One-to-one
06/04/2025



I did my one-to-one as part of my level 2 coursework today and I am exhausted. Tabitha did so well; it was a tough hour for her, but she worked really hard and started to make good progress. I was a little concerned about the change in dynamic but I tried to be coach-y and not dad-y and it felt like it went well.
My feedback from my witness coaches was that I'm too serious. I don't know what to do with this feedback. For one thing, I am extremely focussed on many things that aren't second nature to me right now. I'm going to be serious. But also I feel like the vibe of a one-to-one session should be more serious. I've never done one before but if I booked a one-to-one and the coach wasn't serious I think I'd be annoyed.
I dunno. I'm not planning to do them so it's not a huge deal, but I'm a serious person most of the time, especially when I'm concentrating. It's so difficult to do anything with that feedback and I'm ruminating on it I guess. I still feel like a huge interloper here which isn't helping. I'm so bad at studying; why did I agree to this.
I made pizza today and the dough was dreadful. Only difference was the flour I used. I'm just going to get a bag of the fancy Canadian stone-ground again. That flour was the best. I have a flour preference.
