The following is an excerpt of an actual transaction between David and a client in Top Coaching Techniques.

David: It’s a great cycle too. It’s like a lot of things in life, which you’ll notice as you coach. When you’re not feeling well or not happy in yourself, then you start eating worse foods. You want more chocolate – more this and that to reward yourself – and then you make yourself feel even worse. It’s a great cycle, perpetuating. Similarly, there is a positive cycle, right? If you eat healthier foods, you start feeling better about your life, so you’ll want healthier foods. You can have whichever cycle you like. Which one would you like?

Client: I want the one that is easier on myself. This chaos is just crazy and I’m tired of it. Healthy eating is one thing I battle with big time. Mentally, I battle with healthy foods.

David: It’s funny that they’re all linked.
