. Each leads the coaching conversation down a different path of meaning and possibility. The artistry is in noticing which threshold you and your client are crossing—and remembering that whatever the entry, it all comes back to choice.
