TRANSCRIPT

Well, hi friend. I am so happy you're here joining me for another episode of the Coach with Clarity podcast. My name is Lee Chaix McDonough and I have a really fun episode in store for you. 

Now if you've been listening to the podcast for a while, and especially if you listened to our Getting Started series, you know that we have spent a lot of time talking about what kind of coach you want to be the type of coaching you want to provide, and who you want to serve as a coach. So we've spent a lot of time exploring your coaching niche and how you can really connect with your ideal client. 

Now if you haven't checked out the Getting Started series yet, I highly recommend doing so it runs about episodes three through 13 in the podcast, so you can just head to https://www.coachwithclarity.com/podcast, click on the Getting Started topic on the right side of the page, and it'll pull up all of the episodes that you're going to want to check out. 

But today, we're going to approach coaching from a slightly different perspective, and rather than looking at these questions of what you do, I want to look at it through the lens of who you are. I suspect part of the reason you are interested in coaching is because it feels like a natural extension of how you see the world and how you want to work with others.

So today, we are going to take some time to examine what I see as the five primary coaching styles, and if you've taken my coaching quiz, then you may already be familiar with this framework. In fact, you may even know which coaching style resonates most with you.
