Have you ever had a coaching conversation with a client where you uncover the real issue?
Did you find that the real issue had absolutely nothing to do with what was presented when the conversation started?
Those coaching conversations and breakthroughs are my favorite because we have uncovered something truly deep in the client’s blindspot.
Let me share with you an example of one of these conversations for you to listen to so you know what I mean - click here to listen.
In the conversation, we uncover the real issue is actually Letting go of the need to control.
Notice, where the coaching conversation starts and where it ends…
In the episode, you will hear that Tracey loves motivating people but, as you will hear in the show, her fear of failure is holding her back.
She is ‘protecting’ herself from failing, and that has made Tracey stagnant instead of working towards her goals. I challenge her to unravel that existing fear and have her realize that she doesn’t need to control all areas of her life - which is a BIG breakthrough for her.
In this episode, you will hear:
Why you need to get over of your past hurt
Move on and stop controlling things you can’t control
Coping with redundancy
The importance of sharing experiences
How to heal your emotional trauma
Pauses and silences have been left in this conversation purposefully; within high-performing coaching sessions, the magic is often in the silence!
And there is a powerful moment when Tracy goes back to a memory of her childhood to uncover where her confidence of not being able to do things alone comes from.
Understanding this is a BIG breakthrough moment for Tracy, who can then make a plan of next steps with this new understanding of herself.
Notice, as well, how Tracey creates an action plan, therefore taking ownership of the next steps in her own journey…
