The Real Reason People Don’t Start Coaching (and How You Can Fix It)

The Real Reason People Don’t Start Coaching (and How You Can Fix It)

by Rebecca Lockwood | Nov 21, 2025 | #AskRebecca, Coaching

Don’t agree with these three words. Ask a question Don’t agree with these three words. Ask a question instead. 👇 When someone says “always”, “can’t” or “should”, they’ve usually turned one moment into a rule. One gentle question can loosen it: 🔁 Always / never → “Has there ever been a time you didn’t?” 🧱 Can’t → “What’s stopping you?” 📏 Should → “Says who?” Be curious, not clever. And try it on your own self-talk first, that’s where it gets really interesting. Which one do you catch yourself saying most? Comment “NLPYES” for details of my NLP Practitioner & Breakthrough Coaching course. My next cohort starts 23rd October. #NLP #NLPpractitioner #coachingquestions #mindsetcoach #selftalk

I once turned up to a coaching session with a clip I once turned up to a coaching session with a clipboard, a checklist, a pen and a printed manual. I was so ready to use my favourite NLP technique. I never used it. Because by the time I got the clipboard out, the limiting belief she'd walked in with had gone. All I'd done for the session was ask questions — lots of them — until I really understood why her problem was a problem, from her point of view. That's the Meta Model. And honestly? When I was training, I found the language stuff boring. I just wanted the techniques. I had no idea the questions would end up doing more of the heavy lifting. Swipe through for the questions I use most — with clients, with friends, and with my own kids. "They don't like me." → How do you know? "No one cares." → No one? "It's better." → Better than what? Save it for your next conversation. And if you want to learn this properly — with practice, not just theory — DM me "NLPYES" and I'll send you the details of my NLP Practitioner & Breakthrough Coaching course. #NLP #NLPpractitioner #NLPcoach #metamodel #coachtraining #lifecoach #breakthroughcoaching #coachingquestions #coachingtips #communicationskills
