""What would you have to let go of in order to be, do, or have the thing that you want?.
This is something I work on with clients A LOT.
Particularly in friendships between women, we have an automatic tendency to affirm FIRST and ask questions later.
However, I would suggest that the perfect friendship is one where there is balance: you gotta' be CHALLENGED as well as cherished!
That being said: people can receive being challenged best...when they feel safe.
So, I find the best way to challenge MY loved ones (while cherishing them) is to ask questions that empower them to look at things from new perspectives.
Here's one of my favorite questions to ask a private coaching clients who has identified something in their life that they want to change:
""What would you have to let go of in order to be, do, or have the thing that you want"?.
You'll be surprised how insightful and creative people get when they sit with this question!
So, Is there anything in your life you have to let of in order to be, do, or have the thing that you want?

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
