Intentionally think of 2 possible humorous situations to share with coachee prior to meeting. 

Ask coachee if they had anything humorous occur.  

Perhaps a meme or tik tok reel that made me laugh.

Start meeting with a “check in” where are you at this moment?

Any challenges you want to share that is making tasks not attainable.

Using icebreakers

Provide resources that are timely and relevant
