Change can be quick and simple. Feeling anxious when talking to a team or giving a speech? This typically takes just a few sessions to resolve, and most people can do this on their own, can do perfectly fine without coaching or therapy if they invest enough time and commitment.
Please be mindful though, that every change within your complex inner workings will have consequences. Your mind is not like a clockwork where a turn of a cogwheel produces clear results. It’s more like a convoluted, steaming - and wonderful - heap of spaghetti. When you move one noodle, you’re bound to move others as well, and they behave unpredictably. If you change parts of your behaviour, then other parts of your self might be surprised or confused. These unexpected changes can happen on the inside as well as on the outside. When your boss notices your new skills, you might get promoted, which in turn could create new opportunities or problems.
There are some simple tips to handle these effects when you’re working without a coach: don't overdo it, BE PATIENT and observe closely. Change only one behaviour at a time. Then, even and especially if you’re super, super happy and excited with the results, wait for a couple of days, or even better a couple of weeks, and closely observe how other parts of yourself are adapting to the change. It’s also helpful to write a change log and keep it up to date with your observations.
