117. How to Hire a Coach

If you want to compete in the coaching industry, you need to be GOOD at coaching. 

But there are some things you simply couldn’t know when you were training to be a coach - and while it’s tempting to keep studying, take another course, or dive into a certification program, you really need to build the practical skills and confidence to handle whatever your clients throw at you. 

Each week life coach Lindsay Dotzlaf shares stories, tips and advice to continually develop your skills as a coach. She knows what it’s like to feel overwhelmed and anxious about coaching in the moment, and will teach you why shifting your mindset around your own abilities as a coach will make all the difference.

If you’ve got clients but want to become the absolute best coach you can be, you’ll find answers, advice and support here. Learn more at lindsaydotzlafcoaching.com!

189. How to Get Your Genius Out into the World

When big emotions come up for us, we often tell ourselves something along the lines of, “I don’t have time for this,” especially if it happens out in public or around other people. It might present as heaviness or tightness in your chest, a catching in your throat, or that feeling that you’ll cry if someone just glances your way. The truth is the emotion will bubble up and spill over into your life if you don’t address it, and that’s why I’m guiding you through this process today.   Learn what processing emotions means, and how practicing it creates self-awareness, self-trust, and self-safety. I’m showing you what processing emotions might look like in real time, my favorite, simplest way to process my emotions, and how you can help your clients navigate their big emotions.    Get full show notes and more information here: https://www.lindsaydotzlafcoaching.com/188
