Nance L Schick Talks with Aware Now About How to Stay Sane Coaching

Nance Schick · Feb 11, 2021 ·

Good coaching has many benefits, and can actually be life changing. But the nature of the profession can also make it susceptible to burnout and high stress levels for coaches.

How to coaches stay sane and highly functional?

Nance recently contributed to this topic on the Aware Now business blog and talked about the benefits of coaches, having their own coach.

5 Strategies to Stay Sane as a Coach

Strategy #3 – Use Other Coaches

“Another way to stay sane… is to use the very thing you offer to others: coaching. Certified coach Mike Bundrant of iNLP Center advises fellow coaches that “we should walk our own talk and hire a coach! Every life coach should be in coaching as a client. It’s our professional duty to work on ourselves.” Indeed, some clients could take the position that if coaching is so valuable, that there would be something odd about their own coach not taking advantage of this opportunity.

In particular, coaches can provide part of an early warning system for signs of impending burnout, as discussed in the previous section. According to Nance L. Schick, New York City-based conflict resolution coach of Third Ear Conflict Resolution, “nearly every coach I know has a coach. We also have mastermind groups or other accountability partners because we know that our work can be emotionally, energetically, and intellectually draining. We need to have mutually nurturing and supportive relationships, which help to identify burnout in its early stages.”
