I am a Guide.
After working in the movement and fitness/ performance fields I no longer consider myself a coach.
It’s been a very natural and pleasant transition.
The idea that a guide is different than a coach is based on the idea that a guide empowers a person to be responsible for their own success, while a coach is responsible for the success of their athlete or mover.
I love to provide pathways and alternative routes. But I’m no longer willing to count steps or require or seek accountability. That’s on the mover, the athlete.
I’ll make sure they have a beautiful journey. But the action is all theirs.
