Listen "When Do You Need Support EP 18"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome back to the Conscious Edge! I’m Alecia St. Germain, and today, I’m flying solo to tackle a question I often get: “When should I get a coach? Do I need a coach, or do I need something else?” If you've been considering hiring outside help for your business, what I like to call "CEO support," this episode is for you.
Here are the key takeaways from this episode:
Understanding Support Roles: Find out the difference between consultants, coaches, and mentors, highlighting their unique contributions to business growth.
Consultants & Strategists: The best option if you need a roadmap and advice for specific business goals but require you to implement their plans. Think strategies and tactics.
Coaches: A good coach will help you focus on unlocking your potential and help you overcome mindset challenges, regardless of your industry.
Mentors: Have walked your path and offer insights based on their experiences, but it’s crucial to choose a mentor whose values align with yours.
When to Seek a Coach: If you’re struggling with procrastination, perfectionism, or self-doubt despite having strategies in place, it might be time to find a coach specializing in mindset work.
Empowerment in Decision Making: Encourages taking responsibility for your journey and selecting the right kind of support for your unique needs.
