Coaching Resource: Encouragement Scriptures to Share with your Clients

Over the years of coaching faith-based clients in their healthy-living journey, I found that sharing a simple encouragement Scripture with them was a great way to reinforce their morale and growth! Sometimes I would share these live, on our calls, but always in the follow-up email I send them later.

Here is a list you are welcome to use as a tool with your own clients….just copy and paste this into a Google Doc and you’ll have a ready-resource to add Spiritual value to your coaching! Choose the Scriptures with the help of that Holy Spirit nudge leading you! I also always considered what my client was currently walking through and would truly benefit from as I chose one to share.
