Byron Katie
Mindset coaching, inquiry-based coaching
Many coaching conversations stall on unexamined beliefs. Byron Katie's The Work offers a spare set of questions that help people test stressful thoughts and recover choice — which is why coaches keep pointing clients to the method even when they are not Katie specialists.
The public materials around The Work emphasise curiosity over argument: is it true, can you absolutely know, how do you react when you believe the thought, and who would you be without it. That structure travels well into coaching when a client is fused with a story about a boss, partner, or identity.
For TrueCoach readers comparing mindset or inquiry-based coaches, the useful takeaway is methodological clarity. Inquiry is not positivity theatre; it is a disciplined look at the thoughts that create suffering.
