Where You Are

Not your title. Who you've become.

How would you describe where you are in your career right now — not your title, but the kind of professional you've become?

What you stand for. What you've built. How you feel about where you've landed.

What parts of your work consistently give you energy? What consistently drains you?

Specific tasks, relationships, types of problems. Not broad categories.

Your ambition, made concrete.

In 3–5 years, what does a version of you that's truly thriving look like?

What you're doing. How you're showing up. What's different about how you feel about your work.

What's the gap between where you are now and that version of yourself?

Skills, mindset, circumstances, choices. Be honest.

The honest self-assessment.

What are you tolerating, avoiding, or quietly outgrowing that you haven't addressed?

A role, a relationship, a habit, a belief. Something you've accepted as fixed.

What patterns do you notice in yourself that have held you back?

Habits of thinking, how you respond under pressure, tendencies that show up across different contexts.

How you'll know this worked.

What would tell you that coaching has been worth it — not just professionally, but in how you feel about yourself and your work?

Go beyond outcomes. What would be different about how you think, decide, or carry yourself?
