Cage your advice monster with the GROW model

Stealing this one from my friend Aaron (who happens to be a coach):

Instead of giving advice, use the GROW model. GROW is a coaching model that breaks problem solving into four prompts:

Goal: What do you want?

Reality: Where are you now?

Options (or Obstacles): What could you do / what is standing in the way?

Will (or Way forward): What will you do?

Because remember, giving advice is a last resort.
