Many new coaches get tripped up on the idea of how they help people and how they figure out what they want. Mo Chanmugham, one of our amazing coaches here at HTYC, joins us to break down how new coaches can help people start figuring out what they want and how you can begin figuring this out for yourself in your coaching journey.

It’s not like you have to progress to the 3rd stage or that you are less successful at the first stage, but you do need to understand what they are and which stage you’re in.
You also need to decide what stage you want to be in (if you’re not already there).
