Don't get me started on times zones..or technology. In my bid to make scheduling easier I managed to screw up setting up an app that was supposed to. make it easier...but completely failed me. (Or I, it.)
As for saying, I don't know, people who know everything are boooring and they don't ask questions. Case closed.
The "not knowing" yet "delivering value for clients" particularly resonates with me.
When I coach, I find that there is often an interesting story behind why people want to know something.
Exploring "the why" and how "the knowing" would make a difference can add a lot of richness and context. We may not know the answers, but can support the clients to make a plan so they can find the answers they are looking for.
Thank you, Tobi! You've made me realize that if you switch it around – when you get coached – isn't it so much more refreshing when your coach says they're unsure? It's always my preference.
Love all of this, especially the need to get comfortable with acknowledging that you don’t know something. That’s something I now actively seek in colleagues and clients.
Love how you always keep it real!
Thank you Amy!!
Good stuff, Jilllll
Meaningful advise, well written
AWWWW thank you Pops! Love that you found your way here. 🎉

Case closed indeed. I left "scheduling" out of this one but I could write three books on that alone. Hear hear.
Scheduling?! Now I have to go sit in a dark room and calm down as that is the absolute most difficult thing to do these days.
Love your questions and reflections Jill.

I often wonder, how did we not "get" this any earlier? It's so important! Love that you actually seek it out. Excellent.
