How To Elevate Your Coaching Practice Without Leaving Your Day Job

Welcome to another episode of Essentially You, the podcast dedicated to helping coaches and coaching leaders bring the excellence out of themselves and the teams they lead. In this episode, your host Mark Mathiak, challenges the misconceptions surrounding the professionalization of coaching and shares valuable insights about what it means to be a pro coach.

Becoming a pro coach doesn’t require one to abandon their day job. Climbing to the next level of your coaching career involves clearing up the common myths around the subject, regardless of what your current career is. In this discussion, Mark explores how coaching can be a robust and fulfilling process that helps individuals and teams achieve remarkable results and drive business success.

According to Mark, the path to becoming a pro coach is not necessarily about certification and business acumen, but about loving and understanding people. It's about guiding others to reach their full potential, not giving business advice. To excel in this role, a pro coach needs to develop a deeper comprehension of human motivation and the brain’s working process.
