Human potential is a journey…
On the first stretch of this journey, we can be shown the way. This guidance can be found in books, mentoring, advising, counseling, or anytime we need to look to others for the answers that will guide us to a new understanding. Yet, there is a time in our life when the answers provided to us may become the very box of our limitation. In this moment, we realize we are at a crossroads; to continue the way we've been shown or to pave the remainder of our life through our own wisdom. To truly reach our human potential, one must journey beyond the walls of external provision and begin to journey among the answers embedded within. The second stretch of this journey is accessed from going within to explore the depths of the wisdom embedded within the heart of knowing. To support our client’s second journey and masterfully coach we must show up as a completely neutral vessel to hold a potentiated space for our client’s unfolding. As a coach, we are the lantern to the client's true Essence, to the seeds of potential embedded within aching to be born. We are the Sherpa's journeying with our clients to their unique personal apex. What is their truth? What is their wisdom? What jewels are buried within their heart? What gifts are hidden within? In masterful coaching we must sit in the unknowing to be of service to the client’s knowing. ________________ Laurel Elders, PCC, CEC is the founder and CEO of the ICF Accredited, Institute for Integrative Coach Training (IICT), headquartered in Tucson, AZ.
