In this episode of The Coaching Studio, Lyssa deHart engages in a thought-provoking conversation with Elias Scultori, MCC, an experienced coach with a passion for leadership development and fostering transformation. Elias shares his inspiring journey from a church musician in Brazil to becoming an MCC coach, emphasizing how his lifelong values of connection, growth, and creating space shaped his coaching philosophy. Together, they explore the importance of presence, listening, and the courage to embrace the unknown in coaching.

Elias discusses the core distinction between transactional and transformational coaching, highlighting the deeper impact that comes when coaches support clients in uncovering underlying patterns rather than merely addressing surface-level challenges. The conversation touches on key coaching competencies, particularly the role of presence, and how they become second nature when internalized properly. Lyssa and Elias also examine the importance of humility and courage in creating space for clients, encouraging coaches to stay committed to their own self-development through reflective practices, mentor coaching, and supervision.

Listeners will gain valuable insights into the balance between structure and flow in coaching, the role of curiosity, and the ongoing nature of professional growth. Elias leaves us with a compelling reminder: coaching is a human-to-human experience, and its true power lies in creating a space for clients to be fully seen and heard. Join us for this enriching conversation that will inspire coaches at any stage of their journey.
