Coach Approach Ministries
Our Mission is to Express and Expand the Kingdom of God through Coaching.
There’s only one way to get experience: get experience.
Early in her coaching journey, LC Etheridge had a mentor give her some simple advice: if you want to become a better coach, you have to coach.
Training gives us a foundation. Coaches help us see what we can’t yet see. Feedback helps us improve.
And then we have to put it into practice.
LC talks about the mental shift she made early on: getting out there, coaching as much as possible, and then continuing to study what happened and learn from it.
After 12,000 hours of coaching, she has a lot of experience to draw from.
Join us for the FREE webinar

How is your vision of your future changing as time goes by? How can you "rightsize" your next step?
"I want a clear vision and a clear strategy. I want successors who value the vision, understand the strategy, and have the competence to carry it. I want people around me to become mature and resilient leaders. I want to write more, mentor more, and continue doing work that matters.
I am still ambitious.
What I'm increasingly willing to let go of is the goal of becoming known as impressive."
I Imagined It As Bigger - Coach Approach Ministries The problem may not have been that my vision was too big. The problem was that I assumed a big vision required a big goal.

What if becoming your best doesn’t mean becoming more independent?
In this clip, LC Etheridge, MCC, reflects on something she began noticing in the world of personal development: so much of the focus is on what you can become on your own.
Yet real growth doesn’t happen in isolation.
We are shaped through relationship, community, and the people around us. As LC puts it, we can be amazing in an interdependent way, not an independent way.
That kind of perspective comes from a lot of years of learning, coaching, and paying attention.

You can't go back and redo a missed opportunity. Instead, you must decide to learn from it.
You can also learn from others' missed opportunities, which is why Brian Miller shares from his heart the lesson he learned just this week.
