This approach can help when someone wants quick, concrete ways to move forward from a problem or a stuck period.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Becky collaborates with each person to choose which approaches fit their goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan based on what is most helpful.
