Ever feel like September brings more of a fresh start than January? In this episode of The Coaching Hub Podcast, I explore the power of “new beginnings” in the coaching process. Why clients are drawn to change at this time of year, and how coaches can harness this energy to guide meaningful transformation. I’ll be sharing my favourite techniques for helping clients visualise success, set intentional goals, and establish the routines and rituals that sustain progress beyond the initial excitement of a fresh start.
This is a practical, inspiring episode for any coach or client looking to reset and make the most of a fresh start, no matter when it arrives.
Here are the Highlights:
00:00 Introduction: September as a “true” new year
01:08 Why clients seek coaching during transitions
02:15 The importance of individualised coaching
04:00 Visualisation, vision boarding, and ways to connect with future goals
04:56 Goal-setting: Navigating individuals’ preferences and working with both the “what” and “who”
06:32 Supporting routines, flow state, and energizing habits
07:59 Helping clients step into decision-making and their “A-game”
09:32 Aligning routines and rituals to seasons
11:10 Helping clients (and yourself!) reset after a break and cultivate long-term success
