190: How To Coach Without Fixing


Listen Later

In this episode, Shelby dives deep into one of the most common struggles new nurse coaches face: the fixer reflex. As nurses, we're trained to assess, intervene, and help—but in coaching, that instinct to rescue can actually hinder transformation.

Shelby explores:

  • Why fixing your clients does more harm than good
  • How giving advice too soon steals their breakthrough
  • The subtle (and selfish) ways fixing helps you feel better, not them
  • 3 practical tools to coach powerfully without solving their problems

With stories, real-life examples, and Shelby’s signature blend of truth and heart, this episode is a must-listen for any nurse coach learning to hold space in a deeper, more empowering way.

Transformation happens in the tension—not in your tidy solutions.

Tune in and learn how to stop rescuing and start truly coaching.
