I really appreciate the nuance of this, and your ability to look at both: the strategy, AND the mindset. Often, both coaches and clients of coaches only look at one over the other. But, often, real shifts happen when we look at both in a holistic way. OF COURSE, someone who's following a misaligned strategy (love the recipe analogy) will end up distraught. Vice versa, a fully aligned strategy won't work for someone who has a deep self-worth wound.
You nailed it with your assessment of "trusting the process". Just because it worked for someone, it won't work for everyone, and it's dangerously Pollyannaish to assume it will.

That's a very good point, Dina-Marie. You do need both an aligned strategy and the right mindset. Thank you for adding that point to the conversation!

It made me cringe! Especially when people who clearly weren't right for the program were in it.
