Life Coaching and Infertility
An excerpt from an interview with Superhero Andrea Scher by jen lemen.
jen lemen – “I think in some circles there’s still this idea out there that life coaches are all fluff and positive thinking, telling people whatever they want to hear–when in reality coaching is a serious invitation to take a hard look at your life and start taking your strengths and your abilities seriously. I’m curious about the role coaching has played in your life over the last couple of years–especially in those matters (like infertility) where there are no easy answers.”
Andrea Scher – “Coaching saved me while I was going through infertility! Both being coached and becoming a coach. (You do a lot of both when you are training) A great coach is like the best kind of therapist- She is a place to sort out the hurt, to really be in the emotions that you are in (and not run away from them, deny them, or positive think your way through them) and at the same time she speaks to your best self and your most powerful self. She’s not going to let you wallow in the crud for too long. There is a nice balance between processing, taking action, and looking at your entire life and seeing that it is all in balance.”
