The first session in a coaching relationship is the foundation for success. It’s where trust is built, values and vision are clarified, and actionable goals are set. In this episode, we explore why this initial meeting is more than a simple introduction, it’s a blueprint for meaningful change. Drawing on the VISION framework, we’ll guide you through the step-by-step process of creating a collaborative and empowering session that helps clients align their values with actionable goals.
We’ll discuss the importance of building rapport, using tools like motivational interviewing (OARS), and the power of aligning goals with intrinsic motivations. Packed with practical examples and research insights, this episode demonstrates how the right approach in a first session can spark motivation, build momentum, and set the stage for sustainable growth. Whether you're a seasoned coach or just starting out, tune in to learn how to transform the first session into a powerful catalyst for change.
