The following is an excerpt of one of David’s coaching sessions in Top Coaching Techniques.

Client: I just felt like driving. I thought I could just keep driving, and driving, and driving.

David: Right.

Client: No worry about where I’m driving to, just keep driving.

David: Well you’re allowed to do that. Now you put something down near the bottom of the form, where you said, ‘I want to find ways of loving me and nurturing me.’

Client: Yeah.

David: Now I think that you’re doing that. I think that’s exactly where you are. I set up a context or a perspective for this call before we spoke, and the context that I created was healing and nurturing. I think you’re doing that. When you go to a therapist, you are loving yourself. You’re saying, ‘I’m worth taking care of.’ When you go to a financial planner, knowing that finances is something that’s bothering you, you are loving yourself and you’re taking care of yourself.
