PROMPTS

What happens when you subscribe TO Everyday Jack?

You can start a coaching session just as soon as you sign up. But how do you start a session? It’s easy—just talk to Everyday Jack like you would with any trusted partner.

Here are some ideas for getting started:

  • Tell Jack about the context of your question or situation

  • Let Jack know where you feel stuck or uncertain

  • Ask Jack what you want to achieve in the coaching session—a pathway forward, options to consider, or specific approaches to practice.

As you and Jack work together you can ask follow-ups, request new options, or seek clarification. You can add more context or propose “what-if” scenarios. You can start your coaching sessions any time you want, and for as long or short as you want. You can even save sessions and upload attachments for your sessions.
