Shameless Leadership

672: 6 Ways to Develop Your Sense of Agency


Listen Later

I spent three days last week in a Trauma-Informed Practice Intensive for Coaches and Leaders. One of the things we kept coming back to over the course of these three days was making sure we, as coaches, are creating spaces that allow our clients a strong sense of agency.  

 

As we dug into this from various angles and examined it through the lens of trauma, I got more and more curious and started doing my own research on the side. I know, super nerd alert. I love geeking out on this stuff.  

 

While I won’t bore you with the super coachy stuff, I do want to share with you the juicy parts - the pieces I know will benefit you right away. 

 

One of the best parts of my job is providing you with tools to see your own power and your own ability to make choices that serve you. I want you to feel confident in your own sense of self and sense of agency that guides your decision-making and action-taking.

 

In this episode I dig into:

  • What is personal agency
  • Why is a sense of agency important
  • What are 6 ways to develop your sense of agency
  •  

    It is my hope that developing your sense of agency will give you clarity and discernment around who you are and who you are becoming.
