Looking back through my reflective journal, I spotted an entry about a client who had come to coaching at the request of someone else, so perhaps a little reluctantly.  However, by the end of the session, they told me that being offered this coaching opportunity had “taken away the thought that I’m just a number.”  They said it had taken 6 years of being in their role to make them feel like this:

 

“I now feel I’m someone, not just 4 digits.”

 

Sometimes, being a coach is very humbling.
