Coaching with Clarity
This week’s guest is Lee Chaix McDonough.
Lee Chaix McDonough is the founder of Coach With Clarity, a training and educational company for life and business coaches. As an ICF-certified business coach, she is a firm believer in the importance of education and certification in coaching. Lee shares how to choose the right coaching program and tips for budgeting time.
Lee’s #1 best-selling book, ACT on Your Business, provides a deep dive into the three M’s: meaning, mindset, and mindfulness. They involve getting clear on your values, understanding how you relate to your thoughts and emotions, and grounding yourself in the present moment so you can fully experience what's going on in your life. She selected these elements from a therapeutic approach called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and created a framework to use in coaching.
Lee recommends that coaches budget around six months of their time to work on certification. The financial investment to get certification depends on the program you choose.
