What is Good | Well Coaching?


Good | Well Coaching is a two-way, intentional conversation that gives room for you to clarify your life and/or work intention (your “good”), qualify how you want to improve your performance (defining your “well”), and build a pathway to fully live out your calling both personally and professionally.

The process of coaching is for you and your coach to listen to your life and experience, refine your goals and approaches, and take action to reshape your life based on your discoveries.

Why does coaching work?
“Laura Cootsona is a gem—a rare combination of strategic vision, efficient execution, and deeply rooted convictions. If you have a vision that you need help bringing to life, Laura is the person you want by your side.”
— Alison Cook, PhD Author, Say YES to the Life God has for You!

Why coaching works


Coaching works because it pays attention to you, to sharpen your direction, your values, and your path so that you can be the best version of yourself and live an abundant life.

You may be the mentor, the supervisor, the group leader all day long for others, but lack the ability to provide clarity to yourself. The truth is, even coaches need coaches.

The coach isn’t a magician, but magic happens in the process, nonetheless!

  • Coaching is about you—your goals, your learning, and your growth.

    Coaching is about learning—rather than teaching. You are the expert on your life. Your coach uses techniques such as active listening, open questions, encouragement, provocative questions and goal setting while staying supportive.

    Coaching is about clarity—Often we find ourselves in a muddle: unclear about our wants and desires, inarticulate about how we want to contribute, and unable to find a solid path forward. The goal of coaching is to build clarity, alignment, and direction for your deliberate action.

    Coaching is about action—your action. Each session you will determine 1-3 actions steps you will take before the next session. You may be surprised how quickly you progress toward your goals.

    Coaching is about all of you—not just your work or your relationships. We all know that changing old habits and thought patterns are difficult. Your coach recognizes these patterns and will support you as you change and grow.

Your coach will:

  • Listen.
    Your story is central. Coaches fully engage in what you are saying.

  • Ask questions.
    Coaches use questions to stimulate your thinking and discovery. Questions are about possibilities and the future.

  • Encourage.
    Everyone needs encouragements, and usually we don’t get enough. Your coach will hold up your vision, your progress, and your efforts.

  • Facilitate while letting you lead.
    Coaches facilitate your learning and problem solving. Yet, they are never fully leading—you are, with your agenda and your approach.

How do you know if coaching is right for you?
“Whether one-on-one coaching or facilitating a group, Laura blends candor and empathy, embracing our humanity while inviting you toward positive change to better your lives and community. Many of the most meaningful contributions I have personally made in our community this past decade, got started because of her invitation to come and have a part.”
— Sharon Nichols Founder, Grow Love With Words
